Hello Beauties, my name is Sabri Skoda! Welcome & thank you for listening to my podcast, Living in the Devils Footsteps
Today's episode does have the same usual trigger warnings: eating disorders, suicide, suicide ideations, eating disorders, human sex trafficking, sexual assault, crimes against minors, drugging a minor, domestic violence & abuse, and addiction.
Today, I speak about my Eating Disorder and how it affected me throughout my life. December 3rd, 2022 was the day I finally decided to stop obsessing over eating & the way I saw food. I hold One Full Year of Sobriety OFF of my ED. Instead of forcing myself to not eat (anorexia) & forcing myself to throw up every time I felt I ate too much (bulimia); I choose to control the way I treat my body.. positively.
I now eat healthy.. maybe too healthy - my doctor says, but I also contain regular physical activity. Going to the gym has been a blessing to me because it saved my eating disorder & made me truly focus on what my body needs to stay in good shape & good health. I do this without obsessing over the way I look because I am beautiful the way I am (JUST LIKE YOU)! With implementing healthy habits, I am now proud of how my body is because I'm in control of my body, with healthy exercise; weight lifting, HIIT, cross training, cardio & yoga/stretching.
I know that I have spoken about my eating disorder before, but not into such great detail.

Thank you for listening and always REMIND YOURSELF: YOU ARE NOT A VICTIM, YOU ARE A SURVIVOR & I will see you next week. I love you all!
It’s my 3 year anniversary of sobriety, so thank you for tuning into todays podcast.
Today I go into some of my experiences during addiction, the struggles and how I turned those struggles into my strength. Addiction is a disease, just like other diseases. You may not notice physically but mentally it destroys you from the inside-out. If you last, you will start to notice the signs from the outside. Addiction impacts your life. Addiction is hard to address, hard to get help for and hard to fix; as you can never fix it. Addiction lives with you for the rest of your life, 24/7, every second of your life.
I have been a drug addict since the age of 15/16 years old (not too sure because those years were a blur for me) to the age of 19.
Now, I can say that I am successfully able to refrain from drugs for 3 years on July 25th! Sobriety birthdays are bigger than an actual birthday because this is the day you were basically born back into that person you were prior, to all the toxins you put in your body.
There is hope for you & if you take a quick listen to my episode maybe you can get inspired and be motivated to get yourself the help you need, as well.
Never feel embarrassed or scared to ask for help, that is the only way I got through it and ended up where I am today, ALIVE & PRESENT.
Remember: trying to heal is difficult, you must become comfortable with the uncomfortable but it will be worth it, in the end. Help will only work, if you put in the same effort, if not more, than the support you receive.

Thank you for listening to another podcast of, Living in the Devils Footsteps. It wouldn't have been possible to get this far, in my journey, if I hadn't started making these podcasts. It has been a huge step towards my healing and is the reason I am almost to 3 years of sobriety. I never thought people would step into my world and actually listen to my voice, but here I am. I started these podcasts, as a therapy tool, just like journal writing but instead, voice memos. I decided to upload these voice memos and actually take podcasting seriously, after the amazing feedback I was getting and so someone could hear my story, and become brave to conquer their own demons. I wasn't consistent, due to me taking my healing seriously; so I could be the best me, that I could be. Now I will be here every other week, until I am cleared for therapy every 3 weeks, since I'm finally at every other week, last month! Which has been only possible, through this pod. Channeling all my emotions on here, has been my life saver. Seeing the audience grow, is beautiful to see and I hope, as I am now more consistent, it will build back up, to what it used to be. So thank you thank you thank you, to you. You are a GEM.
Feel free to leave a 5 star rating (if that's what I deserve, for putting my heart and soul into your earphones) and so others: who may be struggling, may know someone struggling, or once were struggling themselves, can find that motivation within themselves to get help, find their passion or finally take a step forward to their next goal!

