About

My name is Richard Frost and I've founded Twenty2Beyond because I believe in the importance of us all taking more control over our lives and directing them forwards more, in ways we value. I also believe in us all needing to be better humans, for ourselves, for our intimate communities, and for the wider world.

To that end, my mission is to help normalise access to an education that enables you to develop a steadier way of being, be kinder to yourself and others, and grow your life in ways you care about, both in terms of who you are and what you do.

My work helps with the right kind of focus, both ongoing and at the right times in your life, whether in your 20s, 40s, 60s, or anywhere else in between.

‣ 20 years experience teaching and training. His skills as an educator and facilitator were really honed through training teachers for nearly 10 years

‣ an MA, PGCEd, MSc, and 10 years of independent research - all guided towards creating this project

‣ a very highly developed active awareness (mindfulness) practice

‣ a very high degree of self-actualisation, the work and the journey of which he continues to truly value

It is my belief that life is long and that what truly matters is how we manage the process of life, which means learning to manage ourselves as much as anything else.

It is up to us to become more able to navigate a path through the ups and downs of life, and to find meaning along the way. That means learning to find meaning – even enjoyment – in the tough times, as well as loving the good ones. And at the core of that is the work we do on ourselves, to better deal with both.

Most importantly, it's about realising that meaning isn't just given to us. We get to define it for ourselves. It comes from within, and it evolves within us too, depending on our awareness, autonomy, and sense of control: our agency.

The more we grow in these areas, the more we're able to shape a life that feels genuinely ours, one we care about and one we enjoy.

This is a first attempt video introduction to what I and Twenty2Beyond are all about. I originally had no intention of publishing it – hence the comfy clothes and at home feel – I had just been playing around with video for the first time. I liked the message though, it is the right one, so I decided to share it.
