This week I sat down with Sarah Rosenberg, and this conversation genuinely stopped me in my tracks.
Sarah is a victim-survivor advocate and Executive Director of With You We Can, and her work sits at the intersection of lived experience and real legal and policy change. But before any of that, there is her story.
At 23, Sarah reported a violent assault by someone she had been dating. What followed wasn't just a legal process — it was a complete loss of control over her own story. Without her knowledge or consent, the defence accessed thousands of pages of her private medical and counselling records, including deeply personal notes from when she was a teenager. Doctors she hadn't seen in years were contacted. Sensitive details about her health and her life were read aloud in court. She describes it as a total free-for-all.
What is striking, and not widely understood, is that at no point was she automatically given a lawyer to represent her own interests throughout that process. For a long time, Sarah thought this was just her experience. It wasn't.
Now her work is dedicated to making sure others understand their rights, and pushing for the systemic protections that should have been there from the start. She speaks about all of it without polish — thoughtfully, honestly, and grounded in what it actually feels like to go through something like this.
This is a conversation about trust, agency, and what happens when the systems we assume will protect us simply don't. It is one of the most important episodes I have released, and I think it will stay with you.
In this episode we cover:
Sarah's experience reporting a violent assault at 23The defence accessing thousands of pages of her private medical and counselling records without her consentWhat it felt like to have her most personal history read aloud in courtWhy victim-survivors are not automatically provided legal representationHow she came to realise her experience was far from uniqueHer work as Executive Director of With You We CanThe legal and policy changes she is fighting forWhat real agency and justice should look like for victim-survivorsWhat she wants people to know about their rightsIf this episode brought something up for you:

This week I sat down with Blake Bourne, and I am still wrapping my head around what this guy is capable of.
Blake just ran 1,200km solo and completely unassisted from Geelong to Sydney. No support crew, no team behind him, just his own two feet, his own mind, and whatever the road threw at him. He slept on park benches, pushed through rain for half the journey, and did it all to raise money for mental health charity Speak and Share. This comes off the back of last year's effort, where Blake became the youngest person ever to run across the Simpson Desert.
But the why behind all of this is the most important part of this conversation. Blake opens up about his own mental health struggles, including a suicide attempt, and how that experience shaped his mission to get people talking and taking action on their own mental health. This is a heavy episode, but it is also one of the most inspiring conversations I have had on the show.
In 2023, Blake started The Uncomfortable Challenge with one goal — to create real change in mental health. Since then the movement has raised over $60,000 for mental health initiatives across Australia, and it's running again all of July. Everyday people take on their own personal challenge to step outside their comfort zone, all in the name of mental health and raising funds for Speak and Share. He was recognised for this work as Citizen of the Year.
This one is raw, honest and will leave you wanting to go and do something uncomfortable yourself.
In this episode we cover:

This week I sat down with Luke Bateman, and this was one of those chats that covered so much ground I genuinely didn't want it to end.
Luke played 71 NRL games for the Canberra Raiders before injury and his own mental health forced him to step away from the game. What most people don't know is that behind the footy career, Luke was fighting a serious gambling addiction that ended up costing him around $500,000 over four years, alongside struggles with alcohol and drugs. He's been incredibly open about how that addiction took hold, what it cost him, and what it actually took to get out the other side.
We also got into something Luke is really passionate about right now. Ahead of State of Origin Games 2 and 3, Luke is using his platform to call out the link between alcohol, masculinity and violence, with research showing a 40% rise in domestic violence incidents on State of Origin nights. We talk about why he believes alcohol and gambling advertising in sport needs the same scrutiny we've seen applied to tobacco, and why this conversation matters so much to him.
And then there's the part of Luke's story that surprised everyone. From hiding fantasy novels in the toilet as a tough country kid playing first grade footy, to becoming one of the biggest names on BookTok and signing a two-book fantasy series deal with Atria Books. It's a brilliant reminder that it's never too late to embrace who you really are.
This one covers addiction, advocacy, masculinity and reinvention. Luke is honest, switched on, and using his voice for something that really matters.
In this episode we cover:
Luke's journey through the NRL with the Canberra RaidersThe gambling addiction that cost him around $500,000 over four yearsHis struggles with alcohol and drug use during his playing careerWhat recovery actually looked like for himThe culture in elite sport around gambling and drinkingThe link between alcohol, masculinity and domestic violenceThe 40% rise in family violence incidents during State of OriginCalls to tighten alcohol advertising regulation, similar to gambling and tobaccoHiding his love of fantasy novels as a kid on a cattle propertyBecoming a BookTok sensation and signing his Atria Books dealWhy storytelling and reading matter for boys and menThe numbers behind this conversation:
Alcohol is involved in up to 47% of all police-reported family violence incidents47% of women sexually assaulted by a man in the past decade said alcohol or another substance contributed to the most recent incidentResearch shows a 40% increase in violence towards women and children in NSW on State of Origin game nightsState of Origin Game 3 — Wed 8th July

