WE'RE BACK and season 5 is in full swing. What's changed? The theme of The Launchcast has gotten more specific with stories of Leadership & Turnaround at the center of everything. Same deep dive interviews, just different perspectives. On today's show, the Launchdad sits down with the incredible Alphonso James for a story you're not going to believe.
Alphonso James was a 17-year-old child in 1985 when he was arrested and falsely convicted of 1st Degree Intentional Homicide for the murder of a man he’d never seen or met. After a brief two-day trial, he was sentenced to Life plus 5 years in prison. Although he was physically confined and dealt with seemingly impossible obstacles to his release, Alphonso found freedom and liberation within himself. He went from a 3rd grade reading level to earning degrees in theology and culinary arts and authoring a memoir. Alphonso worked faithfully and with courageous belief on his own process of inner healing, and today he walks in a hard-earned spirit of love and forgiveness. With tireless persistence, and the work of the Wisconsin Innocence Project, Alphonso was finally freed in 2017 after 32 years of confinement for a crime he did not commit. Besides righting the wrong of his conviction once and for all, Alphonso is committed to inspiring others to break free of the prisons within themselves and pursue their own journey of healing.
Find out how Alphonso was able to perform his own turnaround miracle and how he became a leader to those in his community.
