Vulnerability, Human Trafficking, and The Church (unfiltered) with Raleigh Sadler

Confidence and Coffee

In today’s episode of Confidence and Coffee, I’m joined by author and advocate Raleigh Sadler, founder of Let My People Go, for a raw and redemptive conversation about how trafficking, vulnerability, and exploitation often begin in places we overlook... including our own relationships.

We dive deep into the heart behind Raleigh’s book, Vulnerable: Rethinking Human Trafficking, and how real love doesn’t rescue, fix, or control... it frees.

If you’ve ever:

• Tried to save someone who didn’t want saving
• Lost yourself in a toxic relationship
• Wondered how your faith intersects with justice and advocacy

… this episode is going to speak to both your heart and your healing.

Raleigh shares:

• How vulnerability plays a role in trafficking and exploitation
• Why traffickers often look like "helpers" at first
• How churches can unknowingly enable harm, and how they can shift
• What it means to see people as image-bearers, not projects
• How you can make a difference, without burning out or being a savior

Whether you’re navigating broken relationships, struggling to let go, or just trying to understand your worth beyond what you can do for others — this conversation is a wake-up call to walk in truth, compassion, and boundaries.
