Amanda Knox ON: Motherhood, the Fallibility of the Criminal Justice System, and How to Grow through Post Traumatic Stress
Amanda Knox spent four years in an Italian prison following a wrongful conviction for the murder of her roommate: a sentence that was ultimately overturned by the Italian Supreme Court. She is now a mother, author, journalist, and co-host of the "Labyrinths" podcast alongside her husband Christopher Robinson. In this episode we talk about her journey to freedom, how motherhood has influenced her mindset, healing and growth after trauma, and what's next for her.
