From Corporate Success to Inner Mastery with Amaury Renard
In this powerful and deeply human episode of Power Movers, host Roy Castleman, founder of All the Power Ltd, sits down with Amaury Renard – a former luxury watch executive turned skydiving coach, freediving instructor, and transformational guide. This episode dives deep into Amaury’s extraordinary transition from corporate burnout to a life of freedom, presence, and purpose.
Amaury opens up about the challenges he faced growing up, the trauma that shaped him, and how he built a successful but ultimately unfulfilling career. Through freediving, skydiving, and meditation, he reconnected with his authentic self and now helps high-performing professionals do the same.
