Introducing My Most Personal Series Yet: “Voices of the Child of Polygamy”
No child chooses where to be born.
No child chooses polygamy.
And yet, those who grow up in it often carry the consequences the longest, emotionally, mentally, and silently.
For years, I’ve battled with my own story. The confusion. The shame. The loneliness masked behind obedience and culture. I was raised in a polygamous home. For most of my life, I didn’t even know how much that impacted me. It became apparent when I became an adult trying to make sense of my broken pieces.
This blog series and soon, my book is not just a project.
It’s a release.
It’s healing.
It’s the truth, finally given a voice.
🎙 What to Expect
In this upcoming series, I will:
- Share my raw, unfiltered experiences growing up in a polygamous family
- Talk about the emotional cost ,the fake smiles, silent tears, and identity crises
- Explore mental health struggles often triggered or worsened by childhood confusion
- Walk you through how I’m learning to cope, heal, and reclaim myself as an adult child of polygamy
But this is not just about me.
🗣 The Voices of Others
This series will also feature the real stories of adults who grew up in polygamous homes. Some were first wives’ children. Others were born into second, third, or even secret families. Their truths are different, but one thing connects them all:
👉🏽 None of them chose the system. But all of them had to survive it.
Some stories will break your heart.
Others might challenge what you thought you knew.
A few may even surprise you with their peace.
This series isn’t about judging polygamy. It’s about finally giving the children ,now adults , the microphone they never had.
A Book Is Coming
This blog series is just the beginning.
A book is on the way.
Titled “Is Polygamy a Mess? – Voices of the Child of Polygamy”, it will go deeper. It will explore the emotional layers and cultural silence. It will examine the challenging survival of those who were born into something confusing. We didn’t understand or choose it.
Why I’m Doing This
Because healing begins with telling the truth.
Because culture should never silence pain.
And because there are so many like me who’ve never been asked:
“How did polygamy affect you?”
Stay Tuned

We’re about to open a conversation the world too often skips.
This time, it’s the child’s voice , now grown , that will lead.
