## Resource

Annika Chambers and Paul DesLauriers were musicians in their own right, each with their own bands until fate took over in 2018. They met in Memphis, Tennessee, and it was the proverbial “Love at first sight” for the couple. Their chemistry on and off stage is powerful, making their music even more so. As season five winds to a close, join us for a great discussion with this power couple, about their fateful meeting, the quietly planned proposal under the St. Louis arch, and their subsequent elopement. We also talk about Annika’s PTSD, Paul’s fall and subsequent traumatic brain injury, and how the two have managed to work within the entertainment industry despite these challenges. They are truly a one of a kind couple, and you are going to enjoy their story.
