Elissa Wall grew up as part of the FLDS, a far offshoot of Mormonism that practices polygamy. Seventeen years after leaving the community, she’s advocating for the women and girls who are still in it.

After Anita watched the Netflix docuseries "Keep Sweet," it was on her mind for weeks. She sat down with Elissa Wall, one of the central figures in the series, to talk about growing up in an isolated, polygamist religious community in which everything was decided for her – from what she could wear to whom she would marry. Elissa talks about adjusting to life outside the FLDS Church, her process of healing after a traumatic childhood and her ongoing journey of embodiment.
