Episode description

Imagine walking out of prison with nothing but a few dollars in your pocket and nowhere to go. Society has moved on, doors are shut, and the odds are stacked against you. But what if someone believed in you enough to give you a second chance?

Today’s guest knows all about second chances—not just giving them but living them. From homelessness to business ownership, from rejection to award-winning success, his journey is a testament to resilience, redemption, and the power of never giving up.

He’s the founder of Good Samaritan Home, a non-profit helping people rebuild their lives after prison. He’s also an award-winning author whose novel, Running As Fast As I Can, has won over 30 literary awards. Please welcome to the Founders Podcast—John David Graham!
