S9E14 USA Mrs Arizona's Day After Christmas (Uploaded for Spotify)

Isolated from her family and friends, Jenna finds herself on the receiving end of abuse from a serial cheater. Prompted to leave by her mother-in-law, she packs up in the night and gets back up on her feet with the help of Section 8. Today, she has dedicated her life to helping others get the second chance she did.

Jenna Ghisolfo is the Founder and CEO of Housing Consultants of America, a national consulting firm dedicated to helping individuals experiencing homelessness move off the streets and into safe, stable housing. With over 18 years of experience in the affordable housing industry, she partners with property owners, nonprofits, and housing agencies across the country to ensure compliance while expanding access to housing for vulnerable populations. Jenna is also a national speaker and advocate for domestic violence survivors, using her voice to raise awareness about housing stability and crisis resources. A former Section 8 resident herself, she brings both professional expertise and lived experience to her mission. She currently serves as the United States of America’s Mrs. Arizona, using her platform to empower, inspire, and uplift communities across the nation.
