As a former elite athlete whose Olympic dream took a radical turn through injury at the peak of his sporting career, Chip Richards has spent most of his life devoted to exploring human potential and supporting the path of purpose with individuals, teams, and projects globally. As a coach and mentor working closely with the dreams of athletes, artists, founders, and leaders of many walks, Chip has gained a deep appreciation for the steps and phases required to bring bold visions and callings to life. As a passionate gardener, beekeeper, surfer and freediver, he has also developed deep reverence for the patterns and cycles of nature, and what they have to teach us.
While Chip's work currently brings him into the heart of some of the world's largest and most pioneering projects and organisations, increasingly he finds himself venturing with these leaders and teams into immersive experiences in the natural world—as a doorway to true clarity, connection, and breakthrough. Chip and his family live in the hinterland of Byron Bay, Australia, on a small, lush acreage surrounded by fruit trees, vegetable gardens, flowering herbs, and the hum of bees—all of which were planted and welcomed there as seeds of a dream.
