Chelsea Taken Alive

Hello, fellas! My name is Chelsea Taken Alive, and trust me, my name isn’t the only thing interesting about me! I’m a 34-year-old Native American woman from South Dakota, proudly enrolled in the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe. I’m Hunkpapa Lakota Sioux, standing 5’9” tall with a big heart, a fun personality, and a little sass to keep things interesting!
I’m a widow and a proud mother of three handsome boys who mean the absolute world to me. Family is everything, and being away from mine hasn’t been easy. I’ve been incarcerated since 2022, but I refuse to let my circumstances define my future. I’m currently at FCI Danbury in Connecticut, with a projected release date of 11/21/2029. I’m participating in RDAP, working on myself, and preparing for a better chapter of my life.
I’m loving, loyal, honest, open-minded, and the type of woman who can make you laugh even on your worst day. I enjoy sports, good conversations, learning new things, and keeping my mind busy. I’ve worked in facilities and electrical, and one of my goals is to earn my paralegal certificate. I’ve got big dreams, an even bigger heart, and plenty of life left to live!
Growing up on a reservation gave me a strong connection to my culture and roots. And before you ask, no, we don’t still live in teepees. We have electricity, too! Haha!
I’m looking to build genuine, lasting friendships with people who know how to hold a conversation, share a laugh, and appreciate a good woman. I’m not interested in judgment or games. I appreciate a respectful gentleman who understands that there’s more to a woman than her past. Who knows? A beautiful friendship could turn into something even more meaningful.
I made mistakes, but my mugshot and federal number don’t tell my whole story. I’m somebody’s mother, daughter, and sister, and I’m doing the work to become the best version of myself.
So, if you’re looking for a down-to-earth Native woman with a sense of humor, a loyal heart, and a personality worth getting to know, don’t be shy! Pick up that pen and introduce yourself. I’m currently without phone privileges, but letters are always welcome. You can also send your email address so we can hopefully connect that way when my privileges are restored.
Until next time, peace and frybread grease!
