Corey O'Donnell spent years working inside the New South Wales prison system.
During that time, he experienced the violence, trauma and everyday pressures that come with working behind the walls.
But when Corey eventually walked away from the prison system, part of the job came home with him.
In this episode of Prison Chronicles, Corey speaks openly about his career as a Prison Officer, the experiences that stayed with him, his battle with PTSD and the impact it had on his life.
He also talks about his road to recovery, including EMDR therapy, boxing, rebuilding his physical and mental health, and finding purpose beyond the prison system.
It's an honest conversation about the side of prison work the public rarely sees, and what can happen long after a Prison Officer walks out through the gates for the final time.
This is Doing Time From The Outside.
