Welcome to the Creative Nowhere Land Podcast.
The aim of the podcast is to bring you interesting and inspiring guests. And on this episode, we are joined by someone who inspires me regularly. Three times a week, in fact. My boxing coach, my friend, and armchair philosopher, James Collings.
You might be thinking, why has he got a boxing coach on the podcast?
Well, we discuss how boxing is an art. It could be considered as one of the ultimate forms of creativity, as it requires skill, imagination, and split-second problem-solving. It's like violent chess, but with consequences, and it can teach us more than we might imagine about not only ourselves, but about life.
We go into detail about the benefits of combat sports, like boxing, to take you out of your comfort zone, build resilience, humility, and the perseverance to keep going through adversity.
We talk about strength, vulnerability, and how to stop being held back by the fear of being judged because, realistically, no one will ever judge you harder than you judge yourself.
We also discuss James's creative journey, his talent for music, and boxing. His time spent studying at the Royal College of Music in London, and how the two skill sets overlap.
We talk about James starting his own gym, THE JAB LAB and his YouTube channel that provides workouts and great insights into the world of boxing.
We also talk about philosophy and the importance of having strong values, smiling at strangers and enjoying your life. And we explain why it's better to be a warrior in a garden than a gardener in a war.
