Flow or Die: Big wave surfer João Macedo on finding peace inside a collapsing skyscraper of water
On todays podcast we have João Macedo. João was one of the first to surf the monstrous waves at Nazaré — a true pioneer in big wave riding. He’s faced walls of water the size of eight-storey buildings at spots like Mavericks and Nazaré, with no rope, no safety net, and only seconds to survive if anything goes wrong.
His life is built around timing, feel, and flow — the same principles that drive elite performance in every arena. From Portugal, Australia, California, from spiritual clarity to brutal hold-downs, he’s built a life on his intuition, flow, at the edge of survival. This is what it means to live with purpose and trusting the dots will connect. I hope you enjoy.
