Jenna Carlson grew up in Kissimmee, Florida, until moving with her family to Provo, Utah during high school. She then attended BYU where she received her bachelor's degree in English. During that time she met and married her husband, Jordan. Together they have three children and currently live in Vineyard, Utah. She's grateful for the opportunity to stay home with her kids while Jordan works for Chatbooks.
Jenna has always been an active member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, but like all members she has watched close friends and family leave the Church and dealt with the heartache and confusion that inevitably follows. After being a long-time fan of the podcast, she offered to help Ashly go through story submissions after Ashly mentioned she was overwhelmed by the task. Since then she has continued to help Ashly and Lauren in any way she can and loves the opportunity to work on the podcast with them! She is constantly inspired and uplifted by others' stories of coming back to the Savior and back to the church, and is grateful for the empathy she has gained for those going through faith crises of their own.
