What four vulnerabilities do traffickers exploit?
There are four main principles that actually get at vulnerabilities of trafficking. One is when you have little to no opportunities. Two is when you have little to no education. Three is when you have little to no income. And the fourth one, which is very important, is when you have unhealthy or no love that's coming from the family.
Patricia Watts is a resilient, visionary, and purpose-driven leadership strategist, US Army veteran, and the founder of WE Model USA and NWE Care. She is known for empowering women through faith, advocacy, and leadership.
Once you understand how big This criminal activity is, it happens all over. And when people don't think it's in their backyard, you are mistaken. Because right here in the United States, every city, every state, every county, every neighborhood has something of trafficking. And it's the second largest.

Who is Patricia Watts and how did military and State Department service shape her?
That's right. That's right. So before we go into your full interview, what can the viewers expect to learn about you in your episode of Women in Power?
I think that you will learn the whole concept of what a woman is from my earlier days to my beginning career until now. I think it speaks all about women empowerment and what we can achieve.
Beautiful, beautiful. So walk me through kind of those early days. Where'd you grow up? What were some of your early lessons that molded you into the Patricia that I have sitting in front of me today?
Yeah, so I am a Brooklyn New Yorker originally. Shout out BK. Yes. But my family, my father was a pastor and my mother and father both migrated from the South, Virginia and North Carolina, moved to New York. But by the time I got into my junior high school years, I had moved down to Newport News, Virginia. I stayed there until high school was completed in the church and in sports. But then I went into the military. I actually did 22 years in the military, deployed several times.
What branch were you in?
I was in the army and I actually my field was intelligence. And so traveled all around the world. I am my only child. But, you know, traveling has never been not part of my life. And until today, I still travel probably four times a month going in and outside of the world.
I mean, out of the US. You're on a weekly travel diet. I am.
I am.
I see it. I see it. So this is something that I ask a lot of our guests here. And I've heard this as sort of a narrative through line through a lot of our guests' experience. How does your faith inform the way that you conduct yourself in business?
Very important and a very useful question that you asked, because I believe that we were all put on this world, this earth for one reason, and that's to serve. And I believe that all throughout my life, that's my calling. I've been serving until you'll see the future of what I am doing as well.
And I don't know if we want to give, you know, the viewers here, we want to make sure that they have something to look forward to in the episode. So we're going to keep that a secret until you guys, if you want to know what's going on in the future with Patricia, you're going to have to go check out our episode. I'm sorry, we're not going to reveal it right now on this podcast. But talk to me a little bit about what's going on in the now with your business.
