3 Year Old Bride to Cult Leader Speaks Out

CW: CSA, SA, Mentions of dr*g use. From the ages of 6 to 12, up to when the cult leader, Berg, died, Serena Kelley hid her identity. She was born as a chiId celebrity in the notorious The ChiIdren of God cult, known for their extreme ab*se practices of polygamy, pedoph*lia, forced chiId marriages, religious prost*tution, and chiId traff*cking. Daughter to Sara Kelley— part of leadership, and writer of “The Davidito Book”(CSA manuscript)— when Serena left the compound she continued to lie about who she was. As she had been brainwashed to lie, it was hard for her to track when she should tell the truth, which created a warped sense of identity. Serena describes how she worked her way back into the cult to retrieve a boy that she liked, what it was like escaping for a second time, and what it was like being out in the world, on her own, free to do whatever she wanted for the first time. Going from the s*x cult to now a fully s*xually charged environment in a club, she explains her methods at the time of processing the horrific things she went through as a child, involving a numbing with dr*g use, and dancing away the trauma. Serena also recounts what it was like when just months before his murd*r-suic*de, an adult Ricky Rodriguez, whom “The Davidito Book" was written about, contacted her wanting to know where the author (her mother) was. Serena reveals her journey with healing from the trauma, dealing with ill-equipped therapists, to ultimately finding plant medicine. Serena is now a writer and Trauma Recovery Specialist, helping others heal past traumas using methods to connect the mind, body, and soul to find peace and purpose in life.
