Lola’s journey is one of resilience, reinvention, and the harsh realities of second chances.
Fresh out of prison after serving two years, she’s determined to rebuild her life, starting with her new hairdressing business. But with every step forward comes the weight of her past—a record that shuts doors, a parole officer who walks the line between accountability and restriction, and the ever-present threat of old habits creeping back in.
In this deep dive, we explore the tightrope Lola must walk: isolation, societal stigma, and the precarious balance between freedom and slipping back into the patterns that led her here. Can she rise above the barriers and make 2025 her year to thrive, or will the obstacles prove too much?
A gripping, real-time look at the challenges of reintegration, the strength it takes to fight for a new life, and the critical role of community and support in making a second chance possible.
This is Lola’s story—a raw, thought-provoking reflection on what it means to start over.
