From Robbing Banks To Becoming a Transformational Leader

How a Former Criminal Turned His Life Around to Empower Communities Across Australia

In this compelling episode, we speak with Jeffrey Morgan, a former bank robber who served 18 years in prison and has since transformed his life to become a beacon of hope and change. Now a motivational speaker, coach, and advocate, Jeffrey works closely with organisations like the Australian Defence Force, NRL, Sydney City Council, and Aboriginal communities across Australia to deliver programs that inspire change and growth.

Jeffrey shares his gripping story of survival, resilience, and redemption. We delve into the moments that changed his life forever, from losing loved ones while in custody to discovering his purpose. He discusses his journey from crime to coaching, how he rebuilt his life brick by brick, and the lessons he now teaches to help others overcome challenges and find their own paths to success.

This episode is packed with insights on discipline, self-reflection, and the power of second chances. Whether you’re looking for inspiration, motivation, or practical advice on personal growth, Jeffrey’s story will leave a lasting impact.
