Special | 57m 57s  | Video has closed captioning.

This is the compelling story of Margo Walsh, who literally built a business from her kitchen table, as a single mother of two. Her company, MaineWorks, exclusively employs ex-cons and people in recovery. We meet many of her employees and hear their stories of hope. Margot and her work give people a second chance to rebuild their lives, and a pathway back to the community and redemption.
