失去视力，我也能做出一杯完美手冲

韦琳 & 林欣

韦琳因为青光眼失明，但她从未放弃对独立生活的追求。在一次机会中，她遇见了林欣——当时正在公益领域深耕的她。两人迅速成为彼此生命中不可或缺的存在。在这场双人演讲中，她们讲述了共同走过的故事，也让我们看见，只要有合适的支持与坚持不懈的努力，任何梦想都有可能实现。

林欣是“手心咖啡”与“独居老人艺术疗愈力提升”项目的负责人，致力于残障群体的创新型就业与老年人的精神陪伴。她相信每个人都拥有独特的能力与价值，也愿意用创意实践推动社会融合与永续发展。

韦琳是一位视障者，曾梦想拥有一家属于自己的咖啡馆和一只导盲犬。如今，她是“手心咖啡”的店长，也是中国首批获得 SCA（精品咖啡协会）认证的视障咖啡师之一。她也终于拥有了属于自己的导盲犬 Alan。韦琳的故事，是无数残障群体中可能性与希望的真实缩影。
