Course Details
Overcoming a decade in Zimbabwe’s Prisons through this gripping keynote, I will take you on a journey through my life as a self-made businessman in the safari industry in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe. I’ll share details of an incident that led to my wrongful imprisonment, the emotional impact of my conviction without a body, against police evidence, and presumptions.
I’ll describe the horrendous and inconceivable conditions of overcrowding and high death rates in the cells, and how my decade-long nightmare birthed a string of life lessons.
Throughout my talk, I’ll show you photos and sketches to highlight the details of my experience and how I had to dig deep to find solutions to overcome the unimaginable, physically and mentally.
Following my keynote are 27 short video clips taken from the keynote content, each with a powerful message.
From “Breaking free from your prisons” to “Love and happiness,” I’ll cover a wide range of topics, including facing your fears, the power of forgiveness, and finding true freedom. With each clip, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of my journey and the life lessons I learned along the way.
By the end of my keynote, you’ll feel inspired to break free from any prisons holding you back and appreciate the value of family, love, support, and gratitude.
You’ll learn how to face your fears, find inner strength, and overcome even the most challenging circumstances as I learnt how Overcoming a decade in Zimbabwe’s Prisons.
Join me on this unforgettable journey, and discover the true meaning of freedom.
As a takeaway gift, you will be blessed with my best-seller digital book Beating Chains.

Rusty Labuschagne is a motivational speaker on the professional circuit. One is immediately struck by his sincerity and humility as he delivers a dramatic account of his transformational experience.
Rusty has been through a trauma few have experienced. In 2003, the successful Zimbabwean businessman, who ran a safari outfit, flew his own aircraft, and had a fishing resort on Lake Kariba, was framed by a poacher, the police, and the courts, and wrongfully convicted of drowning a poacher.
He talks and writes about being subjected to conditions most people would find unbearable, having to draw on his inner resources and strengths to endure the unimaginable. In the process, he developed not only a life-saving resilience but also empathy and a keen desire to help his fellow inmates.
