TRIGGER WARNING: this episode touches on sex trafficking,
domestic violence, gang violence and substance abuse

Charlie was coerced into the sex trade as a young teen - unable
to escape the people who trafficked her, even after moving across
the world. While this story is undeniably dark, Charlie’s ability
to survive, heal, and reclaim their life is genuinely inspiring.
I had the pleasure of meeting them at one of their workshops,
where they helped others work through the deep shame often
attached to sex work. I know everyone has something to learn from
Charlie’s story, but if this does bring up sensitive themes for
you - especially around exploitation, DV or coercion - please
take care and listen at your own pace.
