The beginning of FM Ellis' story is one that mirrors that of so many others. Thankfully, she was able to make it to the other side of her trauma. After being sexually abused at the age of 7, her life spiraled out of control. In her memoir, My Life as a Lemon, she details just how deep that spiral actually was. In our conversation, Faye gives me some insight on how she set herself free and how we can create a world for others to do the same.
You can purchase her book on Amazon.
If you have been impacted or you’re currently being impacted by sexual abuse (or any abuse for that matter) please get help. Call 800.656.HOPE and know that I am always here if you need someone to listen.
