Becoming Emmy

Becoming Emmy is a powerful and deeply honest memoir by Emmy Myers that tells the true story of trafficking, survival, and the long road to healing.

Through raw storytelling and lived experience, Emmy shares what it means to be trafficked, struggle with addiction, and feel invisible in plain sight while still finding the courage to rebuild a life one choice at a time. This book does not sensationalize trauma. Instead, it offers an authentic look at survival, recovery, and hope through compassion, accountability, and perseverance.

As a survivor and national advocate for human trafficking awareness, Emmy Myers uses her voice to educate, challenge assumptions, and inspire change. She is the founder of Lacey’s Hope Project, a Wisconsin based nonprofit, and a speaker and trainer for healthcare, education, and law enforcement professionals. Her work focuses on prevention, compassionate response, and effective intervention for those impacted by exploitation.

Becoming Emmy is a meaningful read for anyone seeking to better understand the realities of trafficking, the complexity of healing, and the strength required to reclaim identity and purpose. This book aligns closely with Grace in Motion’s mission to support women on their journey toward dignity, restoration, and lasting change.
