    Shout Out Fight Podcast #178 "When it's not about the titles, and all about the fight! - Sandy Heilig from Chang Noi Muay Thai"

    Hello Fighty Friends! I tried getting this podcast out earlier... but I was on holidays and now trying getting this out while I sit at the Ottawa airport on my way back to Calgary. This episode I get to chat with Sandy Heilig from Chang Noi Muay Thai in New Zealand - Sandy has recently been quite popular on platforms like instagram showcasing her coaching skills and knowledge in Muay Thai, sharing her openness about mental health struggles and simply being as real as they come - which we know doesn't happen much on social media! We chat her life in Muay Thai "back in tha day" and some of the bigger moments and memories from that era. We discuss her helping pave the way for female fighters in Australia in the 90's - as well as some of the struggles for women to be able to compete regularly at the time. We also talk about her love to fight more than winning titles, and taking any opportunity that comes her way for a tilt and why? Sandy also lets us in on her gym she had running, why she had to let it go, the lessons learned, the memories gained and a change needed for HER to live better moving forward inside and outside of Muay Thai. Wether it's talking Muay Thai or life - Sandy is a real one! I love talking to the older generation and the lessons learned from their time under the Muay Thai lights. You can genuinely see Sandy is exactly as you see her online as in person - and I think this has been a huge part of her recent success, and I hope only more success comes her way - SHOUT OUT TO YOU SANDY!!

    Shout Out Fight Podcast #177 - Zach "FLASH" Flores and a highlight reel KO!"

    Hello from Kelowna fight fam! I'm on vacation currently, but still PUMPING out pods for the people! Today I talk to fighter and coach out of Pu'u Muay Thai in Ventura California Zach FLASH Flores! Zach had a big fight about 1 month ago at the COOLEST gym ever in Vegas (One Kick's Gym) and came away with a BEAUT of a KO - so, I wanted to have a chat about it!! I ask Zach to breakdown the KO for us in real time as well the fight up to the finish. We chat about his fight style he USED to have, to what he has turned it into. Of course I ask Zach who his favourite fighters are and if he had an opportunity to train with one fighter exclusively for 1 week - who would it be? I also ask Zach about why he competes and what he wants out of Muay Thai fighting? while most chase title and glory - for Zach, his titles and glory are his self respect!! Zach lets us in on how childhood trauma mixed with anger, lack of self confidence, but yet with an overwhelming feeling of needing to protect his family as a Cub, brought him to the Muay Thai life. Zach tells us that he still has to deal with those "demons" from his past - but through Muay Thai he's found purpose, drive and the competition to help scratch the itch. MORE IMPORTANTLY - in a positive, team oriented atmosphere and encouraging environment where people want to see you succeed and will champion you the whole way. THIS IS THE MARTIAL ARTS WAY! Great chat with a humble young man looking to make a name in Muay Thai for himself, as well as pass it down to the "little Zach's" of the next generation - SHOUT OUT TO YOU ZACH!!
