From frozen yogurt lines to Airbnb’s unintended consequences, this conversation dives into the messy, illogical, and deeply human side of decision-making. We also had a whole lot of fun. Rory is one entertaining guy. Key Discussion Points Why logical decisions rarely lead to innovation Red Bull, frozen yogurt, and the psychology of “dumb” ideas Why entrepreneurs belong in casinos, not chess clubs How framing and emotion drive behavior more than facts Airbnb, matcha, and the paradox of things that shouldn’t work but do ANDDDD Much, much more Follow Chris: https://www.instagram.com/morechrisgriffin/ Apply to work with Chris to build your podcast: https://thepodcastjungle.com/apply Chapters: 0:00 Rory on Australia & first impressions 6:15 Ice cream vs frozen yogurt psychology 12:42 Restaurants, failure & Darwinian innovation 18:55 Why luck beats logic in business 25:30 The Red Bull paradox 31:48 Bubble tea, matcha & strange consumer habits 38:22 Why Australians undervalue themselves 45:10 Breakthroughs born by accident 52:04 The danger of pure logic 58:40 Emotion > facts in persuasion 1:05:15 Electric cars & tribal identity 1:12:02 Pensions, dating apps & real priorities 1:18:47 Social constraints we never question 1:25:33 Airbnb’s unintended consequences 1:32:20 Experience goods: only valuable once tried 1:39:05 Why Americans adopt faster 1:45:55 The myth of perfect information 1:52:40 Airports, bad purchases & brain mush 1:59:00 Final reflections with Rory Learn more about your ad choices.

Today’s guest is ex-CIA officer and founder of EveryDaySpy, Andrew Bustamante. We went deep on the truth about government, money, perception, persuasion, and what real success actually looks like. He revealed how spy training connects to everyday life, why the CIA isn’t what conspiracy theories claim, and how the systems around us are designed to keep us predictable. What stood out most is his blunt honesty: happiness is a slippery pursuit, financial success is the only objective success, and once you see how the world really works, you can never unsee it.

Today’s guest is Ash Dykes. When most people think of adventure, they picture travel, fun, maybe a little challenge. For Ash Dykes, it’s life or death. From pulling a 120kg trailer through the Gobi Desert with no backup, to hallucinating his way to survival on the brink of heatstroke, to being held at gunpoint and crossing crocodile-infested rivers. Ash has lived through it all. But this isn’t just about danger. It’s about why someone would willingly step into the unknown, where death is a real option, and what that teaches you about life, fear, and resilience. Ash shares how he went from a small coastal town in North Wales to setting world records in some of the most extreme places on Earth, and the mental discipline it takes to keep moving when everything in your body is screaming to stop. This conversation is raw, wild, and filled with lessons that go way beyond exploration. Key Discussion Points: Nearly dying of heatstroke in the Gobi Desert Training for world records with just a tire and sledgehammer The “third man syndrome” that saved his life Why fear is a package deal with growth Leading with kindness in life-or-death missions This one will make you rethink what’s really possible.

Real talk… Jim Fortin changed my life as a young 17 year old. It is very full circle being able to sit down at his house for over 2 hours and have him on the show. Most people are living life backwards. They’re chasing more money, more success, more things… all while stuck in the same identity that keeps pulling them back. In this episode, Jim Fortin breaks down why 99.8% of people are working from the wrong place - behavior over identity, and how to flip it so transformation actually sticks. We unpack subconscious programming, the stories we tell ourselves, habits that shape our entire reality, and how to finally step into the identity of the person you want to become. Key Discussion Points • Why most people “work backwards” in life • How your subconscious identity sabotages change • The hidden role of habits and stories • Breaking free from scarcity and limitation • The real path to lasting transformation Thank you all for the support.

At just 20 years old, she’s gone viral for saying things most people are too scared to even whisper. In this episode, she opens up about why she believes feminism was a CIA operation, why she’d gladly give up her right to vote for a more conservative country, and how her faith and marriage shape the way she sees the world. We dive into her transformation from a liberal high schooler and model to leaning into her feminine and becoming what people consider a “trad wife”, her battles with online hate, and why she refuses to tone down her message no matter how much backlash it brings.

