#390 - SIMPLE WAYS TO TRANSFORM YOUR MENTAL HEALTH IN JUST 14 MINUTES A DAY with Cooper Chapman

Today’s episode is a beautiful reminder that creating a life you love doesn’t need to be overwhelming. I’m joined by the inspiring Cooper Chapman - former pro surfer and founder of The Good Human Factory - to dive into the simple daily practices behind his new book, The 1% Good Club, out October 1st, 2025. Cooper’s philosophy is delightfully doable: give just 1% of your day (14 minutes) to your mental health and watch small, consistent actions compound into a happier, more resilient life. We talk about how he shifted from chasing external validation as an athlete to living by personal values; the origin of his 1% Good Club community; and ten science-backed habits that anchor his wellbeing - from breathwork and gratitude to getting into nature, moving your body, and setting kinder phone boundaries. You’ll hear real stories, practical exercises you can try today, and a gentle nudge to focus on progress, not perfection. Four takeaways you’ll love:• Why tiny, repeatable actions beat big, unsustainable goals.• A 14-minute daily rhythm (meditation + gratitude) to reset your nervous system.• Five foundational values for steadier self-worth: responsibility, gratitude, empathy, mindfulness, and kindness.• A realistic way to track habits weekly so you can see your progress at a glance. Pop in your earbuds for a walk, or make a cup of tea, and let this conversation brighten your day.
