What does it take to walk away from a life that’s stealing your soul and build one that sets others free?
In this raw and powerful episode, author and advocate Harmony Dust shares how childhood trauma made her vulnerable to exploitation, how she escaped life under a trafficker’s control, and why she founded Treasures, a survivor-led organization supporting women in the commercial sex industry.
From strip club outreach to global training, Harmony is changing the conversation around trafficking and what it means to heal.
This is not just a survivor story - it's a redemption epic.
It’s a reminder that every woman deserves a way out and a way forward.
Topics include:
The misunderstood face of trafficking
What it really takes to leave
Trauma, recovery, and the power of choice
