“You’re the antidote to Andrew Tate.”

Words I never expected to hear from students and teachers. ❤️

Nearly 1,000 young people. One incredibly powerful day at @bedford_academy_bedford speaking on behalf of @innersparkuk 

We had conversations that desperately need to happen in EVERY school.

Misogyny, Masculinity, Respect, Mental health, Self-worth Resilience.

Some uncomfortable conversations. But ones we simply cannot afford to avoid.

I wasn’t there to lecture these young people.

I was there to challenge their thinking and show them that REAL strength isn’t about power or control. It’s about courage, kindness and respect.

The messages I’ve received since about the impact of these talks have been incredible. ❤️

But here’s what I believe…

If we don’t teach young people what healthy masculinity looks like, someone else will teach them their version.

Our young people deserve better role models.

And sometimes, just ONE conversation can change the direction of a young person’s life.

If you agree, please SHARE this post. Let’s get this message into more schools. 🙏

And to every headteacher, teacher, college or university leader reading this, if you’d like me to come and inspire your students, please get in touch.

Are we doing enough to challenge the harmful messages young people are exposed to?

I’ve been reflecting today on the last two years of my life…

And I realised something I probably don’t say enough.

I’m proud of myself. ❤️

Proud of the stages I’ve stood on, the thousands of people I’ve spoken to and, more importantly, the people I’ve hopefully helped to believe in themselves again.

For years, I searched for what success was supposed to look like.

Now I know.

For me, success is purpose.

Using everything I’ve been through — the pain, setbacks and lessons — to help and serve others.

But amongst all these memories are two people whose pride means more to me than any stage or applause ever could.

My mum and my son. ❤️

Mum, wherever you are, I hope you’re looking down thinking, “I’m proud of you, son.”

And to my son, I hope when you look at me, you see a dad who kept going, found his purpose and used his life to make a difference.

I hope you’re proud of me too. ❤️

I’ve found my purpose. And I’m only just getting started.

What does living with purpose mean to you? 👇
