The story not the glory

In this powerful episode, I sit down with Dr. Glenn Toby—a man whose life reads like a novel of transformation, resilience, and purpose. From homelessness and trauma as a child, to finding his gift, and then walking boardrooms as a renowned music industry executive and wealth manager for elite athletes, Dr. Toby’s journey is a testament to the idea that your story is your strength.

He’s not in it for the spotlight. His legacy is built not on accolades, but on impact. As the founder of The Book Bank Foundation, he has dedicated his life to empowering underserved communities through literacy, education, and opportunity.

Dr. Toby believes that every person has a unique gift—and the real power lies not in holding onto it, but in giving it away. In this conversation, he shares how discovering his own gifts led him to a life of service, influence, and deep personal fulfilment. You must hear his amazing and spontaneous rap.

In this episode, we explore:

• Dr. Toby’s early life experiences with homelessness and adversity
• How he broke into the music industry and later transitioned into wealth management
• The inspiration behind founding The Book Bank Foundation
• The importance of finding your gift—and why it’s meant to be shared
• Why purpose must come before prestige—and how to stay grounded in your “why”
• His thoughts on legacy, leadership, and lifting others as you rise
