8 Life Lessons Sister Wives’ Janelle Brown Learned Way Too Late
Janelle Brown is opening up about a few life lessons she learned while being married to Kody Brown and sharing her life on Sister Wives.
Janelle Brown is sharing her knowledge of life and the lessons she has learned over the years before and while on Sister Wives. Over her 25 years of being married to Kody Brown, Janelle has learned a thing or two when it comes to navigating her life. Whether it’s embracing who she is or drawing a line in the sand, Janelle’s hoping to share her lessons learned with others.
The former second wife of Kody has always been more independent than the rest. Janelle has worked outside the family home since Sister Wives season 1 and their time in Lehi, Utah. At the start of her career, Janelle ran a small business called E Z Pantry, which was involved in the food storage industry. After the move to Las Vegas, Janelle got her real estate license. And since relocating to Flagstaff, Arizona, Janelle has been working with Plexus and starting her own wellness company. All of these career moves have made Janelle a tough cookie who isn’t willing to take anything from anyone, especially her lazy, soon-to-be ex-husband, Kody.

For Janelle, setting boundaries was an important life lesson learned. This past season of Sister Wives showed Janelle standing up for herself, especially when it came to Kody’s intense COVID-19 rules. At one point, the patriarch became so angry with his older children’s lack of obedience that he demanded Janelle kick out her two older sons. However, Janelle was prepared for Kody’s antics and noted that she was the only one on the tenancy agreement, noting she would do no such thing. Janelle drew a line in the sand with Kody that day as she made it clear he would not have power over her in her own home.

Janelle goes on to explain you should never apologize for the boundaries you set, as they are there for a reason. For years all of Kody’s wives have been forced to attend to his needs and desires. When big family discussions occur, many of the wives, including Janelle, could be heard keeping their worries to themselves. Now that Janelle has found her voice, she will not misplace it again, especially regarding her rights as a wife and woman.

According to Janelle’s message, it’s okay not to always fit in since people will eventually find their tribe.

In Janelle’s seventh point, she noted, “Ask, and you shall receive.” For the Sister Wives star, it was important to learn that you get out of life what you feel you deserve. So for years, Janelle thought she deserved a man who coveted more than one woman and enjoyed throwing tantrums. Now, Janelle is very aware of her worth, sharing that she’s making choices that will benefit her moving forward. Janelle did hint that this rule can be the hardest to master, but it is so worth trying out.

For now, Janelle’s taking life in stride and not worrying too much about what the future holds.
