I have a convo today with one of my favorite people in the world, Chekesha Lakenya Ellis. She is a fellow advocate and someone who is in recovery. Her story is incredibly unique with a lot of layers to it. Her addiction to prescription opioids actually resulted in her losing her hearing and she became deaf for years until she was able to get cochlear implants. She is an inspiration to me, her charisma is contagious, and I really hope you enjoy listening to her story.
