Welcome back to Speaking of Her! In this episode, Luce takes us into the extraordinary life of Lek Chailert — the pioneering Thai conservationist who has dedicated her life to rescuing and protecting elephants from abuse and exploitation. From humble beginnings to international recognition, Lek’s compassion and determination have created safe havens for Thailand’s most majestic animals.

After hearing Lek’s inspiring story, join us as we reflect on our own unforgettable experience at Following Giants, an ethical elephant sanctuary in Krabi. It was eye-opening, emotional, and truly incredible to witness firsthand the impact of sanctuaries like these.

We’ll also be raising funds to support Following Giants' vital work — a GoFundMe link will be shared soon, so keep an eye out. And don’t forget to visit our Instagram page (speakingofher_podcast), where you can see photos of some of the elephants we talk about.

This episode is full of heart, hope, and big floppy ears — you won’t want to miss it!
