James Monahan: Out of Bounds Nation / Second Chances

Providing second chances to individuals with a criminal past through entrepreneurial, educational, and vocational programs.

In this episode, Dean Newlund and James Monahan discuss:

Forging a small business incubator.
Creation and branding of the prison theme.
Giving back to nonprofits that help the incarcerated or the families of the incarcerated.
The legal barriers that felons face after prison.

Key Takeaways:

Helping people to push past the fear of interacting with people that have been in prison by making use of stats and success stories.
Working to build revenue and help the community.
Most felons just made a mistake or a wrong choice and need that second chance to prove themselves.
“Change the way you look at things, and things will change.”
