Breaking Boundaries: Entrepreneurship Behind Prison Walls with John McLaughlin

  

About John

Having built a successful company from scratch, author John McLaughlin decided that he wanted to teach others how to do the same. In his fifties and with no teaching experience, his only job offer was at a minimum-security prison camp. Having no experience with prisons or the incarcerated, McLaughlin told his first class on his first day, “I am going to learn a lot more from you than you could possibly learn from me.” Lifeline to a Soul takes the reader inside the fence and chronicles the victories and challenges McLaughlin faced as a first-time teacher in this strange world. His experience will entertain, enlighten, and educate anyone who is curious about what life is like inside a rural minimum-security prison camp.

We chat about the defining moment that sparked his entrepreneurial spirit - witnessing his dad being laid off after years at a company. John shares this experience with a mix of empathy and a touch of frustration, highlighting the importance of taking control of your own destiny.
