Layne Beachley has a list of achievements as long as the beach at Manly. She was inducted into the Sport Australia hall of fame in 2011, and elevated to legend in 2023. She won seven world surfing championships, including a record six in a row. She was a game changer in so many ways that her legacy goes well beyond the silverware. 

From fighting for pay equity in surfing to learning how to detach self-worth from achievements, Layne drops so many life lessons that Abbey immediately starts planning a wall of Post-it notes.

We discuss:

• Why women’s surfing was a “misogynistic shit show” for much of her career and how it changed
• The battle to achieve equal prize money and how it was done
• The difference between dream team members and dream thieves
• The one breathing technique that can change your day for the better
• How to find purpose after retiring from the very top
• What really happens when a giant wave wipes you out
• Why Kelly Slater still blows Layne’s mind
• The surprisingly small amount of prize money Layne earned across 19 years on tour, and why it's not unusual
