SHORT SUMMARY
At nineteen, Jillian Webster understands leaving the Jehovah’s Witnesses will have great consequences. Shunned by the religion, she will be forbidden to speak to her mother, stepfather, and younger siblings ever again.
But Jillian is a dreamer; she yearns to be free, to go out into the world and find the life of her dreams, a life she has been told since childhood doesn’t exist.
After years of heartache, she walks away from the Jehovah’s Witnesses, losing her family forever. Forging ahead with nothing but her backpack, Jillian sets out on a global journey across Europe, Africa, Southeast Asia and Australia in search of the life she risked everything for.
However, she soon learns the world is not what she imagined and finds herself more lost in her travels than found. Devastated, she continues to follow her heart, leading her to discover everything she’s ever dreamed of in the most unexpected place.
Scared to Life is the true story of one woman’s choice to follow her heart above all else, find life after loss and ultimately, discover her freedom by letting go.
