I’m Richard. The Health Habit is the culmination of my personal transformative journey and what gives me purpose every single day.

At the age of 50, after decades of an achievement-orientated life with a gratification-based lifestyle – alcohol, indulgent food, sofa-focused entertainment and a whole host of other negative lifestyle habits, I made the decision to change.

Cholesterol issues, pre-hypertension, an aching body and the sudden realisation that I was hurtling towards the cliff edge all coincided with a minor procedure for a nagging hernia. And that was my lucky break.

For a moment, lying in my hospital bed, I had a life-changing moment of clarity. I reflected on how I was living — and drinking — and vowed to start again. I went into the operating theatre worn-out and wine-soaked, and I came out ready to embark on a journey that would transform my body, my mind, and my purpose.
