Episode #30: "From the Crack Era to Real Estate Success" featuring Marcus Miller

In this powerful and deeply personal episode of 17 Winters, I sit down with Marcus Miller — a Lansing native whose journey from the streets to success is nothing short of remarkable.

Marcus shares his story of growing up in Lansing during the crack era, his early involvement in the drug trade, and the painful consequences that led to him serving 12 years in prison. Now a respected real estate agent at a prestigious firm, Marcus opens up about the lessons he learned, the hardships he endured, and the mindset shift that helped him rebuild his life.

One of the most moving parts of this conversation is when Marcus opens his "Book of Life" — a notebook filled with journal entries he wrote while incarcerated. We read one of those raw and reflective passages on air.

This is more than a story of redemption — it’s a testament to resilience, growth, and the power of owning your narrative.

Don’t miss this unforgettable episode.
Real stories. Real lessons. Real Lansing.

Real stories. Real lessons. Real Lansing.
