Human Trafficking Exposed: Protecting Vulnerable Youth & Communities | Abuse Prevention

In this episode, host Eve Hall sits down once again with Sean Shutt and Amanda Courier of the Touchy Subjects Podcast for a powerful and eye-opening conversation about human trafficking awareness and prevention. Together, they dive deep into the realities of sex trafficking, labor trafficking, and the systems that put vulnerable individuals at risk. Sean and Amanda break down common myths about human trafficking, clarify what trafficking actually looks like in the U.S., and explain how predators use online grooming tactics to target youth. The discussion also sheds light on high-risk populations, including runaway and homeless youth, LGBTQ+ individuals, foster-involved teens, and marginalized communities. Listeners will learn practical safety and prevention strategies designed for parents, caregivers, and educators—from setting healthy digital boundaries to having early, age-appropriate conversations about consent, safety, and bodily autonomy. The episode also explores: Why accurate media representation of trafficking matters How men can play a crucial role in advocacy and culture-shifting How early education builds resilience, self-advocacy skills, and long-term safety What community members can do to support survivors and disrupt trafficking systems This is a must-hear conversation for anyone seeking to better understand human trafficking, protect vulnerable populations, and become an informed advocate for prevention.   Resouces : Touchy Subjects: How Abuse Hides Behind Love and Controlhttps://open.spotify.com/episode/1zTBzGvpSEN6ahMngRH8uH?si=1WUp66VNT5yE8IuE6gZfiAEmotional Manipulation Exposed: Understanding the Power & Control Wheelhttps://open.spotify.com/episode/1I5XJwUb4kZyJJJOzd0ok1?si=N8ZZt6AOSxC79z3fc-PPmgWhat the Swinger Community Actually Looks Like (Hint: It is Not a Diddy Freakoff)https://open.spotify.com/episode/3EnP3W02CGln2wp45nn7OS?si=rwb0j2WLQuCxxqWp-SZQ0w Connect with the Guests Touchy Subjects PodcastInstagram | Facebook | Threads: @touchysubspodEmail: [e-mail] 15-Minute Discovery Call with Eve: https://calendly.com/pleasemebyevecreations/discovery-call Book a Coaching or Pelvic Health PT Session: https://calendly.com/pleasemebyevecreations/physical-therapy-acoustic-wave-dry-needling-appt Join Patreon for early releases & ad-free episodes: patreon.com/PleaseMePodcast Please Me!
