“Naomi”
Survivor of Prostitution and Sexual Exploitation; Nurse Practitioner; Singer
Naomi was prostituted as a 21 year old after a childhood of sexual exploitation. When she entered the sex trade, she thought she was making a choice, but came to realize that “choice” was based off of life experiences involving exploitation. Naomi left the sex trade after 15 years and eventually earned her nurse practitioner’s degree.
“It has taken 15 years of healing to recover and be a woman in this world without needing a man to approve of me. I would tell young girls to never feel like they have to please someone when your heart tells you different.”
