Reintegrating into Society After Incarceration

In the series end of our interview with Harlan Yazzie, he let's us into the fallout in his personal life after being incarcerated: his relationships with his family, especially his children. But his story is also about second chances. He is stepping into the light and starting fresh with a new perspective on what's important in this life. Join us as we wrap up our conversation with Harlan.

    Agreed, which is why we found a community member like Harlen. It was a great opportunity to get him on but a personal great experience to meet him in person. He is the real deal and we appreciated his honesty. 🤙🏾

    Right off, the interviewer talks about "services". That right there is the problem. Yazzie gently guides him back to self determination, which IS the answer. I'm a recovered, not cured, alcoholic. There are similarities. This man is wise and patient, I hope the interviewer catches on.

    Thanks for your comment. We're assuming we thought people need to rely on services? That was the point of the question. The point of the question is to publicly ask them if there is a service for problems in the community. I agree a lot of problems can be overcome by the individual themselves but doesn't hurt to ask if there is a program out there, that we could've highlighted if there is an individual watching and could utilize that service. Does that make sense? Ahe' hee for sharing a piece of your personal history. How many years sober are you? Keep up the great work and wish you all the best! 🤙🏾

    @@Spagoshi ,Enough was enough and I picked up the phone book and called Alcoholics Anonymous. I didn't delay, I went immediately. I stayed quiet and listened first. Started sharing, found someone who agreed to be a temporary sponsor. Meetings, meetings, meetings. Found a serious room without much cacaphony. Temp sponsor advised moving on to a permanent sponsor. I found her in a woman's group. She worked a very strong program, she had helped other women. Together we studied the book, word for word, in order. She advised me through all 12 steps, vigorously. From call to completing all 12 steps, and reading every single word in the book took about 18 months. I maintain and practice all steps. That's it, very briefly. Results may vary. 😊

    I did time with Harlan. I got out bk in 2021. I've been doing good ever since. I was sorry to hear that Harlan violated his probation, but at least now he's out and I'm glad to hear that. 👍🏽
