Layne Beachley AO is regarded as one of the most successful surfers in history.

She is the only professional surfer to win SIX consecutive world titles between 1998 and 2003. Layne went on to win a 7th world title in 2006 before retiring from the ASP World Tour in 2008. Now retired, Layne travels nationally and internationally as a motivational Keynote speaker for some of the world’s top commercial firms, sharing her stories about sustaining success, overcoming challenge and maintaining a winning mindset.

Layne is also the Founder and Director of her own foundation, Aim For The Stars, Chairperson of Surfing Australia, an Officer of the Order of Australia and has recently launched her online course: Awake Academy. Layne shares over 40 years of lived and learned personal experiences to empower you to awaken, evolve and transform. The platform brings together much of the work Beachley has been offering for years through face-to-face workshops and keynote presentations.

Layne and Mark discuss the meaning of success, Layne’s personal struggles, how to develop and maintain a champion mindset, how to overcome fear and a whole lot more in a cracking Straight Talk episode.
