Changing The Game with Campbell Johnstone

In the world of rugby, where strength, determination, and camaraderie reign supreme, one remarkable individual, Campbell Johnstone, has emerged as a beacon of hope and inspiration for both the sport and the LGBTQ+ community. His story is a testament to resilience, authenticity, and the power of breaking barriers.

Campbell Johnstone's name resonates within New Zealand rugby circles as an All Black and a Canterbury Crusaders rugby star in the early 2000s. His prowess on the field was undeniable, and he left an indelible mark on the sport. But it was in early 2023 that Campbell's name transcended the boundaries of the rugby pitch and became a symbol of courage and progress worldwide. Why? Because Campbell Johnstone made history by becoming the first-ever openly gay All Black.

Campbell's journey is not just about rugby; it's a story of self-discovery, authenticity, and unwavering determination. In an environment where stereotypes and traditional norms often cast a shadow, Campbell's decision to step out as his authentic self was nothing short of revolutionary. He defied conventions and chose to live his truth.

In doing so, Campbell Johnstone became a source of inspiration not only for fellow athletes but for countless individuals facing the daunting challenge of embracing their own identities. He has shown the world that one's sexual orientation should never limit their dreams or ambitions, and that authenticity is a force to be reckoned with.

Campbell's story is a testament to the transformative power of authenticity. It's a reminder that embracing who you are, regardless of societal expectations, can lead to greatness. His journey encourages us to break free from the constraints that may hold us back, to be bold, and to pursue our dreams with unwavering determination.

As an openly gay All Black, Campbell Johnstone has redefined the landscape of rugby, dismantling barriers, and opening doors for future generations. His legacy extends beyond the try lines and scrums; it's a legacy of acceptance, inclusivity, and hope.

In a world that sometimes lacks understanding and compassion, Campbell's story is a shining beacon that reminds us to stand tall, live authentically, and strive for excellence without fear of judgment. He is a role model, a hero, and a symbol of progress, reminding us all that we can be true to ourselves and make history in the process.

Campbell Johnstone's journey is a story of triumph, resilience, and above all, being unapologetically true to oneself. His journey is one of hope for the future, a future where acceptance and authenticity are celebrated.

Professional Footballer Aaron Evans gets behind our Global Efforts

‘As a professional athlete, I recognize and embrace the fact that I am also a regular person with genuine emotions and occasional struggles. It is important to acknowledge that feeling down or experiencing off days is a normal part of life. However, what truly matters is the affirming mindset and self-talk that one maintains, as it empowers them to overcome any challenge with the support of the right individuals and a positive mentality’. - @aaronevans

We’re kicking season 18 of the ImperfectlyPerfect Podcast next week with none other than the incredible Aaron Evans! He’s not just a professional athlete; he’s a force of nature on the field and a true inspiration off it. Get ready to dive deep into Aaron’s world, hear his inspiring journey, and be inspired by his wisdom.

Wisdom that comes from a journey well travelled, the ups, the downs, the sacrifices and struggles that come with a profession like his that not many people get to hear or see.

We see the highlights and accolades throughout media of professional athletes, but we often don’t get to see or hear what it truly takes, see or hear the person behind the profession, or see and hear about the internal roller coaster of emotions it brings with it to so many young men that are often told to ‘man up’ if they are struggling..

Make sure to have subscribed to the show to be the first to know when Aaron’s episode goes to air.

Life is what you make of it and I am proof of it.

‘I’m J.R. Martinez, and my life is different than most. Would you believe me if I told you a burn survivor Army veteran could win Dancing with the Stars, become a New York Times best-selling author, star in the television series All My Children and become a keynote speaker at events all over the world.

JR Martinez is a force to be reckoned with. A Truly beautiful soul, husband and father.

