In this gripping episode of 'Rebuilding the Beast', hosted by NBA champion Festus Ezeli, Sarah opens up about her harrowing experience of surviving an attempted human trafficking abduction. Imagine going for a morning run and being suddenly attacked, tasered, and nearly shoved into a car. That’s exactly what happened to Sarah, but she fought back, drawing strength from a story she once saw on Oprah.
