Building Wines, Ventures and Schools Around the World
A near fatal accident. Twelve schools. Eighteen harvests. A life that didn't go to plan.
A life that didn’t go to plan.
Before the accident, Richie was already building. Businesses, adventures, a life without limits.
Then a near fatal crash, and a first in world knee transplant from a teenage donor. Eight operations. Seven failed. After the seventh, they suggested amputation. He refused. What followed was a four year recovery, a complete rebuild, and the founding of Hark Angels, a charity now twelve schools deep into a mission to build one hundred.
Not one life. Several.
Wines in the Hunter Valley. Schools in Myanmar and Cambodia. Stages around the world. Three pursuits, one conviction: the things worth building are the things that change people’s lives.
Keynotes on resilience, purpose and what you build after the ground shifts. Delivered to rooms that went completely silent.
