Alicia’s Part I eases us into her life. She speaks on things parents get right. However, Part II discloses how with even all the correct tools children and young adults can be caught up in actual sex trafficking because of the traffickers expert tactics. Part I Alicia discusses the benefits of being raised in a two parent family household. Alicia also shares her receiving open discussions and proper dialog about body autonomy pre-pubescent, and pubescent, sooner than most households because she and her mother entered puberty earlier than most girls. Alicia’s Part I wants to help parents/guardians talk about early puberty and adolescence years openly. She shares tips and books that help her. As usual, my guests have secrets. In her Part II, she discloses hers. She gives us an awareness that no matter how structured your home life is, outside influences occur; solidifying, my views on the need to have candid conversations early in households regarding abuse. It is this open dialog with her parents that she credits for her survival after being trafficked. Alicia’s journey is a testimony to survival and human instincts. You do not want to miss Part II. To hear the secrets of guests the podcast often must lay the background of the guests. Part I is the background. Part II is her secret. How can you help WANOS help others?
