A Disability Doesn't Define You + Lessons in Growth After a Spinal Cord Injury with Jesi Stracham
Jesi Stracham was in a motor cycle accident over a decade ago causing a spinal cord injury that left her paralyzed and using a wheelchair. And she refused to let that disability define her by society's standards- she continues to redefine living with limitations and it is truly remarkable.
In this episode, Jesi and I dive deep into her journey living with a spinal cord injury; from finding God the night before her accident , why she believes it's important for wheelchair users to take care of themselves emotionally, physically and spiritually and how that has a SIGNIFICANT impact on your independence, how she uses holistic recovery therapies to heal her body, what it's like to author a book where she can unapologetically herself, and how working through her own BS and empowering herself to be better led her to find a loving relationship she never dreamed possible.
She is a HUGE advocate of mental health and shares mental health tips for people who are learning to live with a disability, why it's necessary to communicate with your support system during healing, and so much more.
This woman blows me away by her transparency on this journey and how authentically she shares the ups and downs of life with a disability on her social channels. In fact, she discovered by sharing a Youtube video having a meltdown on the floor in a hotel room where she was struggling with her disability just how powerful her voice is in this world. This moment changed everything.
Being able to sit with Jesi and share our struggles together and how we've overcome these situations and chosen to pivot and empower ourselves was something I didn't know my soul needed. Jesi is a HUGE inspiration to me, and I know will be for all of you.
Jesi Stracham is a soon to be author of her memoir Roll With Me, releasing in November 2025, and is a speaker, entrepreneur and advocate of transforming lives. She is the cofounder of Freedom Longevity + Wellness LKN, a co-developer of Wheel With me Adapt Fit, an adaptive fitness app for wheelchair users and she has an INCREDIBLY inspiring social media platform where she shares the raw and real truths of her healing journey.
