Jayne Amelia speaks with the powerhouse Leslie Nolan who was trafficked at a young age after fleeing an abusive family; she eventually put her father in jail for his sexual abuse to prevent him from abusing others. 

"Leslie Nolan is the Design and Wellness Labs Associate Lab Leader at Karana Rising. She assists the Design and Wellness team in the execution of workshops, programs, and launches. She is a survivor of childhood, verbal, and emotional abuse, as well as sexual assault and a familial cult. She spent years of her early adulthood wandering aimlessly looking for a place of peace, and healing, and through God and his community she eventually found that. She spent years healing and growing a relationship with God, fellowship in the church, in therapy, with self-reflection and hard work. In recent years, she has pursued a Public Speaking career, and she has co-founded the Global Survivor Collaborative and partnered with various organizations to provide and participate in Human Trafficking awareness trainings and discussions. 

Leslie has managed various salons in Maryland, and is currently a partner at Crochet Braids and Weaves by Blessed and a H&R Manager/ Lead Stylist in the past of Essential Beauty Spa---the first natural hair salon to pioneer the natural hair movement servicing various local celebrities including OWN TV Star, Motivational Speaker & Author Iyanla Vanzant. She credits Jesus  her Lord & Savior for her success, believing that through him he guides her and helps her grow in the best possible way."
