In this episode I am speaking with Speaker/Podcaster and CEO, Stephanie Olson.  Stephanie is a speaker, an author, and the Chief Executive Officer of The Set Me Free Project, a prevention education organization on human trafficking, social media safety, and healthy relationships.Stephanie has a mission to share that each person has an intrinsic value that can not be changed. Her work on teaching resilience in life and leadership has inspired people across the United States. In her conversational and humorous style, Stephanie will inspire and empower.

Living with years of parent abandonment, eating disorders, alcoholism, and domestic and sexual violence, she overcame through determination, faith, and resilience. She turned her trauma into triumph. 

Now, a sought after speaker, Stephanie runs a successful nonprofit organization and loves to speak to audiences of all kinds (faith-based and non) inspiring, encouraging, and bringing hope everywhere she speaks.In this episode we discuss:

1)  Unpacking the big and little T’s of trauma, seeing how we are continuing to relive the same stories until we come to a space of recognizing how we can own our own choices and we can choose our reaction. 2) The Set Me Free Project and how the process of grooming works.  Stephanie continues to pay it forward by working in the field of prevention with Human Trafficking.  3) The meaning of resilience, how resilience is getting up over and over no matter how many times we are knocked down. Stephanie is a powerhouse speaker standing in her vulnerability defining all things resilience.Connect with StephanieEmail: [email protected]Website: https://www.stephanieolson.com/ Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/stephanieolsonspeaker/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/stephanieolsonspeaking/ Twitter - https://twitter.com/stephanieospeak YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCsKIF4pRUn1uJwKq94s16g Linked In - https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephanie-olson-ba959173/
