14/06/2022Present and Sober Podcast Episode 54Susan Joy: Lessons Learnt from Prison

The thought of going to prison is enough to strike the fear of God into most of us. By its very nature, prison is designed to be out of our comfort zone, a deterrent, a punishment. But does it do what it is 'designed' to do? What are the true realities of prison sub-culture and what would you do if you were there? This week we have the inspirational Susan Joy back with us as she reflects on the lessons and harsh realities of the prison system. We cover the challenges and the gifts of one of life's most challenging experiences.
