Description

Former police officer Conrad Woodall has spent 25 years working with survivors of sexual assault and trafficking. In this eye-opening conversation, he shares hard truths about what's really happening to our kids online and in schools.





What You'll Learn:


- Why over 100 boys sent inappropriate images to his 16-year-old daughter


- How a child was molested in just 37 seconds at a Dollar Tree


- Why certain kindergarten books are perfect grooming tools for predators


- How to teach kids consent as "the power to stop" not just saying yes


- Why sheltering kids from technology makes them MORE vulnerable


- How teaching toddlers to "fight the vacuum" builds crucial neural pathways


- The one skill every child needs before touching any device





Conrad developed the RECOVER model of therapeutic self-defense after seeing his mother's childhood trauma shape his family. With a master's in forensic psychology and 12 years as a Sacramento police officer, he understands both predator psychology and survivor recovery.
