À propos de ce contenu audio

 In this episode of "Life on Fire," Deidre and I share our journey of moving to Quebec and the beautiful new apartment we now call home. We dive into a significant topic: my recent ultra marathon, where I ran to raise funds for Rising Angels, an organization founded by Deidre's mom that supports women who have exited prostitution and human trafficking.We discuss the importance of mentorship for these women as they navigate their new lives after trauma. I express my gratitude for the support we've received from our community, which allows us to continue our work in ministry and for Rising Angels. Deidre highlights the critical role of education and awareness in combating human trafficking, emphasizing the need for sensitivity when discussing such heavy topics.As we reflect on my training and the challenges I faced during the race, I share how my experiences parallel the struggles of the women we aim to help. I recount the physical and mental battles I encountered, including a sprained ankle that tested my resolve. Throughout the race, I was reminded of the resilience required to overcome trauma, both in running and in life.We also touch on the broader implications of human trafficking and the societal norms that perpetuate it. Deidre and I encourage listeners to consider how they can contribute to this cause, whether through financial support or by spreading awareness. 00:00:00 - Welcome to Life on FireIntroduction to the podcast and the new apartment in Quebec.00:00:38 - Running for the OneDiscussion about Brody's recent race and its purpose to raise funds for Rising Angels.00:01:43 - The Importance of Rising AngelsOverview of Rising Angels and its mission to support women exiting prostitution and human trafficking.00:03:06 - Trigger WarningAcknowledgment of the sensitive topics of prostitution and human trafficking.00:03:53 - Impact of TrainingBrody shares his experience with the Mending Broken Wings training and its effects on his perspective.00:05:04 - Understanding TraumaDiscussion on the complexities of trauma and its impact on women in the sex industry.00:08:01 - Normalization of ExploitationExploration of how societal norms contribute to the acceptance of pornography and prostitution.00:10:00 - Raising AwarenessEncouragement to take training on human trafficking and the importance of awareness.00:11:10 - Brody's Race Fundraising GoalsDetails about the fundraising goal for Rising Angels and the current amount raised.00:12:43 - Back-to-Back RacesBrody discusses the challenges of running two races in close succession.00:14:17 - Nighttime Race ChallengesThe unique difficulties of starting a race at night and its effects on performance.00:19:01 - Injury During the RaceBrody recounts spraining his ankle during the race and the mental battle that ensued.00:22:01 - Parallel to Women's StrugglesReflection on how Brody's race experience parallels the struggles faced by women in trafficking.00:27:22 - Motivation to ContinueBrody's determination to finish the race despite injury, inspired by the women he is supporting.00:30:30 - Community Support in RacingDiscussion on the importance of community and support in both racing and recovery.00:32:02 - The Impact of MoneyExploration of how the love of money drives exploitation in the sex industry.00:35:22 - Mentorship and SupportThe role of mentorship in helping women recover from trauma and rebuild their lives.00:41:05 - Long-Term Effects of TraumaDiscussion on the lasting impact of trauma on women and their families.00:46:01 - Fighting for ChangeThe importance of advocacy and sharing stories to combat human trafficking and support survivors.Make donation for Text you back in a little bit.
