After freeing herself from an early life in the Fundamentalist Church, Elissa reinvented herself and her career several times. Yet at the heart of all her work is her incredible storytelling abilities. Most recently, she appeared in the documentary, Keep Sweet: Pray & Obey, in which she shared a bit of her journey and healing. The production made it clear that Elissa’s wisdom and poise are unrivaled, and that there was so much more to her story than four poignant episodes could illustrate. We are so grateful Elissa was willing to share the rest of what came next for her with us.  Elissa’s website http://www.elissawall.com Elissa’s book, “Stolen Innocence” https://amzn.to/3SqMQL7 Elissa’s Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/elissa.wall Holding Out Help, Salt Lake City https://holdingouthelp.org/ Cherish Families, Short Creek https://cherishfamilies.org/ Short Creek Dream Center https://www.shortcreekdreamcenter.org/ Washington Post statistics on Rape https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2018/10/06/less-than-percent-rapes-lead-felony-convictions-least-percent-victims-face-emotional-physical-consequences/ Women’s Health on Warren Jeffs sentence https://www.womenshealthmag.com/life/a40220506/warren-jeffs-now/ Free + Confidential resources: somethingwaswrong.com/resources
