Black Eyes and Bad Mormons w/ Heather Gay

We all know Heather Gay as our blunt, relatable best friend (with a mysterious black eye *eye roll*) on "Real Housewives of Salt Lake City" and as the founder of Beauty Lab & Laser (with the legendary parking lot). But some of her actual friends, family and community see her as nothing but a “Bad Mormon”.

If you watch Real Housewives of Salt Lake City you know that most of Heather’s storyline for her past three seasons on the show has revolved around her experience untangling herself and beliefs from that of the Mormon Church and exposing the brutal repercussions her vocalness about her departure has had on both her personal life and relationships. Heather was born into Mormonism and has spent most of her life wrestling with a gnawing feeling that she “didn’t fit” the mold of a “good” Mormon woman. In more recent years, while simultaneously accepting a starring role on Bravo’s hit show RHOSLC, Heather has officially filed to withdraw from the church, start her life anew, and…WRITE A BOOK detailing the secrets, darkness.

With writing that is vulnerable, witty, and painfully truthful Heather details her innermost thoughts and internal tug-of-war between duty to self and duty to God. Exposing secrets she once held sacred, “Bad Mormon” is an unfiltered look at the religion that broke her heart.
