Don’t Talk About It?? — Why We Must Speak Up About CSA, with Gloria Masters
In this powerful and emotionally charged episode of The Visible Kindness Podcast, host Ed Squire welcomes international survivor advocate Gloria Masters — a woman whose story has reached millions and is still breaking silence today.
Born into sex trafficking and raised in a cycle of abuse in New Zealand, Gloria not only survived 16 years of horror, she rose with purpose. Today, she’s a published author, speaker, and the founder of Handing the Shame Back, a global foundation for adult survivors of child sexual abuse (CSA).
📍 Note: This interview was recorded shortly after the COVID-19 pandemic. Its message is as vital now as ever.
We talked about:
Why silence protects abusers — and how to break it
Gloria’s survival journey and the power of the human spirit
The global reach of her advocacy and campaigns
The #Handsign4Kids and Global Awareness Day initiatives
How love and humility anchor her life and mission
