Whole Health Over Hype with Miles Richards

What if your strongest years are still ahead because you stopped training for the mirror and started training for your life? We sit down with trainer and entrepreneur Miles Richards of Rich Work to unpack how a brutal Achilles tear, constant overwork, and a faith-led reset transformed his approach from aesthetics to stewardship. Miles takes us through his commitment to the grind that led to injury and the moment he realized he wasn’t practicing what he preached. From there, we get the blueprint for sustainable fitness:treat rest like trainingbuild stress relief into your weekhonor the unsexy habits that make results possible For moms carrying a heavy mental load, Miles offers a refreshing start line: choose what you like first, then build momentum with 10‑minute wins, playful movement with your kids, and the “read and react” method to stay consistent when schedules shift. We tackle comparison head-on, especially around postpartum “bounce backs,” and reframe the narrative toward self-love and purpose. Miles shares simple strength markers plus realistic nutrition, recovery, and mindset cues you can actually follow. Faith threads it all together as he frames fitness as stewardship. Caring for the body that lets you protect, provide, and be present for the people you love. If you’re ready to stop chasing shortcuts and start building strength that lasts, this conversation gives you practical steps and a grounded mindset to keep working with compassion.Stay up to date on in-person events in Atlanta, GA:Thrive Empowered in-person eventsFree Resources:Meal Plan & Prep WorkbookFollow and chat with me on Instagram:@[email protected] you light and love always!
