Richard Shanahan has played an immense role in helping and continuing to unlock my immense potential. I first met Richard as a result of him working with my teammate, good friend, Bellator and PFL, MMA professional Myles Price. At the time I was extremely dedicated in terms of my physical training but had not done any real form of mental training. Meeting and working with Richard has taken not just my sport but my work and life to a whole new level. He got the person I needed to believe in me to wholeheartedly do so. Myself.
Since meeting Richard as a 0-1 pro MMA fighter I went on to win my next fight working with him and have gone on since to be signed by one of Europe’s biggest MMA promotions BAMMA and have fought on the second largest MMA promotion in the world, Bellator. However, it was whilst at my lowest and battling severe injury in terms of brain fog and vertigo for over a year and a half that Richard truly helped me. It’s easy to be of support to someone when they are achieving and at the top of their game, but Richard was there whilst I was at rock bottom. And that is testament to him as both a professional in his field and also as someone I now call a true friend. You see, as I mentioned at the start, whilst our first consultation was aimed at pursuing sporting excellence, the injury was a blessing in disguise and through working with Richard I have since gone on to have the courage to open my dream fitness and MMA facility and I am truly pursuing my passion and what I love. It is truly amazing what you can achieve when you believe in yourself. I always had the key to the door, but Richard helped me to unlock it. Whether you are looking to pursue sporting excellence, business excellence, or simply wish to have more confidence in yourself and have the tools to do so then Richard Shanahan is your man. As Henry Ford once stated, whether you think you can or you think you can’t. You’re right.
