What do boxing, public speaking, and personal transformation have in common? For Cam F. Awesome, everything.

In this episode of Speaking With Confidence, I sit down with Cam, a 12-time national boxing champion, motivational speaker, and self-described “motivational vegan,” to talk about the mindset behind powerful communication and unstoppable resilience.

Cam doesn’t just tell a comeback story, he lives one. Bullied as a kid and cut from every team he tried out for, Cam found boxing not as a passion, but as the only option left. He turned that into a decorated amateur career and a life dedicated to helping others reframe their inner narratives.

From the ring to the stage, Cam reveals the mental techniques that helped him dominate in the ring and how they can help you dominate your self-doubt. Whether you're battling imposter syndrome, speaking anxiety, or just trying to show up more authentically, this conversation offers a no-fluff roadmap to lasting confidence.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • Why confidence starts with your internal dialogue, not applause or approval
  • Cam’s daily “gratitude reps” that help him stay mentally strong and emotionally grounded
  • How to win conversations (and audiences) using storytelling techniques from the boxing ring
  • Why imposter syndrome is often just your brain trying to protect you—and how to punch back
  • The simple formula: belief + action = inevitable results

If you’ve ever felt like your fear of failing is louder than your voice, Cam’s philosophy will rewire the way you think. Because, as he says, “If you can fail without being discouraged, success becomes inevitable.”