For Michael's sake, drop your #stepcheck in the comments! Today’s guest is Michael Smoak and this conversation was one like no other he has ever been on. This year has been tough for Michael. Losing his father to sickness at the beginning of the year created a newfound drive to make the most out of life. While this conversation surfaced his story and loss of father, it was probably the most value packed episode I have done all year. In fact I would go to say that it was my favourite episode I’ve recorded this year. Michael opens up about recording final conversations with his father, learning to laugh through chaos, and why surrendering to truth and God reframed everything. We also get into the reps behind real communication, the trap of routine-as-cage, and how curiosity hardens into conviction. We break down confidence vs ego, the table and plates mindset, and why ownership beats victimhood when life is loud. This was a good one! Key Discussion Points: • Count it all joy. Perspective is the lever • Curiosity into conviction into competence • Confidence is evidence. Ego needs applause • Be the table.

Tom Baulch (aka PrimeTrain) was stuck in the loop, partying every weekend, waking up with regret, and telling himself it was fine because everyone else was doing the same. But deep down, he knew he wasn’t proud of who he was becoming. Seven months ago, he made a decision that changed everything. He gave up drinking, cleaned up his circle, and went all in on his potential. Since then, his business has hit six figures a month, his energy has shifted, and he’s finally living the life he used to just talk about. In this raw and honest episode, we unpack what it really takes to change, why so many men stay stuck in the same cycles, and the brutal self-talk that finally pushed him to break free. He’s not perfect. But he’s giving life a red hot crack. This convo was powerful.

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.

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.

Welcome to episode 69 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin! Our guest today is Salim Najjar. What looked like rock bottom losing his business, dislocating his shoulder, going broke, turned out to be the moment Salim found everything. In today’s episode, Salim opens up about the unseen forces running our lives: our nervous system, our heart rate variability (HRV), and the emotional scars we don’t even realise we’re carrying. He breaks down why most of us stay stuck, how to actually move trauma out of the body, and why real health has nothing to do with how fit you look  and everything to do with how free you feel inside. This is a deep, important conversation for anyone who’s chasing more but feels like they’re stuck at the same level.

In this episode, I’m joined by Wade Papenfus - a wild creator, deep thinker, and a man who said f**k plan B and backed himself into the unknown. Wade went from living in a caravan with nothing but a camera and a dream, to building one of the fastest-growing YouTube channels in Australia. We talk about what it means to truly bet on yourself when you’ve got no safety net, no fallback, and no backup plan. Wade opens up about chasing discomfort, his obsession with learning, and how he found freedom through sacrifice. This one’s a deep dive into risk, rebellion, and real self-belief. From walking away from law, to training like an animal, to living out of a van and uploading daily with zero traction… until it all clicked. If you’ve ever felt called to do something bold, but fear, doubt, or comfort held you back, then this episode might be the permission slip you didn’t know you needed.

In this episode, I’m joined by my good mate Ollie Moore, a hybrid athlete who’s on a mission to become the best in the world.  And when I say “all in,” I mean it… this guy is the walking, talking definition of it. Ollie opens up about what it truly means to back yourself 100%, the mindset shifts that come from sacrifice and self-discipline, and the unseen work that separates the good from the great.  We also talk about what belief really looks like, where it comes from, and how to protect your energy, your environment, and your dreams at all costs. There’s a raw honesty in this one. From building daily habits and letting go of distractions, to friendships, relationships, and training in complete silence and so much more.

Today we sit down with Benji Haldon, a hybrid athlete, entrepreneur, and co-founder of one of the largest coaching platforms in the world, MyCoach. Known online for his physical strength and straight-talking mindset content, Benji opens up in a way most people haven’t seen before. This conversation dives deep into the emotional toll of heartbreak, the pressure of chasing success, and what it really means to rebuild your life when it all falls apart. It’s about more than fitness. It’s about identity, grief, personal power, and learning to find yourself again, piece by piece. Key Discussion Points: "Grieving someone who's still alive" – Benji shares the pain of losing a relationship he thought would last forever, and how it feels to mourn a future that never happened. Rock bottom and reflection – Why hitting his lowest point emotionally became the unexpected turning point for massive internal growth. Moving to Australia alone – How leaving everything behind, including comfort and familiarity, forced Benji to step into a new version of himself. The illusion of success – He had the car, the house, the money—but still felt empty. What Benji discovered about happiness and why achieving goals can sometimes leave you feeling worse. Heartbreak and masculinity – A vulnerable look into what heartbreak really does to men, physically and emotionally, and why so few talk about it. Challenge addiction – Benji reflects on his extreme world record attempt and the darker side of constantly chasing pain to prove your worth.

