"Our chief want in life is somebody who shall make us do what we can."
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Take a clean break.

We help you create a life you’ll bounce out of bed for, normalising and simplifying the choice to go alcohol-free by replacing booze with fitness, health and Joie de Vivre.

We launched Clean Break as a way to give back to others who, like us, hope to find more meaning and purpose in life, take a break from alcohol and create a happier, healthier, more connected way of living.

Through 1-2-1 and group coaching programs, combined with tailored running plans, we work with you to overcome limiting beliefs, remove destructive habits, behaviours and negative thought patterns, and to fulfil your untapped potential.

Running & going alcohol-free have been the two most transformational things in our lives in recent years. Combined with being coached ourselves, they have helped us overcome fears, self-doubt, and limiting beliefs, and have enabled us to make positive progress towards becoming the best versions of ourselves and the people we truly want to be.

From facing our own versions of rock bottom, running & taking a Clean Break from alcohol have helped us build confidence, self-belief, healthy values, physical & mental resilience, as well as discovering meaning & purpose in our lives.

We created Clean Break as a health and lifestyle practice that makes running & taking a break from booze simple, enjoyable, and exhilarating.

You don’t have to have a problem to wish for better outcomes. We’re here to help you build a compelling future.

“Living an AF life is proving to be the best decision I ever made, I’d tried 4 times to stop drinking before and fantasised about it countless others, but it wasn’t until I contacted you Rich that I finally managed to kick it.

You listened, understood, encouraged & gave me access to some amazing people & tools that have made this journey an absolute dream.

4.5 months in and I have never felt fitter, healthier or happier in my life.

Anyone thinking of taking a break should Take A Clean Break with this wonderful man.
