meet the rmr superhero team
meet roan - ceo of real meal revolution
At the start of 2024, Roan found himself at a crossroads. After a two-decade career in digital advertising—culminating in his role as Regional Managing Director of a global media and technology giant—he had achieved what many would call success. But something was missing.
That changed in June when he met Jonno and joined Real Meal Revolution. Over the following months, Roan realized what had been lacking all along—true impact. No longer just shaping marketing strategies, he was helping people change their lives through the power of real food.
His own journey with Real Meal Revolution has been transformative. In November, he took the Perfect Keto course, lost 10 kilograms, and experienced a cascade of benefits—reduced inflammation, better sleep, and mental clarity. But the biggest shift? Energy. As a father of two young, endlessly energetic boys, Roan had always worried about keeping up. Now, for the first time, he’s confident he’ll be the present, active dad they deserve.
For Roan, Real Meal Revolution isn’t just a business—it’s a movement. A platform that has empowered tens of thousands of people to break free from diet myths, take control of their health, and rediscover what it means to feel great. And under his leadership, that impact is only set to grow.