In this episode, Chris sits down with Georgie Stevenson - an entrepreneur, former lawyer and podcaster. Best known for co-founding Naked Harvest Supplements and hosting the Rise & Conquer podcast.  Georgie opens up in a way she rarely has on other shows. This conversation goes deep. From spirituality to identity, ego, growth, and trauma, Chris and Georgie break open the surface and talk about the raw stuff that shapes who we really are. It’s a refreshing, honest, and vulnerable chat that left both of them reflecting long after the mics were off. Key Discussion Points: Manifestation with substance: Georgie redefines manifestation as a grounded, lifestyle-based practice - not just “wishful thinking.” Rewriting identity: Her journey from strict religious upbringing and partying teen to driven businesswoman and mother. Victim mindset vs. personal power: Why many people stay stuck - and how to flip that script. Authenticity and confidence: The cost of living for others’ opinions, and how being your true self builds real confidence. Relationships and growth: What 13+ years with her partner Tim have taught her about evolving with someone - not away from them.

Welcome to episode 62 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin! Today I sit down with Simon Hill - nutritionist, podcast host, author of The Proof is in the Plants, and one of the leading voices in evidence-based health and wellness. Simon is known for breaking down complex nutrition science into simple, actionable advice. But in this conversation, we went way deeper than just food. We spoke about Simon’s personal journey and what led him to become one of the most trusted names in the health space, as well as the challenges he still faces today. He opens up about dealing with imposter syndrome and constantly feeling like he’s not enough, even with everything he’s accomplished. We also unpack some of the biggest nutrition myths floating around online and what the actual science says instead. Simon shares some practical principles that anyone can apply to improve their health, without overcomplicating it. When your inner voice tells you you’re not doing enough, don’t listen to it… Follow Simon: https://www.instagram.com/simonhill/ Follow Chris: https://www.instagram.com/morechrisgriffin/ Thank you to Switch Nutrition View my Chris Griffin Collection Page below to grab some of the products that I love and take daily.

Welcome to episode 61 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin. Today I sit down with Hunter McIntyre—one of the greatest endurance & hybrid athletes of our time, a three-time HYROX world champion, and an all-around larger-than-life character. Hunter is known for his insane fitness, unmatched competitiveness, and his jock-like persona online. But behind the records and the bravado is a wild story of rebellion, struggle, and transformation. He opens up about his troubled teenage years—getting into trouble, bouncing in and out of rehab centers, and being prescribed nearly every medication under the sun. It was a chaotic time that could have easily sent him down the wrong path permanently. We talk about the turning point—when everything changed and how he took control of his life, channeling that restless energy into becoming one of the most dominant endurance athletes in the world. He shares the lessons he learned along the way, from pushing physical and mental limits to understanding what truly matters in life. This was one of my favourite conversations to date. Hunter brings an insane amount of energy, honesty, and wisdom, and I think you’ll get a lot out of this one.

Welcome to episode 60 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin. Today I sit down with Dominique Elissa—a successful model, podcast host, and someone who’s been through some serious highs and lows. Dom has worked with some of the biggest brands in the world, but her journey hasn’t been all glitz and glamour. She opens up about struggling with insomnia, anxiety, and disordered eating during her early modelling days, the toll it took on her, and how she found a way to turn her life around. We also dive into something incredibly personal—her recent engagement and rushed wedding. When we recorded this episode just two weeks ago, she had only just said "yes" to the love of her life. But soon after, she had to fast-track her wedding due to her mother’s battle with cancer. She was adamant that her mum had to be there, so they made it happen—right in the hospital. An emotional rollercoaster, to say the least. Through it all, gratitude has been the anchor that’s kept Dominique grounded. She shares how practicing gratitude helped her navigate both rock-bottom moments and incredible highs, and why it’s such a crucial part of her life today.

