In this episode, we talk to Ryan Gadsby, a young man who has been through childhood sexual abuse and is using his platform to speak out and educate others.   Ryan created a video called 'Letter to my Abuser' where he tells a visual story of going through and surviving years of sexual, physical, mental and emotional abuse by his step father by using actual photos and footage from his childhood.   We start this episode with the audio from this video, but please click below for the link to the video.

We discuss how we as a society should be questioning everything, but how these real issues are not brought to light because Hollywood and the media make jokes out of it.  People can't fathom the evil that is done because it's just fiction.  We are not doing a service to anyone who suffers this trauma by not believing them...especially men.  Only a small percentage of survivors that come forth to break their silence are men and yet astounding statistics surround child abuse towards males.

Ryan's story is important for many reasons.   Abuse can take place anywhere and to anyone and the first place we should always look for signs of abuse is right within our own homes and neighborhoods.   We can't ignore these issues anymore and need to listen to survivors like Ryan when they speak. When men like Ryan step up and speak their truth, it allows others like him to step up and do the same. Ryan is an inspiration and what he's doing deserves to be recognized and celebrated. It's the courage of brave survivors like him who will bring positive change to our future's children.

BONUS EPISODE!   We finally had the chance to have our dear friend, anti-human trafficking activist, and co-founder of Stand By Survivors, Emma Pietrzak on our podcast.   She is the host of The Imagination podcast and the creator of the Survivor Series in which she features survivors from all walks of life.  At the release of this podcast, Emma has had close to 15 different survivors speak on her platform.  It is important to recognize that when Emma brings a survivor onto her podcast, it is often the first interaction they've had with each other beyond text messages, and instead of these guests discussing how they became famous, how great their book is doing, or what new trend is occurring, they are discussing the deepest, darkest secrets with the world.   She is an amazing host, making the survivors feel comfortable and empathizing with their stories as they are told.  The emotions you'll see are true emotions from hearing the survivor story first hand. 

Stand By Survivors is our main organization that fights for and supports survivors of all backgrounds.  The Imagination and Save Our Children podcasts,  www.standbysurvivors.com, and our Stand By Survivors telegram page are resources that we've created to give more insight into survivors lives and a way for believers / truth-tellers to connect and help stand up against these abuses.   We take this time to explain how the three of us got into this calling of anti-human trafficking, what we've been through because we are in this fight, and how blessed we are to be on this journey together.  The power,  spirituality, and strength we see in these survivors has helped us push through, find ourselves, and stand strong in our truth.

Please join us in our journey to stand by ALL survivors by sharing our content and letting us know what topics you'd like to learn about or hear on our podcasts.

We are blessed to have the chance to speak to Kyle Collins, a Phoenix born lyricist, father, producer, and self described visionary.  Musician, Sincerely  Collins, Kyle has lived through a life's worth of tragedy growing up without a father, surviving the early disappearance of his mother, and later facing adversity while homeless.  He unleashed the gift of grit: a hidden resilience throwing everything he had into the love of music.   Collins often taps into the common experiences of his uncommon life for his otherworldly lyrics, and in doing so, becomes the kind of messenger that is too often missing in today’s musical landscape.  Through perseverance the man lives his truth everyday and tells the stories that he knows best. 

In this episode we talk about Kyle's childhood, raising his daughter, and his journey to enlightenment while dealing with the entertainment industry.   The message of being yourself, always having integrity, and living in your truth is the theme of our conversation.  It's a great to have found someone who is a genuine role model for kids.   As Kyle states,  “I make music for dreamers, I make music for people who just know that there’s more, I make music for people who have visions, for people who believe in themselves but don’t necessarily know how to take action on that.  Or maybe they don’t believe in themselves… yet.  Maybe they want to believe in themselves. Maybe they come to me, they come to my music to learn how to believe in themselves or to learn how to break away from the norm as much as they’ve wanted to their entire life.  I just provide that bridge for people to unplug from the Matrix.”

As parents, it is great to know that there are artists in the music industry that are creating positive music and being great influences to the kids out there who are still looking into themselves and trying to find their true self.  Kyle is more than just a man who moves to the beat of his own drum, but one who encourages the rest of us to get with the rhythm of believing in our infinite potential.  That, more than anything, is what his music is all about.

In this episode we are talking with Vee, a survivor, human trafficking activist, and business owner.  You may recognize her as "Bagels and Shade" if you follower her on social media and the podcast world.   We touch slightly on Vee's story of being a survivor but our episode mostly centers around educating people on the business of human trafficking, grooming, and mind control.   We discuss how to look deeper into situations that appear singular but are actually part of a much bigger picture when you're able to make the connections. 

