About Stanley Roubaix
My Story
I had meningitis as a baby and it left me not growing properly, well, at all really. As such I was a great target for school bullies, who persisted all the way through school until the day I left.
Thankfully that ended then but the effects lasted much longer.
After my mother died when I was an immature 20 years old I was left to fend for myself. It could have gone terribly bad but thankfully it didn’t. I ended up living with an older woman for a few years.
Doesn’t take a psychologist to work out what was going on there.
My desire to leave this small town grew and grew.
I passed my driving test at 23 and 15 minutes later I drove away to London with the hope of never coming back. This was my first true leap of faith.
I was homeless in London for some time, sleeping in the back of a shop and working for food. I eventually got real work and started to work on a life. I decided to test myself and took a flight to Cairo on my own. I had nothing booked and had to improvise at the other end. I did a couple of thousand miles traveling all over Egypt. Another big leap.
In 2004 I decided to sell up and move to Ireland.
I bought a small farm house and started learning construction and farming. While there I retrained in counseling. The 2008 recession trapped me there for another 6 years before I could move back to the UK in 2014.
I started going to comicons dressed as all sorts of crazy stuff.
I overcame my loathing of being photographed this way.
That led me to working in promotions at events.
I would interact with hundreds (sometimes thousands) of people in a single day. I worked on stage talking about products and services.
Big crowds and 121’s all over the UK.
From there it led me to acting and directing.
I’m on Netflix in a documentary called NFT:WTF and on Amazon on Devil’s Familiar. I also have a movie I wrote and directed on Amazon called Teddy and the Mountain.
At this stage I can work with crowds, talk to anyone and do just about anything 99% better than I could.
But even now I still have things to work on.
It will never end, we are all a work in progress.
I’m not excluded from that.
But I can help you progress like I did.
