About The Book

As Seen on The Today Show

In this powerful memoir of survival and healing, Elizabeth Smart empowers readers to navigate life’s detours, embrace resilience, and find healing and purpose after adversity.

In Detours, Elizabeth Smart explores how trauma can derail one’s path in life and shares her struggles with captivity, reintegration, and resilience. Using the metaphor of life as a road, Smart introduces four key “Rest Stops” for navigating life’s detours—grieving lost paths, embracing change, seeking connections, and redefining destinations. Through themes of hope, community, and self-discovery, she inspires readers to find strength in their own journeys toward healing.
