What the EF Podcast with Eli Corbett

How this bad ass owned her epilepsy

Diagnosed with epilepsy as a teen, Eli did what many of us have done: hid it from everyone and pretended it’s not there. Years later as a practicing attorney, a higher up told her that if she wanted to be successful, she needed to keep her diagnosis to herself.

Instead, she chose to tell everyone. By owning her story, Eli shares how it helped her go farther and opened doors she never even imagined.
