    Prison Changed Me… For the Better | Danneka Fivey

    ⚠️ Trigger Warning: This episode contains discussions around prison, trauma, mental health, and difficult life experiences that some listeners may find distressing. In this powerful episode of You Look Happier, I’m joined by Danneka Fivey, who opens up about her time in prison and the reality of what that experience was truly like. Danneka shares the moments that led her there, the emotional impact it had on her, and what it feels like to hit rock bottom. This isn’t just a story about prison, it’s about what happened to Danneka afterwards. We talk about how she made the decision to change, how she got her head down, educated herself, and rebuilt her life from the inside out. From prison to becoming a qualified personal trainer, her story is one of resilience, discipline, and transformation. This is a raw, honest conversation about accountability, growth, and proving that your past doesn’t have to define your future! If you’ve ever felt stuck, lost, or like you’ve gone too far to come back from — this episode is for you. Links - https://www.instagram.com/fivestarfitness2/ Hosted on Acast.
