February 20, 2026 #236 Josh Levey — One month. 7,000 Waves. $100,000 Raised. One Big Purpose.
In this episode I’m joined by Newcastle surfer Josh Levey, who set himself a challenge that sounds almost impossible… surf 7,000 waves in one month.
But this wasn’t about records or attention.

It was about purpose.

Josh took on the challenge to raise money and awareness for Soul Hub, a local homelessness charity supporting people doing it tough in his community. By the end of the month he’d raised over $100,000 and inspired thousands of people along the way.

We talk about his upbringing and relationship with the ocean, the moment he realised he wanted to use surfing for something bigger than himself, and how a simple idea turned into a movement.

Josh also opens up about the reality behind the highlight reel. The exhaustion, injuries, mental battles, early mornings, cold water, and the discipline it took to keep showing up every single day. What stood out most was how purpose can carry you further than motivation ever will.

We finish by chatting about what the experience taught him about gratitude, perspective and community, and where he wants to take this impact next.

This is a conversation about using what you love to help others, pushing your limits for a meaningful reason, and how one person’s commitment can ripple through an entire community.

In this episode we cover:
• Why Josh decided to surf 7,000 waves in 30 days
• The link between purpose and mental resilience
• The toughest physical and mental moments of the challenge
• What he learned about homelessness through Soul Hub
• The power of community support and accountability
• What comes next after achieving something this big

If you’ve ever wondered how small daily actions can turn into real impact, you’ll love this one.

February 12, 2026 #235 Nigel Beach — Simple Home Changes That Help You Feel Calm Again.
In this episode I’m joined by Nigel Beach and we explore how much our environment shapes our mental state.

We often try to think our way into feeling better, but our nervous system responds first to what we sense. Light, temperature, hydration, and contact with nature all send signals to the body about whether we are safe or under threat. When we change those inputs, our state naturally follows.

This conversation is full of simple, practical ideas you can apply straight away at home. Nothing extreme, just small adjustments that help your body spend more time calm, clear and present.

We talk about hydration and how H2O affects energy and mood, why modern lighting can keep the brain alert at the wrong times, and how sauna and cold exposure build resilience rather than stress. We also dive into grounding and why reconnecting to natural signals helps regulate the nervous system.

The big message from this episode is that regulation is not only a mindset practice. It is something we can design into our daily life.

In this episode we cover:
• What nervous system regulation actually feels like day to day
• How your home can either support recovery or keep you wired
• The impact of hydration on focus, mood and energy
• Lighting habits that improve sleep and recovery
• Sauna and cold exposure as resilience training for the body
• Grounding and reconnecting to nature
• Small environmental changes that create lasting calm

If you enjoy this episode, share it with someone who would benefit and let us know your biggest takeaway 💛

February 10, 2026 1% Pod — The Restaurants Our Community Can’t Stop Talking About
In this episode, I share something a little different and a lot of fun.

Our 1% Good Club community recently came together to share their favourite restaurants, cafes, and local spots to try, and it turned into a reminder of why community matters so much.

It is a gentle reminder that being a good human is not always about doing more. Sometimes it is about sharing a great meal, trying somewhere new, and feeling connected to the people around you.

As always, this episode is inspired by messages from our community and built around the idea that small moments, done consistently, can make a big difference.

February 05, 2026#234 Dr. Steven Lu — From ICU to Prevention: What a Heart Surgeon Wishes Everyone Knew About Their Health
In this episode, I sit down with Dr Steven Lu, a former cardiac surgeon turned preventative health pioneer and the founder of Everlab.

Steven shares his journey through medicine, from operating in high-pressure ICU and surgical environments to asking a deeper question: why are we waiting until people are critically unwell before intervening? After years of treating heart disease at its most advanced stages, he realised the system was built around reacting to illness rather than preventing it.

We unpack the philosophy behind Everlab and why prevention, early detection, and personalised health data are the future of healthcare. Steven explains how understanding your biomarkers, lifestyle, and risk factors can help you take ownership of your health long before symptoms appear.

This conversation also dives into simple, practical health habits anyone can start today, from movement and nutrition to sleep, stress, and consistency over perfection. It is a powerful reminder that small daily choices can dramatically change long-term outcomes.

If you have ever felt confused, overwhelmed, or reactive about your health, this episode will help you reframe the way you think about wellbeing and empower you to take action earlier rather than later.

In this episode we cover:
Steven’s journey from cardiac surgery to preventative medicine
Why the healthcare system is reactive by design
The moment that inspired him to start Everlab
The importance of early testing and personalised health data
Simple daily habits that reduce long-term disease risk
Why prevention is not about perfection, but consistency
How to think long-term about your health and energy

This episode is about taking responsibility for your health, one decision at a time, before crisis forces the conversation.

January 29, 2026#233 Thomas Fancutt — 10 Months Doping Ban, “The Mistake That Nearly Ended My Professional Tennis Career”
In this powerful and deeply honest conversation, I sit down with Australian professional tennis player Thomas Fancutt for his very first interview since serving a 10 month anti doping ban that turned his world upside down.

Thomas opens up about the moment everything changed. A simple IV drip that he believed was allowed became a career altering mistake, leading to a ban that shocked him, his team, and the tennis world.

We talk about what it was really like to have his career paused overnight, the emotional toll of being labelled, judged, and misunderstood, and the mental battle of staying motivated when the sport you love is suddenly taken away.

Thomas shares the behind the scenes reality of the ban, the shame and frustration he carried, and how he worked through anger, fear, and uncertainty about his future.
Most importantly, we dive into the comeback. How this experience reshaped his mindset, strengthened his resilience, and gave him a new perspective on purpose, pressure, and identity beyond sport.

This episode is about mistakes, accountability, and what it really takes to rebuild when your life takes an unexpected turn.

If you have ever faced a setback that felt unfair, overwhelming, or completely out of your control, this conversation will hit home.

In this episode, we cover:
Thomas’s tennis journey and rise in the professional ranks
The IV drip incident and how a misunderstanding led to a 10 month ban
The emotional impact of having his career put on hold
Dealing with public judgement and internal doubt
How he stayed mentally strong during the toughest period of his life
What this experience taught him about identity, resilience, and perspective
His mindset heading into his comeback and what drives him now

This is a raw, real, and inspiring conversation about turning one of the hardest moments of your life into fuel for your next chapter.

He shares what it was really like living as a monk, the daily routines, the mental challenges, and the powerful lessons he brought back into everyday life around presence, discipline and perspective.
