This week I am SO excited to welcome back for a second time: father, entrepreneur, Navy SEAL veteran, author of the incredible books, ‘Transformed’ and ‘Chameleon’, Founder of Keh-jo Brand apparel and The 8th film productions, film producer, writer, director of “The Unexpected”, Hollywood actor, and jack of all trades and master at ALL of them: Remi Adeleke
A true riches to rags - and rags to riches story, Remi calls his life the TRUE ‘Coming to America’ story. Born into African Royalty in a small country in Western Africa, his picture-perfect life took a devastating turn after circumstances surrounding the death of his beloved father forced his family to uproot to America - which began a new life filled with adversity and struggles.
After years of running the streets out in The Bronx, NY, Remi knew he needed a change and enlisted in the US Navy in 2002 and began his inspirational and transformational journey from Streets to SEALs where he worked in human intelligence. His debut book biography, “Transformed: A Navy SEALs Unlikely Journey from the Throne of Africa to the Streets of the Bronx to Defying All Odds” outlines the inspirational and personal story of Remi’s life and how he overcame insurmountable odds and rose to prominence in literally everything he set his mind to - including the military and breaking into Hollywood. His newest project - a fictional follow-up to ‘Transformed’ called “Chameleon” - is a fictional novel loosely based on his own experiences as a SEAL. In Remi’s own words, “It’s a fictional extension of my memoir, ‘Transformed’. All the things that I couldn’t talk about in ‘Transformed’, I fictionalized and created this fictional world with fictional characters and fictional events in order to be able to tell more of my story, but in a fictional way.”
