About ExitCoachRadio.com

ExitCoachRadio.com was started in 2013 by Bill Black, a Certified Exit Planner who has been helping business owners plan for their Succession and Business Exit for over 30 years. "It's a private topic and there are many business owners who want to hear a lot of viewpoints to frame their planning, but they don't want to be public about their intentions yet", Black says.

"In addition, there are a lot of Advisors, Authors and Thought Leaders who are looking for new ways to differentiate and get their profile and thoughts out there, so Exit Coach Radio & Podcast was created to help Business Owners get great information from the Guests", Black continues.

We upload content daily, including a 20 minute interview and a 1 minute highlight, so listeners can come back and listen from their smartphone on their way to and from work and always have fresh content.

SPECIAL EVENT this Sunday 1/24 in Orange County CA

Join Bill Black and his Band. the Shenanigans Band

for entertainment, food and awareness at the

"Human Trafficking Survivors Foundation Open House and

Festival this Sunday from 1-5pm.

The United Nations estimates that 27 to 30 million individuals are currently caught in the global slave trade industry. According to the United States Department of State data, an estimated 600,000 to 820,000 men, women, and children are trafficked across international borders each year, approximately 70 percent are women and girls and up to 50 percent are minors. The data also illustrates that the majority of transnational victims are trafficked into commercial sexual exploitation. Some of the largest trafficking areas are in California including San Francisco, San Diego, Los Angeles, and Orange County.

Virginia Isaias created the Foundation for Survivors of Human Trafficking (FSTH), a small non-profit organization located in Santa Ana, after she and her infant daughter escaped from forced slavery and prostitution. Virginia works tirelessly to help prevent domestic violence and human trafficking and to help survivors restore their full dignity and reintegrate into society. Sadly, demand for services overwhelms their limited resources and currently runs solely on donations and the support from limited volunteers.

FSTH’S VISION:
A world without violence, slavery, and exploitation, survivors of human trafficking can live a dignified, happy and very successful life.

For more information about the Foundation visit FSTH.ORG
