In this week's Kratom Stories podcast, Madalyn welcomes back Jennifer Gillis for a powerful and insightful conversation. Jennifer, originally featured in episode three, shares her transformative journey using Kratom to alleviate the chronic pain stemming from transverse myelitis. Diagnosed in 2005, Jennifer's life was drastically altered by her condition causing her to suffer from constant pain and rely on alcohol as a coping mechanism.

Jennifer's story is a moving testament to Kratom's potential to enhance lives, inspiring listeners to explore its possibilities and actively participate in responsible advocacy.

This episode also tackles crucial issues within the Kratom community. Madalyn and Jennifer discuss the importance of accurate information in the face of widespread misinformation, focusing on the dangers of unregulated extracts and the rise of 7OH products, which are often misrepresented and dangerously mismarketed. They highlight the concerns raised by leading Kratom researchers regarding these products and underscore the need for responsible consumption and consumer education. Hear Jennifer share practical advice for starting a Kratom journey and discover how you can become a part of the growing community of responsible Kratom advocates. Learn how you can share your story and become involved in this important effort for access to this life-changing plant.
