Former police officer Conrad Woodall has spent 25 years working with survivors of sexual assault and trafficking. In this eye-opening conversation, he shares hard truths about what's really happening to our kids online and in schools.

- How a child was molested in just 37 seconds at a Dollar Tree

- Why certain kindergarten books are perfect grooming tools for predators

- How to teach kids consent as "the power to stop" not just saying yes

Conrad developed the RECOVER model of therapeutic self-defense after seeing his mother's childhood trauma shape his family. With a master's in forensic psychology and 12 years as a Sacramento police officer, he understands both predator psychology and survivor recovery.
