In this powerful episode, Tavon Jamaal Partlow Sr. shares his transformative journey from a troubled past to becoming a devoted father and successful professional. He opens up about the lessons he learned during his time in prison, the challenges of reconnecting with his children, and the healing power of redemption.

Tavon dives deep into the importance of positive father figures, strong co-parenting dynamics, education, and personal growth. With raw honesty, he encourages listeners to rise above past mistakes, seek help when needed, and embrace the path of self-love, resilience, and purpose.

🌟 Tavon also shares details about his upcoming memoir, From Chains to Change—a deeply personal story of struggle, transformation, and hope. The book is a must-read for anyone seeking a fresh start or deeper healing.

Tavon reflects on the painful lessons learned during his 12 years in prison, including the most heartbreaking realization: “Time is the most precious thing I lost.”

With vulnerability and strength, he opens up about reconnecting with his children, the importance of fatherhood, and how choosing to love himself became the foundation for change:“Love yourself; it stops poor choices.”

He also speaks truth to the stigma around mental health, encouraging others not to suffer in silence: “It’s okay to seek therapeutic help.”
