Richard Hughes-Jones did it. After 10 years as a management consultant, he took the plunge to start his own practice - fueled in part by his love for backcountry skiing. Then on a routine check up, his doctor states “That's not supposed to be there.” Stage 3 Colorectal cancer. It's the news we all dread - what happens next? Do you take the Anti-Fragile approach of “that which does not kill me only makes me stronger” or the Buddhist approach of "relinquishing control." How do you deal with experts (i.e. doctors) and is information your ally in the battle? And do you ever get “closure?” Richard is a kind, open, and warm spirit. We talk mortality, second-guessing your prior lifestyle, decision-making, his 26 line item sneaker collection, and making it back to the mountains he loves.
