    IN FLOW / 04: PASSION — What Happens When You Follow What You Love? Kevin Langeree

    Kevin Langeree has spent more than 20 years following what he loves. That path took him from struggling at school to becoming a world champion, multiple Red Bull King of the Air winner and eventually co-founder of Reedin. But what happens when your passion becomes your career? And how do you keep following it when life gets more complicated? Kevin and I talk about the early days of kitesurfing, winning a world title, dealing with a major injury, building a company just as COVID hit, becoming a father and learning that the mindset that made him successful as an athlete doesn’t always work in the next chapter of life. We talk about passion, obsession, failure, patience, intuition, family and knowing when to push and when to let go. At the heart of the conversation is a simple idea: Find what you love. Follow it. And give it time. Less Noise. More Life.

    IN FLOW / 03: COURAGE How Do You Turn Fear Into Courage?

    IN FLOW / 03: COURAGE What if courage isn't about getting rid of fear, but learning how to move with it? Matt Bromley surfs some of the biggest waves in the world. But what I find interesting about Matt is that he doesn't see himself as fearless. He actually describes himself as conservative, someone who doesn't enjoy taking risks and who still gets scared before a big swell. So I wanted to understand what happens between feeling fear and actually going for it. We talk about his first experiences in big waves, a serious accident in Puerto Escondido and one night before a huge swell at Jaws that changed his career. We also talk about preparation, self-talk, intuition, surrender and what Matt has learned from putting himself into situations where there is no way to control everything. And of course, this isn't really just about surfing. It's about the moments in life when something is calling you, but fear is telling you to stay where you are. How to prepare for moments that scare you. How to tell the difference between fear that protects you and fear that holds you back. Why trying to eliminate fear might be the wrong goal. How to stay calm when you can't control the outcome. And why some of the best moments in life might be waiting on the other side of fear. One simple line from Matt probably sums it up best: "I'm scared, but I can do it anyway." Matt and I are taking a lot of what we talk about in this episode into the real world. This November we're hosting the Watermen Leadership Experience in Cape Town, an 8-day ocean-based experience built around challenge, fear, flow, decision-making under pressure and learning through real experiences.

    IN FLOW / 02 — PRESENCE with Shifu Zuan

    IN FLOW / 02 — PRESENCEwith Shifu Zuan IN FLOW is a series of ten conversations exploring ten different human themes, all connected by one question: What helps us get back into flow and feel truly alive? Episode 02 is about PRESENCE. And I couldn't think of anyone better to explore it with. For almost 15 years, Shifu Zuan has been part of my journey. What started with my first experience in a Shaolin temple eventually became years of training together, in parks, at home, in the temple and sometimes over Zoom while I was traveling. He has taught me a lot about movement, discipline and martial arts. But the lessons that stayed with me most go far beyond physical training. How do you stay calm when there is pressure around you? How do you build real discipline without becoming rigid? How do you know when to push and when to let go? And what happens when we stop constantly looking for the next thing and learn to be fully present with what is already in front of us? One of my earliest lessons from him came when I was told to sweep the same staircase again and again. I wanted to finish the task and move on. Eventually I understood that the task itself wasn't the point. It was how I was doing it. That idea has followed me into competition, big waves, business, fatherhood and everyday life. In this conversation, Shifu Zuan and I reflect on some of the lessons from our years together. We talk about Shaolin philosophy, Qi Gong, discipline, presence, inner strength, patience, fear, the relationship between body and mind, and why slowing down can sometimes take us further than constantly pushing harder. This episode is less about becoming a Shaolin monk. It is about what ancient practices can teach us about living in a very modern, very noisy world. Because presence is not about escaping life. It is about actually being there for it.

    IN FLOW / 01 CHOICE. "You always have a choice"

    Davey du Plessis — You Always Have a Choice Davey du Plessis was attempting to cross the Amazon from source to sea when he was ambushed and shot four times. Alone, badly wounded and unable to call for help, he had to make a choice: keep moving or give up. He chose to live. In this conversation, we talk about what happened in the jungle, fear, survival, resilience and what that experience changed in Davey. But what interested me most wasn't just the extreme story. It was the idea behind it: You always have a choice. We can't control everything that happens to us. But even when circumstances seem completely out of our hands, there may still be a choice in how we respond and what we do next. This is IN FLOW / 01 — CHOICE. IN FLOW started as an experiment. I want to sit down with people who inspire me and explore one idea through their experiences. One person. One experience. One theme. Not just what they achieved, but what they learned along the way — through fear, failure, success, uncertainty, change and the moments that shaped them. I'm not looking for a formula for a better life. I'm interested in staying curious, trying things and learning from people who have actually lived through something. More experimenting. Less optimizing. About IN FLOW Hosted by Florian Jung. less noise. more life Instagram: @flowrider213 Supported by UMU.global
