  • Reimagine Your Future with Jason Wang

    Reimagine Your Future with Jason Wang
    Aug 10 2021
    On the final episode of season 1 we sit down for an incredible conversation with Jason Wang. Jason shares openly about growing up in poverty, in a neighbourhood where he was exposed to drugs and violence from a very young age. He shares about being subjected to abuse as a child, and about the impact that all of these things had on his life and trajectory. It's easy to see how the result of it all was an aggravated robbery charge that left 15 year old Jason with a 12 year prison sentence.  What is so remarkable about Jason and his story is his resilience and determination throughout his life. Ultimately, this has led him to become entrepreneur in residence for Schmidt Futures. He has created and leads Freeworld, an organization with a mission of bringing high wage careers to millions of returning citizens across America so they can live fulfilling positive lives, prison-free.

  • Seeing Is Believing with Chris Courchene

    Seeing Is Believing with Chris Courchene
    Jul 20 2021
    This week we sit down with Chris Courchene. Chris comes from Manitoba, one of Canada’s prairie provinces. Growing up, his mother, an Indian Residential Schools Survivor, was in and out of incarceration. Learning from his surroundings, and doing what he needed to do to survive, Chris spent much of his adolescence in and out of incarceration as well. It was when he had his son that he ultimately determined to turn his life around. He shares about his experience of gang culture in Winnipeg in the 90’s, about the impact of residential schools on his mother, and in turn on his upbringing; and about what it meant for him to get the chance to turn his life around, and to have a positive impact on the community he came from.
