EP 001 What is Background Check Podcast?
Background Check Podcast is all about helping people with a past realize their future and have success, no matter what their background check reads.
We all make mistakes, some more than others (that's me), but we can all change and rise above our past. But in the process of bouncing back, there are obstacles in our way and the biggest one is the background check. Whether it's buying a home, working in a ministry, employment, renting an apartment, background checks are a part of our lives now.
On the podcast I will give tips, tricks, suggestions, on how to navigate life with mark on your background. We will interview CEO's who run felon friendly businesses and have second chance programs. We will interview people who have successfully reentered society and are doing great. Wrongfully convicted people have a great story to tell and we'll hear from them as well. Parole lawyers, School Superintendents, Bankers, Reentry Programs, prison support programs, and much more.
This first episode I just share a little of my story and talk about why I’m doing the podcast. I hope you enjoy the show.
