#324 Neil O’Connor on Cancer, Karate, Firefighting & Never Giving Up


Listen Later

In this episode of the Anxious Black Belt Podcast, I sit down with Sensei Neil O’Connor — martial artist, firefighter, bodybuilder, and cancer survivor.

Now over 70 years old and still actively training, Neil shares his incredible life journey through karate, strength training, emergency service, and his battle with cancer. We talk about resilience, discipline, mindset, aging, health, martial arts philosophy, and what keeps him moving forward when most people would slow down.
