  • #87 - Brenden Newton: The gift of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD).

    https://terriblehappytalks.com/
    Brendan Newton is a husband, father, ex-professional bodyboarder, mental health awareness advocate and recruitment manager for the Australian Indigenous Mentoring Experience (or AIME for short). In the bodyboarding scene, Brendan can best be described as a highly respected “underground” charger who is renown for committing to some of the world’s heaviest slabbing waves, and when I say “heaviest”, I’m talking about waves that are literally unsurf-able for even the best slab hunting stand-up surfer. Brendan’s intense approach to the ocean translates into all aspects of his life, a life that is dedicated to his family, inspiring others and to be of service to the disadvantaged. In this week's episode, Brendan is with me on location in the highlands of south east New South Wales,  Australia to share his journey, experiences, challenges and hopes for the future.

  • #83 - Lance Billingsley: One foot in order, one foot in chaos.

    Send us Fan Mail

    https://terriblehappytalks.com/
    Lance Billingsley is an educator at a unique, private International school located in a Bali Jungle, he is also an avid surfer and this year, he might have caught one of the waves of his life, on one of the swells of the year at the notorious Langundri Bay on the Island of Nias. Previously, he joined me on episode 11 (that’s over 70 episodes ago) in which he discussed his travels through South America, perspectives on education, getting a gun pulled on him in Argentina, growing up in Ventura California, surfing in Peru, Mexico, various parts of Indonesia and of course Bali, where he currently lives and works. I consider Lance a dear friend.  A mate if you will. He loves Australia, and Australian wildlife, as signified by the tattoo of a Koala on his chest. True story. Random, but true. Anyway, it’s safe to say that a lot has happened in both of our lives (not to mention the whole world) in the last 12 months and it just felt like a good time for a catch-up with a good mate. So today, Lance is with me to check in, live from his home in Canggu, Bali, to share his journey, experiences, challenges and hopes for the future.

  • #81 - Jake Mackenzie: Addiction, recovery and Drifter surf shop.

    Send us Fan Mail

    https://terriblehappytalks.com/
    Jake Mackenzie is a husband, father, surfer, waterman, entrepreneur, and when the Bombie at Uluwatu is breaking...he is often the guy paddling into the best waves of the day.  Like many of us, Jake wears numerous hats in his life, however, personally I see a clean living family man, and a passionate surfer, who possesses a keen sense of spirituality. Over the years, I have found myself magnetically drawn into his “anti-surf, surf shop” - Drifter at Bingin Uluwatu. Its a space that has an immediate warmth, coupled with inspiration found in the boutique range of surfboards, artwork and books it has in stock. Fresh from a surf trip to Sumba, in this week's episode, Jake is with from his home in Uluwatu, Bali to share his journey, experiences, challenges and hopes for the future.

  • #80 - Kyle Parsons: Environmental entrepreneur.

    Send us Fan Mail

    https://terriblehappytalks.com/
    Kyle Parsons is a surfer, snowboarder, entrepreneur, and founder of the environmentally conscious footwear company Indosole (Disclaimer: there is some seriously unapologetic product placement in this episode).  After years of working in the Snowboarding and Action Sports industries, Kyle found a niche in the environmental footwear space and conceptualised what is now a world-wide distribution of the Indosole brand. More importantly, Indosole is a brand that represents a subtle form of environmental activism, advocating for conscious consumerism, and conservation that sheds light on the  vast opportunities that exist in a secondary resource market. In this week's episode, Kyle is with me live from his home in San Francisco  to share his journey, experiences, challenges and hopes for the future.

    Mark Baxter is a Psychologist, musician,  and advocate for research into the potential use of psychedelics as an assisted therapy to treat chronic and ongoing mental illness.  His clinical expertise and interest areas include post-traumatic stress, trauma recovery, psychosis, addiction, and addressing experiences of existential dilemma, anguish or distress. Aside from his academic and professional qualifications, at his core, Mark is a seeker who possesses an innate calling to help others, be of service to his community and progress in all that he does. When he is not listening to thrash-metal or wishing he could ride a skateboard, Mark can be found honing his Muay Thai Kickboxing skills at his local gym. He is truely a unique human who radiates empathy and I thoroughly enjoyed our conversation. This episode starts a little slow, but be prepared for some serious knowledge bombs to be dropped by Mark in the latter half of our chat. So tune in as Mark shares his personal experiences, challenges and hopes for the future.
