INVISIBLE CAGES: WHEN FREE ISN'T FREE

What happens when one mistake follows you for the rest of your life?  Dr. Sheena Meade, CEO of the Clean Slate Initiative, calls it 'invisible cages' and for her it was 2004 and an $87 bounced check that led to her arrest. Despite making restitution, that arrest still appears on her record, today, and has created a lifelong lesson about second chances, collateral consequences, and turning her pain into purpose. These barriers are not lost on Sheena as there are millions of Americans still in invisible cages, even long after they've paid their debt to society. It was Sheena's personal journey that led her to becoming one of the nation's leading voices for automatic record clearance, criminal justice reform, the importance of owning your narrative, and how it is possible to emerge from life's most difficult moments. This is a conversation about resilience, redemption, freedom, and what it truly means to live your legacy out loud.
