I've been on camera for the wrong reasons before, and I don't promote much of my past, but I want to be honest about what I've lived through and help others avoid the same mistakes. I started a blog in 2019 on topics like relationships, lifestyle, church and the care system, and now I'm bringing those conversations here with a team of men from football, rugby and basketball who have experience and truth to share. I'm not totally comfortable being on camera, but I'm ready to be consistent and see where this goes.
Why I'm doing this
I've been on camera before for the wrong reasons, and I want this to be different. This project isn't about polishing a past I don't always promote — it's about using what I've been through to hopefully change the next generation. I'm speaking from my own life and experience, not as something I've learned second-hand.
I know it's awkward being on camera; I'm not even too comfortable, but I'm ready to launch this.
What I'll talk about
I wrote a blog back in 2019 and covered a bunch of topics — relationships, lifestyle, church and religion, prison, the children's home, and the foster care system. I'm planning to bring those conversations here. These are things I've lived through personally, so the intention is to be honest and direct about them.
This channel will be a place for real talk about growing up in different systems and dealing with the aftermath of that.
The team and the mission
I'm not doing this alone. There's a crew — a football team, rugby team, basketball team — men with experience and truth to share. Together, we want to change a lot of people's thinking and have honest conversations that might steer some folks in a better direction.
Expect a mixture of personal stories and group discussions; it's about challenging mindsets, not preaching perfection.
Consistency and what's next
My plan is to be consistent with this channel. I want you to see what we're up to and hear from me regularly. Thank you for listening — see you soon.
This is an invitation to stick around as we work out how this looks and gets better over time.

Hello, welcome everyone. Welcome to Legion's Word. It's been a long time coming. And you know what, I've been on the camera for the wrong reasons, you know. So now, and remember, I'm not even too comfortable, but I'm ready to launch this, yeah? Remember, I had a blog as well, like 2019, and I wrote it, and I've just done different topics. Relationship, lifestyle, church, religion, prison, the children's home, the foster care system. And remember, I've lived through that myself personally, and unfortunately, because that past is not really something I'm really promoting, but I feel I can change a lot of the next generation. And also, I've got a football team, rugby team, basketball team of man who's got so much experience and so much truth to talking it. And us as a team together, I think we're gonna change a lot of people's thinking and that's what we're gonna try and do. So moving forward, I'm gonna be consistent with this. So I hope to look forward to hearing from me and you're gonna see what we're up to. But thank you for listening, see you soon.
