Meet Kimball Walker Jr: Boxer, Model, & Actor

We had the good fortune of connecting with Kimball Walker Jr and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Kimball, what do you want your legacy to be?
I want my legacy to make believe they can do anything in life. That it’s possible to make something from nothing and have a impact on people lives around you. I want people to remember how positive I was no matter the situation was because the universe always figure things out. There’s no reason to stress in life, through the good and bad life will always be ok. I want people to remember about me that I always viewed life in a different perspective and it took me a long way. I made myself comfortable in the uncomfortable situations which helped me to grow into the person I am now. I want my legacy to change how people look at their life because life is beautiful in all aspects and you can create your reality. That you are more powerful than you think you are. I want people to remember that if I can do it, you can too.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
I’m a Boxer, Model, & Actor. I’ll sum it up, I’m a Superstar. I believe what I do doesn’t set me apart from others but my mindset does. My mindset motivates people that I never thought it would motivate in many ways. Not only motivate but how to view life. I came from bad anxiety and depression. Also I came from suicidal thoughts that would cross my mind every once in a while going through everything I was going through at a young age. Therapy didn’t work and talking to others didn’t work. I had to dig deep down and figure what was the problem and I figured it out day by day. I came a long way and I’m very proud of where I am with my mental health today.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
I love going to ponce city market. It’s a real vibe with food and activities. Especially on the roof when they have a mini carnival and restaurants. Also Sixflags is fun but the heat is something serious. They also have a water park which is also fun for family that’s perfect for a hot day. Downtown and Buckhead have a great selection of restaurants to eat at with high quality food. Some of the best food I ever had. There is also the zoo and the aquarium.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I had a lot of help on my journey. Everyone in my life played a significant role to who I am today. At the end of the day, you are in control of who you are and how you turn out to be. I thank myself for pushing through the hard time. I thank myself for keeping faith when I was down on my last. I thank myself for loving myself.
