Trigger warning: This episode covers the topics of human trafficking, sexual assault, and the trauma associated with that. Please use your discretion while listening. Thank you!
What does healing from human trafficking look like? In this week's episode, Sarah is joined by a very special guest, Amanda Blackwood. Amanda is an accomplished artist and author, public speaker, podcast host, trauma recovery mentor and a survivor of human trafficking. Amanda has spoken on a multitude of stages, international summits, radio programs, and has published over a dozen books. She launched two podcasts - one that focuses on interviewing other authors of trauma, and the other that discusses the long term consequences of trauma and how to fight back for a better life. A portion of every book sale goes to help fight human trafficking. Amanda lives in Denver, Colorado with her rescue cats and supportive husband who keep her sane.
Join these ladies as they discuss the reality of human trafficking, how God shows up in traumatic experiences, how sexual assault can affect the psyche, why community is essential for healing from trauma, and how telling our stories can inspire hope and strength in others.
