In this powerful and honest episode of the Good Humans Podcast, I sit down with Lockie Welch to talk about his journey from addiction and rock bottom moments to becoming a passionate mental health advocate and positive voice for thousands of people online.

Lockie opens up about what life looked like during his addiction, the turning points that helped him begin his recovery, and how doing the inner work completely changed the direction of his life. We dive into how he built a large and engaged social media community focused on mental health, vulnerability and real conversations that actually help people feel less alone.

One of the most fascinating parts of this chat is Lockie’s experience spending a month in Thailand completing a monk ordination. He shares what it was really like living as a monk, the daily routines, the mental challenges, and the powerful lessons he brought back into everyday life around presence, discipline and perspective.

This episode is full of hope, real talk and practical inspiration for anyone who has struggled, is struggling, or wants to better understand the journey of healing and growth.

• Lockie’s personal journey through addiction and recovery
• The mindset shifts that helped him rebuild his life
• How social media became a platform for purpose and impact
• The reality of becoming a monk in Thailand and what he learned
• Daily practices that support mental health and resilience
• Why vulnerability and honesty are powerful tools for healing

If you or someone you love has faced addiction or mental health challenges, this episode is a reminder that change is possible and that support, purpose and self work can completely transform your life.

Welcome to the first episode of the Good Humans Podcast for 2026.

I wanted to start this year with something powerful, practical, and a little different. That is why I invited Ole Hill, who is widely regarded as Australia’s leading hypnotist, onto the show.

In this episode, Ole and I dive into how hypnosis actually works, why so many of us struggle to follow through on our New Year’s resolutions, and how our subconscious mind plays a much bigger role in our behaviour than most people realise.

What makes this episode really special is that Ole guides us through a live hypnosis session during the conversation. This was designed to help you connect with your goals for 2026, let go of mental blocks, and set clear intentions for the year ahead. It is something you can come back to anytime you need a reset.

For me, this episode is about more than motivation. It is about creating real change by working with your mind rather than against it. If you are stepping into 2026 wanting more clarity, confidence, or alignment with your goals, this episode is a great place to start.

• What hypnosis really is and what it is not
• Why New Year’s resolutions often fail
• How the subconscious mind influences habits and decision making
• The role of focus, suggestion, and awareness in personal growth
• A live guided hypnosis session to support your 2026 goals
• Starting the year with intention rather than pressure

If you can, listen to this episode somewhere quiet, especially for the hypnosis section. Sitting or lying down comfortably and giving yourself permission to slow down will help you get the most out of it. - Please don't do the hypnosis while driving.

Thanks for being here and for kicking off 2026 with me. I hope this episode helps you feel clear, grounded, and excited for the year ahead.
