Jesse Faen is a father, surfer and former editor of Waves magazine in Australia and Surfing magazine in the United Sates. After his stint in these roles, Jesse moved into the position of Surfer’s Representative on the ASP world tour (now known as the World Surf League) for one year, before transitioning into the role of Media Director for the ASP, which allowed him to be part of what is described as the dream tour; travelling the world surfing the best waves in the most exotic of locations. Since then, Jesse has continued to work with the WSL, appearing as a commentator via online broadcasts and writing feature articles for the company. Jesse is also responsible for launching the clothing and apparel brand Insight in the United States, amongst his other work with the likes of major brands such as Quicksilver. In this week's episode, Jesse is with me live from his home in Los Angeles, California to share his journey, experiences, challenges and hopes for the future.
