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

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
