0:00.0 | This episode contains descriptions of sexual abuse and rape that can be extremely triggering. |
0:06.0 | In the show notes, there are links and phone numbers to different resources that you or someone you know may find useful if you're struggling with any |
0:15.0 | of the topics discussed in today's episode. What's your secret? |
0:20.0 | Welcome back to another month of Beyond the Secret. My name is Ace Fanning and I have really missed you guys. |
0:32.0 | So, to make up for it I am coming back twice this month |
0:38.4 | with a two-part story and if you have missed your weekly fix a beyond the secret, you can always |
0:46.0 | join Patreon using the link in the show notes. But if not, no stress. I'll be back again next month. |
0:54.0 | Okay, so when I only share with you guys once a month, |

2:15.1 | shipped in containers overseas and forced to inject drugs. That stuff happens. |
2:21.0 | But I think I had this false reality of believing that that was the only |
2:28.5 | way sex trafficking could happen. And I think that that belief gave me a false hope that this wasn't |
2:40.4 | happening around me, this wasn't something I could ever see happening to anyone around me and it made me |
2:46.5 | me feel safer and more hopeful. But this story showed me a much scarier side, a much more personal side of sex trafficking, and it made me realize that it can happen anywhere. |
3:12.5 | And even worse, your abuser can be anyone. |
