Boxing Day Episode: Soldier to CEO: Richy Thrower’s Mission to Empower Veterans and Unlock Potential

  • Summary

  • In this episode, we delve into the remarkable story of Richy Thrower, the Founder of Peak Potential World and CEO of Motion Focus Media. Richy shares his journey from joining the British Armed Forces at the young age of 16 to becoming an entrepreneur dedicated to empowering others. He reflects on his time serving in combat zones like Afghanistan, where he cultivated resilience and leadership skills that would later define his life and work.


    After leaving the military in 2014, Richy faced a difficult transition into civilian life. Despite reaching out to well-known military charities, he found himself on endless waiting lists with no support, a reality he still grapples with today. Homeless and without guidance, Richy relied on his determination to teach himself the skills needed to thrive in the civilian world.
