About Twenty2Beyond

Take kinder and wiser control of yourself and your life in ways you value and enjoy more. 
At Twenty2Beyond, we believe we can all take kinder and wiser control over our lives, our thoughts, our decisions, who we are, how we see life, the direction we're going in, and our relationships, and that life is just better when we do. 
Our Mission is to help normalise access to a form of Inner Education that empowers us all to live more kindly and wisely and to live lives we value and are at peace with.

About the Founder

His background, experiences, and philosophy

Richard Frost founded Twenty2Beyond after more than 30 years of study, reflection, and practical research into how more people can live lives that they really value living, and be people they're at peace being.


Alongside this long-standing investigation and commitment, Richard has over 20 years experience as a teacher and trainer, including nearly a decade training teachers. His background and extensive experience as an Educator has given Richard the ability to help people learn, reflect, grow, and develop with clarity, belief, and confidence.


Richard’s academic background includes post-graduate studies in Politics and Philosophy, Citizenship Education, and International Development, alongside many years of research and practice into emotional intelligence, mindfulness, human agency, and self-actualisation.


After his political studies and qualifying as a teacher in London, Richard decided to travel across India and spend nearly 20 years living in China. It was his intention to better understand the world being shaped in his life time and how we humans can best thrive within it.


Over time, Richard brought together his academic studies, his work in education, and his long-term research to develop the framework and philosophy behind Twenty2Beyond.

It is this work that Richard is driven to grow and develop, so more people can live lives they really value, and be people they're more at peace being.

A Note from Richard

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

One of the most important realisations we can have is that meaning in our lives, who we are, and our direction aren’t simply laid down for us, but we can get heavily involved in shaping and re-shaping them over time.

At the core of this is seeing the value of the inner work we can do on ourselves, which requires a different way of looking at life and a different way of living. This is what the work here at Twenty2Beyond is all about.

Here, we offer an Inner Education that focuses on your awareness; your ability to accept circumstances as a stable starting point; your values; your sense of agency and your choices; and how well you learn to manage your thoughts and emotions over time, in ways that you value.

The more you focus on and grow in these areas, the more you are able to shape a life that feels genuinely yours and that you're in control of. You're better able to manage yourself and your life with greater kindness and wisdom, in ways you care about, inside and outside yourself.

It is about learning how to direct a path through both the ups and downs of life. Which is as much about emerging from the tough times, with your head held high and your heart intact, as it is about finding and enjoying the good times more.

Growing Your Life

At Twenty2Beyond, we focus on you learning about and practicing particular qualities and skills, that'll enable you to grow your life more, so you are able to be the person you want to be more.

The answers will always come from you, we just offer the framework and the learning. [see our Approach and Framework page]

It is about discovering what matters most to you and paying attention to these more. It involves building greater stability of thought and emotion, evolving your perspective, and finding more ways to bring meaning, direction, and moments of joy into your life. I believe this inner work really matters because so much else in life flows from it.

I believe that how you grow your life and who you are, and how you do so over time, is the most rewarding work there is. As everything else you see and everything else you do sits within this really, within you.

Importantly, growth in these areas can exist no matter what else is going on in life, whether closer to home or out in the wider world, which can create a great deal of hope in all circumstances and is exceptionally empowering.

Real ambition can then be seen in how well you grow your life and who you are, and how you do these over time. Not as a matter of standard or judgment, by you or others, but simply as a matter of evolution on your terms.

This brings with it a large degree of responsibility (no bad thing) but also of ongoing interest and excitement, in your own life, which has the potential to be eternally rewarding.

For now, take care of yourself but feel free to reach out. The learning here has been created to help and, from experience, does.

Best wishes,

Richard
