Self Belief, Dealing with Disappointment & Breaking Barries in Woman's Sport - Kaye Scott - EP25

Geoff sits down with world title–winning and commonwealth games medal winning boxer Kaye Scott — known in the boxing world as “The Glamour” — for a conversation that goes far beyond the ring.

Kaye shares how she fell into boxing at 19, walking into a PCYC gym where she was the only woman and was largely ignored for months… yet kept showing up anyway. We unpack what it takes to stay the course when you feel out of place, and how that relentless consistency shaped her mindset, identity, and career.

Kaye also opens up about a defining moment in women’s sport: female boxing was once illegal in NSW, and she became the first legally sanctioned female bout in the state — a pivotal moment in the fight for opportunity and recognition.

We talk about:

• The mindset shift that helped her become a world champion (and finally allow herself to feel proud)
• Why being kinder to yourself improves performance
• The “bittersweet” reality of silver medals and chasing the top spot for years
• Losing her Olympic dream after weight divisions changed, and what it forced her to face
• Identity beyond sport — who are you when the thing you do gets taken away?
• The reality of pay gaps in boxing, and why many champions still work “normal jobs”
• OnlyFans sponsorship: judgement, autonomy, and using platforms as tools
• Her definition of success: financial stability, health, purpose, relationships, and impact

If you’ve ever struggled with setbacks, perfectionism, or detaching from outcomes — this episode will hit.
