Gloria Masters was child sex trafficked for the first 16 years of her life. Leased by her father, trained by her grandmother, she had no one willing or able to help her.
Now an esteemed Author, Speaker and Founder: she is the woman behind the Global hand signal for under 16’s, released in 2023, to help resource children and combat abuse and trafficking. Chris & Beverley have an open conversation with Gloria about her work and how she balances her own self care too.
She is the founder of Handing the Shame Back foundation, a charity dedicated to adult survivors of child sexual abuse. She is the host of the YouTube and podcast channel of the same name, now in over 80 countires; presenting interviews and resources designed exclusively for survivors.
She has written 3 books: ‘On Angels Wings’ detailing her childhood, Flightpath to Healing; an experiential guide for adult survivors, and her third book Keeping kids Safe; a roadmap for parents & teachers on how to protect children from grooming and sexual abuse.
