FAMILY FOREST AND FROTH

In this episode, we hear about a moving life journey filled with pain, addiction and the ultimate power of love to change a life.

This emotional story demonstrates how understanding the power of love can change everything for anyone who is willing to listen and make a change.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
Family

My upbringing was based on nothing more than raw brutal survival. I regularly escaped school to a nearby pond which became a haven for me, playing games that were always about pretending to be someone else.

Because my dad was in and out of prison there was never enough food and so I started stealing. My conditioning for stealing grew with time and I know now I was creating a belief system around my identity.

At 9 years old, I ended up in the system and despite being moved around different children’s homes I never found love or happiness anywhere.

My crimes continued over the years, but I was now consumed by a wave of dark anger towards my parents, who I now held responsible for the lifestyle I was involved in.

During a period in prison, the suicide of a close friend brought me to a point of despair and misery where finally I began to feel shame and remorse about the way I had been living my life.

As a complete contrast, the ensuing years were all about a loving family.

I was determined that my daughter would grow up in an in a warm, supportive and loving environment with the things I had never had, and I achieved this.

My daughter has grown up to be an amazing and well-balanced individual who has 2 children of her own who I adore.
Forest

My passion for Nottingham Forest Football club led me to research all professional clubs in order to understand better the club I loved. When I was in prison Nottingham Forest Football club was my reason for living. I now understand this as a need to be part of a tribe and create an identity for myself
Froth

Years later I met Paul Lowe and along with our mutual love of Nottingham Forest we shared a serious drink addiction. We spent hours talking about our tortured pasts and how we might have had a different life.
Life and Legacy

My children have given me a true purpose in life and a reason to live.

My children have been a powerful force of love and my legacy is that my children haven’t grown up in the same way as me.

BEST MOMENTS

‘If all that glitters isn’t gold maybe that which doesn’t glitter is gold’

‘I started drinking at 13 to numb the pain and suffering of my shameful existence’

‘A reason for life’

‘Family became the glue that gave my life meaning and purpose’

‘My biggest regret is missing so much of my children’s lives’

‘I managed to break the parent-child abuse cycle’

ABOUT THE HOST

Something that’s never been attached to Paul is the label ‘normal’ – for which he is immensely proud.  He definitely subscribes to being one of those mentioned – in the Steve Jobs quote:

“Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes... the ones who see things differently -- they're not fond of rules... You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can't do is ignore them because they change things... they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do.”

One thing that’s never been attached to Paul is the label ‘normal’ – something he is totally aware of.  He definitely subscribes to being one of those mentioned the iconic ‘Think Different’ Apple commercial narrated by Steve Jobs in 1977:

“Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes... the ones who see things differently -- they're not fond of rules.  You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can't do is ignore them because they change things... they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do!”

His World Game-Changers podcast embraces a mutually-respectful conversational style, with guests that are deemed ‘Unsung Heroes’ – selfless, dedicated people that contribute to the betterment of the world, in whatever way they can…


“Remember: The World’s Changing…

How Will YOU Respond?”
