In this episode of the Barrelled Surf Podcast, Namu drops in for a proper yarn with Freya Prumm — one of Australia’s most powerful and quietly driven surfers… who somehow juggles life as a fully qualified pharmacist while competing on the world stage. Yes, seriously. Rail turns and airs by morning, prescriptions by afternoon.We dig into Freya’s journey through competitive surfing, the mental game behind high-pressure heats, and the waves that have built both her confidence and her fear (sometimes in the same session). Balancing a career in pharmacy with the chaos of the world tour, Freya breaks down discipline, sacrifice, and what it really takes to chase performance when your schedule is doing airs of its own.From QS grind realities to flow-state moments, board choices, training routines, and surf trips that definitely didn’t go to plan — this episode pulls the curtain back on pro surfing beyond the highlight reel (and the Instagram filters).There’s plenty of laughs, honest reflection, and proper surf-culture gold as Freya proves you can be both clinically precise and absolutely feral on a rail (and in the air)— all while holding onto the love of surfing that got her there in the first place.If you’re into real surf talk, performance mindset, and stories from the road — this one’s for you.
