This chat started with plenty of laughs before we even hit record, but it quickly turned into one of those conversations that reminds you what real friendship actually looks like. Mike and I unpacked why making genuine friendships as adults is so bloody hard, how easy it is to let relationships drift without ever saying what we're really thinking, and why communication matters far more than most of us realise.

We also wandered into some really honest territory around belonging, gratitude, giving feedback, accepting praise (something I clearly still struggle with), and the stories we tell ourselves about success and failure. Mike shared one of the most powerful lessons from losing his legs and how embracing, rather than hiding, what happened changed the way he saw himself forever.

It's a conversation about friendship, identity, resilience, and the courage to tell the people in your life that they matter. Plus, plenty of completely unnecessary tangents, sarcasm, and evidence that some of the best conversations happen when there's absolutely no plan.

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.
