Welcome to the Fulfilling Destiny Podcast! In honour of Womens' History Month, join Jan-Marini Pacleb, Shawn Khalifa, Laura Murray and Raquel Funches as they talk about the incarceration systems, de-stigmatizing master statuses, educational attainment and more on this two-part special of the Fulfilling Destiny Podcast! 

These are interviews with those who had experienced incarceration and have underwent experiences of violence, racism, police brutality, homelessness, drug-use, and mentioned/witnessed inhumane treatment of others including instances sexual assault and suicide. Before the episode was recorded, I had spent an ample of time to go over what was safe for these guests to talk about and what they were willing to share in the realm of their comfort. 

While some of these topics are painful, these episodes are handled with care and we only covered them as briefly as possible. But these are lived experiences of those who went through a harsh system. But the topics of homelessness, financial poverty, period poverty, education attainment, growth in adversity and human compassion is to be the important take-away of these mature episodes.
