    80% of people hate the sound of their own voice, but what if your voice was actually made to heal you?

  • #77: Daniel Raphael: I’ve Spent My Whole Life Trying To Be Normal
    Daniel Raphael has been called a real-life wizard. But what makes this episode special is the raw journey of someone who was born feeling everything, then spent years trying to feel nothing just to fit in. From reading minds and seeing people’s deepest insecurities as a child, to battling dissociation, depression, and suicidal thoughts after years of shutting himself down… Daniel opens up about the pain of being misunderstood, the journey back to self, and the power of energetic healing. We talk about the “system” that keeps people stuck in loops of shame and smallness. We go deep into identity, energy, ownership, victimhood, and how healing your internal world changes everything outside of you. This is a conversation about remembering who you were before the world told you who to be. Daniel’s lived it and he’s here to help others do the same.

  • #76: Cru Mahoney: What People Misunderstand About Discipline
    Cru Mahoney is a rare breed. And this is the second time I have interviewed him. He’s never touched alcohol, caffeine, or drugs. He has ran every day for over 2500 days. But this episode goes deep. Much more than just a ‘Stay HARD’ discipline ridden podcast that has two young men telling you how to live your life. We discussed some profound topics that made me ponder deeply. We talk about the internal war most people avoid, the difference between emotional and physical survival, and why self-respect is built in the quiet moments of daily effort. We also dive into identity, loneliness, food freedom, and how so many people are chasing success while quietly hating themselves. Key Discussion Points: Cru’s philosophy behind running every day The truth about being your own hero Why most people never find peace Food, orthorexia, and emotional restraint The illusion of success vs true fulfillment What people misunderstand about self-discipline How to find clarity by stripping back the noise Follow Cru: https://www.instagram.com/crumahoney/ Follow Chris: https://www.instagram.com/morechrisgriffin/ Timestamps: 06:40–13:20 Why Cru runs every day 13:20–20:00 Keeping promises to yourself 20:00–26:40 Life gets harder, that’s okay 26:40–33:20 Emotional vs physical survival 33:20–40:00 Finding clarity through discomfort 40:00–46:40 Work, excuses, and true purpose 46:40–53:20 Self-worth and extreme ownership 53:20–1:00 Freedom through simple discipline 1:00–1:06 Struggles with identity and relatability 1:06–1:13 Nutrition, routine, and food mindset 1:13–1:20 Orthorexia and eating awareness 1:20–1:26 Environment, addiction, and temptation 1:26–1:33 Alignment vs restriction in lifestyle 1:33–1:40 Final thoughts on living free

  • #75: Jamie Obrien: How Burning The Rule Book Will Change Your Life
    Jamie O’Brien is one of the most iconic surfers of all time, but it’s not because he followed the path everyone expected. Signed at 13, Pipeline Masters champ by 21, and already staring down a life of competition, Jamie realised it wasn’t what he wanted. He literally burnt the ASP rulebook, pioneered a new era of free surfing, and built a global brand doing it his way. In this episode we go deep on fear, risk, happiness, and how chasing mastery can sometimes steal your joy. It’s an incredible look inside the mind of someone who has shaped surf culture for a generation. This convo was truly powerful. Key Discussion Points Burning the ASP rulebook and walking away from comp surfing How fear and calm coexist inside a big barrel Why chasing the perfect wave still drives him at 41 Building an empire outside of the traditional surf world How growing up with little money fuels his work ethic The balance of staying youthful and chasing big dreams Follow Jamie: https://www.instagram.com/whoisjob/ Follow Chris: https://www.instagram.com/morechrisgriffin/ Timestamps: 00:00 - 01:30 Intro 01:30 - 06:00 The thrill and fear of the barrel 06:00 - 10:30 Signed at 13 and growing up fast 10:30 - 15:00 Walking away from competition surfing 15:00 - 19:30 Burning the rulebook 19:30 - 24:00 Fear rituals and risk mindset 24:00 - 28:30 Staying young, driven and building an empire 28:30 - 33:00 Teaching others and the surf school 33:00 - 37:30 Pipeline ego and surf culture 37:30 - 42:00 Why progress can kill the joy 42:00 - 46:30 Starting new hobbies and learning 46:30 - 51:00 The power of travel 51:00 - 55:30 Work ethic and building from nothing 55:30 - 01:00:00 The hunger for more 01:00:00 - 01:04:09 Why he keeps chasing waves
