I turned around to see a masked man pointing a gun at me. It was just the beginning of a series of events, including robbery and abduction, which changed my life forever. I Need Blue, hosted by Jen Lee, is a podcast series featuring lived-experiences from survivors of life events. I NEED BLUE creates space for survivors of trauma to feel they BELONG, are LOVED, UNDERSTOOD and EMPOWERED! I called 9-1-1 and they provided me with life-saving directions to help my customer who was having a medical emergency. Law enforcement rescued us and caught the robber. Our first-responders face unique traumas every day. I NEED BLUE provides space for them too!

episode 15: Episode 15 Life Recaptured - Human Sex Trafficking - Signs, Methods And Resources
Join me today in welcoming Brandy, President of Life Recaptured, and Brook who is a survivor of human trafficking.
Brandy had a family member who was trafficked by someone they knew. The sadness of the situation inspired her to start Life Recaptured, the first safe home for women who are victims of sex trafficking.
Did you know there are cartoon apps which children can access on their phone/IPad and it is a trafficker who has now been given access to everything in the household? Brandy discusses these methods and other ways to recognize signs of sex trafficking. This episode is informative and resourceful.
Brook is a survivor. Her story provides hope for other women who think this lifestyle will never end. She shares her reasons why it is hard for women to escape or leave. Brooke shares how she learned to trust in Brandy, humankind and God. How to love and be loved.
National hotline: 888-373-7888.
