#71: How Love Heals with Becca Stevens

Guest: Becca Stevens, Thistle Farms founder Today’s guest is Becca Stevens, an author, priest and social entrepreneur. She founded Thistle Farms over 20 years ago to welcome and empower women who have experienced trafficking, prostitution and addiction. Today, Thistle Farms has grown to become America’s largest justice enterprise, and Thistle Farms Global helps employ over 1,800 women worldwide. Becca has been named a White House "Champion of Change" and a CNN Hero, and she sat down with me at the Innovations in Behavioral Healthcare conference in Nashville to share how practicing love can impact economies, heal lives and change us in the process.
