This conversation will blow your mind! Glendyne is the founder of Defend Dignity, a national anti-human trafficking organization and she is an absolute gem and wealth of knowledge. In part 1 of this conversation we talk about Defend Dignity’s work across Canada which includes tackling injustice at a legislative level and much, much more! It’s a little like drinking out of a fire hydrant, so you’ll want to go back and listen to it again so you don’t miss any of the amazing resources and information she has to share. And it’s not over yet! Stay tuned for part 2 where we tackle the issue of pornography and the profound impact is has on human trafficking. I promise, you do NOT want to miss it, so make sure you subscribe to this podcast or our email list so you don’t miss it! See you there!

I SO enjoyed this conversation with Leola, and I know you will too! We cover everything from how hard it is to learn languages to the pain of standing at the memorial of a friend you've lost to the sex industry. Leola gets real about her journey to becoming the ESL coordinator of Fight4Freedom which is a local, anti-human trafficking organization.

Hope Ministries is our sister organization where we send 20% of our profits at Wild Ginger Coffee. Jen and Phil head it up and have such a big heart for the women trapped in the sex industry in Brazil. In this conversation we talk about how they ended up in Brazil, why the sex industry and what Hope Ministries is doing tangibly to walk along side these women. You'll also get a small glimpse into what the sex industry looks like there, and how you can help. Enjoy!
