Can Sir Ranulph Fiennes and Ella Henderson take you into a better 2024?

Many of us are waving goodbye to a difficult 2023. All industries and most businesses felt the pinch of 2023 in one way or another.

A new year can be a daunting and anxious time. However, a new year is also a chance to take stock and reset for the year ahead. A time when we can think about our goals and ambitions both personally and professionally and figure out how we might achieve them. The weather and general feeling of January are not always conducive to that. We often need some inspiration to take us there and a former homeless man from Manchester is setting out to do just that.

The now proud father of 3 and multiple business owner, James Burke has joined forces with some big names such as singer Ella Henderson, explorer Sir Ranulph Fiennes, comedian Paul Smith and former UFC champion Tom Blackledge to put on an all-day event like no other designed to give us all tips and mechanisms to live a happy, healthy and prosperous 2024.

The man behind the event is James Burke from Salford who was born into poverty, thrown out of 4 schools as a teenager, became homeless at 16 for three years and lost four loved ones to suicide including two sisters. He candidly states that his life wasn’t worth living and he was at rock bottom sleeping in outhouses and sheds. The 34-year-old is now a successful businessman, speaker and award-winning author. The Master Your Life event is his brainchild because he is intent on giving back after overcoming incredible adversity in his own life.

One of eight siblings James was sleeping in outhouses, occasionally sofa surfing and secretly sleeping at his local boxing gym. He was taken under the wing of one of the coaches who discovered he had natural talent. James was then put on a coaching programme. At 18 James became a professional ‘middleweight’ boxer and believed he had the world at his feet. Then he was diagnosed with Osteoporosis and his boxing dream was over almost as soon as it started.

The then 18-year-old James sunk into a deep depression compounded by his role model at the boxing club also dying by suicide. He put on 5 stone in 6 months and felt suicidal himself. It was during this time and at his lowest that a friend kept inundating him with motivational videos. In one the speaker said ‘The average CEO reads 50 books a year’. Something resonated with James and he decided to start reading and didn’t stop. He got through around 350 books in 5 years.

During that time and with everything he had gleaned from the books he applied for a job as an estate agent at Your Move. Within 18 months he was branch manager and a further 18 months on he won a national award for taking the branch figures up substantially and was made a Director of one of the largest estate agency groups in the country YOPA earning 6 figures. This was 5 years on from being homeless and with no qualifications.

James now helps others to achieve their goals and says he wants to give something back. He wants to share exactly how he beat homelessness and with no qualifications achieved what he has. On Saturday, January 27th James is hosting the Master Your Life event from 10:00 until 19:00 at The Birmingham Symphony Hall to tackle wellbeing and personal development. He will speak alongside Sir Ranulph Fiennes and fellow former boxer and mental health champion Tom Blackledge. There is also music from Ella Henderson who herself has been vocal about her personal and mental health struggles. A Q + A with comedian Paul Smith and a talk from best-selling author Michael Heppel, all in the beautiful space of the Birmingham Symphony Hall.

“If I can do this with no qualifications, no home and at rock bottom I know others can too. I want to share my journey because I didn’t have a leg up. I did it in the hardest possible way. If you had a tough 2023, don’t settle for more of the same in 2024. Whatever you want, make January 27th the day you ignite massive new changes in your life and make them stick. Come and be part of the Master Your Life event.”
