Summary

Content Warning : This episode includes mention of self harm, sexual abuse, domestic violence, white supremacy and more. Please use discretion when listening.

In part 1 of our conversation, Former Tradwife Jennie Gage shares her journey of a life entrenched in Mormonism; navigating the complexities of young marriage, motherhood and the increasingly dangerous domestic violence situation she could not escape. So when she was approached about joining doTERRA, Jennie saw more than essential oil sales and an instant community, she saw the glimmering promise of freedom for her and her children... but hustle culture had other plans.