Welcome to episode 58 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin. Today I sit down with 360, one of Australia’s biggest rappers. If you were into Aussie hip-hop in the early 2010s, you definitely knew his name. His album Falling & Flying blew up, and for a while, he was at the top of the game. But behind the success, things were falling apart. 360 has spoken before about his addiction to codeine, which got so bad he was taking up to 90 pills a day. It nearly killed him. In this chat, we go deep—not just into his rise and fall, but into the guilt and shame he still carries.  His parents think they failed him, but he insists they did nothing wrong. At one point, he completely broke down, sharing just how heavy it all still feels. This is one of the rawest episodes I’ve ever recorded. It’s about addiction, family, regret, the rise and fall of one’s career, the impact fame has on you, social media challenges and so, so, so, much more. Enjoy!

Welcome to episode 57 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin! In this episode, I sit down with my good mate Brad McDonnell, co-founder of Manna Vitality, to dive deep into life’s biggest questions.  What does it truly mean to be here? Why do we exist?  We unpack different ideologies, perspectives, and personal experiences around these questions—this one goes deep. One of the things that makes Brad unique is how he balances business and spirituality—two things that most people struggle to integrate. Usually, it’s one or the other, but Brad has managed to build a thriving business while staying grounded in his spiritual practices.  We get into how he found that balance, the challenges along the way, and what keeps him aligned in both areas. This conversation was raw, deep, and eye-opening. Whether you're someone chasing success, looking for more meaning in life, or just curious about different ways of thinking, this episode will leave you questioning everything (in the best way possible).

Welcome to episode 54 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin! Noah Hunter Dorsey steps into the podcast world for the first time, and he’s not holding back. This is one of those stories that makes you rethink what’s possible. Noah isn’t just a guy with multiple 7-figure businesses—he’s someone who’s lived a lot of life. Before the success, before the crazy marketing wins, he hit rock bottom. No money. No direction, in a city he didn’t like, wondering what the hell was next. In a last-ditch effort to figure himself out, he packed a bag and took off on a two-month, soul-searching journey to India. No business plans. No clear path. Just a deep dive into self-discovery. That trip changed everything. When he got back to Melbourne, he went all in on building his own businesses. Hustling, failing, learning—until one day, the universe decided to throw him a lifeline in the wildest way possible. Out of nowhere, his phone rings. On the other end? Bianca Censori. Kanye West’s wife. And she’s got a proposition: handle the marketing for Yeezy. Noah takes it on and completely flips the script. He scales sales from $40K a day to a jaw-dropping $19 million in a single day—thanks to a perfectly executed Super Bowl ad. From sleeping on the floor to pulling in numbers most people can’t even dream of. This was a good one! I can’t wait for you to tune in.

Welcome to episode 50 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin, a little milestone! I sit down with 4-time world champion kite surfer James Carew today. This guy is an absolute beast on the water and a legend in the sport, but there’s way more to him than just catching waves. James opens up about overcoming one of the most severe injuries of his career—a setback that would’ve ended things for most people. Instead, he came back stronger than ever, winning the world championship straight after. It’s a story of grit, resilience, and straight-up determination. We also dig into the people behind his success, especially his partner, who has been his rock through it all. James talks about how she’s been by his side during the highs and lows, helping him stay grounded and focused. And if you think his drive to win is just about personal glory, think again—so much of what James does is for his dad, who’s been a massive inspiration in his journey. With all that said however, James highlights how much of a solo journey it still is and how important it is to be comfortable in the solitude. This was a good one fam - enjoy!!

Welcome to episode 42 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin! This one is a deeply personal and special one. My guest is Sam Hope—Director of the Forbes Club, an incredible young entrepreneur at just 22, and more importantly, my best friend. Sam and I have been through everything together, from extreme highs to crushing lows. At one point, we were sharing a mattress on the floor of a studio apartment because our bed got mouldy. We merged our bank accounts just to scrape together enough for groceries and keep a roof over our heads. Those tough times shaped us, not just as individuals but also as a team. Now, we look back on those moments with pride, knowing they were the foundation for everything we’ve built since. They’re also just amazing memories to look back on. They are comparison points. Beyond the rawness of our shared story, we also dive into what makes Sam so extraordinary: his unparalleled networking skills. Sam has this rare ability to make people genuinely invested in him and his vision. He doesn’t just walk into a room—he owns it, leaving a lasting impression that gets him into spaces where opportunities flourish. In this episode, he breaks down how he does it and shares actionable insights on how you, too, can become a networking powerhouse. If you’ve ever wondered how to connect with people in a way that’s authentic and impactful, or if you’re facing challenges and need some inspiration to keep going, this conversation is for you. Sam’s wisdom, grit, and expertise will leave you motivated to level up your life, whether you’re an entrepreneur or just trying to figure things out.

