Success Lockdown: Life After Incarceration (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781735133294)

People make mistakes, but our society doesn't always make it easy for them to live them down. Dr. Tori Brown discovered this the hard way. While a student at Eastern Michigan University, she made a mistake that changed her life forever. She was charged with two felonies and sentenced to a year in the State of Michigan County Jail. At that time, no one, including her paid attorney, informed her how the convictions would forever impact her life. After serving her time, Dr. Brown continued her education, but ran into roadblocks when she could not find employment due to her felony convictions. The label of ex-felon branded her and she soon realized that the only way she could lock down success was to carve her own path; hence, she became her own boss. This book is a resource guide to help those who have been or are currently serving time in the penal system find success. But, it is also a resource guide for those who have hit roadblocks in other ways and need the strategies and business development advice that this book offers to help get them past those roadblocks. Dr. Brown walks her readers through strategies for surviving after incarceration. Strategies that she used for her own success! The story is the same for many inmates after being released from incarceration-the pressure of assimilating back into society and making good decisions creates a lot of pressure, especially when finding housing, employment, and getting an education becomes a challenge. What does a felon do when those decisions are clouded with shame, fear, loss of time, and small glimmers of hope? He or she must turn those lemons into lemonade, and this book is the answer on how to do that successfully! Success Lockdown: Life After Incarceration provides readers with successful steps for starting a business, growing the business, and sustaining oneself financially. People make mistakes, but just as Dr. Brown found success despite her mistake, so can anyone else. Be one of the many people who lockdown success after losing everything-this book holds the key. So, don't wait, start reading and unlock your success! www.DrToriBrown.com
