Welcome to The Path Forward Podcast™. My name is Augie Ghilarducci, and I know what it's like to need a second chance. After making some really horrible choices and bad decisions, I found myself incarcerated for 13 years. My path allowed me to face my mistakes, to admit my greed, and to re-discover my faith. On this podcast, I will be bringing incredible guests who have walked down the path of re-entry. Their journeys provide inspiration, hope, and resources. Please join me on The Path Forward Podcast™, where incarceration doesn't define us; it's just one chapter of our book. There are many chapters yet to be written.