I’m joined for the second time on the show, the fan favourite, Diogo Giglio – a man whose energy and positivity could brighten anyone’s day.  Diogo shares stories from his childhood, reflecting on the difficult experience of being bullied and how those early challenges shaped him into the person he is today. Our conversation dives into the realities of Diogo’s life as a business owner, where staying balanced can be tough, especially with the demands of work and family life. Diogo opens up about his faith and what it means to him, sharing a perspective on God that’s more about connection and purpose than traditional religion. It’s a real insight into how he finds meaning and guidance, even during life’s toughest moments. We also explore the concept of giving – something Diogo feels passionately about. He believes giving back is essential, especially when it’s difficult, and explains how that mindset has brought unexpected blessings into his life. This episode is packed with Diogo’s wisdom, positivity, and the kind of insights that can shift anyone’s perspective on life. Tune in to feel inspired, uplifted, and maybe take away a new way of looking at the world. Diogo’s story is a powerful reminder that even in the toughest times, we can find light, purpose, and joy.

Welcome to episode 39 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin! Our guest today is Oliver Cronin. Oliver is one of my best friends. We barely left each other during lockdown because we lived in the buildings next to each other. I had a little gym set up in my office.  Oliver would come over every day on my lunch break to train. While we would train he would play the new music he created that morning. This was before he gained millions of followers online. Oliver got signed to a major record label when he was 17 years old which led him to drop out of school to become a Rapper. He thought he made it at that moment but was quickly humbled by many challenges he had to face in those few years after.  Now 22 years old he has blown up on social media and is the most well known up and coming artist in the whole country and has been travelling around the world performing and creating music with some of the biggest names in the industry.

Welcome to episode 37 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin!  I’m joined by independent author Paul Millerd, best known for his best-selling book The Pathless Path and his latest release Good Work. Paul’s story is one of courage, transformation, and redefining what it means to live a successful life. After achieving everything he thought represented success, Paul realized it wasn’t truly fulfilling. In a bold move, he decided to “blow up” his conventional life and pursue writing—a choice that allowed him to find his version of "good work." During our conversation, Paul and I dive deep into his journey and unpack lessons about breaking free from societal expectations to follow a path that truly serves your soul. Whether you're looking for inspiration or practical advice, this episode will leave you questioning what success really means and how to find your own "good work." What you should expect to hear in this episode is Paul defining what Good Work is, how the first step to living the life you want to live is to blow up your current one, how having a season of solitude is important, how there is three different forms of marriages in your life, self gaslighting and much much more. This was a great episode and all I ask is that if you enjoy this episode with a friend you think it will help.

Welcome to episode 36 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin!  My guest today is Noah Rolette, one of the founders of Raw Dawg Run Club, a group that has taken the running world by storm. What began as a small, casual run among friends has quickly become one of the largest and most vibrant run clubs globally, known for its lively atmosphere and unique approach to fitness. In this episode, Noah opens up about the journey he and his best friends went through—from sharing a cramped room at his parents’ house, moving into a small, moldy flat, to suddenly blowing up on social media. In just over a year, they've transformed their lives, and the story of how they built Raw Dawg into a global movement is absolutely insane!  Raw Dawg Run Club's philosophy of “raw-dogging life” resonates with many people who are tired of traditional gym culture. The name itself may seem provocative, but Noah explains that it represents a mindset of tackling life head-on without over-preparation. Their viral content on Instagram helped the club gain massive traction, resulting in thousands of people showing up to run at their club.

