In this episode, Bryn talks to Lexie Smith, Trauma-Informed Consultant and Anti-Trafficking Advocate, about how to identify and respond to someone who has suffered significant trauma and abuse. Lexie also shares her own story of being trafficked and exploited as a ten-year-old girl from a loving, middle-class, suburban American family.
Lexie is such an amazing communicator and shares some fantastically practical advice about how to navigate this sensitive subject, so do take notes and share this episode with anyone who may benefit from the contained wisdom.
