Imagine enduring 16 years of unimaginable suffering at the hands of someone who should protect you. That's the reality Gloria Masters faced, born into sex slavery in 1960s New Zealand. In this gripping episode of 'Stop Child Abuse Now', hosted by Dr. Nancy Brown-Willis, Gloria shares her harrowing yet inspiring journey from being a victim of severe sexual, physical, and psychological abuse to becoming a beacon of hope for others.

This episode isn't just about recounting past horrors; it's about celebrating the human spirit's capacity to heal and inspire.
