Wallace “Wallo267” Peeples—a man who spent twenty years in and out of the prison system before restarting his life and catapulting himself to unforeseen levels of social impact, cultural influence, and success—presents a powerful memoir “that everyone can glean wisdom from” (Deion “Coach Prime” Sanders).
Named after his well-respected father who disappeared when he was two, Wallo grew up in North Philadelphia with his mom, brothers, and grandmother, feeling pressure to achieve the success and reputation his father had on the streets. He spent time in and out of juvenile detention centers, and school psychologists and counselors labeled him “criminal-minded.” His luck on the streets involving petty crimes would soon run out. After his involvement in an armed robbery, Wallo was arrested and received a prison sentence of nineteen to fifty-two years. Upon serving twenty years of his sentence, Wallo was released and returned home to Philadelphia.
This memoir traces the journey from Wallo’s youth and incarceration to his incredible success. In his time spent in prison, Wallo reckoned with the choices that put him there, accepted responsibility for his own actions, and vowed to arm himself with only good intentions upon his release.
Wallo’s reflection and newfound philosophy—which he now shares with you—informed the new trajectory of his life. Upon his release, Wallo moved back to Philly and committed himself to entrepreneurialism. His viral motivational content gained him over sixty-thousand Instagram followers on his first day of freedom. This would prove to only be the start of his continuously growing career utilizing his social influence as a motivational speaker, entrepreneur, and cultural changemaker.
“Full of energy, hard learned lessons, and no BS advice, Armed with Good Intentions is a must for anyone who wants to take a chance to bring their best to the world” (Erika Ayers Badan, CEO of Food52).
