Description

What happens when your father is worshiped as a prophet and feared as a predator? In this powerful episode, Justin Yentes sits down with Rachel Jeffs, daughter of infamous FLDS leader Warren Jeffs, and Tawni Browning, a survivor advocate who helps people rebuild after escaping cults and trafficking. Together, they pull back the curtain on the hidden world of the FLDS, its control, secrecy, and the deep trauma it inflicts on everyone, especially the women and children. But this isn’t just a story of suffering. It’s a story of power reclaimed.

Key Moments:

  • Inside the FLDS: Rachel grew up cut off from the outside and controlled by fear.
  • The Prophet’s Daughter: Warren Jeffs’ rise to power, controlling tactics, and abuse.
  • The Breaking Point: The revelation that spurred her to find the courage to escape.
  • Rebuilding a Life: Discovering her strength and voice as she raised her children alone.
  • Empowering Others: Tawni and Rachel discuss the strength of those who stand up and bring the truth to light.

This episode is for anyone who’s ever felt trapped, silenced, or powerless, and for those who want to understand how faith, fear, and control can intertwine in dangerous ways. You’ll walk away with a deeper understanding of resilience, advocacy, and what it truly means to rebuild a life after trauma.
