Hazel Gale | Overcoming Mental Chatter and Focusing on What Matters

Former professional kickboxer turned therapist, Hazel Gale, joins Srini Rao on The Unmistakable Creative to discuss her multifaceted career and the journey of self-discovery she experienced through competitive fighting. Hazel shares how her parents' expectations clashed with her desire to be a fighter, the challenges she faced as a woman in a male-dominated sport, and the mindset required to step into the ring. She also delves into the power of writing down thoughts to organize and find meaning, the importance of self-distancing in journaling, and the realization that true worth and victory come from authentic connection with others.
