How to reset your life after going to prison?

ep 14: You get a phone call from a friend who’s asking to be picked up. He has a reputation as a dodgy character but you agree to help him out. Before you know it, you’re being pursued by a police car. It’s now that your friend tells you he’s carrying something he shouldn’t be.

You think about driving away but you suddenly find yourself surrounded. You and your mate are dragged out of the car and the police find cocaine. You will end up being sentenced to 32 months in prison. And you will share a cell with the person who brought this chaos into your life to start with.

Today we discover how Grant dealt with having his freedom taken away. And ask, how has Grant’s perception of himself as a man been altered since spending time in prison?

Alex Melia, and the Stories of Men team are on a mission to uncover what it means to live an independent and meaningful life. We'll be sharing this knowledge with you every week.

We’d like to extend our appreciation to today’s guest, Grant. The humility, magnanimity and calmness  he shows in talking about extremely difficult moments in his life is inspirational to witness. His story also provides a vital part of the puzzle as we try to piece together what it means to be a man in today’s world.
