Education
Have you ever been grateful for hitting rock bottom? Has hitting rock bottom shaped you into a better person today? Has experiencing a trauma made you grow as a human being? Although you do endure a period of pain, sometimes going through pain is absolutely necessary to find our purpose in life. I know my guest on today's WomanUp Wednesday Podcast can relate. Markie Ethier seems like your typical bubbly, motivated, and energetic female, but Markie has a very dark secret. Markie was sex trafficked at the age of 19 and struggled to find her way for many years. Now she's a successful Key Note Speaker, Business Woman, and an incredible wife and fur mom. She is near and dear to my heart, and an absolute warrior which is why I wanted to have her on my show to talk about her story. Sit down, grab your bestie, grab a notebook, and get comfy! DISCLAIMER: This episode is emotional and graphic. Sex trafficking, abuse, sexual assault, and domestic violence are some of the many topics discussed. Please listen with caution as it may be triggering.
