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

When Research Triggers Your Own Trauma | Nicole...

Roll With The Punches ·

2026/02/01

Nicole Liddell is doing her PhD on coercive control, specifically how technology gets used to keep the control going even after someone leaves. And honestly, the examples are equal parts terrifying and ridiculously sneaky. Bank transfers with threats in the reference line. Smart home systems taken over remotely. A bloody robovac being used like a creepy little spy cam on wheels. But the part that really landed was the human cost of researching this stuff when you’ve lived it. Nicole talks

The Day You Stop Being The Victim | Jason Blyth - 984

Roll With The Punches ·

2026/01/28

'Big Dog' Jason Blyth is BACK! An origin story so massive I didn't even attempt to cover it all in our first chat in episode 967... In our second chat (as we dart off in multiple directions along the way) we essentially came together to talk about Jason's biological father... what it was like seeking him out and meeting him, and the way trauma can shape identity like a shadow you didn’t ask for. We talk forgiveness and launch into the hero’s journey stuff, choice points, the dark cave,

Fired Up About Bushfires - Mick Harrington - 983

Roll With The Punches ·

2026/01/25

Mick Harrington is back, aka the Mower Man, and honestly I could listen to that bloke sing the phone book and still get emotional. But this time round we are getting fired up on all things bushfires... Funding. Public land management. The gap between decisions made in Spring Street and the reality on the ground when your town is literally on fire. Mick talked about communities being left vulnerable, old trucks, not enough fuel reduction, not enough basic roadside slashing, and the mental toll that

The Aftermath of Christian Patriarchy - Cait West - 982

Roll With The Punches ·

2026/01/21

Imagine what its like growing up in a religious cult... Cait managed to wriggle herself free from the Christian Patriarchy in her mid 20's... breaking free from a rigid belief system and an emotionally abusive father.. Cait was homeschooled, isolated, taught that obedience was love and silence was safety. No choices. No agency. No room for anger, desire, or even curiosity. We talked about courtship instead of dating, emotional purity instead of emotional literacy, and what it does to a person when

Worry, Control, Acceptance & Intuition | Andrea...

Roll With The Punches ·

2026/01/18

In this chat with Andrea Gullick gets right into the uncomfortable stuff. Loss, identity, control, and the stories we tell ourselves just to keep functioning. Andrea shared what it was like losing her husband suddenly, navigating a baby with cancer, and becoming a young widow while still trying to look like she was coping. We talked about the mask of being strong, how long you can wear it for, and what happens when it finally cracks. We dug into worry, intuition, anxiety, and the difference between

New Year, Same You, Now What | Harps & Tiff - 980

Roll With The Punches ·

2026/01/14

Alright, so this one is basically Harps and I coming in hot for 2026 like, hello fresh page, who dis. We riff hard on the weird psychology of dates, New Year’s resolutions, and why humans act like January 1 is some magical portal when it’s literally just a number on a calendar... not to mention the thing nobody wants to admit, that most people want the reward without the work, and we keep trying to find the outcome without the discomfort. Fresh year, real talk, and a reminder that you

Reverse Puberty: The Perimenopause Reckoning | Dr....

Roll With The Punches ·

2026/01/11

Part two with Dr. Carrie Jones and yet again, this one hit the mark. We talked about the part of perimenopause no one prepares you for, the motivation drop, the mood shifts, the weight gain that shows up even when you 'haven’t changed anything,' and the identity wobble that makes you question your own operating system. Carrie broke down what’s actually happening under the hood. Hormones influencing energy, fat loss, recovery, brain chemistry, sleep, joints, even why frozen shoulder seems

Chosen Suffering | Jay Stevens - 978

Roll With The Punches ·

2026/01/07

Seven years ago Jay Stevens was in a helicopter that plummeted from the sky at Uluru. He fell out of the sky from about 120 metres, shattered his body, ended up with a spinal cord injury, and spent months in hospital and rehab. And instead of making peace with 'that’s it,' he went full mad scientist on his own recovery, obsessively training, visualising, rebuilding pathways, and stacking tiny process wins until he took his first steps FOUR years later. We talk chosen suffering, the hard we

What Happened To You? How Trauma Affects The Brain |...

2026/01/04

After Bruce recently joined me for another ah-mazing chat, I thought ya'll might appreciate a throwback to our first conversation on the show... So, here ya go... Enjoy!Is dissociation actually a superpower that's been given a bad rap? Why does trauma make some memories so vivid, yet lock others away in a seemingly inaccessible vault? Can how we view our story determine whether we experience post-traumatic growth vs post-traumatic stress disorder? Did you know it takes as little as a 10-minute

Emotional Second-Hand Smoke | Harps & Tiff - 976

Roll With The Punches ·

2025/12/31

In this chat, Harps and I are talking about how we absorb people without realising it... just by being around them. Their moods, their outlook, their weird little phrases, their emotional vibe (there's an actual term for that... it's called emotional contagion), and how all this stuff seeps straight into our system. No consent form. No conscious effort. Old mate Harps call it 'social osmosis'. It’s basically emotional second-hand smoke. Sometimes it’s toxic, sometimes it’s a deep

2025/12/28

In this one I drag our mate Patrick Bonello back in for what starts as a chat about planes and paragliders and in no time at all turns into a masterclass on fear, instinct and why our brains are absolute freaks of nature as we riff onfight or flight, muscle memory and the 'physics engine' in your brain that calculates traffic, balance and punches faster than you could ever think.

