CW: sexual assault, abuse, trafficking

Y'all, have we got an episode for you! This week, Katie & Aurelia are joined by Shaunestte Terrell, an attorney in Indianapolis who works with survivors of sexual assault and was a former prosecutor of human trafficking. We talk Law & Order SVU, undercover trafficking investigations, and how she helps survivors navigate the legal system. There is A LOT of amazing information in this episode and we are so glad Shaunestte was able to help us unpack these tough topics. Katie & Aurelia also talk about being pooped on by birds, figuratively and literally, their recent movie watches (we wish Amy Poehler was our mom!), and drag queen impersonations. Enjoy!
