Ep. 536 - A Survivor Story: Serving her Country with Invisible Wounds with Jakia Lindley

How long are you going to remain silent? Your story needs to be told and heard. In this segment, Jakia Lindley shares her survivor story by serving her country with invisible wounds. She is not allowing what happened to her to remain silent but using it to empower others and stand up for sexual assault and abuse. See video here - https://youtu.be/nToQmgqyqdU WHO IS JAKIA? From an early age, Jakia Lindley dreamed of being a judge, an attorney, or somehow being a part of something bigger than herself. Always looking to protect and serve her community, she eventually found her calling in the Air Force. She joined the military in 2010 and is currently a Staff Sergeant in the U.S. Air Force. Lindley studied criminal justice and psychology at the American Military University before switching her focus to business management. Known to her family and friends as “Kia” and, for a time, as “slim”, she grew up in a loving single-parent home with her two other siblings. Aside from writing, her passions in life are uplifting others, teaching as a Certified Master Resiliency Trainer and as a Certified Department of Defense Sexual Assault Advocate, fine food and wine, art, music, and last, but certainly not least, binge-watching her favorite shows. Jakia Lindley was born in Memphis, Tennessee, raised in Canton, Ohio, and now resides with her husband and daughter in Hawaii, where she is currently learning to surf.
