Ask the Coach!
December 2025
My name is Donna Jodhan and I am using my extensive experience as a sight loss coach as well as my lived experience to share and respond to questions that are submitted to me and I also invite you to share your thoughts on questions asked.
For this month: a question from Carina in Boston Massachusetts.
Carina is looking for a good way to keep her kitchen counters uncluttered.
My response:
Carina, Here is how I do my best to keep mine uncluttered.
I only have those things on my counter that I use regularly.
That is what I use almost every day.
If I only use it maybe once weekly then I don’t keep it on my kitchen counter.
I keep my kitchen counter clear for me to do such things as cut vegetables, marinate my meat, and then I have a spice rack.
There is enough room for me to maneuver plates and bowls and then I have my kettle and spice rack.
Does anyone have any other suggestions?

A question from Kevin in Saint Lewis Missouri.
Kevin wants to know the difference between ointment and cream
My response:
Kevin, ointment is usually much thicker than cream.
However, ointment and cream can usually come in tubes or jars.

A question from Heather in Edingborough Scotland.
Heather would like to know what are some of the main things to look for in a hotel room.
My response:
Heather, this is what I normally search for.
Location of outlets, where is the television located, light switches, the bathroom and its contents, the shower, and all of the smampoo, body wash, and things on the sink.
As someone who is vision impaired, it is important for me to locate these things.
I also look for the clothes closet, bed, and night table and phone.
