    Send us a text

    Obscurity shares her heartbreaking story of surviving familial trafficking, abuse, and torture at the hands of her parents and brother. She reveals the unimaginable trauma she endured during her childhood and the lifelong pain she has carried since.

    Through her candid account, Obscurity sheds light on the hidden reality of familial abuse and the impact it has on survivors. Despite the darkness she’s faced, her story is one of courage and resilience, offering hope to others who have endured similar experiences.

    This episode dives deep into the importance of breaking the silence, raising awareness about trafficking within families, and supporting survivors in their healing journey.

    Familial trafficking involves exploiting a child within their own family for goods, money, or services, often by parents but also by other relatives like siblings or guardians. In child sex trafficking, victims may be groomed or coerced into sexual acts, often linked to the creation and distribution of child sexual abuse material.

    In this episode, Kobias shares about the years spent homeless, friendless and vulnerable. At just 11 years old, Kobias made a friend. Unbeknownst to them, this friendship would turn their lives upside down. Kobias was pulled into the dark world of grooming by the father of their best friend. What began as a seemingly innocent friendship soon turned into years of manipulation, betrayal and physical and sexual abuse. By 15, they were in a full-blown relationship with their friend's father, which ended on the verge of death.

    Kobias opens up about the early signs of grooming, the emotional toll of being targeted by someone they trusted, and the strength it took to understand and confront what had happened. Their story sheds light on the insidious tactics of grooming and the lasting journey of healing.

    **Trigger Warning: This episode includes discussions of grooming and abuse.**
