{96} Cults, Trafficking, and Writing [Amanda Catarzi‪]‬ Have Hope; Will Travel

    • Christianity

In attempt to give their children a better life than the Italian circus they were raised in, Amanda’s parents found themselves in a cult. In this episode of Have Hope; Will Travel Amanda shares about that experience, compiled with her experience being sex and labor trafficked, and how writing has always been an escape for her. Now she’s a creative strategist, writer, and executive helping others live beyond their wildest dreams.















Questions Addressed









* How did you identify you were part of a cult?







* How did you identify you were being sex and labor trafficked?







* What has healing looked like?







* What do you wish everyone knew about cults and trafficking?







* What does it mean to be muted?







* What’s supportive if we have someone we think is going through similar circumstances?
