The Talking TradesmanYou can become a fighter and still carry the fear of the child you once were. Will Demitzel speaks openly about how childhood trauma followed him into later life — depression, anxiety and struggling to process his emotions. Even now, there are moments where he has to remind himself that he isn’t that frightened kid anymore. He’s a bare-knuckle fighter. He’s faced things head-on that most people would never willingly face. But what I really liked about this conversation was what Will has done with those experiences. Through his own gym, Valhalla Boxing, he now coaches others, passing on what boxing has taught him and using his own experiences to help other people develop inside and outside the ring. There’s a lot more to fighters than what you see when the bell rings. 🎙️ The full episode is OUT NOW on all available podcast platforms. #MentalHealth #ChildhoodTrauma #BareKnuckleBoxing #MensMentalHealth #TalkingTradesman
