Welcome to Shine on Success, where we examine the lives of those who transform adversity into powerful change. I'm your host, Dionne Malush, and today we have a truly inspiring guest, Jeff Deskovic, founder of the Jeffrey Deskovic Foundation for Justice. Jeff's story is one of resilience and dedication, having spent 16 years wrongfully imprisoned before being exonerated by DNA evidence. Now, he focuses on advocacy, restorative justice, and supporting formerly incarcerated individuals.

In this episode, Jeff shares the emotional moment he learned of his impending release and the incredible journey from wrongful conviction to freedom. He discusses the psychological challenges of incarceration, the role of faith and education in his survival, and the inspiring work of his foundation, which has freed 14 wrongfully convicted individuals and helped pass nine laws.

Jeff also provides insights into how he navigated life post-exoneration, the importance of never giving up, and his formula for overcoming adversity. His story is a testament to the power of perseverance, hope, and the human spirit.
