The Good Human Factory was built on a simple truth: every human has mental health, so every human should be actively taking care of it.
We exist to shift the conversation from crisis to prevention by teaching mental wellbeing as a daily practice. Instead of focusing on mental illness, we equip people with practical tools to regulate stress, build resilience and strengthen emotional health.
Through evidence-based workshops and keynotes, we work with schools, workplaces, sporting clubs and conferences across Australia, impacting over one million people nationwide since 2020.
Beyond the stage, The Good Human Factory has grown into a movement.
We host the Good Humans Podcast with over 12,000 subscribers and more than 800,000 downloads, sharing conversations with leading experts in neuroscience, psychology and performance.
We run a thriving online gratitude and mindfulness community, The 1% Good Club, supporting thousands of people to take small daily action for their mental health.
Our merchandise campaigns help fund workshops in schools and sporting clubs, and we partner with purpose-led brands including LSKD and Usher Group to expand our impact.
We also co-created Blue Minds with Surfers for Climate, delivering programs that teach young people practical skills to navigate eco anxiety and live more sustainably.
Mental health is not the same as mental illness.
It is something we all have.
And small daily habits can change your world.
ABOUT COOPER
Cooper Chapman is a former professional surfer, keynote speaker and best selling author dedicated to helping people take ownership of their mental wellbeing.
After spending 15 years competing internationally as a top 100 surfer in the world, Cooper experienced firsthand the pressure, identity shifts and performance demands that shape high achievers. Those lessons, combined with personal experiences close to home, led him to rethink how we approach mental health in Australia.
In 2020, he founded The Good Human Factory to deliver proactive, practical wellbeing education for schools, workplaces and sporting communities.
Since then, Cooper has spoken to over 70,000 people on stage across Australia and internationally, including at the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Brazil. His workshops and keynotes have generated thousands of positive testimonials and a 99% recommendation rating from participants.
He is also the creator and host of the Good Humans Podcast, where he has interviewed more than 200 leading thinkers across neuroscience, psychology, leadership and performance. The show has grown to over 800,000 downloads and a loyal audience of more than 12,000 subscribers.
In 2025, he released his best selling book The 1% Good Club, outlining a simple 14 minute daily framework to build resilience, focus and emotional strength in a distracted world.
At the heart of his work is a simple message:
We all have mental health.
And small, consistent daily action can change your life.
