The Re-Entry Journey: Episode 93 - Diane Kahn
Episode 93
Monday, 27 October, 2025
Life Beyond the Bars: How I help people move beyond prisonFor the past eight years, Diane Kahn has been working in the re-entry space, not as someone who has personally experienced incarceration, but as a passionate advocate and ally. As the founding member and Executive Director of Humans of San Quentin, Diane has spent the last seven years volunteering at San Quentin State Prison, helping incarcerated men earn their high school diplomas. But her work goes far deeper than education.Through her hands-on experience, Diane has witnessed the profound vulnerability and emotional intelligence of the people society too often writes off. This experience ignited in her an unstoppable dedication to share their stories, their art, their poetry, and their humanity with the outside world.Humans of San Quentin has grown into a powerful platform that shares the lives of thousands of incarcerated people through letters, art, poetry, and face-to-face interviews with people in prisons around the world. Each story shared transforms lives—helping those inside feel seen, heard, and connected to a world that has forgotten them.Most recently, Diane and her team launched a groundbreaking podcast that gives voice to both survivors of violent crimes and the individuals convicted of those crimes—creating facilitated meetings where healing, accountability, and reconciliation become possible. It’s not your typical true crime podcast; it’s about humanity, transformation, and the often-excluded stories that need to be heard.🎙️ New to streaming or looking to level up?
