Re-inventing Yourself: Malaika Kegode with Rev Paul Cowley

Malaika Kegode took a chance and left her rural Devon home in her early twenties, to escape what she describes as a toxic situation, when drugs and violence became part of her daily life. She made the massive life change with the support of her parents and she’s now a successful Bristol-based writer and performer. She’s always been drawn to stories of people who manage to re-invent themselves and in the first of two programmes, Malaika talks to Rev Paul Cowley, a man who has re-invented himself through-out his life, from prisoner to soldier and eventually to priest.
