Description

In our latest episode, we're joined by Rick Cooper - an ex firefighter, former professional rugby player, and GB athlete turned coach. 

Armed with a wealth of personal experiences, Rick shares his thoughts on resilience, personal identity, and the pursuit of purpose. 

We unravel his journey from being a young rugby player seeking validation to a mature individual who realized that his identity is not defined by external achievements. 

This episode also unpacks the power of recognition and taking small, manageable steps towards success. Rick opens up about his time on the rugby field and how the pursuit of validation shaped his drive and mindset. 

His story is a testament to the impact of self-discovery and self-improvement, shedding light on how we can navigate life's challenges. 

Together, we explore how our environment influences us and how purpose and self-awareness play key roles in our journey to growth and transformation.
