- After being diagnosed with Neuromyelitis optica, Christine Ha began to lose her vision and is now blind. She knows what it feels like to be an "other", and has the stories (from funny to embarrassing) to back it up. In this talk, Christine explores her journey with otherness, and three methods anyone can use for effectively harnessing its power: connecting with those like you, connecting with those unlike you, and self-compassion. Christine Ha is the first-ever blind contestant and season 3 winner of the competitive amateur cooking television show, “MasterChef” U.S., on FOX with Gordon Ramsay. She defeated over 30,000 home cooks across America to secure the coveted MasterChef title, a $250,000 cash prize, and a cookbook deal.
Christine also has a Master of Fine Arts from University of Houston’s nationally acclaimed Creative Writing Program. During her time there, she served as Fiction Editor for Gulf Coast: A Journal of Literature and Fine Arts. She is currently working on her memoir and second cookbook.
Christine’s first cookbook, Recipes From My Home Kitchen: Asian and American Comfort Food (Rodale, 2013), was a New York Times best-seller. She has been featured on NPR, the BBC, and CNN International, and travels around the globe to give keynote addresses and TEDx talks. Christine has also served as a culinary envoy on behalf of the American Embassy as part of cultural diplomacy programs in Jordan, Serbia, Bosnia/Herzegovina, and Croatia. She was a co-host on the Canadian cooking show, “Four Senses” on AMI, and a judge on “MasterChef” Vietnam on VTV3.
Christine received the 2014 Helen Keller Personal Achievement Award from the American Foundation for the Blind, a recognition formerly bestowed upon Ray Charles, Patty Duke, and Stevie Wonder among others. Christine currently resides in Houston, Texas, with her husband and two dogs. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.

Christine is so amazing, I can relate to the feeling of otherness so much, learning to survive in the society can ne so hard and embarassing even, she gives so much helpfull advice
Awesome talk, Christine!
amazing story of perseverance. a role model
Christine Ha is an amazing woman. Filled with purity, and strength. I can't imagine what it'll be like to be blind, let alone being out in the world unable to see. Christine defies all odds, and doubts. When I saw the masterpieces she created on MasterChef, I was blown away and inspired and left wondering if she was blind because her able body contestants couldn't match her. She made me realise not all things are impossible. We just have to try, learn and grow. She turned a disadvantage into an advantage, that's the one lesson I learned from her. Nothing is a disadvantage, you have to make something of your situation.
All the best to you all in 2022. Look after yourself and one another. We're here on this planet together.
:)
I like her in every way..
Beautiful
My friend could not understand why the person in front of her wasn’t moving when she asked it to. It was a manikin. And she was using her cane. So no worries!
Waste of time
Not at all, her talk is informative.
Your life's waste of time. As a man you are, shut up & try to earn a net worth as good as hers lol.
