Tell all of them to F%$K OFF!

My fellow convicts, I'm finally back, and this time, the stakes are HIGH! Listen to a story of self reflection as I confess my distain for the past 5+ years of my financial success. My sorrow still creates excitement as it forces this podcast down your ears with one simple message, "do not stop looking inside your mind untill a raw seed of happiness sprouts". It won't be easy, but your passion must be found before you can proceed.

Recovery (After Prison Release)

Recovery (After Prison Release)

That feeling of being in "Auto-Pilot" mode while incarcerated can often continue after being released. This can lead to not "dealing"... trying to not deal with people affected by your actions because we think there's too much to complete after coming home can take a toll. The weight can be unbearable even when you think everything is going great. It's time to take a second to breathe, and recover from the shit storm you just went through.

Being SCARED is okay

Being SCARED is okay

I get scared at some of the choices I make every day. Coming home can be very scary. People don't understand what it's like to be locked in a cage. Understanding that fear can change how you manage your future.
