Emily O'Brien made one bad decision that landed her in prison. While spending time with other inmates watching television and making popcorn, Emily also developed a business idea.

Emily chatted with Janet Fanaki, the host of RESILIENT PEOPLE about her experience and why this purpose is so important to her.
