    Behind the Walls: What's Really Happening at Potosi Correctional Center, and Why Prison Reform Can’t Wait

    In this powerful episode, Blake Elsner sits down with Katy Chappell — a passionate advocate for prison reform — to unpack a story that will challenge the way you see accountability, punishment, and human dignity. At the center of this conversation is Macaulay Boschen. He’s 12 months away from freedom. But right now? He’s in solitary confinement inside a maximum security prison. Not because of a new crime. Not because of disciplinary action. But because he’s close to release. Inmates serving life sentences don’t take kindly to someone “seeing daylight soon.” For his own safety, he’s been isolated — cut off, alone, confined. And here’s the hard truth: Solitary confinement doesn’t protect mental health. It doesn’t rehabilitate. It doesn’t restore. Katy shares her own recovery journey and why she believes transparency, accountability, and basic human dignity must exist — even inside prison walls. This episode isn’t about excusing crime. It’s about asking better questions. ✔️ What does justice actually look like? ✔️ How do we protect someone who’s preparing to reenter society? ✔️ And where is the line between punishment and inhumanity? This conversation will make you uncomfortable. Good. Growth doesn’t happen in comfort. 🎙️ Tune in to Episode 59 of Elevate with Elsner for a raw, real, and necessary discussion. Because real elevation means facing the hard conversations — not avoiding them.
