FOUR WASN'T FAILURE, IT WAS FINDING FAITH

from The Hustler Files Hosted by Lisa Reilly

What does it take to rebuild a life after four incarcerations, across four different decades, and stay the course when the path isn't easy? Today we welcome Tammy Franklin of Prison Fellowship, a woman, mother and wife whose lived experience, at every decade in her life, challenged her with incarceration, until a powerful transformation from God led her to serve others walking the same difficult road. Tammy shares how finding that faith with the only prayer she knew; 'God, please help me' was the final turning point to help her rebuild her life and find her purpose, with mentorship and love from the 'church women with the sparkly eyes'. Now working with Prison Fellowship, Tammy uses her voice to support justice-impacted individuals and families, offering guidance rooted in real-life experience. Her story is one of resilience, redemption, religion; all daily commitments required to stay on her path, one step at a time. This conversation reminds us that second chances are not just given; they are built, step by step, through courage, accountability, hope, and help from above.
