Descripción

What happens when you stop trying to be who others expect you to be? In this episode of On Your Bike, Mr Motivator is joined by entrepreneur, musician, chef, and Dragon's Den success story Levi Roots for a powerful conversation about identity, self-belief, and staying true to yourself. Levi reflects on his journey from Jamaica to Britain, growing up in a Windrush family, and the decision to leave behind the name he was born with in order to embrace his heritage and sense of self. Together, Levi and Derrick explore the experiences that shaped him, from spending time in prison and finding an unexpected mentor, to building the Reggae Reggae brand despite being told it was "too black" and "too Jamaican" to succeed. Along the way, they discuss health, wellbeing, longevity, and the importance of exercising both the body and the mind. This is an honest and inspiring conversation about identity, purpose, second chances, and the courage to back yourself.
