Cheryl Armstrong’s nightmare began at 16 years old—when she was sentenced to decades in prison and ultimately spent 26 years incarcerated. In this powerful episode of Nightmare Success In and Out, Cheryl takes us inside the reality of surviving nearly three decades behind the wall without losing hope—and the inner transformation that changed everything.

Now a two-time international bestselling author, keynote speaker, and founder of Plant Your Energy, Cheryl shares how daily discipline, intentional energy, and radical ownership of your choices can turn even the darkest chapter into purpose. This conversation is about accountability, redemption, and breaking free from the mental prisons that hold so many of us—inside or out.