This week I sat down with Macario De Souza, known to most as Kid Mac, and this one really got me.
Macario grew up in Maroubra, one of Australia's most iconic and tight-knit surf communities, and from a young age he was finding his way through a world that wasn't always easy. He opens up about the challenges he faced towards the end of his school life and how surfing and storytelling became his way through.
Most people know Macario from Bra Boys, the landmark Australian surf documentary that put Maroubra on the map and introduced him to working alongside Russell Crowe. That film changed the trajectory of his life and sparked a career built on telling stories that matter.
We also get into Fighting Fear, his deeply personal documentary that saw him confront his own mental health challenges head on. It's a film that took real courage to make, and Macario speaks about that journey with total honesty.
But the heart of this conversation is his new film, In Pieces Together. The film tells the story of Blake Johnston's world record surf — and the story running alongside it about Blake's dad, his battle with mental health, and his death by suicide. It is one of the most important surf films ever made, and talking with Macario about why he felt compelled to tell this story was something I won't forget in a hurry.
This one is for anyone who has ever lost someone, loved someone who is struggling, or believes that storytelling has the power to change lives.

This week I sat down with Dane Henry, and honestly this one had me fired up from the start.
Dane is 19 years old and has already done something that only Tom Curren, Gabriel Medina, and Jordy Smith have ever done before him — win both the ISA Open World title and the ISA Under-18 World Junior title. He then went on to claim the WSL World Junior Championship in the Philippines in January, cementing himself as one of the most exciting surfers on the planet right now.
We also got to talk about his wildcard appearance at Bells Beach this year, where he went toe-to-toe with world number two Griffin Colapinto and came within a whisker of pulling off one of the all-time upsets in a heat that had everyone talking.
This conversation covers all of it — where the journey started, what it actually takes to win at the highest level, the mindset behind three world titles in under two years, and what is driving him as he sets his sights on the Championship Tour.
Dane is humble, grounded, and absolutely locked in. This one is for anyone who loves surfing, or who wants to understand what it looks like when a young person goes all in on their dream.
In this episode we cover:
How Dane got into surfing and where it all beganWinning the ISA Under-18 World Junior titleClaiming the ISA Open World Surfing Games gold medalBecoming WSL World Junior Champion in the PhilippinesJoining Tom Curren, Gabriel Medina and Jordy Smith in the history booksHis wildcard at Bells Beach and that heat against Griffin ColapintoThe mindset and preparation behind three world titles in under two yearsWhat is next and his goals on the Challenger Series and beyondFollow Dane

She's been riding waves professionally for two decades, shaping young minds in the classroom, and somehow making it all look effortless. But in this episode, my sister Sophia Chapman pulls back the curtain on the reality behind that life.
Sophia has been sponsored by Roxy for 20 years, one of the most enduring partnerships in Australian women's surfing, and she's built a second life as a primary school teacher pouring into the next generation every single day. But this conversation goes somewhere different.
We go deep, and I mean really deep, on Sophia's mental health journey, the battles she's fought privately, and the experiences she's never spoken about publicly before. This is a raw, honest, and at times heavy conversation between two siblings who love each other and wanted to finally tell the truth.
In This Episode We Cover
Sophia's 20-year journey with Roxy and what that sponsorship has really meantBalancing a pro surf career with a full-time teaching careerThe mental health struggles Sophia has faced behind the scenesHer personal experiences with crisis and recoveryWhat has helped, what hasn't, and where she's at todayThe pressure of appearing fine when you're notWhat she wants other people going through hard times to knowA Note From Us
We mention throughout this episode that if the topics feel too heavy, please pause and come back when you're ready. We also reference Lifeline (13 11 14) during the episode itself. Please save that number. You never know when you or someone you love might need it.

