Beyond the Streets: A Conversation with Chris Abeso on Change, Choice & Chances

Shades Of Reality by Shardia O'Connor

Episode notes

In this conversation, I sit down with Chris Abeso to explore his journey from lived experience of gang involvement, violence and crime to creating positive change within communities.

Chris shares his story, the lessons he has learned, and the work he now does supporting young people, schools, prisons and community organisations, helping to bridge the gap between disadvantage, education and opportunity.

This is not just a conversation about the streets. It’s about identity, choices, resilience, responsibility and the possibility of change.

A powerful discussion around what happens when people are given the opportunity, support and belief to choose a different path.
