5 Things I Will NEVER Do Again Because I Went To FEDERAL PRISON
About this episode
1. One Drink Can Cost Everything
A DUI isn't just a ticket—it can wreck your career, relationships, and freedom. I'll never take that risk again. A rideshare is always cheaper than the consequences.
2. Felons and Firearms Don't Mix
Being near a gun after a felony conviction isn't just illegal—it's a fast track back to prison. I won't make that mistake twice.
3. No More Jury Duty for Me
I used to see jury duty as a hassle. Now, I've lost that right. It's a reminder of what a felony conviction takes away.
4. I Won't Judge Someone by Their Worst Day
I met people in prison who weren't "bad"—they made mistakes, just like I did. A past mistake isn't the whole story.
5. No More Excuses
I broke the law. No one made me. Owning it hurt, but it was the only way forward.
