hi hello hey, what’s sleek, stylish, and essential for getting around? That’s right—our white canes!
This week, we’re coming in hot with some fresh cane reviews. We recently bought new ones, and we’ve got opinions. From different cane styles to the benefits of using them, we’re spilling all the tea, hot takes included.
We’ve talked about white canes in past episodes, comparing them to guide dogs or discussing our love/hate relationship with them. Today, we’re diving even deeper and talking about our brand new babies. Whether you’re a cane user or just curious, tune in to hear why we love them, and how they play such an important role in our independence and confidence.
