In her interview, Phillips speaks on her experience advocating for her incarcerated and chronically ill husband.

She discusses the inhumane treatment of incarcerated people, such as lack of air conditioning in their units, lack of adequate healthcare, lack of quality food, and tampering of communication with loved ones, and the emotional toll the TDCJ inflicts on families and friends of incarcerated people.
