The Iron Parable Podcast

In this powerful episode, Brandi Voth shares how a billboard in Melbourne, Australia sparked a calling she never expected. What began as a restless, prayerful season — waking at 3 AM, open hands, open heart — became a decade-long journey into the fight against human trafficking. From leading a 400-woman global skincare team to founding The Power Hat Company, Brandi walks us through what it truly looks like to move your feet and serve where you are.
Brandi is the founder of The Power Hat Company, a business intentionally designed to create dignified, sustainable employment for survivors of trafficking. She is also connected with the Freedom Business Alliance, a global network of organizations creating jobs for survivors and addressing the vulnerability of poverty that fuels exploitation.
