    Episode 28: Maevia Griffiths - Impact Filmmaker

    I met Maevia while studying at the Graduate Institute, Geneva and during her time there, despite being in an academic setting that normally does things in a certain way, she decided to find ways to be creative, specifically making films, to express information she learned and felt was important to share. In this episode we discuss her journey as well two films she made including "The Drop: when a drop of water mirrors the fall of social justice," and "Elles Les Invisibles" a film about 'undocumented' women domestic workers in Geneva.

Quan was given a life sentence for shooting and killing another man in a gang-related incident in Hollywood in 1999.

He began his journey towards inner freedom and despite knowing that he could have spent the rest of his life in prison he dedicated himself to helping others do the same. He was ultimately paroled from his life sentence in 2015 and has continued to help others on the inside and out of prison with multiple initiatives and ventures. One of those being Defy Ventures,” an entrepreneurship, career readiness & personal development training program for people with criminal histories.
