Today I’m honored to have back on the show for a third time: child sexual abuse and sex industry survivor, mother, wife, multi-dimensional transformational storyteller, former gifted student, Metaphysical Practitioner and trauma recovery expert, intuitive healer, spiritual counselor, transformational life coach, and absolute inspiration: Katie Lynn Navi
A little about Katie in case you missed our first episode where Katie shared her incredible testimony: Katie experienced trauma in her very young and formative years and was extremely misunderstood as a child due to her extra-sensory perceptions and lack of words or concepts for the things she tried to explain that she knew or could see. Paranormal experiences were very normal for her and in turn, she developed a fascination from very young for supernatural phenomena. In school, she advanced into being placed into the gifted and talented education - or GATE - programs and was selected for leadership conferences and going away to represent her school at leadership conferences and retreats to help develop her writing and speaking. She was part of Odyssey of the Mind and youth ministry. As she got older, Katie would internally battle the inner ‘knowing’ of her intuition versus the strict path her parents expected of her as the daughter of a military father and eventually settled on working in the medical field. It was after this decision that she would experience a series of events that would begin to push her into the realms of discovering MK ULTRA and questioning the western medicine model.
This time around, Katie is going to take us on a journey into a period of her life where she was scouted once again - but this time into the world of web cam models and online sex work. After 10 years of experiencing burnout in the medical field, Katie’s frustration boiled to the point of no return and she began to seek out an exciting new career. One day, she stumbled on an ad that advertised “Mom’s make $500+ a day”. It was a recruiter for a webcam platform.
Katie was immediately scooped up by a business owner that ran his own webcam platform called Angel Girl Studios and offered to pay her to do his marketing and generate leads for him. She thought she was doing something good that was helping to empower women. They started recruiting women from all over the world, and Katie discovered there were not really a lot of regulations with the women who were coming out of different countries. She started to think that there were prostitution rings operating where the women didn’t have choice in what they did online. It didn’t take long for her to see how much this industry was taking from the women that were being targeted instead of empowering them.
What Katie didn’t know until she got into the thick of it was that the web cam world was more of a cult in itself - and the implications of entering into this world had more of an effect on her mental health than she could have anticipated. Katie was used as a front woman for AngelGirlStudios and was considered a “Director of recruitment and model trainer”. Eventually, she was even called the “CEO and President” of the company just because the owner thought that it would attract more women if the business was ‘woman owned’.
Katie didn’t own anything and didn’t make anything either. All the money she made was always taken by the people that were above her. Katie was basically a slave inside her own home. She (like many targeted individuals) began experiencing gang-stalking and realized that the ‘new exciting job’ she found might have put her right in the thick of a nefarious human trafficking intelligence operation
