Finding Meaning Through Suffering with David James Seed

In the newest episode of Understanding Men, Luke and Fraser are joined by model and cold water breathwork practitioner David James Seed. David has built a community of people online through platforms such as Instagram and YouTube, and endeavours to help individuals face their fears and traumas through his work. David believes that getting people out into nature allows them to get out of their heads and into their hearts - where the real work is.

Through the episode, David details his personal journey, which began when he underwent surgery to remedy a condition called pectus excavatum. He credits the surgery with changing his life, not only as it allowed him to grow in confidence and pursue a successful career in modelling, but also experiencing the physical pain of surgery and the mental pain of childhood bullying has allowed him more compassion and understanding of others' suffering.
