Welcome to the UnShaw Podcast.
Today, I am thrilled to have David Shipley as our guest.
Born into a family with non-believing parents, David's upbringing was traditional in many ways, but his path diverged dramatically after his time at Birmingham University. Rising as a successful businessman, David seemed to have it all. However, in 2014, he made a decision that would alter the course of his life forever.
Embracing Catholicism after a profound religious experience, David embarked on a spiritual journey that led him to confront his past actions. His newfound faith collided with his past when he found himself serving time at Her Majesty's Pleasure, including a stay in the notorious Wandsworth Prison.
But David's story doesn't end there. Upon his release, he dedicated himself to a cause close to his heart: prison reform. His work has brought him into the national spotlight, appearing on various UK TV programs to shed light on the pressing issues within the penal system.
Today, David resides in Wales with his wife and young daughter, finding solace and purpose in his family and his mission to create positive change.
