What Stigma Do You Have To Deal With When You Have a Loved One In Jail?
Description
In this episode, Zak and Jules hear from listeners about the judgement they have faced because they have a family member in prison.
They also talk about how long they would wait before telling a potential partner they have been to jail, and the shame and judgement attached to having a sentence. Later, Zak and Jules spend some time discussing ways to deal with the judgement that comes from co-workers, strangers and even friends when you are supporting someone in jail.
