00:00I was picked by someone when I was 18 years old. I had responded to a fake job ad. At
00:06the time,
00:06was just looking to financially support myself and was pretty desperate. And so I found myself
00:11responding to job ads. And fortunately, the ad I responded to was not real. Though by the time I
00:17had realized it was too late, I was picked for over a decade. You know, my mom and dad were
00:22definitely not perfect, but there was nothing really pointing me in that direction. It wasn't
00:27like immediately I was being trafficked. He had it set up to where I would meet certain
00:31individuals. And about a month into it, maybe a little bit more, by the time I had moved
00:36out of my home and there was no reality, I could never go back to it. I remember I was
00:40in the
00:41formal dining of like a really nice home. And this man looked at me and he said, do you not
00:46know what you do? And I said, no, I don't think so. And he told me that I have with
00:51people for
00:51money. I think that when I look back, I think there is this moment in time where you have
00:58this moment where you get to make it, you're at a crossroads and you have to make a decision.
01:02And unfortunately, I made the wrong one.