Today's story is a real survivor story, who was saved from enduring more hell, then a child should ever have to go through. Jose Alfaro is a true inspiration to a lot of people, me being one of them. Male sex trafficking stories are not often talked about, so this is why I wanted to share this empowering life experience. As I have been sex trafficked, it has been hard to continue life's realities after getting out of an environment where you are forced into things you never thought would happen. Listen to Jose's story, as it will bring awareness to human trafficking to not just females but mainly for males and the gay community. It is important for people to know that there are forces in life that you can't always control, but to be aware, may save your life or someone else's.Spread awareness and share this podcast to your friends; so we keep everyone aware of the dangers that are out there, in this world.TRIGGER WARNING: MAY INCLUDE ABUSE AGAINST CHILDREN, CHILDREN EXPLOITATION, SEX TRAFFICKING OF A MINOR, SEXUAL ABUSE, DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, SUICIDE, SUBSTANCE USE.Instagram: @livinginthedevilsfootsteps or @sabriskodaTikTok: @6oth6host6irlSnapchat: @sabriskoda13Share Your Story with a theme of - Mental health, substance abuse, domestic violence or human trafficking at the Email: LivingInTheDevilsFootsteps@gmail.com - You may be anonymous by just stating that in your email or include your name if you want!Thank you for taking your time, to listen to me speak, and I will see you all next week.Remember: You are NOT a VICTIM, You are A SURVIVOR!National Human Trafficking Hotline - Call: 1 (888) 373-7888 or SMS: 233733 (Text "HELP" or "INFO")Suicide and Crisis Lifeline - Call: 988 or SMS: 988SAMHSA’s National Helpline for Substance Abuse - Call: 1-800-662-4357 or SMS: 435748 (Text HELP4U)National Domestic Violence Hotline - Call: 1(800)-799-7233 or SMS: Text START to 88788ALL THESE LIFELINES ARE OPEN 24/7, SO WHATEVER DAY IT MAY BE, THEY ARE HERE TO HELP.

TRIGGER WARNINGS! DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, SEXUAL ASSAULT, RAPE, BEING DRUGGED, SUICIDE, THOUGHTS OF SUICIDE, DRUG USE...
In today's podcast, I talk about specific events in my life, where I experienced domestic violence. I go into the depths of 3 different relationships, that caused me to be faced with this criminal act. I talk about the acts of which I was both mentally, emotionally and some of the physical violence that occurred in those relationships. I don't go into too much detail on the physical violences that took place because I, myself have not processed that in therapy yet. I do, though, talk about the physical violences that was brought on by sexual abuse and manipulative gas-lighting that caused some of it. This resulted in being drugged prior to the act of physical abuse and caused me to take my own life, via suicide or trying to hurt myself, to try to end my life. These boys who looked like men took advantage of the fact that i was under the influence, after most of them would drug me and would therefore use my body. Being a minor, my naiveness definitely clouded my judgement about them. I thought i was in love and i thought they loved me the same, but if someone loves you, they NEVER take advantage of you mentally, physically, emotionally nor sexually.
If you, or a loved one, even an acquaintance is under-going these violent criminal acts, please reach out to me or to the

The Fallen Angel has risen. As I rise, I see all the people who did me wrong and I let them go. I’ve done wrong, as a result, and try to put all the broken pieces back together as best as I can. All we can do now, is drop the negativity in this world and replace it with the positive. By doing this, we are bringing peace and justice amongst ourselves.
In this episode I talk about the energy you give out in the world, is what you receive. I have had a tough life, but it doesn’t mean I deserved all that pain. Yes, I did do some wrong, but only because wrong was being done to me. Due to this act of giving out negative karma, is the reason i received even worse karma in return. Be careful with the energy you give out because one day it will kick you or people involved with you in the ass. Thank you for listening to me speak. Yours truly, Sabri Skoda.

We all struggle in our lives, but being your own struggle can pull you down for good. Be careful with your choices and be sure to voice them because without that choice you would not be where you are today. Stay safe, I love you all.
