“I Am More Than My Scars” — Kechi Okwuchi on Faith, Healing & Survival After the Sosoliso Plane Crash

In this deeply moving episode of How Did You Get Here with Verastic, I sit down with Kechi Okwuchi — one of only two survivors of the tragic Sosoliso plane crash of 2005.

Kechi’s story is one of unimaginable pain, miraculous survival, and powerful transformation. From surviving burns over 65% of her body to undergoing more than 100 surgeries, from competing on America’s Got Talent to becoming a motivational speaker and author of More Than My Scars, Kechi’s life is a testament to faith, resilience, and purpose.

We talk about her recovery journey, the strength of her mother’s love, her unshakable faith in God, and how she decided that her scars would tell a story — but never define her.

If you’ve ever faced loss, pain, or seasons of doubt, this conversation will remind you that there is life — and light — after trauma.
