From Darkness to Light: Sandy Storm's Journey of Survival and Healing

If I can offer hope, if I can let people know that, even if they've experienced, even if that evil of trafficking has touched their lives, or any kind of of evil of rape or abuse or neglect, any of those things has affected them, there is hope for a new life, there is hope to live a healthy life.
Imagine living through over two decades of trauma without realizing the full extent of your suffering. This is the reality that Sandy Storm faced, starting from her childhood. In this gripping episode of 'It's All In Your Head', Sandy shares her incredible story of survival and resilience after being a trafficking victim for more than 20 years. Initially unaware of the depth of her trauma, Sandy’s awakening began when she started volunteering in the justice movement.
Now, she’s an author of three books and a dedicated abolitionist working with DeliverFund to help other trafficking victims find freedom and healing. Throughout the episode, Sandy discusses the physical and mental toll of her experiences, the transformative power of faith, and the importance of recognizing and addressing trauma. Her journey highlights the significance of self-care and healthy practices in the healing process.
She also calls for stronger penalties for human trafficking and emphasizes the need to support political leaders who prioritize this issue. Sandy's story is not just about surviving; it's about thriving and finding hope amidst unimaginable adversity. Her message is clear: no matter what kind of trauma you’ve experienced, there is a path to healing and a new life.
Tune in to hear Sandy’s inspiring journey and learn about the critical work being done by DeliverFund to combat trafficking and support survivors.
