210: On The Wings of Angels - JoJo Dries

On this week's episode of The 1 Girl Revolution Podcast, we welcome JoJo Dries, founder of On The Wings of Angels - a nonprofit organization that stands as a beacon of hope and support for individuals affected by domestic abuse.

JoJo is a survivor of childhood and domestic abuse – she was abused by her family members from the ages of 9-29 years old, until she finally broke free. JoJo founded On the Wings of Angels to serve other people who desire to remove themselves from toxic and abusive situations, and need direction, resources, community and support. JoJo firmly believes that she would not currently be living the personal and professional life of her dreams without the many people who rallied around her when she needed it most and she strives for On the Wings of Angels to do that for others.

JoJo is an author, speaker, branch manager for Delmar Mortgage, and all-around inspiring human being. Her book, The Lotus: How I Beat the Patriarchy, is a gripping and relatable account of how she removed herself from a toxic home environment. JoJo is a nationally sought-after speaker, bringing her empowering message to audiences across the country. JoJo married the love of her life, Paul, and has two sons and a rescue pup.