Welcome to episode 35 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin! We dive into the incredible story of Cru Mahoney today, a man whose extreme approach to life has made him stand out in today’s world.  Cru has never touched alcohol, caffeine, drugs, or even supplements in his life, and he’s proud of it. In fact, a video of him discussing his "lame" lifestyle choices went viral, racking up 50 million views and turning him into a social media sensation. What’s more, Cru has gone for a run every day for the last 2300 days—yes, every single day. He shares what motivates him to maintain such intense discipline, why he chooses to live outside the norm, and how this approach has shaped his success and happiness. This is an inspiring conversation with someone who’s truly committed to living life on his own terms, no shortcuts, no distractions, and definitely no excuses. I just absolutely love speaking to people that are unique. People that are actually doing things for them, living on their own terms and coming up with their own conclusions. It’s so refreshing.

Welcome to episode 32 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin! I sit down with the lovely Lily Ford in this episode, a prominent voice in anti-vaping campaigns who’s been featured extensively on Australian news.  Lily shares her raw and honest story of how she became addicted to vaping and the hidden traumas that fuelled it.

Lily also opens up about her transformative healing journey, exploring the emotional work that led to her recovery. She shares her unique insights on mental health awareness and how she learned to address the root causes of her struggles. We unpack how addiction often masks deeper pain, and what it took for her to confront that pain head-on.

Welcome to episode 30 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin! I sit down with Timothy Smith today, the familiar face from Married at First Sight (MAFS), who shares a gripping and emotional journey that goes far beyond reality TV. Tim opens up about a time in his life when he was involved in illegal activities, including flying a helicopter without a license and trafficking weed from Canada into the U.S. His risky decisions caught up with him, leading to his arrest and time behind bars.  But the challenges didn’t stop there. While in jail, Tim faced heartbreaking losses—his mother passed away, and soon after, his brother took his own life. Despite these devastating experiences, Timothy found a way to turn his life around. Appearing on Married at First Sight was one of those things that helped change the trajectory of his life. I loved this one. Shout out to my mum for telling me about Tim. She wouldn’t shut up about how amazing he was and that I had to have him on the show. Enjoy fam!

Welcome to episode 29 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin! Today I’m joined by two of my really good friends, Jordan and Zac Stenmark, who are not just the largest twin male models in the world but also remarkable individuals with an inspiring story. We dive into their sporty upbringing and the challenges they faced growing up with dyslexia. Jordan and Zac candidly share their experiences of being bullied at school for not being able to read, making school life a constant struggle. Jordan referred to these times in the episode as “terror”. Despite these difficulties, they turned their challenges into the drive that led them to where they are today. I’ve known Jordan and Zac for years, and we used to catch up every morning over coffee at our favourite cafe in Bondi, The Depot. Our conversations often drifted into deep, interesting topics, and this episode felt like a continuation of those daily chats. I loved this one fam and I hope you do too!

Welcome to episode 28 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin!  Wow, wow, wow… This episode is probably my favourite to date.  I sit down with CJ Bloomfield, a man whose life story sounds like something straight out of a movie. CJ's journey is nothing short of extraordinary, going from a life immersed in crime and gang culture to being sentenced to 28 years in prison. However, fate had other plans for him—he served just 2 years after his two biggest charges were dropped. But what CJ did with those 2 years is what makes his story truly remarkable. While in solitary confinement, CJ began honing his acting skills, using the graffiti on his cell wall as an imaginary camera. Little did he know that this practice would set him on a path that would change his life forever. Two years after leaving prison, CJ landed a role in a movie alongside Chris Hemsworth, and his life took a complete 180. Now, he's on track to becoming a major A-list celebrity with some massive projects in the works. We dive deep into his incredible transformation, discussing the lessons CJ learned along the way, the healing journey he's undertaken, and what it takes to turn your life around in the most profound way possible. I could write a full book recapping this episode but I will leave it there - you will just have to tune in! I’m excited to hear your thoughts.

Welcome to episode 26 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin!  We're joined by Kyle Hunt today, whose life story is nothing short of extraordinary. Kyle was left at a stop sign at just 2 years old and found by a truck driver… I know that may be hard to believe but it happened. He also was in a police chase with his mum and step dad when he was 5 years old, just moments before he watched his parents go to jail, resulting in young Kyle to go back into foster care. Kyle's early years were spent navigating the foster care system. By the age of 11, he decided to take control of his fate and ran away from home. Fast forward to today, Kyle has built an impressive 8-figure health care business and has set his targets to become a billionaire by 30. His journey is now gaining traction on social media, where he's documenting his path and inspiring others with his story. Crazy story this week all! If you feel like your problems are big or you’ve been dealt a bad hand of cards, listen to this and you’ll realise no matter what you’ve gone through, you can achieve everything you’ve ever wanted.

