ABOUT KENRICK

I'm the guy behind 'Yarns with Rick' – just a regular bloke (most of the time) who's been through the wringer and came out the other side.
I've walked the same rocky path many men trudge on: feeling stuck, wrestling with stress, and figuring out what happiness really means.

I realized men need real-life tools to manage the chaos of life and to THRIVE.

During a rough patch in my life, my mental health and marriage was going down the drain, I was miserable. I learned that owning my happiness was key. I dived into mindfulness, nature, exercise and learned to love myself!

Here's the thing – mindfulness isn't a cookie-cutter solution. It's about finding what clicks for you. Maybe it's a walk in the bush, maybe it's going for a run, or maybe it's just breathing a bit deeper on your lunch break. These little moments? They add up, shifting how we see and tackle the world.

So, I invite you lads to join me in this journey. It's not about escaping life; it's about living it fully – with a bit more awareness, a lot more compassion, and a heap of joy.
