In this episode, John opens up about a chapter most people never see—the time when life pulled him into a dark place, but purpose pulled him out. He shares raw memories from his stay in prison, the lessons that reshaped him, and the path that ultimately led him into healthcare. This is a story about redemption, resilience, and how even in the worst environments, a good heart can still find its way forward.
