Born into the FLDS and married as teenagers, Ange and Cade’s story reads like a slow-burning escape: ritualized control, a prophet’s death, and a community split that left them adrift. When rebellion and heartbreak push them apart, two restless youths choose very different paths—one into the unbridled thrill of apostasy, the other into a furious search for meaning.
Together they unlearn a lifetime of rules, rebuild their lives, and begin to parent and love on their own terms.
This episode traces the ache and the light: the trauma of coercion, the tenderness of small mercies, and the fierce work of healing. It’s an intimate, hopeful portrait of two people who refused to let a closed world define their future—and who now tell their story to help others find the courage to leave.
