Your starting line doesn't have to define you.
My upbringing wasn't great.
But I remember thinking - I have to, and I CAN - break the cycle. That single thought changed my life.
At 17, I dropped out of school. At 18, I became a father for the first time, and left the violence and chaos of my family council house without a penny to my name, determined to rewrite my story.
By 30, I was a successful PR agency owner with a #1 best-selling book. We were working with some of the UK’s leading brands, entrepreneurs and celebrities.
Using that influence, I helped to raise more than a million pounds for sick children.
