His Choice, Her Freedom: Julie's Story of Love and The Sacrifice He Made for Her

In this episode, Jae starts by opening up about her wedding day- how she wasn't allowed the full visit but still felt the beauty and support surrounding their love. She shares her powerful experience speaking at Nebraska Legislature, giving Nicholas the ultimate wedding gift of reading his statement to the judiciary committee.

Later, we dive into Julie and Todd's turbulent journey. When Todd, a habitual offender, faced the choice to snitch or serve time, he chose neither- opting to go on the run instead. High speed car chases, arrests, releases, court trials and plea deals are all a part of Julie and Todd's challenges with the law, leading up to Todd making a huge sacrifice to protect his wife and ensure they're ability to see each other.

Julie gets real about the emotional toll of being separated from Todd, the insecurities that creep in, and the frustration at the lack of rehabilitation opportunities for people like Todd, or Nicholas, in a flawed justice system.

It's a raw, and honest, conversation about love, sacrifice and the realities of life tethered to the prison system. Tune in for more on the realities behind loving someone on the inside.
