Ex-convict, Scott Keighran, joins us on this episode after being in prison for an accumulation of 7 years. During his second sentence, he wrote poems and decided to write a book with small explanations behind the reasoning of each poem. He gives us some extra insights of why he pushed through to getting the book published and the positive impact he wishes to make. No longer being held back from his past transgressions, Scott wishes to use his life to encourage others to make better choices before it escalates to becoming fatal.

In this episode, I've brought on a friend of mine, Michael, who reached out to me wanting to find ways to get his story and message out about self-development/self-actualisation. He touches on a few points in this episode that you may need to come back and touch on after watching it once through. Take your time watching it as well, it may be a lot to take in, in one sitting. Enjoy!
March 20th, 2023: Driving home after grocery shopping, blissfully listening to Kane Brown's album "Different Man" while eating chocolate, completely relaxed believing I was almost home from a long day, but completely ignorant of the fact that this would be the end of my long term relationship with my 370Z.To sum up my experience with this car in one word, it would be: sanctuary. Living with numerous housemates, working at different jobs, making friends and losing friends, this car was the rock between it all. The only time I could completely relax, feel safe, be myself without expectations or obligations was in this car.I never took it for granted. Every time I got in it, I cherished it as if it was going to be my last. Because no one knew when it was going to be our last.
"You know, if they did something like this, it would be way better." "There needs to be more events like this." "People need to put more effort in." We've all heard people say things like this before and we sometimes think "Well, if you see something that needs to be done, put up your hand and say that you volunteer to organise doing it." Are you a 'watcher' or a 'doer'? I encourage you to become a doer. Don't just stand there and complain about everything that could be better, or done right, and not do anything about it. Do you want things to be better? Then start doing them yourself and you'll see everyone will follow suit! King Up!
