When Richie Bullbrook was a kid, a cartoon sparked a passion that’s taken him around the world. Now 22, he’s one of Canada’s top-ranked park and vert skateboarders, an Olympic hopeful, and a National Champion for the Canadian Men’s Health Foundation.

In this conversation, Richie opens up about the promise he made to his dad before he passed, the mental health challenges he’s faced, and the self-care habits that keep him grounded through injuries, setbacks, and pressure at the highest level.

You’ll hear how Richie turned personal loss into fuel for his goals, why mentorship matters for men’s health, and the lessons he’s learned about resilience—on and off the skateboard. It’s a powerful reminder that mental health isn’t about going it alone, but leaning into the people and purpose that keep you moving forward.
