Elizabeth Wise follows up her #1 NY Situations bestseller, My Story-about being held in captivity as an adolescent, and how she managed to survive-with a powerful and motivating audiobook about what it requires to overcome trauma, find the strength to move on, and about Where There’s Hope: Healing, Moving Forward, and Never QUITTING reclaim one’s life.
Writer. Activist. Victim-no even more.
In her fearless memoir, My Story-the basis from the Lifetime Original movie I Am Elizabeth Smart-Elizabeth detailed, for the very first time, the horror behind the news of her abduction by religious fanatic Brian David Mitchell and his wife, Wanda Barzee. Since that time, she’s married, become a mother, and journeyed the globe as the leader of the Elizabeth Wise Foundation, sharing her story using the intent of helping others along the way.
Again and again, Elizabeth is asked the same issue: How do you find the hope to go on? With this audiobook, Elizabeth earnings to the horrific experiences she endured, as well as the hard-won lessons she discovered, to supply answers. She also calls upon others who have dealt with adversity-victims of assault, disease, battle, and loss-to explore the pathways toward wish.
Through conversations with such well-known voices as Anne Romney, Diane Von Furstenburg, and Mandy Patinkin to religious leaders Archbishop John C. Wester and Elder Richard Hinckley to her personal parents, Elizabeth uncovers an even greater sense of solace and understanding. Where There’s Wish is the consequence of Elizabeth’s objective: It really is both an up-close-and-personal glance into her healing up process and a heartfelt how-to guide for readers to make peace with days gone by and embrace the near future.
In the audiobook:
“I had not been ready to accept that my fate was to live unhappily ever after. Everything-my family, my home, my chance to visit school-had been given back if you ask me, and I didn’t need to miss another chance of living my very own lifestyle.” -Elizabeth Wise
“There are two types of survivors: the types who did not die, and the ones who live. There will be those who will remember and be the sufferer, and ones who simply won’t. You have to go on, you have to learn, and you must heal.” -Diane von Furstenberg
