About Sean:
Sean Cambron was incarcerated at age 18 in 1988 for felony murder and spent 32 years behind bars. Upon entering the prison system, Sean was presented with two options from his point of view – he could either get busy dying or get busy living. It took a little while, but eventually, Sean went all-in on helping others after years of work on himself. Since his release, he has revisited the Idaho minimum-security prison on many occasions sharing with others his journeys, discoveries, and challenges. He is a peer support specialist in Twin Falls and a Free-to-Succeed mentor. He is creating a podcast featuring interviews with previously incarcerated men and women, discussing their journeys and challenges. He is also developing a 501(c) nonprofit benefiting children with incarcerated parents to for participation in extracurricular activities through their schools and in other areas of the community, as well as higher education.

Sean has completed two and a half years of college for business and human resources which he found to be “incredibly fulfilling and shockingly fun,” created some workshops that are based in art therapy, has a TikTok that is built as a TEDx to help others, and has also started a YouTube channel called “32 and Beyond.”

“Captivating Conversations” is an ongoing educational experience series, hosted by the Old Idaho Penitentiary and featuring a variety of guest speakers and topics ranging from the history of the Idaho State Penitentiary to the issues facing correctional institutions today.
