Quote from Dan Scarfe, CEO of XRAI - "we've had over 30k people experience our product, and we've heard incredible stories from people who've been able to leave the house for the first time in years, or who've been able to listen to the radio for the first time - these are things we all take for granted."

It's for someone dear to me in a heartbreaking legal battle.

Elphaba from Wicked played by Cynthia Erivo

Elphaba from Wicked played by Cynthia Erivo

Saw Wicked yesterday and nothing could have prepared me for this scene. I bawled like a baby. ๐Ÿ˜ญ

Seeing Ephaba being played by a Black woman meant this scene just hit differently. Collective tears. Relatable pain.