As a survivor, she uses her voice to call out the evil that still lurks in this world.  Pedophilia, incest, rape, and child sexual abuse are never easy conversations to have, yet many still want to avoid talking about it...assuming it will make it go away.  Vee is such an advocate for continuing to make people uncomfortable to get the message out there!  Stop judging and doubting the folks who are speaking out about the evil and start researching and listening.  It could be the difference in saving a child's life...possibly a child you know.

Taking a stance against human trafficking and pedophilia and standing up for survivors may seem very vulnerable and lonely, but the more you stand up, the more people will join you.  In a time when our children have never been more in danger and when child trafficking numbers are sky high, right now is the time to really educate ourselves and others on this business so we can help move the needle forward in the right direction. Vee is such an inspiration and someone who is equally funny and empathetic.  We had so much fun talking and laughing with Vee on this episode and we hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

In this episode, we are blessed to be able to have Tommy Womeldorf on to speak about his childhood sexual abuse experience with the Boy Scout's and Mormon Church and how it has effected raising his 4 daughters.  Since Tommy has written a book, Scouts Dishonor, we do not spend much time discussing his past.  However, please consider purchasing Tommy's book to support this brave survivor and read more on his history.   Instead, we discuss how he keeps his daughters safe by keeping them aware, alert, and educated.  For more on Tommy's story visit @yourimaginationisreal 'Survivor Series' as Becky, Bridget and Emma have an open conversation with Tommy about his childhood/book Scout's Dishonor.

Scout's Dishonor: 

"As a precocious, enthusiastic boy of thirteen, Tommy had the whole world ahead of him...until a trusted association with his Boy Scout leader destroyed his innocence and shattered his self-perception. To make matters worse, the abuse Tommy endured took place within the sacred walls of the Mormon Church. While his tormentor went on to molest at least five other boys and was ultimately convicted on these charges, Tommy’s own abuse went unacknowledged, the denial of which forever altered his life’s path.  

Succumbing to a lack of trust and self-worth, Tommy descends into a tumultuous life of drug and alcohol abuse, always seeking to mask the pain of his past. It is his relationship with the young, courageous single mother, Arlene Ryan, and her infant daughter that finally leads him into sobriety and brings him to a point in his life where he must question the failures of those he once trusted to protect him.

Struggling to understand how reputable organizations can act in such reprehensible ways, Tommy is soon embroiled in a legal drama with the Mormon Church itself as he seeks the retribution and recognition of truth that had been suppressed for far too long. Throughout this journey, Tommy is gradually put back on the path for which his life was destined, with the ultimate purpose of serving victims and understanding the true meaning of justice, forgiveness, and love."

On this episode, we are so fortunate to have on Elizabeth Harding Weinstein, a mother of 3 (18, 16, and 14) who is in the fight of her life to get her children back from their abusive, pedophile father after the justice system granted him full custody (even though there is an active investigation into his abuse allegations).   Lizzie is a nursing graduate from  Columbia University and lives in New York State.  Unfortunately, she is also a survivor of pedophilia, domestic violence and narcissistic abuse.  Her husband, Brian Stryker Weinstein, is a well-known lawyer and senior litigation partner of his firm, he graduated from Yale Law School and sits as a board member on Duke University’s Keenan Institute for Ethics.

Back in April 2020 Lizzie discovered that her husband of 18 years was he himself a pedophile after a known history of sexual abuse as a child.   She and the children confronted Brian directly offering him help and he admitted to the pedophilia.   Unfortunately, from that point on, Brian had begun using his narcissistic tendencies to gaslight Lizzie and the kids and buy or persuade the cops, lawyers, and judges to keep the children from their mom.  The battle Lizzie goes through weekly, and sometimes daily, is difficult to fathom  and it's amazing she’s still here fighting.  That’s the strength of a mama bear for you!   She has been harassed, arrested and imprisoned on multiple occasions with NO criminal charges, evicted from her home, denied access to any of her bank accounts since coming forth with her story... and that's just the tip of the iceberg.   

Since this discovery, Lizzie has been taking active action to expose the corruption in the court systems that actually works to protect pedophiles instead of persecuting and punishing them.  During this time, Lizzie has only been able to see her children a handful of times, because the courts deemed it appropriate to place them with their abusive, pedophile father without their mom.   

In this episode, we focus on the parts of the story that I think concern and scare us all as parents.  Could this happen to my children?  What do we do if it does happen to us?  What do we need to be aware of to make sure we’re prepared?   Lizzie has some great insight based on what she's had to go through this past year.  Nothing is stronger or more unbreakable than the love between a mother and her child.   I hope Lizzie's story encourages you to share her story far and wide, sign her petition (below), and start speaking up so we can bring justice to survivors like Elizabeth and victims like her children once and for all.

