Reentry isn’t just about jobs, housing, or paperwork—it’s about relationships.

In this powerful episode of Conviction Fiction, we dive deep into the relationships that returning citizens need to form in order to heal, stabilize, and grow—and the relationships that can quietly pull them back into survival mode.

We explore why motivation alone isn’t enough, how proximity shapes behavior, and why some relationships—no matter how familiar—must be re-evaluated during reentry. This episode speaks directly to returning citizens, family members, employers, and community leaders who want to understand what real support looks like after incarceration.

This is an honest, judgment-free conversation about boundaries, accountability, healing, and choosing alignment over attachment.

🎙️ Topics include:

• Why relationships matter more than motivation
• Supportive vs. enabling connections
• Mentorship, employment, and peer support
• The hidden danger of familiar environments
• A single question that can change your reentry journey

This episode is for anyone committed to changing the narrative around life after incarceration.
