Rob Ingram, Inside McDojo Life: Real Self-Defense vs. Rule-Based Fantasy

Founder of McDojo Life

3rd Degree Karate Black Belt

Co-founder of academysafe.org

This week, I had the incredible opportunity to sit down with Rob Ingram, known globally as McDojo Life. He has spent nearly three decades inside the martial arts world as a practitioner, instructor, and insider. With 28 years of experience across multiple disciplines, and a 3rd Degree Karate Black Belt, he has become one of the most visible voices exposing corruption, abuse, and fraud.

We spoke about an amazing range of topics, from Sarah Haspel’s brilliant invention - “The BESTIE” co-designed by a Rocket Scientist, safety from sexual predators for kids and females in martial arts, founding a USA wide database of convicted and fake “senseis”, Tim Kennedy the green beret turned UFC fighter to Pressure Testing martial arts for real world self defence!

Rob’s work shines a light on a hard truth: martial arts in the United States operates largely without regulation, allowing unqualified and dangerous individuals to assume positions of authority—often over children.

Beneath the glossy surface of martial arts the industry—especially in the United States—faces serious challenges: lack of regulation, abuse of authority, and even criminal behavior.

His response was not just criticism and calling them out, he took action. As co-founder of Academy Safe, Rob is on a mission to solve this- in his words:

“At Academy Safe, we are driven by a deep commitment to protecting martial artists from abuse, assault, and the inherent risks that exist in the absence of federal or state regulations. Founded to address the unsettling prevalence of sexual assault, abuse, and rape in martial arts, our mission is to create safe, supportive, and secure environments for students across the United States.

As a non-profit organization, our primary focus is the development of a national registry of martial arts academies. This registry will establish a new benchmark for safety, holding academies to strict standards designed to protect both students and staff.”

Equally important to Rob is the preservation of martial arts as something real and functional. He stresses that training must extend beyond tradition and competition rules into pressure-tested, real-world applicability. His message is consistent: if a system or weapon fails under stress, it fails—regardless of how good it looks in theory.

This is a necessary conversation about integrity, accountability, and what martial arts should stand for and I loved how authentic, real and passionate this conversation got!

This week, I had the incredible opportunity to sit down with Danny Green. The last interview to publish for 2025!

4 x World Champion Professional Boxer.

Founder of the Coward’s Punch Campaign.

Co-Founder of UBX

Danny rose from a working-class upbringing in Perth to become one of Australia’s most respected world boxing champions, representing his country at the Commonwealth Games and the Sydney Olympics before conquering the professional ranks on the global stage.

Along the way, Danny forged a reputation not just for power in the ring, but for relentless mental toughness, discipline, and resilience under pressure. From the brutal realities of dropping 3 weight classes and fighting through broken hands and cracked ribs, to navigating the difficult transition from amateur to professional boxing, his career became a long study in perseverance, self-belief, and adapting without losing your core identity.

Beyond competition, Danny reflects on the people who kept him grounded — His wife Nina- his family, lifelong friends, and a strong personal foundation that mattered more than titles. He contrasts the mindset of old-school fighters with modern athletes, sharing hard truths about toughness, accountability, and what separates those who last from those who fade.

Since retiring, Danny has continued to lead with purpose.

Through his Stop The Coward Punch campaign, he has worked to reduce senseless street violence, and through You Box Boxing & Strength Gyms, he is passing on hard-earned lessons to the next generation. Now focused on family, legacy, and impact beyond sport, Danny Green’s story is ultimately about authenticity, responsibility, and becoming harder to break — in the ring and in life.

This is a powerful show, with a powerful man, blending old school hard man mentality with the love and care for fellow humans that Danny now fights for. I know you’ll love listening to it as much as I did interviewing him. He is the only boxer from Australia to win four professional boxing world titles in three weight divisions. One of the highest profile athletes in the country, his devastating power and aggressive instincts earned him the well known moniker ‘The Green Machine’.

This week, I had the incredible opportunity to sit down with Rachel Godfrey- Blonde. Wild. Spiritual. Disruptive. Delusionally Optimistic.

Rachel is a former physiotherapist, professional trainer, and high-performance mentor with over 19 years of experience operating at the intersection of health, strength, and leadership.

She has built multiple performance consulting and digital businesses, advised senior executives and entrepreneurs, and had her work published globally in outlets including Oxygen Magazine, Shape, Cosmopolitan, Men’s Fitness, Entrepreneur.com, the Sydney Morning Herald, and The National UAE.

Known as the “A-Players Mentor” and co-director of Chase Life Consulting, Rachel has earned a reputation for working with people who operate at the top — and who refuse to be managed with soft answers.

At the core of Rachel’s work is a simple but confronting question: do you want kindness, or do you want nice?

Raised as a tomboy in Wales, forged through rugby, and shaped early in her career by treating severely injured soldiers in a military ICU, Rachel learned that real performance is built through emotional resilience, personal responsibility, and doing the minimum effective work required — not endless grind.

Her coaching blends scientific precision with deep identity and mindset work, challenging high-achieving women (especially over 35) to rebalance strength, femininity, and self-worth without abandoning ambition.

Today, Rachel mentors executives and entrepreneurs to align body, business, and identity through strength training, intelligent supplementation, and direct, no-nonsense coaching. Her work focuses on sustainable performance, fast belief-building wins, and teaching clients how to lead with both power and awareness. This episode is an unfiltered conversation about trauma, discipline, mindset, and what it actually takes to perform at a high level — without losing yourself in the process.

