Child trafficking survivor, Coco Berthmann, explains how 20 seconds of insane courage changed her life and listeners will be inspired to fearlessly face their own to live a life of heroic bravery. Since her courageous escape at age fifteen from a lifetime of familial child sex trafficking, Coco Berthmann has dedicated her life to fearlessly challenging the status quo by demanding that society abolish human sex trafficking: a $53 trillion worldwide modern-day industry. As a counter-trafficking specialist, aspiring forensic neurologist, and keynote speaker, Coco delivers powerful presentations to teach about the logistics of Human Trafficking, as well as clearing misconceptions around modern-day slavery and trauma healing.
