How To Screw Up and Still Succeed

  • Summary

  • What may seem like your greatest pain today can turn into your greatest strength. All you have to do is to have faith, and shift your mindset and believe that it’s possible to become the best version of yourself.

    In this episode of the Prosperity after Prison Podcast, we speak with Gethin Jones, a formerly incarcerated individual who transformed his life by developing a high level of self-awareness and emotional intelligence.

    Gethin grew up in a dysfunctional family where he was emotionally and physically abused and was often moved in between foster care and living with his biological mother. He was taken away from his family at a young age, which led to a pattern of self-destruction and a 20-year relationship with the criminal justice system. It was in 2006, at the age of 34, that he decided to change, believe in himself, and completely transform both his personal and professional life.

    Listen in to learn how you can learn to stay in the moment and develop the best version of yourself after incarceration. You will also learn the importance of having a trustworthy support network that helps support and nurture you in your life after incarceration.

    In this episode you will hear:

    ● [1:22] Gethin shares his rough childhood story and how it contributed to leading a criminal life at a young age.

    ● [10:20] How he was inspired by prison officers to change his life and start sharing stories of the impact of prison officers on prisoners.

    Notable Quotes:

    ● “Change is possible but no one is going to give it to you, you’re going to have to go out there and get it, and other people will support you in that journey.”- Gethin Jones [23:05]

    ● “The reason I went back to prison was because I never had a support network, I always believed that I could do this on my own and I didn’t need anyone else.”- Gethin Jones [25:09]

    ● “Our greatest pain can end up becoming our greatest strength.”- Gethin Jones [29:39]
