Would you be able to survive if you lost your freedom? What if you received a life sentence without the possibility of parole? Would your brain adapt? Is it possible to change the life script that got you there? How does your brain change when you connect the dots and take responsibility in genuinely understanding your past behavior? In this episode, Jessica speaks with Nick Woodall who served 32 years for murder before being granted a commutation by Governor Brown in 2018. Learn what it takes to steer your mind on a new pathway even while living 24 hours a day in prison where rehabilitation and striving to do better is seen as weakness and can get you killed. Nick was released in 2019. In a little over a year, he launched his company, POSSE Solutions, specializing in the preparation of Executive Clemency Applications, Parole Board Suitability Hearings, and Criminal Psychological Evaluations, more specifically, understanding the insights to why one committed the crime. He is also the staff paralegal at The Center for Life Without Parole Studies in Lancaster, CA.
