Tiffanee Cook has been punched in the face more times than most - literally. A former boxer with 14 fights and three state titles, she knows resilience isn’t theory, it’s lived experience - and she’s here to show what it really takes to rise again.
But she’s also learned it’s rarely the knockout blows that undo us – it’s the everyday battles we avoid, the discomforts we gloss over, and the stories we tell ourselves to look strong. Tiff calls out the crap on performative toughness and the obsession with ‘hard’ the world loves to sell and shows what real strength looks like when the gloves come off.
Drawing on elite sport, business, high-performance coaching, and her own story of trauma, Tiff blends scars, smarts, and humour in equal measure. And yes, she was the muse for Mark Seymour’s The Boxer album - proof her impact can move a songwriter, a stage, and a room full of people.
Passionate, inspiring and courageous! We had Tiff speak at our Girls With Hammers conference in 2023, and what a powerhouse! Her story screams vulnerability and the willingness to take risks in order to grow, no matter how much it hurts. The audience were on the edge of their seats the whole time and didn't want it to end. I highly recommend Tiff as a guest speaker or keynote, particularly if you want to inspire your audience to find the courage to 'have a crack'.
Last night this pocket rocket Tiffanee Cook was absolutely amazing as our MC. The night went off without a hitch and everyone had an absolute ball. Tiff as I said, the way you present and draw out the true story was sensational, all along with the touch of humour. I look forward to our continued friendship and the opportunities moving forward. If anyone is seeking an MC with a difference, look no further, here is one of the best.
You did a great job for us and I am really grateful. I had one of the audience members comment on how powerful it was to have a strong, confident woman interviewing two men who engage in such a dangerous sport, who because of the way you interviewed them spoke honestly about their vulnerability, feelings & care for each other. It really made an impact.