Welcome to episode 25 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin!  We're sitting down with Patrick Murtagh today, a guy whose journey is nothing short of extraordinary.  I first met Patty playing AFL with the GC Suns here in Australia. I was in the academy when he got drafted. Things took a turn when he got dropped from the team a few years later, but he didn't let that stop him. He kept grinding and eventually got drafted into the NFL. But, as life would have it, just before he could sign his NFL contract, an injury sent him back home. Most people would have thrown in the towel, but not Patty. He worked even harder, pushed through the rehab, and got picked up by the Jaguars. What's truly inspiring about Patty is his dedication to his family. He's doing all of this to support his mum and sister, especially after losing his father to cancer. This episode dives deep into Patty's highs and lows, his relentless spirit, and the love that keeps him going. This story was wild… An eye opener for sure. Enjoy!

Tobi is a business powerhouse here in Australia. He founded Sweat, a fitness empire, and sold it for a whopping $300 million.

Welcome to episode 23 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin!  In this episode, I’m sitting down with the ultimate power couple, Meg and Will Martin. Their story is a blend of love, resilience, and incredible achievements that you won't want to miss. I was blown away by these. In fact, I resonated so much with their story and phase of life they’re in right now. Will became a millionaire at just 24 years old, working alongside his brother. However, life took a dramatic turn when he had a major falling out with his family. Choosing to give up everything, Will started from scratch, navigating the challenges of rebuilding his life. Adding to the complexity, his family didn't like Meg and blamed her for the fallout. Despite the family drama, Meg and Will stood by each other, proving that their bond is unbreakable. Their journey is a testament to their strength and love. On a different note, Meg and Will recently clinched the title of best couple in the world at the Hyrox fitness competition. If you haven't heard of Hyrox, it's a hugely popular fitness competition that tests both physical and mental endurance. Their win showcases their dedication and teamwork in the fitness world. In this episode, we explore their journey, discussing the highs and lows, the importance of doing everything together, and the challenges they faced along the way. Meg and Will share how they manage to keep their relationship strong despite the obstacles and what it means to be a true power couple. This was a GOODIE fam.

Welcome to episode 21 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin!  Today I sit down with my great friend Ollie Moore, whose incredible journey took him from living in a country town in the UK to now living in the sunny Gold Coast in Australia. Initially, Ollie made the move as a way to escape his problems, but it turned out to be the best decision he ever made, transforming his life for the better. Ollie has always been super into health and fitness but now his main focus is strength and endurance training, preparing for the Hyrox competitions he is competing in this year.  We delve into the challenges he faced along the way, including the devastating loss of his two grandmothers, a painful breakup, and an injury that prevented him from training—the one thing he loves most. Ollie opens up about how he managed to navigate these tough times and the valuable lessons he’s learned.

Welcome to episode 20 of The Pocket with Chris Griffin!  I sit down with a good friend and absolute legend Diogo Giglio, one of the most positive and inspiring individuals I've ever met. Diogo's energy is simply infectious, and his story will leave you feeling uplifted and motivated, that’s a promise. Diogo's journey is nothing short of extraordinary. At just 13 years old, he was kicked out of his home in Brazil because he refused to follow the strict religious beliefs of his family. Alone and determined, he moved from country to country, eventually immigrating to Australia, a country he'd never been to, and is building an incredible life for himself. Today, Diogo runs a highly successful construction and development company called GCD, and he shares his life with his loving partner, Alisha. We delve deep into Diogo's story, exploring the challenges he faced and the triumphs he achieved along the way. Diogo opens up about his unique perspective on religion, discussing the difference between his strong connection to God yet his strong dislike to religion. He believes that religion was created to divide people and envisions a future where it no longer exists. Our conversation on this topic is thought-provoking and insightful. Throughout the episode, we also touch on various topics we're passionate about, from personal growth to the power of positivity. Diogo's resilience and outlook on life are truly inspiring, and I'm sure his story will be eye opening to anyone who listens.

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.
