In this episode of Her Audacity, we sit down with Donia Jessop, Mayor of Hildale, Utah, to talk about leadership, faith transitions, and rebuilding a community after deep hurt.
Donia shares what it took to step into public leadership, challenge long-standing systems, and move her town forward—often in the face of criticism and resistance. She reflects on motherhood, vulnerability, accountability, and the strength it takes to keep choosing progress when going backward would be easier.
This conversation is about standing firm, leading with humanity, and remembering one essential truth: you are enough.
Content note: This episode includes discussion of high-control religion and emotional harm. Listener discretion advised.