This week I sat down with George Burgess, a rugby league legend who won an NRL Premiership with the South Sydney Rabbitohs and represented England on the international stage. George is a good mate who I just kept running into everywhere, so we finally sat down for a proper chat, and I'm so glad we did. This one goes well beyond the footy.
George opens up about losing his dad to Motor Neurone Disease at fifteen, and how that shaped the path that followed. It was Russell Crowe, part-owner of the Rabbitohs, who brought the Burgess family out to play for Souths, and George shares what that opportunity meant for him and his brothers, Sam, Tom and Luke, who he went on to play alongside in the NRL.
We also get into a side of George a lot of people don't know. He has always loved acting, and since hanging up the boots he has carved out a serious career on screen, with roles in Land of Bad, Spartacus: House of Ashur, and the upcoming Lionsgate feature Beast in Me.
This is a chat about grief, reinvention, brotherhood and backing yourself to start again. George is the real deal and I loved this one.
In this episode we cover:

This week I sat down with Blair Rubock, a really special human who has built something incredible with his Instagram page @ThroughStrangersEyes. By sitting down with strangers and having honest conversations about their struggles, Blair has reached millions of people and reminded all of us that everyone is carrying something.
We got into all of it. How Through Strangers' Eyes started, what those conversations have taught him, and why he had to stop his national tour to look after his own mental health.
Blair also opens up about his fear of dying, and what it has been like watching his dad struggle with dementia right after he retired. It's a heavy chapter, but Blair speaks about it with so much love and honesty.
We also chat about his newest project, Through My Eyes, where he travelled to a remote village in the Mentawai Islands to live with the tribesmen and learn about their way of life. The documentary drops on May 31st and it sounds incredible.
This is one of those conversations that will sit with you for a while.

This week I sat down with two of my good mates, Tom and Kell Reese, aka The Reese Bros. They are two of the biggest content creators in Australia and two of the funniest blokes going around, and it was really nice to go deep with them on this one.
We go right back to the start. Growing up in Evans Head, struggling at school but finding their feet on a chess board, and what it actually felt like for Tom to make and lose a million dollars in crypto before he turned twenty.
They get honest about the early days of social media too. The cringe of posting when no one was watching, the judgement that came with putting themselves out there, and what it really takes to back yourself when not everyone is on your side.
And underneath all of it, the thing that has held them together the whole way through. Brotherhood.
This one will leave you smiling, thinking, and probably ringing your brother.

For this special Mother's Day episode, I'm joined by the woman who started it all — my mum, Alyson Chapman. This is one of the most meaningful conversations I've ever had on the show, and one I'll treasure forever.
We sit down and chat about her upbringing, the story of how she met my dad, what it was like becoming a mum for the first time, and the beautiful chaos of raising four kids. Mum shares what it was like travelling the world with me throughout my surfing career, the highs and the hard moments, and how proud she is of all of her kids and the people we've become.
We also talk about one of her newest and most special chapters — becoming a grandma — and what that's added to her life.
Whether you're a mum, have a mum, or are about to become one, this episode is a beautiful reminder of the love, sacrifice and quiet strength that mothers pour into their families every single day.
In this episode we cover:

Two-time WSL World Champion Filipe Toledo joins me for one of the most powerful and personal conversations I've had on the show. Filipe opens up about the mental health battle behind his decision to step away from the tour in 2024, the weight of winning back-to-back world titles, his deep faith in God, family, the Olympics, and so much more.
Filipe shares the story of his darkest period back in 2020 — the moment he sought professional help and started therapy — and how that decision laid the foundation for the comeback that saw him win two world titles in 2022 and 2023. This is Filipe like you've never heard him before: raw, honest, and reflective on what it really takes to ask for help, walk away when you're at the top, and find your way back.
In this episode we cover:
Growing up in Ubatuba and the move to San ClementeHis darkest moments in 2020 and the decision to seek professional help The pressure of chasing (and winning) world titlesWhy he stepped away from the CT in 2024The role of faith in God through his highest and lowest momentsFamily, fatherhood, and staying groundedFinding joy in surfing againLessons from his father and lifelong coach, RicardoWhat legacy means to him nowA must-listen for anyone who's ever felt the weight of expectation, struggled in silence, or wondered what's on the other side of asking for help.
If this episode resonated with you, please share it with a friend who you think it will help. You never know whose day — or life — it might change.
If you or someone you know is struggling, please reach out to a mental health professional or a trusted person in your life. You're not alone.

