In today’s episode we are joined by Atira Tan, founder and director of Art to Healing, a mental health charity supporting the trauma recovery of child sex slaves in Asia and the Pacific. Atira shares with us how the hijacked #SaveTheChildren hashtag is intentionally spreading misinformation, pointing well-meaning people in the wrong direction and diverting attention and funding away from the millions of sex-trafficked children around the world. You will learn how “taking action” is not sharing a #savethechildren post on your Instagram story, and how truly effective action can create change in this $150-billion-dollar industry. I hope you enjoy this passionate discussion with Atira and feel inspired to join the fight to truly save the children with me.
