Richard Frost founded Twenty2Beyond after more than 30 years of study, reflection, and practical research into how more of us can live lives that we really value and enjoy more.
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 as an Educator has given him extensive experience in being able to help people safely learn, reflect, grow, and develop with belief, clarity, and confidence.
Richard’s academic background includes post-graduate studies in Politics and Philosophy, Citizenship Education, and International Development, alongside many years of practice and research into emotional intelligence, mindfulness, human agency, and self-actualisation.
After his political studies and qualifying as a teacher in London, Richard traveled across India before spending nearly 20 years living in China. It was Richard's 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, his travels, personal experiences, and his long-term research to develop the framework and philosophy behind Twenty2Beyond.[see the Approach and Framework page]
It is this work that Richard is driven to develop and grow, so more people can live lives they really value and are at peace with, through greater awareness, acceptance, wisdom, and kindness.
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 wonderful degree of responsibility 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
