Jeremy Melton & Maddie Atkinson Season 1 Episode 22

What is your Impact?

What happens when a 19-year-old makes one life-altering mistake—and spends the next 20 years behind bars reflecting on it?

In this powerful episode, Jeremy and Maddie sit down with Myron Fontaine, better known as The Prison Dr, to unpack his remarkable journey from armed robbery to national prison prevention specialist. Myron now leads an organization that mentors at-risk youth in all 50 states, making house calls, working with law enforcement, and offering families a lifeline.

He shares raw stories, hard-earned wisdom, and unapologetic truths about parenting, social media, faith, and the silent epidemic destroying our children: fatherlessness.
