Summary

My guest for The Happy Hour #358 is Nate Knapper. Nate Knapper is the Founder & CEO of The Joseph Project, a nonprofit organization that connects human trafficking survivors with pro bono legal counsel. As a federal law enforcement officer, he served on a Detroit-based anti-trafficking squad, where he investigated human trafficking and child exploitation matters. In today’s episode, Nate tells us what domestic trafficking is and what it isn’t, and the common misconceptions about trafficking. Nate also talks about his organization The Joseph Project and the unbelievable story that led him to starting it through simple acts of obedience. I love when Nate says, “Sometimes what God is asking me and what He is inviting me into is this invitation to see the big within the small." For the full summary and links to the show, click below!

0:00.0	Hey friends and welcome to the happy hour with Jamie Ivy podcasts. I'm your host Jamie and I'm
0:05.1	so glad you're here. Each week on this show, I invite a friend to join me and we chat about
0:09.4	the big things in life, the little things in life, and everything in between.
0:23.0	Hey there, hey there, happy hour listeners. Happy Friday. Today we have a great show for you. In
0:28.4	fact, it's one of my favorites we recorded this year so far. Nate Napper is here and Nate was new
0:33.6	to me, but I'm so excited to know about the organization that he runs. In fact, he's the founder and CEO

1:28.0	is and what it is not, which is sometimes helpful just to have some definitions to understand what
1:32.2	we're talking about. And again, we spend a lot of time talking about his nonprofit called the Joseph
1:37.2	Project and how you can be a part of it as well. Friends, we are getting towards the end of January
1:42.1	and I will remind you again about our marriage challenge that my husband Aaron and I are doing
1:45.8	together with you and we would love to invite you to join us. If you're interested in joining us,
