THE DEBUT MEMOIRAnne Gollert Hill
DISCOVER THE STORY

01 / THE BOOK

Getting out was
only the beginning.

Almost twenty years inside Scientology.
One decision to take her life back.

Anne’s search for answers led her into Scientology—and eventually into the Sea Org’s international management. In Escape to Joy, she shares her account of life in its highest ranks, working in proximity to David Miscavige and encountering Tom Cruise, John Travolta, and Kirstie Alley.

But this is more than a story about the world behind the curtain. It is about what happens after you leave it. With honesty and hard-won perspective, Anne traces the slow, extraordinary work of reclaiming her identity, trusting herself again, and discovering that joy was never something she had to earn.

FROM THE PAGES OF ESCAPE TO JOY

You cannot waste a life
you are still living.

You can lose time. You can lose seasons. But you cannot
waste a life that keeps choosing forward.

02 / MEET THE AUTHOR

Not the years lost.
The life found.

Anne Gollert Hill

Author. Speaker. Survivor. And a woman who knows that starting over is not the end of your story.

In August 2007, Anne walked away from Scientology with the clothes on her back and a few things in her purse. What followed was a journey back to herself—one small, determined step at a time.

Today, she writes and speaks about surviving coercive control, rebuilding a life on your own terms, and the truth at the heart of it all: you deserve joy, always.
