🎧 Episode 9 – From Foster care to Fatherhood and Faith

In this 3-part interview, James G. Welcome sits down with Jamal — a man whose life journey took him from foster care and personal loss to wearing the badge as a correctional officer and police officer.

This conversation dives into:
🔹 Misconceptions of Corrections – What really goes on behind the badge and behind the gates
🔹 Empathy in Corrections – The power of compassion in a system built on control
🔹 A Mosaic of Family – Rebuilding what was broken, redefining fatherhood, and breaking generational cycles

Jamal’s story is real, raw, and redemptive. This episode is for anyone who’s ever been misunderstood, underestimated, or searching for purpose beyond pain.

🎙️ Tap in and hear what legacy sounds like.

🎧 Title: Episode 7, Part 2 – From Prison to Property, Tesla Dreams & Land Clearing

Spotify Description:

In Part 2 of our powerful conversation, Nick opens up about a haunting moment inside—talking to an inmate serving life without parole. That moment hit hard and forced him to rethink everything. What if he never came home? What if his mom passed before he got the chance to hold her again?

This part of the journey is about realization, reflection, and raw truth. From the weight of a potential life sentence to the motivation to do better, Nick’s path proves you don’t need to break—you can build.

💬 “That talk about life without parole changed everything—I knew I had to level up.”
