In this episode, I sit down with Malcolm Dydo, Co-Founder and Executive Director of the Freedom Within Prison Project, a Santa Cruz, CA-based nonprofit dedicated to restoring wholeness to individuals, families, and communities impacted by incarceration.

We talk about the recent, devastating execution of Marcellus “Khaliifah” Williams in Missouri. While tapping into our anger and sadness for the broken prison system, we also explore our shared hope for what is changing and can change.

Malcolm shares a broader view of what it's like inside and what incarcerated folks are up against, as well as the many ways that volunteer programs (like Freedom Within) are working hard (with success!) to create new pathways for healing, growth, connection, and learning.

This episode is an exploration of what is possible if we're open to empathy, change, and healing for every human. And how emotional literacy and human connection are foundational elements for every human's healing journey - and that everyone deserves access to.
