Job Description

A new unscripted documentary series is now casting women who are currently living — or have previously lived — a “traditional wife” lifestyle. This project is a thoughtful, human exploration of why this lifestyle works for some women and why it may not for others.

The series is not a parody, political commentary, or hit piece. Producers are seeking authentic, real stories from women across a wide range of experiences, beliefs, and relationship statuses. Participants do not need a large social media following and are not expected to represent anyone but themselves.

Job Responsibilities

  • Share personal experiences and perspectives on living a traditional wife lifestyle (past or present)

  • Participate in on-camera interviews for an unscripted documentary series

  • Provide honest and thoughtful reflections on identity, relationships, and lifestyle choices

  • Maintain open communication with the production team

Requirements

  • Women who are currently embracing the traditional wife lifestyle

  • Women who have left the lifestyle (recently or long ago)

  • Married, divorced, separated, or questioning

  • Religious, secular, or anywhere in between

  • Women who feel empowered, fulfilled, misunderstood, regretful, or conflicted about the experience

  • Willingness to share personal story on camera

  • Open to participants from various locations

Compensation Details

  • Compensation details to be discussed with selected participants

  • Opportunity to be featured in a professionally produced documentary series

  • All inquiries kept confidential
