Many of us take the simple things for granted, like walking in the park, spending time with family, and driving to work each day. Here’s the story of an Alabama Power employee who’s living – and working – against the odds.

Executive producer Joseph Allen, along with producer Lynn Sampson and cinematographer Russell Shavers, introduce us to Carla Davis, who was born blind.

Carla is one of many people who overcome the odds each day by leading productive lives, in spite of a disability. Hear her inspiring story and see why she chooses to focus on her “ability.”

For those who are visually impaired, try this version of her story below.
