Summary

On this special Giving Tuesday episode, Ginger, Jai and Erin welcome their friend Rachael Athearn back to the podcast to give you a glimpse of how the Short Creek Dream Center (located at the former home of Warren Jeffs, the FLDS polygamist cult leader) has done a complete 180 to become a place of hope. In a house where women and children used to be raped, manipulated and stalked day and night, they’re now rediscovering their identity, healing from the past, and learning to laugh again… all because of the love and support of someone a lot like you.
