Born in a one-bedroom Brooklyn apartment while his father worked toward becoming a doctor,
Ron Leger grew up moving around, wrestling with a learning disability he didn't fully understand, and battling low self-esteem all while chasing something he couldn't quite name.
College took him further from his purpose, not closer to it. It wasn't until he met his wife a woman he calls a gift the Lord sent to save him that Ron's walk with God became real instead of routine. From getting baptized, to building a men's Bible study from the ground up, to opening a catering company that grew into a full food truck business, this episode traces the long, honest road from spiritual struggle to walking boldly in purpose.
A raw conversation about faith, marriage, fatherhood, and what it actually looks like to build a legacy from the ground up — one obedient step at a time.
