In this powerful episode of Resilience with Dawn Olivia, we sit down with Mark Connor—author, fighter, and founder of Boxers & Writers Magazine—to explore the depth of time, purpose, and the soul’s fight to stay grounded through life’s battles. Mark, affectionately known as the “Writing Boxer,” shares insights from his heartfelt book It’s About Time, a poetic and reflective work that navigates loss, resilience, and the art of becoming a “good soul” in a restless world.
We talk about writing as healing, boxing as metaphor, and how slowing down can actually move you forward. This conversation is for anyone seeking meaning in the chaos and the courage to press on with heart and humility.
