Testimonials
Toby Jenkins, Olympian and Executive Coach
“I thought I knew a fair bit about nutrition after years of being an athlete, but it’s been super helpful having your guidance…”
Connell Croser
“Working with Richard over the past 8 weeks has been nothing short of life-changing.
When I first came to him, I was struggling with low energy, constant lethargy, and relentless brain fog that made it hard to think clearly or function at my best.
Richard didn’t just treat the symptoms he helped me get to the root cause of what was going on. Through his personalized approach, which included tailored nutritional and lifestyle recommendations, I’ve seen incredible progress in such a short time.
My energy levels have skyrocketed from a 2 or 3 to an 8 out of 10, and my brain fog, something I thought I’d just have to live with, has gone from an overwhelming 8 out of 10 to a manageable 2. On top of that, my sleep and digestion have improved drastically, and I’ve even lost 8 kg as an added bonus!
I absolutely love what Richard is doing. His holistic, foundational approach has not only transformed my health but also given me the confidence and energy to tackle an even bigger goal. Together, we’re now working towards preparing me for a once-in-a-lifetime adventure: traveling to Nepal and climbing Mount Everest in October.
Richard’s guidance has empowered me to believe in what my body is capable of, and I’m truly excited for what lies ahead. I can’t thank him enough for the impact he’s had on my life, and I would happily recommend him to anyone who is looking to improve their health and well-being.”
