#189 This week on Raw Reality, we sit down with Cooper Chapman, ex-professional surfer, mental health advocate, and founder of The Good Human Factory.
Cooper shares his journey from chasing success in elite sport to building a movement that helps make mental health conversations more approachable, practical, and accessible for everyday people. We dive into the pressures of professional surfing, tying self-worth to performance, and the life experiences that ultimately shaped his mission to help others.
Together, we unpack the power of small daily habits, the 1% Good Club, gratitude, mindfulness, purpose, and why mental health isn't just something we focus on when we're struggling it's something we need to nurture every day.
A conversation full of perspective, wisdom, and actionable takeaways that everyone can benefit from.

Birth is one of the most natural things the body is designed to do, yet for so many women it feels overwhelming, feared, or misunderstood.
In this episode, we’re joined by Shari from Belly2Birth to break down what hypnobirthing actually is, the stages of labour, and what’s really happening in the body during birth. We also dive into fear, mindset, and how they can shape the birth experience.
We discuss hospital interventions, inductions, epidurals, informed consent, and the cascade of interventions, giving you a clearer understanding of your options so you can feel informed and empowered.
This isn’t about a “perfect” birth it’s about understanding your body, your choices, and feeling confident no matter how your journey unfolds.
This is the birth education every woman should have access to.
