The Fight Within is a podcast about the battles you don’t see.


Hosted from a place of real-life adversity, this show was born after a life-changing diagnosis. A brain tumour, later confirmed as aggressive cancer, and a decision to fight differently, not by ignoring reality, but by choosing mindset, presence, and resilience in the face of it.


The name comes from boxing, but this isn’t about punches.

It’s about the internal fights we all face:

self-doubt, fear, pressure, identity, and the voice in your head when things get hard.


As a boxing coach working with young people from all walks of life, one truth stands out:

The real fight isn’t in the ring, it’s within.

And that applies to all of us.


From hospitals to classrooms, from homes to boardrooms, everyone is carrying something. Everyone is under pressure. And how we respond internally shapes everything externally.


This podcast explores mindset, resilience, and performance under pressure through honest conversations with people who understand that inner game, from athletes and coaches to leaders, thinkers, and individuals with powerful life experiences.


It’s not about illness. It’s about perspective. It’s about learning how to steady yourself when life gets heavy.

Because if you can master what’s happening inside… You change what’s possible outside.


Whether you're in a fight right now or preparing for one ahead. This space is here to give you tools, clarity, and strength.

Because everyone is fighting something.


Welcome to The Fight Within.

    The Fight Within Podcast | Episode 3 with Karen Underwood
    Apr 13 2026

    What happens when life doesn’t go the way you planned?


    In this episode of The Fight Within, I sit down with Karen Underwood — one of the most respected voices in Irish jazz and soul — for a conversation that goes far beyond music.


    From growing up in Chicago to building a life in Cork, Karen’s journey is one of change, identity, and resilience. This isn’t just about her career on stage… it’s about the person behind it — the experiences that shape you, test you, and ultimately define you.


    We talk about life taking unexpected turns, how relationships and identity evolve over time, and what it really means to keep going when things get tough.


    There’s honesty in this conversation. There’s depth. And there’s also plenty of laughs along the way.


    This is a real one.

    The Fight Within | Episode 2 with Gary Stewart


    What does leadership look like when you're carrying the weight of an entire sport?

    In this episode of The Fight Within, I sit down with Gary Stewart, CEO of Boxing Ireland, a man operating at the sharp end of decision-making in one of Ireland’s most successful and deeply rooted sports.


    We explore the internal side of leadership, pressure, responsibility, judgment, and the reality of making tough decisions when the stakes are high and opinions are everywhere. Gary shares his journey through Irish sport, from grassroots development to leading organisations, and what it takes to guide boxing through a pivotal period of change.


    This conversation goes beyond sport. It’s about staying steady under pressure, leading with clarity, and managing the internal fight that comes with responsibility.
