A Brit who was in and out of prison revealed how he turned life around - and is now founder and CEO of a $25million business. Lewis Raymond Taylor, 32, said he had a poor relationship with both parents as a child - and ended up turned to crime for attention.
As a teen he began shoplifting and first got arrested at just 13 - and the years that followed saw him expelled from school and even get an ASBO for criminal damage. Lewis was behind bars for the first time aged 18 and spent his late teens and early twenties in and out of prison for violence and drug offences, he said.
His last stint saw him serve 18 months for GBH after a fight which left his victim in a coma - and he knew when he came out, he wanted to do things differently. After taking advantage of the rehabilitation services in and after he left prison, he began finding his experiences were inspiring to others who asked for his help.
