What does it take to win in the boxing ring? What does it take to win in life? Hard work? Choices? Commitment? Sacrifice? Dedication? Discomfort? Well, I ask someone who's raised her hand against all sorts of crazy odds and vastly more often than not, came out on top.

With over 50 amateur fights and 29 professional bouts there's no denying that 'Shotgun' Shannon O'Connell is one of Australia's very best female boxers. Ranked #8 Bantamweight in the world and #1 Bantamweight in Australia I'm sure not picking a fight with Shotgun anytime soon. The first time I saw Shannon fight in person was 2014 competing against a brutally tough opponent Diana Prazak and I distinctly recall noting the power, athleticism and grit Shannon displayed. 

A fighter, a mother, a business owner and a daughter choosing not the follow in the footsteps of her heroin addicted mother. I love taking a peek behind the scenes of a high performers life and hearing what keeps that finely tuned motor running. Oh... and since recording this episode our girl Shannon won the 2021 City of Logan Sportswoman of the Year.

Congrats Shannon, yet another well deserved win!

Life hits hard. Good. So do we.
Roll With The Punches is a front-row seat to the messy, beautiful, brutal bits of being human.

Hosted by Tiff Cook - former boxer, coach, speaker, rascal, and someone who’s copped a few uppercuts from life and keeps getting back up. She sits down with global survivors, scientists, rebels, rockstars, and everyday legends to ask one thing:

What does it really take to get back up when life drops you?

We talk breakdowns, breakthroughs, big truths, and the bullsh*t we all carry. Behind the masks. Beneath the armour. Real conversations that crack something open in all of us.

We’re built to break.
And we become dangerous by design.
Honest work over hard work. Every damn time.
