In this gripping episode of Donald Dunn’s Studio, Jenisue Jessen shares her extraordinary journey from surviving child trafficking to becoming a global force for freedom. Exploited from the age of four and enduring unimaginable trauma, Jenisue not only found the strength to break free but went on to found Compass 31, an international counter-trafficking organization operating in over 40 countries.

Together, Donald and Jenisue confront the harsh realities of human trafficking—how it hides in plain sight, why survivors often go unseen, and how cultural forces and corruption allow it to persist. Jenisue’s story is one of unbreakable resilience, faith, and the fight to protect others from suffering the same fate.

Key themes in this episode:

• Jenisue’s early life of abuse and survival in Missouri
• The reality of trafficking beyond stereotypes
• How trauma impacts survivors long after the escape
• The founding and global reach of Compass 31
• Why situational awareness and community action are essential in stopping trafficking

This is not just a story of survival—it’s a call to awareness, compassion, and action.
