He opens up about his battles with depression and shares how his experiences have shaped a life dedicated to making a positive difference. We also dive into his latest book, The Spirit of the Warriors, and explore how he uses storytelling to inspire others and foster a love of literacy. Needless to say, we will ensure James shares with us who is on his invitation list to his dream cricket net session.
