"We truly are, every one of us, living under a death sentence." The words from one of the most extraordinary podcast guests I have ever interviewed. Nick Yarris was on death row for 22 years for a crime that he DID NOT commit. Let that sink in... imagine spending 22 years of being tortured and abused in jail, thinking that you were going to die for a crime that you DID NOT commit. On this episode, Nick discussed dealing with abuse and life in prison, how he stayed motivated, maintaining positivity and hope throughout his time. Nick also shared what his life after prison looks like - sharing his remarkable story on stages, writing his books and in a Netflix documentary about him. This podcast truly moved me. Anyone who saw the live recording was both horrified yet incredibly inspired by Nick's story.
