Reflecting on his own upbringing, James highlights the resilience and strength of his mother, Gloria James. At the age of sixteen, Gloria became LeBron’s mother and faced numerous difficulties, including the loss of their home when he was just three years old. They experienced a series of relocations over three years, living in uncertainty and survival mode. Despite the challenging circumstances, LeBron emphasizes the unwavering love and support he received from his mother, who played the roles of both mother and father in his life.

At the age of nine, Gloria made a difficult decision to give LeBron stability and placed him in the care of “Big Frankie” Walker, his ρee-wee football coach’s family. This sacrifice was driven by her desire to provide him with the security and support she had experienced growing up in a large family. LeBron acknowledges his mother’s selflessness and the priority she placed on his well-being throughout their journey.
