Show Notes

Kayla is a Life Coach from Indiana who loves learning. She has lived with narcolepsy her whole life, and now, as a Rising Voices speaker, is sharing her story to raise awareness and understanding of the condition.

The Rising Voices Series features a variety of first-hand stories from people living with sleep disorders around the world. At Project Sleep, we believe in the power of storytelling to raise awareness and break down stigma. This is why we train people with sleep disorders on how to share their experiences through the Rising Voices program.
