About this listen

In this powerful episode, we sit down with Matt Sen, a former professional boxer whose life story is nothing short of extraordinary. Growing up in a single-parent household, Matt faced hunger, neglect, and trauma at an early age. At just 15, his world was turned upside down when his mother was caught smuggling drugs and sent to prison — leaving him to survive alone.


With no guidance, Matt was pulled into gang life, facing the brutal realities of drug dealing, violence, stabbings, and even being shot at. But his story didn’t end there. Against all odds, Matt rebuilt his life, creating businesses from scratch, battling bankruptcy, and finally stepping back into the ring to chase the dream he left behind as a teenager.


This is the raw, unfiltered story of resilience, redemption, and the fight of a lifetime — from the streets to the spotlight of Wembley Stadium.


👉 If you’re looking for real stories about mental health, survival, gangs, and second chances, this episode is for you.
