In this week’s episode we discussed human trafficking with Father Jeff Bayhi, who is the founder of Metanoia Manor. In 2018 he founded this faith-based residential facility which offers a place of refuge to female adolescent victims of human trafficking. We talk about some heavy stuff in this one and Father Jeff doesn’t pull any punches on this matter either, which is good because this needs to be talked about. I appreciate him taking the time to talk about it with us.
