From Prisoner to CEO Anthony Olanipekun

Life After Prison will be back in a few weeks with a brand new series, but in the meantime Zak has been digging in the crates to bring you some of his favourite episodes from Season 1. In this episode Zak and Jules are joined by CEO, radio producer, presenter and DJ Anthony Olanipekun who left prison and founded music platform Soul Surge. Tony opens up about his life before, during and after prison, touching on how he is dealing with past trauma through therapy and describing the journey of starting his life again after release.
