I think I spent years in that state of just wanting to push all of this as far away from myself. When I had moved back to the States and the subpoena was happening, it really caused this huge relapse for me. And so I think that buildup was exhausting and very trying. But also maybe a good thing because I was really forced to just sit with myself and really process and develop a better coping system for the things that happened to me.
Hi Slight Changers — this past Friday, Elizabeth Holmes, the founder and CEO of the fraudulent biotech company Theranos was sentenced to 11.25 years in a Federal prison. I wanted to reshare my interview with Erika Cheung today. She had the courage to stand up for what was right and blow the whistle, even when her personal safety was at risk. Erika was instrumental in bringing Holmes to justice.
