About this listen

In this powerful episode of Finish the Damn Book, Susie Schaefer sits down with bestselling author and women’s advocate Saffron Gustafson, who began writing her book My Name Is Saffron while serving time in federal prison. From solitary confinement with a bendable pencil to becoming a bestselling author, Saffron shares how journaling became her lifeline and how her experiences inspired Maree Haven, a nonprofit dedicated to helping women transition after incarceration. This is a story of resilience, redemption, and reclaiming your voice—even in the darkest of places.
