Many people have experienced some form of trauma in their life. I decided at an early age that our trauma should not be what defines us; it’s what we choose to do with it that does. I was just 11 years old when I witnessed my father murder my mother. When no one believed me except one detective, I gathered evidence against my father, leading police to discover her body buried in another state.  After featuring my story on Forensic Files, I channeled my trauma into filmmaking and podcasting, gaining widespread recognition as the creator and subject of A Murder in Mansfield, a film directed by two-time Oscar winner Barbara Kopple. I share my unique perspective on surviving true crime and trauma every week, overcoming adversity, society, and popular culture. I also interview fellow trauma survivors, academics, advocates, and storytellers and explore what comes next.  You can learn more about Collier on his website: https://www.collierlandry.com
