  • Fev

    Loved Listening to Fev pour his heart out about his life, how he gambled and lost hundreds of thousands of dollars then twice during deep parts of interview you get interrupted by gambling ads. Then as pod finished another gambling ad.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Cooper Chapman: From Pro Surfer to Saving Lives
Q: Can you summarize the core message of your work with the Good Human Factory for someone new to it?
Lead with foundational values—Taking Responsibility, Gratitude, Empathy, Mindfulness, and Kindness—and use them as daily habits to improve mental health, relationships, and resilience, rather than chasing external validation or outcomes.
Cooper Chapman: From Pro Surfer to Saving Lives
Q: What was the turning point that made you shift from chasing surfing glory to focusing on mental health and community impact?
The Tokyo Olympic training camp where Ben Crow challenged us to define personal philosophy; I developed five core values and realized I didn't have to let my career be my entire identity, which steered me toward Good Human Factory and the 1% Good Club.
Glenn Manton on Setbacks, Purpose & Starting Again
Q: What was the moment that forced you to reframe your life after the injury?
The medical prognosis that he would likely never use his arm again was the brutal turning point, leading him to cry, evaluate responsibility, and commit to relentless rehabilitation and redefining his identity beyond sport.
Leigh Ryswyk: The First AFL Player to Come Out As Gay Opens Up
Q: What was the hardest part of coming out for Leigh in the context of his family and his sport?
Leigh describes the emotional weight and fear of how family, teammates, and fans might react, but emphasizes the importance of being true to himself and the support he found in close friends and immediate family.
Shaped with Lydia Lassila
Q: What do you hope your children understand about taking risks?
I hope they learn to take calculated risks and cope with disappointment.
