About this episode
In this episode, I talk about Plato's Allegory of the Cave—and how it helped me stop lying to myself in prison. I was waiting for things to magically get better, instead of facing what was real. I also share a story about Kodak and a man in Florida who finally took the lead in his case. This episode is for anyone stuck, pretending it'll work out, hoping the judge will just understand. I've been there. Most people stay in the cave. You don't have to. If you're serious about preparing, it starts with turning around and seeing clearly.
