What was it like being behind the camera for the biggest moments of Price of Redemption?

This week, Preston Maddox joins Shawn Livingston on I Am Redemption to discuss his journey into videography, editing, and content creation, along with what it was like documenting two of the most important filming days of the upcoming feature film Price of Redemption

Preston was on set as major influencers made their acting debut, captured behind-the-scenes moments from the production, and witnessed the filming of intense combat sequences inspired by Shawn's service in the U.S. Army. We also discuss his path through ONNIT, lessons learned from working in media, why content creation is one of today's most valuable skills, and what's coming next for both Preston and I Am Redemption

Whether you're interested in filmmaking, entrepreneurship, storytelling, content creation, personal growth, or building a meaningful career, this episode is packed with valuable insights and behind-the-scenes stories

This week on I Am Redemption, Shawn Livingston sits down with Andrew Shebay, the director behind the documentary 100 Miles to Redemption and the upcoming feature film Price of Redemption

Why did Andrew choose this story to tell?

Why Shawn Livingston and his family?

And why did this project resonate with him on such a personal level?

In this episode, Andrew opens up about his own connection to addiction through family members, what drew him toward this story, and why he believed it deserved to become something much bigger than a documentary

They also go deep behind the scenes of creating Price of Redemption:

• filming Andrew’s first feature film
• building a crew with experience on major Hollywood productions
• casting the actors who portray Shawn and his family
• involving authentic community members throughout the movie
• creating emotionally intense scenes rooted in real life
• and the mission behind who this film is truly meant to impact

This is more than a movie

It’s a story about pain, family, addiction, purpose, redemption, and what happens after survival

Wendy Grijalva joins us on I Am Redemption for a very raw, real, honest, and emotional conversation most wouldn't publicly

In this episode, Wendy opens up about surviving trauma, battling eating disorders, struggling with substance abuse, navigating grief, losing herself, rebuilding her confidence through fitness and yoga, and ultimately finding her voice within the community

This conversation goes far beyond transformation photos or surface level motivation. We are about the pain that builds Identity, self worth, healing, and growth. We are Built Different to keep moving forward after life changes everything

Wendy shares what it was like trying to survive internally while appearing strong externally, the impact grief had on her life, and how fitness, recovery, movement, and community became part of rebuilding herself from the ground up
