Surviving Child Exploitation & County Lines Grooming - Sabrina

Complete our 2025 Listener Survey: https://forms.gle/smJxoWJhr66qKG4Q7

We’d love to hear from you! Every year, we ask the Life After Prison audience to complete a short survey. Your answers help us understand what’s working, what we can improve, and they also help us show our funders the real impact of the show. It only takes a few minutes and your feedback really does make a difference.

Today we're joined by Sabrina – a survivor of exploitation, former county lines drug worker, and now founder of SH Consultancy & Training. Sabrina turned her own experiences of abuse and the criminal justice system into a mission to protect and educate at-risk young people. We discuss her journey through childhood trauma, prison, and life after release, and how she’s using her lived experience to make a real difference.

This podcast is also available as a video – just search Life After Prison on YouTube.
