[9] Her parents were missionaries which required them to move often before finally settling down in Charlevoix, Michigan, where Jetty Rae attended Charlevoix High School. [9] Jetty's mother started a theater group, called the Ragamuffins, in which Jetty held many roles. [9] Rae was initially introduced to songwriting through her affinity for poetry. [11]

Following her graduation from high school, Rae applied to Juilliard but was not accepted. [9] Jetty Rae eventually attended the Youth With a Mission (YWAM) discipleship training school in Kona, Hawaii where she partook in 3 mission trips over two years to China, Fiji, and Australia respectively. [9] After graduating in 2008, Jetty Rae returned to Michigan where she met her husband, Jason Stewart (to whom she now refers as her "husband-ger"). [12] The two initially met on Facebook [13] and were married at the Iberostar Paraiso del Mar on the Riviera Maya outside Cancun, Mexico on December 21, 2008.