Living, Yet Dying... | Stephen Jenkinson - 974 (695...

Roll With The Punches ·

2025/12/24

After Stephen recently revisited the show for our second ah-mazing conversation it reminded me what a hit this first chat we had was with myself and listeners... so in the spirit of dishing up some great content to prompt you to reflect deeply on life, I dare say this one might be just the thing for wrapping up this time of year... 'We're all dying from the moment we are born.' It's the truth, but a truth we never really acknowledge or contemplate. I never could have imagined how much I was going to

Life... Maybe the Good Matches the Bad | Tiff Cook -...

2025/12/21

G’day team, this one’s me, myself, and my end of year brain dump. A little Christmas wrap-up where I’m basically talking to the void and hoping it talks back in downloads. I unpack what’s actually shifted this year, not just the highlight reel stuff. The Himalayas still has my heart in a chokehold, the Dandenongs became my weekly nervous system defrag, and jumping into Jacq’s speaking world cracked my routine wide open and handed me a whole new room of people, craft,

Zero Limbs, Infinite Perspective | Tom Nash - 972

Roll With The Punches ·

2025/12/17

Well, this one was a ride. Tom Nash rolled into the studio with zero limbs, two hooks, a pirate vibe, and honestly one of the sharpest senses of humour I've ever tried to keep up with. We covered everything from meningococcal to martinis to Sharknado (yeah, you read that right) and somehow landed on life philosophy that was equal parts hilarious and profound. He talked me through losing all four limbs at 19 like he was describing a flat tyre, then dropped these ridiculous one-liners that had me

Love Them So Well They Feel Safe To Leave | Jamie...

Roll With The Punches ·

2025/12/14

Jamie Stedman is back in the saddle and we waste zero time going deep. We pick up where we left off last time - shitty childhood, DV, nearly dying, Steve Irwin, all of it - and drop straight into the messy stuff that shapes how we love, parent and show up. Jamie and I talk about the difference between 'getting over it' and just 'getting through it,' why the language we use around our own pain quietly scripts our whole story, and what happens when girls grow up tightroping for acceptance then end up

Mate… this conversation with Mel lit me up. She is a walking spark plug, a human espresso shot, the Energiser Bunny with better lipstick. I knew she had a big story but holy hell, sitting across from her and hearing the layers, the grit, the heartbreak, the humour, the joy… it hit different. We talked about growing up in chaos, carrying responsibilities no kid should ever carry, and somehow finding a way to build compassion instead of bitterness. We talked about addiction, foster care,

Energy, Friendships and Letting Go | Heidi Horne - 969

Roll With The Punches ·

2025/12/07

Today I sat down with the absolute pocket rocket that is Heidi Horne and we went everywhere from kids having meltdowns to middle aged women building apps and writing books. Heidi is an author, speaker, coach and mum who has spent years teaching everyone from tiny humans to stressed out adults how to actually reset, not just talk about it. We talk about why kids are basically little mirrors for our own emotional tantrums, how easily they love, how quickly they connect, and how much we shut that down

2025/12/03

Holy moly, this convo with Dr Libby lit me up like a kid on red cordial. Every time she’s on the show I swear my brain grows three sizes and suddenly wants to eat more iron. We covered everything from perimenopause mayhem to the way adrenaline hijacks our days, to why half of us are out here living like exhausted, over-stimulated, iron-deficient potatoes.And honestly, Libby is so bloody good at weaving science with soul (#SeeWhatIDidThere) that I find myself wanting to text every woman I know

A Life That Should Have Broken Him | Jason Blyth - 967

Maaaate, I thought I was ready for this one. I really did. I’ve heard Jason speak. I know the shape of his story. But sitting down with him in this format was a completely different beast. If you think you've heard some rough rides on this show, this one takes it up a level... There’s something about the way he unpacks his life - the trauma, the chaos, the faith, the identity stuff - that just hits different when it’s not on a stage… just him, sitting across from you telling

Self-Compassion or Self-Sabotage? | Craig Harper - 966

Roll With The Punches ·

2025/11/26

Ever wonder if you’re being too hard on yourself… or not hard enough? Welcome to the club. In this episode Harps and I throw ourselves into the old messy middle where self-improvement meets self-compassion. We call out the way we talk to ourselves and question when does the “you’ve got this” turn into delusion, and when 'being honest' becomes you verbally drop-kicking your own soul. Typical us... a lil' wisdom, a lil' chaos, a whole lot of laughs. SPONSORED BY TESTART