‘Being Imperfectly Perfect is looking at yourself with kindness and recognising that the mistakes you made in the past, you did the best you could with what you had. We just are constantly living with regret of what we wish we should have done or feel or judged ourselves or should have done. And so it’s looking back with kinder eyes to say, you did the best with what you had, but now it’s ok. You are awesome and you can create something amazing and the fact that you’re imperfect is the greatest gift of all’. - Evan Carmichael

International Rugby Union Player Psalm Wooching shares his story on the ImperfectlyPerfect Podcast

‘Imperfectly Perfect means accepting who you are as a person. They always say, you know, the cliche thing, it’s ok not to be ok. That phrase, and I think you have to put yourself and others in a category of nobody is perfect. No matter how or even your biggest person you look up to, the guy who makes the most money in the world. Nobody’s perfect. They are all dealing with something and you have to just embrace that. If you are down and low or happy and high, you just got to embrace that. Everyday is a new day, everyday is a day to take advantage and whether it’s that low day or a high day just know you can get through it and you don’t have to be perfect’. @psalmwooching

Joshua Broome shares his truth on the Imperfectly Perfect Podcast

‘I am a father of 3 beautiful boys, I have a wife who loves me so much and we’ve been married for 5 years last week and I have a story that lets people know ‘hey, if you believe that having all this sex is going to make you happy, it didn’t make me happy. Fame, No it didn’t work. Money, I made over a million dollars at the time in the industry, didn’t work. I actually achieved everything that I believe would make me happier and at the end of it, I was left broken and depressed and I realised that, man if this won’t bring me happiness and piece what will and I get to point someone to that one thing that does provide peace’ @iamjoshuabroome

Upcoming Episode for the @imperfectlyperfect_podcast coming soon

He Was One of the Top Five Male Porn Stars in the World. Now He’s a Pastor.

Joshua Broome wanted to die. After achieving fame firstly in acting then the porn industry, he spirraled down into a pit of confusion, was at the end of himself — and believed he had no viable path forward. Seeing beyond the fog of the present felt impossible. After years of buried emotions, the former adult film star could no longer compress his angst and fear. “I'm thinking, ‘I want to die.

I don't have the guts to kill myself, but like how would I do it ... I just don't want to live anymore. There's no future, there's no one who's going to marry me, there's no employer who’s going to hire me ... I'm absolutely useless.’”

But rather than give up, Broome mustered the courage to leave the industry and rebuild his life and is now a husband, father and pastor, boldly defying the lies he told himself in the midst of his despair.

Glenn Marsden is the founder of the International campaign ‘Imperfectly Perfect’ He is the humble success that brought the @imperfectlyperfectcampaign together which has gone on to gain International recognition within 12 months and has seen over 250 of the worlds most influential public figures get on board his mission.

Losing a friend to suicide and going through adversity himself, his incredible journey of taking a mission to impact the world saw a sheer determination like no other. The @imperfectlyperfectcampaign didn’t come from an organisation with a team behind the scenes, a publicist to get all the publicity, or a team to approach and ask so many of the amazing advocates and faces of the campaign if they would get on board.

This came from a passion, one man, our founder who worked tirelessly reaching out to people to get on board, picking up the phone, learning how to write press releases and ask for help on things he didn’t know, he approached networks with the help of a couple of the advocates on the campaign, then publications that would listen to get the efforts out.

He worked around the clock simultaneously with a young family and a full time job. He worked whilst nobody was watching putting in the blood, sweat and tears and he worked because he cares. He surrounded himself with like minded people who have gone on to help support and build an amazing international team around him these days. ( I am so honoured to be a part of this important legacy alongside Glenn, Eden, Kim, Rob, Jackie, Jeremy, Rob, Rachael, Ryan and Mike )

He turned his own adversity into something pretty special to help countless others around the world and brought so many people together solely who care for making a much needed change with the narrative around mental health. So we ask you guys, get behind Glenn, get behind our global efforts.

One that is fuelled by love for wanting to make a change in this world. Share our message, and help us reach more people who continue to suffer in silence.
