Welcome back to another episode of The Pocket with Chris Griffin!
This episode is truly special. Today, I'm chatting with the amazing Eugene Koning, a good friend, absolute legend and a breathwork facilitator at Saint Haven (one of my favourite places on earth).
Eugene’s journey is one of the most inspiring I've ever heard. He moved from New Zealand to Holland to chase his rugby dreams but ended up getting caught in a whirlwind of partying and drugs.
Eugene was such a people pleaser, always doing things just to fit in, living a lie. One night, everything changed for Eugene. He found himself at a breaking point, which led him to embark on a profound journey of self-discovery and healing through breathwork.
Eugene's story is a testament to the power of resilience and transformation. Now, he dedicates his life to helping high achievers unlock their full potential through the incredible practice of breathwork.
In this episode, we dive deep into:
Eugene’s early days and his move to Holland for rugbyThe highs and lows of his party lifestyleThe pivotal moment that sparked his journey into breathworkHis incredible transformation and healing processHow he now helps others as a breathwork facilitator at Saint HavenThis conversation is packed with raw honesty and deep insights. Eugene's energy is infectious, and I have to say, this is one of my favorite episodes ever. I didn’t want it to end!
Don’t miss out on this powerful and inspiring story. Tune in now and let Eugene’s journey inspire you to start your own path of self-discovery and healing.

Welcome back to another episode of The Pocket with Chris Griffin!
This week, we're diving deep into an incredible story with our special guest, Tom Noske.
First of all, Tom is an absolute legend and I am so inspired by his story. Tom is the opposite of me being super introverted, however he has pushed himself time and time again, and now he's out there posting content and helping others build their own online businesses.
In this episode, we talk about Tom's journey through life as well as building and launching his successful program, Time To Build. Tom's recent launch was a massive hit, raking in $500k AUD in just one month! And he's only looking to grow from here, with each launch building on the last.
But it’s not all sunshine and rainbows. Tom opens up about his ongoing struggles with anxiety. Despite all his success, he still battles extreme anxiety and the overwhelming feeling of impending doom that can be triggered by the smallest negative thought. It's raw, it's real, and it's something many of us can relate to.
This conversation was one of the most authentic and heartfelt chats we've had on the podcast. We went deep, sharing Tom's story over a span of more than two hours. Trust me, you won't want to miss a second of it.
Tune in to hear how Tom has navigated his personal challenges while achieving incredible success. It's a story of resilience, vulnerability, and the constant journey of self-improvement.

Welcome to Episode 14 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin!
Today's guest, Louis Phillips, takes us through the highs and lows of his evolving career. Once a pioneering fitness creator in Australia, Louis faced a pivotal moment when a public fallout with his best friend and business partner turned his world around, sparking intense online drama.
In this episode, Louis opens up about navigating the backlash at the time, a challenge that tested his resilience. Despite these hardships, Louis reinvented his content focus towards running, which catalysed his popularity, skyrocketing him to over 200,000 followers in a few months!
Louis also shares his unique experience on the reality TV show "Big Brother," which aired during his rapid rise in popularity—a twist that unexpectedly led to him losing 50,000 followers. We delve into the complexities of managing public perception and the unpredictable nature of reality TV fame.
Beyond his social media and TV experiences, Louis discusses the challenges of launching and running his new tech venture, the running app INTVL. He also reflects on the insane impact having a girlfriend during all of these times has on him.

Welcome to Episode 10 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin!
This week, we were thrilled to have Matthew Banks, the visionary founder of my favourite and also Australia's largest men's jewellery brand, Merchants of the Sun.
In this conversation, Matty takes us behind the scenes of Merchants of the Sun, sharing the brand's inception story, the challenges faced, and the pivotal moments that defined its path.
One of the most captivating stories Matty shared was about a bold decision made at the peak of the brand's success. Despite Merchants of the Sun doing an astounding $150,000 a month, Matty chose to close the store during the busiest times of the year. This wasn't a step back but a strategic pause to refocus and reimagine the brand's vision, setting a precedent in the industry about the importance of alignment with core values over immediate gains.
We also touched on the hard times, the doubts, and the resilience it takes to build a brand that stands out for its commitment to quality and sustainability. Matty's journey with Merchants of the Sun is not just a business success story; it's a testament to following one's passion and the courage to redefine success on one's own terms.
As a personal fan of their jewellery, I can't express enough how much I love Merchants of the Sun's creations. I wear their pieces every day, and their commitment to craftsmanship and sustainability is something I deeply respect and recommend to everyone.
