This podcast had me wanting to dig for child safety information from the initial introduction to Christy. Christy spent 20 years as a felony prosecutor in the King County Prosecutor's Office, mainly prosecuting child sex offenders.

With decades of public speaking experience and a deep understanding of predatory behaviour Christy now teaches parents and professionals how to keep children safe from sexual abuse and recognize problematic behavior both in-person and online.   This is a must podcast for any parent who is concerned of child safety in an ever changing world, how the same rules apply online as offline and the importance of open communication when it comes to keeping your children safe! .   Join our Facebook group here: (www.facebook.com/groups/461822665123720) chat to Christy or other likeminded community members who are Switching their Sitch, starting a small business or growing an Empire.   Tune in to our Podcast: Apple https://apple.co/3oEDYpv   Spotify https://spoti.fi/3lpGmi5
