About this listen

Read by the author.

Using the written word as her witness statement, Jessica Willis Fisher gives a lacerating portrait of a girl finding her voice after years of being silenced and an unforgettable story of risk and faith.

Growing up the eldest daughter in a large, highly controlled, fundamentalist Christian household, Jessica Willis was groomed to perform, and to conform to her father's disturbing and chaotic teachings. Cut off from anything unapproved by her father, Jessica was persistently curious about the outside world, always wondering what was normal or potentially dangerous about her upbringing.

When the Willis family rocketed into fame after their appearances on multiple televised talent competitions in 2014, Jessica and her family landed their own reality TV show and toured across the globe, singing and dancing for millions. The world loved this beautiful family of kids; young and vivacious, the Willis's presented themselves to be extraordinary and happy. But the older and wiser Jessica got, the more she had to face that what was going on behind closed doors would forever be escalating.

In this elegant, harrowing story of the manipulation and codependency that defines abusive family relationships, Jessica Willis Fisher lets us see the formative moments of her childhood through her eyes. Fisher's haunting coming-of-age memoir captures the beauty and ugliness of a young woman finding her way—filled with longing, fear, confusion, secrecy, and most importantly, hope for the future.

Unspeakable: Surviving My Childhood and Finding My Voice shares:

  • An unflinching look at the manipulation and codependency that defines abusive family relationships
  • The formative moments of Jessica's childhood through her eyes
  • An unforgettable story of courage and strength

Beautifully written and monumental in its bravery, Fisher's story is proof that we can all become so much more that the things that happen to us.

It's hard to find words to applaud something so brave! I was so caught up in Jessica's story and wanted to know she would be okay one day and that she and her siblings would find some peace! Her message to survivors of sexual and religious abuse and trauma is wise beyond her years or credentials and her voice is during and articulate. Beyond that, she truly is an amazing writer!

So brave

So many survivors never find a voice. Thank you for giving the words to your unspeakable so others might also find their voice even if it’s never heard.

From a voiceless victim to a survivor with a voice of a warrior!

I loved that Jessica read her book. This added so much to the story. I admit I had to stop a couple of times and digest what she was telling us that happened. This is a hard book but a much needed book of a survivor and her story. I feel like I want to tell her how amazing she is and how proud of her I am. I would recommend this book to anyone.
