A Second Chance Phenomena: Robin Mitchell's Comeback Story

Welcome to Inside Job—a podcast by offenders, for offenders. I’m your host, Cleve Bell, and today I’m joined by Carmen Bell, Riverside House's Community and Donor Relations Coordinator. 

In this episode of Inside Job, Carmen sits down with Robin Mitchell, a resident of Riverside House’s Emergency Shelter Program, to share his inspiring journey from homelessness to hope.

Robin opens up about the challenges he’s faced, the steps he's taken to rebuild his life, and the vision he’s pursuing for his future. A current student at Miami Dade College, Robin is working toward his Associate of Arts degree in Business Administration and plans to begin his Bachelor's in the same field this fall. He’s also employed at Sushi Saki and has dreams of one day owning and operating his own plantain field.

Please note: This episode was recorded onsite at the emergency shelter, so you may hear some background noise during the interview.
