Episode 39 - Richmond Stace - I Want To Break Free
My guest in this episode is Richmond Stace, a leader and pioneer on pain management, a fellow Podcaster and a soon to be published author.
Richmond is uniquely qualified in pain science, physiotherapy, rehabilitation, sport science, nursing and coaching and in his own words his goal is to "help people understand their pain and move on to shape a positive future”.
Getting to that point has been an interesting and fascinating journey involving time in nursing, four University degrees and youthful stints packing sausages and being a failed Private Detective.
11 years at University is a clear sign that Richmond is an inveterate learner and its one of the reasons why two years ago he started #upandrun where he runs an Ultra Marathon every month! That's one heck of a way to find out more about yourself, your body and pain.
His musical choices are all around the theme of "Freedom" and whilst he didn't pick the Queen track “I Want to Break Free” it felt like an appropriate title for someone who is passionate about people being themselves, finding their own way and living their own lives. He is someone who walks (and runs) the talk and is genuinely inspirational.
