Prison Time: When Truth Becomes Your Freedom

Prison Time: When Truth Becomes Your Freedom
Julie De Jesus with Dave Durocher

iseeyouliving.com @ISeeYouLiving @Angel_dave66 @theothersideacademy From nearly 20 years behind bars to becoming the executive director and co-founder of The Other Side Academy, Dave Durocher’s story is raw, redemptive, and unforgettable. In this episode, Dave shares how a lifetime of crime and addiction ended the day he chose a radically different path—one built on brutal honesty, accountability, and service. Hear how The Other Side Academy operates a unique, peer-run residential programwhere every staff member is a graduate—and every conversation calls people to tell the truth, own their choices, and change their lives. If you’ve ever wondered whether people can truly turn their lives around—or what it really takes to break cycles of addiction and incarceration—this conversation will challenge and inspire you. 🎧 Listen in for: • Dave’s unflinching account of life in and out of prison • How “calling people out” with love and truth saves lives • Why peer-led treatment works when other programs fail
