How Did You Get Here with Verastic
Short story: Those who are doing it do not have two heads.
Long story: Welcome to How Did You Get Here with Verastic - the podcast where real people share real stories about the winding, messy, hilarious, and sometimes miraculous journeys that got them here. No fluff, and no curated Instagram perfection. Just raw, authentic conversations that inspire you to believe that if they can do it, so can you.
As our Nigerian parents loved to remind us: Those who are doing it do not have two heads. Translation? The people you admire aren’t superheroes; they’re humans with struggles, detours, wild stories, and twenty-four hours in a day, just like you.
So, if you’ve ever wondered how someone survived heartbreak, built a career from scratch, moved continents, reinvented themselves, or turned pain into power, pull up a chair. This is where truth meets laughter, and where you get the audacity to believe that your own “getting here” is absolutely possible. I'm just here as your good-smelling guide.

“I Am More Than My Scars” — Kechi Okwuchi on Faith, Healing & Survival After the Sosoliso Plane Crash
In this deeply moving episode of How Did You Get Here with Verastic, I sit down with Kechi Okwuchi — one of only two survivors of the tragic Sosoliso plane crash of 2005.
Kechi’s story is one of unimaginable pain, miraculous survival, and powerful transformation. From surviving burns over 65% of her body to undergoing more than 100 surgeries, from competing on America’s Got Talent to becoming a motivational speaker and author of More Than My Scars, Kechi’s life is a testament to faith, resilience, and purpose.
We talk about her recovery journey, the strength of her mother’s love, her unshakable faith in God, and how she decided that her scars would tell a story — but never define her.
If you’ve ever faced loss, pain, or seasons of doubt, this conversation will remind you that there is life — and light — after trauma.
