Nic speaks with Dunia, founder of A Life of Choices. After the devastating experience of her son receiving a life sentence following youth violence, Dunia channelled her pain into action; creating spaces to support people and families affected by the criminal justice system.  

In this episode, she reflects on:
✔️ The reality of watching a young person get pulled into exploitation and violence
✔️ Why families of perpetrators must be part of the conversation, not excluded from it
✔️ The unseen impact on parents and siblings when a loved one goes into custody 

Dunia’s courage and determination shine through, challenging narratives, creating support, and driving vital conversations about how we change the narrative on exploited children, break the cycle of violence and reduce reoffending.