In this episode, we are joined by  Survivor Jeremy Indika.  Jeremy is a firm believer in the "Power of Story Telling" and the importance of sharing  his story of childhood sexual abuse in an attempt to help break down the stigma and silence that is allowing it to thrive.   We had the great pleasure of chatting about future projects Jeremy's working on. We're so excited to see what content he will come up with next to help us not only learn and raise awareness  but to help educate others.

Instead of diving deep into Jeremy's past on our podcast, we take this time to discuss what we can do to help children moving forward.  The importance of education, talking to your children about their private areas, and making sure they know that there are no secrets when someone touches them in those areas.  Talking to your children must start early and be repeated often .  These conversations should be age appropriate, starting with using the correct names for private areas, reminding them of their body sovereignty,  and as they get older beginning to have conversations about sex and body positivity.   

As parents we spend so much time talking about avoiding strangers and not taking drugs, but we ignore having the conversation with our kids about their body.  It can be embarrassing, we know, but it is so important to talk to them or get a book on their body's changes or find an age-appropriate video to watch together.  If we are not controlling the narrative of what is told to our children, they'll find it elsewhere.  Jeremy has a great 5-part series on Instagram that he created to be the starting point of conversations with other parents and with some older kids.  If we are to stop the secrecy of pedophilia, we need to make sure our kids know what is good and bad and they have a soft place to land if they ever have to come forward with this type of information.  It starts at home!

We were excited to have connected with guest of honor, Jeremy Indika. We hope you get some great pointers to being having conversations with your children.  It's never too early to start talking.  The longer you wait, the harder it becomes.

Jeremy has taken us on his journey by  sharing his most vulnerable and painful moments/experience of his life with us. It takes so much courage, Jeremy has embraced the opportunity to create illustrations and animations to help educate our children, parents and future generations on how to identify the different types of abuse/grooming.

In this first episode, learn a little bit about Bridget.  She's a single mother of one daughter who lives in the Valley of the Sun of Phoenix, Arizona.  Bridget was exposed to a lot during her childhood. She grew up around pro-sport’s and the entertainment industry. 

About 2 years ago Bridget found herself in a situationship which lead to toxicity,anxiety and could’ve gone down a dark path. Beginning to see the character of one facing not only a sex addiction but an addiction to porn, lying and drugs. She knew she had to get herself out of that relationship. As she was facing anxiety while researching deeper down the rabbit hole of sex trafficking everything started to click. 

Bridget faced multiple situations in her own personal life that lead to her awakening over the last 4 years. She is a firm believer in God will never give you more than you can handle. And whatever is done in the dark will always come to light.  God has placed so many people in her path during this awakening process as she went down the journey of saying No, the power of one and focusing on self love.

In 2019, she joined a community Army of Love with her friend Emma spreading love and kindness across social media platforms. As Bridget saw the shifts in technology, relationships, healthcare, food, the fashion, and the entertainment industry. She than realized the connections to all the industries,  could not fathom it as it was beyond disgusting and disturbing. 🤮  

This lead to flipping her reality upside down by knowing the truth and was a concerned mother. Watching how social media influences and how it plays a major role in all aspects of a child’s development (life) is very alarming. Many parents do not have open discussions or uncomfortable talks with their children. Knowing what Bridget knows now especially when it came to sex trafficking and saw it happening in her own backyard speaking up was the only option. She spent the next year cleaning up all aspects of her life from relationships,health, social media and taking her power back. She is very selective now of who she engages with and gives her energy to. Blessed to be on this journey with Emma and Becky as we raise more awareness, have these uncomfortable conversations and continue voice for the voiceless and raising awareness. 

Through the process of relationships, social media, health, anxiety, entertainment and other experiences Bridget has found herself learning the deeper reality of the world and the evils behind it.  She believes that we can teach our kids not only to be safe, but to also be on the lookout for others.  There is no right answer on how to parent our kids, but Bridget will bring you along on her journey of what she's done so you can take any nuggets that you find beneficial.

In this episode, Bridget and Becky invite their kids (Bridget's daughter and Becky's two sons) to sit down with them and watch a Bark Technology video on the dangers of Social Media.   It is scary to think about what predators are doing to our children, but we think it is important for them to also see who could be on the other side of the phone or iPad.   

If you need a conversation starter with your pre-teen or teen on the dangers of social media/technology, consider showing them this video and having that hard discussion.  We need to start talking to our children about these dangers.  Knowledge is power!

This podcast is recorded from an Instagram Live we did on April 2nd.

 It's a conversation about how we met and  the interesting, divine, and crazy things we've been through in the past few months.   How we got to this place over the last few years and where we think it's going to lead us.  We discuss how our lives have connected for the greater good, our plan for Stand By Survivors, and how living and parenting with God is such a big part in how this world will become a better place.

Please connect with us on Instagram to follow see future lives between ourselves and others along with content on human trafficking and parenting in this red-pilled world.
