Description

Today we talk to Starfish Project founder, Jenny McGee. Jenny and her team's entire goal is to help exploited women experience freedom, establish independence, and develop careers. The Starfish Project literally rescues women from being sexually trafficked and provides shelter, counseling, education, trade schools, and career opportunities. 100% of all Starfish Project sales go back into helping this mission, the current rescued women and the future ones. Jenny shares with us stories of walking into brothels in Asia and walking out with young women who are desperate for someone to see their dignity. Starfish Project is an ethical trade, non-profit organization with a social enterprise that cares for women coming out of human trafficking and exploitation. Starfish Project has employed over 125 women and has served thousands through our Community Outreach Services.Support the show (http://www.patreon.com/leahdarrow)

People are good. You might not think that if you listen to traditional news, but that's a lie. Everyday heroes and saints live among us and my goal is to introduce them to you.We are inspired by the words of Mother Teresa, "Do something beautiful for God. Do it with your life. Do it every day. Do it in your own way. But do it!” Leah Darrow, former model and contestant on America's Next Top Model, draws on her experience in the beauty industry to expose the lies we are told about our worth being tied to our appearance and instead invites us to look again at the real meaning of beauty in service to mankind.
