"Daily struggles of having apraxia so people can learn more compassion for autistics with extreme stress that sometimes causes them to look violent or defiant. Horrible being trapped in a body that often misrepresents you. Living with apraxia does get better when voices can be heard. But the thing is, apraxia often works against us even after we’ve become very skilled spellers, some days leaving us voiceless when we lose this never-ending brain-body battle", says Makayla Cain. Makyla, Manana, and the Chaka Khan Foundation join us to discuss the important work they do. To learn more about the Chaka Khan Foundation visit https://chakakhanfoundation.org/ .
