Leon McKenzie

After 18 years in professional football & 4 years in professional boxing at elite levels, I found myself in a dark place, a place I luckily managed to pull myself out of and have now made it my mission to help others do the same by sharing my life experiences.

Through my professional speaking events, talk show hosting, merchandise, and social media influence my goal is to create a greater understanding of mental health and be a positive change in the world.

THIS IS MY STORY

 
 

Two Elite Sporting Careers

After two elite sporting careers, in pro football and boxing, life circumstances changing and depression grabbing hold of me, many years ago I tried to end my life, I didn’t fight it.

Reminding myself of this message saves me from being down for too long. I’ve always tried to be positive as much as I can and give back my experiences to others and create a greater understanding of mental health.

To speak to others and share all is a very powerful purpose to have.

 
 

A Proud Father of 5

Being a Daddy is my biggest success. My children are the one thing that are my strength and on the days I can’t see clearly when I see them I come alive again.

They mean everything to me they are the voices that I hear when its time… “get up daddy we love you”. That’s all I need to continue to try and keep pushing to be the best I can be.

Being a daddy is true love and I truly love mine.
