Getting By: What We Earn Doesn't Define Us

Episode Summary

In today's episode, we sit down with Jackie, a mother of two from Houston, Texas. Unlike the participants in our previous episodes, Jackie explains that she viewed the America in One Room experience as less of a social experiment, and more of a mini-vacation — or at least that's what she went into the experience thinking. We talk to Jackie about how attending America In One Room has impacted her life, her relationship with her family, and touch on an issue she felt particularly passionate about — the minimum wage debate.
