In Part 1 of this two-part conversation, we’re honored to welcome poet Jessica Jocelyn—whose writing has been a healing touchstone for Amanda and may already be familiar to listeners of the podcast.

Jessica is a best-selling poet whose work explores love, loss, motherhood, and the complexities of family with raw emotional power. She’s the author of five volumes of poetry, all widely praised for their vulnerability, resonance, and reach.

In this episode, we discuss:

  • Jessica’s childhood with a mother who felt more like a cult leader
  • Her experience as an adult convert in the Jehovah’s Witnesses—what led her there, and how she found her way out
  • Her forthcoming poetry collection, Paper Flowers, releasing August 31, 2025

This is the first time Jessica has shared her full story on record—and it’s a wild, heartbreaking, and healing ride.

We can’t wait for you to hear it.
