\nWelcome to the Doing Epic Stuff podcast with your host; Mike Drohan. Together we\u2019ll explore the stories and journeys of ordinary people doing extraordinary things. \u201cNo one is going to wear or throw a punch for you. No one does it in a boxing ring and no one does it in life.\u201d - Tiffanee Cook To underestimate Tiff would be a mistake. Under that \u2018laid back Aussie\u2019 demeanour and infectious giggle lies a weapon-of-a-human who has bested others in pursuit of \u2018the sweet science\u2019 otherwise known as boxing. Once a self-professed introvert with a \u2018I could take it or leave it\u2019 attitude toward fitness and her corporate career \u2013 when Tiff made a spur-of-the-moment decision to join a 12-week boxing challenge that required participants to fight in an actual professional event upon completion, she effectively switched off cruise control. Frenzied crowds. Bright Lights. Blood spilled. The whole 9 yards\u2026 Having experienced the thrill of the fight, boxing quickly became everything to Tiff. With a massive commitment to the sport came massive positive change in her life: The courage to launch her own multifaceted business; Tiffanee and co. (yes; a tongue in cheek play on the American luxury jewellery retailer of the same name..) The confidence to produce and host her own highly successful podcast: Roll With The Punches An ambassadorship with Code 9 Foundation: who provide support for professional first responders and phone operators living with PTSD and other debilitating mental health conditions. But not all change is considered \u2018good\u2019 in the world of boxing. Toughness and grit are each seen as assets and showing weakness of any nature; a potential threat not just to your career but your safety in the ring. Boxing, seemingly, had bestowed upon Tiff the gift of courage. Courage to confront past childhood trauma long since repressed, but once that emotional pandoras box was opened would she ever be the same fighter in the ring? Join Tiff and I as we explore active serendipity, the habits of an individual who is living her extraordinary and much more on this episode of the Doing Epic Stuff Podcast.
