This companion paper takes readers "live" into facilitating an Offender Resettlement Journey (ORJ); the symbolic, spatial walk Jane Ball developed with Peter Garrett for the Virginia criminal justice system. The ORJ isn't just talking about an offender's journey; it's experiencing it viscerally. Ball uses a school reunion analogy: finding yourself behaving like your 19-year-old self because being in that space brings out those roles. During one ORJ, a 16-year-old daughter learned her childhood "university visits" to her father were actually prison visits. The facilitator must balance power differences; coaching leadership not to explain or justify when hearing what isn't working; while keeping their own emotions in check. A participant noted: "You get a guy with a tattoo on his face... then his vulnerability really shows." The paper also reflects on adapting ORJs online during COVID, and how practitioners develop the presence required; through first-hand experience, coaching, and deliberate reflection.
