In this week’s Trims & Talk podcast episode, we are joined by the extraordinary David Campbell. More than just a businessman, David is a disruptor, mentor, and passionate advocate for the Black community. With deep roots in Burngreave, Sheffield, where he grew up, David reflects on how his upbringing shaped his life—from being raised in a God-fearing home to cultivating a love for literature spanning Shakespeare to James Baldwin.
David shares powerful stories from his life: the foundation of the New Testament Church of God , his father’s insistence on the importance of education, and his journey navigating life as a Black man in the UK. He opens up about breaking through barriers in spaces that often feel inaccessible and his unwavering commitment to equipping the younger generation with tools for success, particularly in business.
This episode delves deeper into his passion for mentoring, his love of football, and his philosophy on life—not about accumulating wealth but about creating opportunities for others. It’s a moving and thought-provoking conversation brimming with wisdom and inspiration.
