Joining the user's current voice channel

On [email protected] & node v18.12 I've been trying to create a command that joins whichever channel the user is in. I keep running into an issue where it doesn't read the user's current voice, instead it thinks "currVoiceChannel" is false.

// Todo: ejoin makes bot join user when called
// Todo: if already in call, reply to user-only, already in call

const { SlashCommandBuilder } = require('discord.js');
const { joinVoiceChannel, getVoiceConnections } = require('@discordjs/voice');

module.exports = {
    data: new SlashCommandBuilder()
        .setName('ejoin')
        .setDescription('Bot will join your current voice.'),
    async execute(interaction) {
        // figure out current voice channel
        const currVoiceChannel = interaction.member.voice.channel;

        // if voicechannel is empty, reply join voice channel, end command
        if (!currVoiceChannel) {
            return interaction.reply('Please join a voice channel.');
        } else {
            console.log('Current VC: ', currVoiceChannel.id);
        }

        // try joining voice channel, or catch the error, end command
        try {
            const connection = joinVoiceChannel({
                channelId: currVoiceChannel.id,
                guildId: currVoiceChannel.guild.id,
                adapterCreator: currVoiceChannel.guild.voiceAdapterCreator,
            });

            console.log(getVoiceConnections());
            await interaction.reply(`Joined: ${currVoiceChannel.name}.`);

        }
        catch (error) {
            console.log(error);
            await interaction.reply('Could not join voice channel.');
        }

        // if called when already in a voice channel, reply already in call, end command

    },
};

// Todo: ejoin makes bot join user when called
// Todo: if already in call, reply to user-only, already in call

const { SlashCommandBuilder } = require('discord.js');
const { joinVoiceChannel, getVoiceConnections } = require('@discordjs/voice');

module.exports = {
    data: new SlashCommandBuilder()
        .setName('ejoin')
        .setDescription('Bot will join your current voice.'),
    async execute(interaction) {
        // figure out current voice channel
        const currVoiceChannel = interaction.member.voice.channel;

        // if voicechannel is empty, reply join voice channel, end command
        if (!currVoiceChannel) {
            return interaction.reply('Please join a voice channel.');
        } else {
            console.log('Current VC: ', currVoiceChannel.id);
        }

        // try joining voice channel, or catch the error, end command
        try {
            const connection = joinVoiceChannel({
                channelId: currVoiceChannel.id,
                guildId: currVoiceChannel.guild.id,
                adapterCreator: currVoiceChannel.guild.voiceAdapterCreator,
            });

            console.log(getVoiceConnections());
            await interaction.reply(`Joined: ${currVoiceChannel.name}.`);

        }
        catch (error) {
            console.log(error);
            await interaction.reply('Could not join voice channel.');
        }

        // if called when already in a voice channel, reply already in call, end command

    },
};

Whenever I join a VC and call the bot it returns "Please join a voice channel". I've looked at multiple examples and they all use the If (!currVoiceChannel)
