Richard Guy is a coach, speaker and organisational leader whose biography in Stories of Strength describes more than two decades working with individuals and teams through change. His background spans farming, youth work, ministry leadership and business, alongside his roles as a husband, father and grandfather.
In Get Unstuck, Richard reflects on the different identities and responsibilities that can emerge over a lifetime. He also recounts a difficult period in a landscaping and grounds-maintenance business he ran with his wife. That experience gives the chapter a personal context for discussing a plan that no longer works.
Richard's approach recognizes the emotions involved in an unwanted transition. He discusses accepting that a change has occurred, reconnecting with priorities and choosing small actions that are safe enough to try. Process and learning receive attention alongside the desired outcome.
His contribution is for readers who feel caught between an old direction and an uncertain new one. Richard presents change as something to work through with reflection and support, while treating the person's experience as significant rather than reducing it to a lack of motivation.
