Description

Sex trafficking survivor Timea Nagy exposes shocking truths about victim vs criminal treatment, trauma healing, prison conditions & why the justice system fails both victims & offenders in this raw talk.

In this explosive episode, I sit down with internationally recognized human trafficking advocate Timea Nagy, who survived trafficking from Hungary to Canada and became the founder of Canada's first victim services safe house. After 20 years fighting for trafficking victims, she's exposing uncomfortable truths about trauma, healing, and systemic failures.

Timea doesn't hold back—she challenges victim mentality, explains why trauma never fully heals, and reveals how both traffickers and victims come from the same unresolved trauma. She shares her controversial views on prostitution laws, victim services that create dependency, and why throwing money at outcomes instead of prevention keeps the cycle spinning.

We dive deep into prison conditions, triple-bunking inmates, the billion-dollar crime industry, and why the system benefits from recidivism. Timea explains the neuroscience of trauma, generational programming, and her new mission to revolutionize social services through "Trauma Lab"—focusing on root causes instead of band-aid solutions.

From financial trauma workshops to mentoring former pimps, this conversation will challenge everything you think you know about victims, criminals, and healing. Timea's raw honesty about taking responsibility for your own trauma recovery, breaking victim mentality, and the reality of "trauma porn" in advocacy work is both shocking and necessary.

This isn't your typical survivor story—it's a wake-up call about personal responsibility, systemic change, and what real healing looks like when you stop waiting for the world to save you.
