Where Do I Belong
This is a memoir of Sarah Carrington. Born and raised in a religious community, Sarah knew nothing about the outside world. Everything she ate, wore, read, and did was governed by the beliefs of her community. A community she grew to call a cult.
Sarah spent most of her free time as a child in nature with her survival-enthusiast parents. She learned to survive and thrive in all seasons, with few supplies. Then her father died in a tragic accident.
As adolescence changed her body, it also changed the way some men treated her. At thirteen, needing to escape she left the commune. Woefully unprepared, with minimal education and no believable work skills, she teetered on the brink of homelessness. Her naivety drew her into a world of sex and drugs, without the rock and roll.
Despite enduring traumas and indignities, she became a sexually confident woman as she searched for a place to belong.
By age twenty-three, Sarah became an orphan, pregnant, a stepmother, and a guardian to her siblings. But-the world wasn't done with her yet.

Sarah Carrington
I’m Sarah Carrington—an indie author, nurse, and survivor. My life has been anything but ordinary, shaped by resilience, overcoming adversity, and personal growth. After growing up in a strict religious community, facing homelessness, and becoming a single mother overnight, I turned my experiences into a mission: to inspire others to rise above hardship and reclaim their strength.
My memoir, Where Do I Belong, shares my journey of survival, trauma recovery, and self-discovery. I recently completed nursing school and am beginning my career in healthcare, while continuing to write and share my story. I’m currently working on the follow-up to my memoir and a self-help book on resilience, healing, and empowerment. I also donate $1 from every book sale to cancer research in memory of a dear friend.
When I’m not working, you’ll find me exploring the outdoors, spending time with loved ones, or reading inspirational books with a strong cup of coffee.
Life doesn’t make you strong—rising above does. My goal is to remind people of that, one story at a time.