Frankie Johnston is a 17-year-old high school student who is already making a powerful impact across Australia. As the founder of the Manners Matter Initiative, Frankie is leading a movement encouraging young people to bring kindness, respect, and better behaviour back into everyday life, both online and offline.
What started as a simple idea has quickly grown into a nationally recognised initiative, with Frankie sharing her message on Sky News, The Daily Telegraph, and The Today Show. But this episode is about more than just media attention. It’s about why this matters.
We dive into the moment that inspired Frankie to take action, what she’s seeing firsthand in schools and among young people, and why she believes small shifts in behaviour can create a huge ripple effect on mental health and community.
We also have an honest conversation around social media, including whether there should be stronger boundaries or bans for young people, and how platforms are shaping the way we communicate and treat each other.
We talk about my role coming on as an ambassador for Manners Matter, what the initiative stands for, and how each of us can play a part in creating a more respectful and connected world.
In this episode we cover:
Frankie’s story and the moment she decided to start the Manners Matter InitiativeWhat she’s seeing in schools and why kindness and respect are more important than everHow small actions and better manners can create a ripple effect in communitiesThe impact of social media on young people and the case for stronger boundariesThe conversations around banning social media for younger generationsWhat Manners Matter is doing right now and the vision for the futureHow I got involved as an ambassador and why I believe in the missionSimple ways you can get involved and be part of the movementConnect with Frankie:

Brianna Throssell is one of Australia's greatest ever swimmers. A three-time Olympian, two-time Olympic gold medallist, and Western Australia's most decorated Olympic swimmer, Brianna spent 12 years at the elite level representing the green and gold across three Olympic Games, six World Championships, and two Commonwealth Games.
But this episode is about so much more than medals.
We dive into what it actually takes to build an Olympic career over more than a decade, the culture behind why Australian swimming produces world-beaters year after year, and what it feels like to finally stand on top of the podium after years of being the ultimate team player. Brianna was famously described as the "unsung hero" of the Australian swim team, and in this conversation you will understand exactly why that label both fits and undersells her.
We also talk about what happens when the pool is no longer your whole identity. After retiring in March 2025, Brianna has joined Deloitte's Mergers and Acquisitions team through their athlete program, and she opens up about what that transition has really looked like, the lessons elite sport gives you that no business degree can, and how she is channelling a lifetime of discipline and teamwork into a brand new chapter.
In this episode we cover:
Brianna's journey from Subiaco to three Olympic Games and two gold medalsWhat it was like to go from relay workhorse to Olympic champion in Tokyo and ParisWhy Australian swimmers are consistently among the best in the worldWhat it means to be a team player at the highest level and why that is its own kind of excellenceThe emotional reality of retiring from a sport that has been your whole lifeHow the Deloitte athlete program works and what drew Brianna to itThe skills elite athletes bring to the corporate world that money can't buyWhat she knows now about resilience, identity, and starting overConnect with Brianna:

Most people see an osteopath when their back gives out or their neck won't turn. They get treated, they leave, and they come back when it happens again.
Dr Ash Hamilton does things differently.
As an osteopath and mind-body speaker, Ash has built his practice around something most in his field overlook: that the body keeps score, and if you only treat the physical, you are only telling half the story. His patients are often the ones who have been everywhere else first. The ones who have tried everything and are still in pain. The ones who need someone who will actually look at the whole picture.
In this episode, Ash takes us through his journey to finding a genuine love for his craft, why he became just as focused on the mind as the body, and what he has learned from working with people that the system could not figure out. This is a conversation that will change the way you think about pain, healing, and what it actually means to feel well.
In this episode we cover:
Ash's journey into osteopathy and how he found his passion for the mind-body connectionWhy so many people with chronic pain end up at his door after exhausting every other optionHow the mind and body communicate and why you cannot treat one without the otherWhat chronic pain is really telling us and why it is so often misunderstoodThe mindset shifts that help his patients finally break through after years of strugglePractical tools for understanding your own body and nervous system betterWhat Ash wishes more people knew about pain, healing, and long-term wellbeingConnect with Dr Ash Hamilton:
