The One Where Mel is caught up in sex trafficking in Canada while in addiction

I met Mel on her first recovery tiktok page. I say first because shortly after we recorded this episode her page was taken down and she has since started up a new one. So the link below is for her new page she recently started telling her story again there! She spent years being stuck in trafficking in Ontario Canada. I was surprised to learn that prostitution is legal in Canada, it’s the trafficking of women that’s illegal. In this interview you’ll see how she inadvertently got caught up trafficking a friend when she was really just looking out for her. Now Mel is sober and has her kids back in her life after many years of not knowing if she’d be able to have a relationship with them again.
