Timea Nagy is a best-selling author and a Canadian survivor of Sex Trafficking. Her story has reached millions of people around the world. Michelle Furgielle is also a Canadian survivor of sex trafficking as well as an international speaker and educator.

 

In 2011, Michelle and Timea met and quickly formed a strong bond while presenting together and sharing their story at human trafficking conferences across Canada. Their shared passion for creating organic products designed to alleviate anxiety led to the founding of Timea's Market.

Ashley, another courageous Canadian survivor, initially joined the co-founders during the business's early stages and returned to the team in 2025. While Michelle and Timea are vocal advocates who openly discuss their experiences, Ashley prefers to work behind the scenes, focusing on production and managing booths at conferences across Ontario.

​

Together, the trio creates high-quality products and actively participates in conferences and Christmas markets, raising awareness of human trafficking. They are also committed to supporting other survivors navigating the court system, individuals embarking on their healing journeys, and frontline workers in high-stress environments. Through their work, they aim to foster healing, empowerment, and community support.
