Why do we sometimes push people away before they even get the chance to hurt us? And how much of what we call our personality is actually a bunch of survival strategies we picked up as kids?

I had an absolute cracker of a conversation with psychoanalyst Dr. Galit Atlas, who just happens to be the author of Come Closer, about childhood wounds, adult relationships and the stuff we carry into our grown-up lives without even realising it.

If you're a sucker to exploring the protective patterns we develop, the stories we tell ourselves to justify our behaviours, and things like Tiff Cook's emotional avoidance, abandonment issues and other dysfunctional adaptations she's had to overcome so far (or still has a way to go with) then buckle up for the ride and hit play on this bad boy...

Roll With The Punches is where we step into the ring and go toe to toe with the hard sh*t life throws our way.

Hosted by former boxing champ turned strength coach and speaker Tiff Cook, RWTP brings you big conversations with world-class guests about psychology, relationships, trauma, the brain, and the patterns that can make a bloody mess of our lives.

If you're curious about human behaviour, keen to challenge the stories you tell yourself, and want to understand why the hell you do what you do, you're in the right place. Tune in. Tiff's in your corner.

The goal? To question what you've always believed, understand yourself a little better, and turn those aha moments into actual change.

Because knowing better and doing better are two very different things.

And let's be honest... life's gonna keep throwing punches. We may as well learn how to roll with them.
