What if human trafficking often looks very different than you've imagined? In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Teresa Merriweather, a survivor, educator, and nationally recognized advocate who challenges the stereotypes that keep trafficking hidden in plain sight.

Teresa shares how she was groomed by someone she trusted deeply, a respected leader in her church, and how emotional manipulation, betrayal, and coercion slowly led to her exploitation. Her story is a sobering reminder that trafficking does not always begin with force, and that victims come from every background, profession, age, and walk of life.

She also shares how she now trains law enforcement, healthcare professionals, foster parents, schools, and communities to recognize the warning signs that so often go unnoticed.