Firstly I would like to thank my friend and all around amazing human Judd Lienhard

for introducing me to LMNT while we were in Texas at his gym and podcast studio for

making this amazing episode happen. You can reach him at https://www.juddlienhard.com/

This week, I had the incredible opportunity to sit down with Luis Villaseñor- the co-founder of KetoGains and a driving force behind the formulation of LMNT and a Co- Founder.

In his words “After years of coaching people who were doing everything ‘right’ and still failing, I started asking a simple question: what’s the one variable we’re all missing? The answer wasn't exotic or complicated. It was basic physiology. Humans don’t run on willpower—they run on electrolytes. And when you fix the foundation, performance, clarity, and resilience follow. Good science isn’t proprietary knowledge; it’s practical common sense. That principle became the backbone of everything I create.””

Luis is a co-founder of LMNT, a hydration company built on evidence, not marketing mythology; the architect of the KetoGains Protocol; and a globally respected educator in metabolic health, training, and nutrition. Born and raised in México, he has dedicated his career to teaching people how to build stronger bodies through simple principles applied with discipline and consistency.

Luis has spent the last two decades at the intersection of nutrition, human performance, and real-world metabolic science. As the co-founder of KetoGains and a driving force behind the formulation of LMNT, he has guided tens of thousands of people—from everyday parents to elite athletes—through some of the most challenging physiological transitions of their lives. His influence helped reshape modern understanding of low-carb performance, electrolyte balance, and strength training, long before the wider industry caught up.

Firstly I would like to thank my friend and podcast sponsors Samantha and Shaun Sargent of STAIT FOR MEN for making this amazing episode happen.

This week, I had the incredible opportunity to sit down with Mark Direen,, a former soldier and special forces operator with the Australian SAS.- turned Author, Adventurer and Public speaker.

Mark’s journey from military service to adventuring, public speaking, and writing is nothing short of inspiring. Here are some key takeaways from our conversation that I think you’ll find both intriguing and motivating:

We discuss the evolution of purpose, identity, and connection. He reflects on the challenges of transition, the value of adventure and resilience, and the importance of controlling what you can in life. Mark offers practical advice on embracing new experiences, maintaining authenticity, and applying lessons from high-stress environments to everyday challenges, inspiring listeners to live more fully and intentionally.

He shares his journey of evolving purpose from military service to inspiring others through adventure and storytelling. We covered-

The Importance of Adventure, life experiences and challenges. Whether it’s climbing mountains or starting a new business, these adventures teach us resilience and positivity.

Transitioning from Military to Civilian Life: Mark opens up about the challenges of leaving the military and how he maintained his sense of purpose and identity.

Control the Controllables: A recurring theme in our discussion was the importance of controlling what you can in life. From military operations to everyday challenges, maintaining control over the small things can lead to greater success and safety.

Learning from Adversity: Mark shares how he turns difficult experiences into positive learning moments. His approach to debriefing himself and extracting lessons from tough times is something we can all apply to our own lives.

Getting Blown Up: Yes, you read that right. Mark recounts the harrowing experience of driving over an IED and how his training kicked in to keep him functioning in a life-threatening situation.

Travel Safety Tips: For those of you who love to travel, Mark offers practical advice on staying safe abroad, from getting travel insurance to learning self-defense and maintaining situational awareness.

Mark’s journey is a testament to the power of resilience, adventure, and living authentically and I hope you enjoy our chat as much as I did

Firstly I would like to thank my friend and podcast sponsor Shaun Sargent of STAIT FOR MEN for making this amazing episode happen.

This week, I had the honor of speaking with Mike Bates- Former MOD Covert Operations Leader, Commando & Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Black Belt turned solo ocean rower, community builder and entrepreneur.

There's no-one in the world with Mike's experience.

Mike brings exceptional credibility: he served two decades in the UK’s Royal Marines and the Ministry of Defence, rising to become a human-intelligence specialist and covert counter-terrorism operations leader ( AKA James Bond, and leading other Bond teams) and was the first officer in the MOD to pass all the required front-line counter-terror courses.

Following that elite career, he turned ultra-endurance athlete, completing the 3,000-mile solo row across the Atlantic in just 46 days 6 hours 10 minutes — the fastest Briton and first solo finisher of the Talisker Whisky Atlantic Challenge.

He now co-founds and leads the mission-driven community Unify Men (and its predecessor brand NXT45) focused on men’s health, connection, and transformation.

His core insight is powerful:The ultimate act of courage for a man is vulnerability.


Strength isn’t proven by suppressing emotion — it’s shown in connection, authenticity, and the bravery to face one’s own trauma. Mike’s lived experience (in covert ops, ultra-endurance rowing, and men’s transformation) underpins that insight. Through immersing men in nature, building safe circles, practicing martial arts (like Brazilian Jiu Jitsu), and emphasising fundamentals such as sleep and relinquishing ego, he provides a roadmap for modern masculinity.

Today, Mike’s work with Unify Men gives fathers and men a tribe, creates spaces where men can share truth without shame, and champions that the smartest fight is the one you don’t take. He emphasises: prioritise sleep, step outside (into nature), get comfortable with vulnerability, de-escalate ego, and start telling the truth about what you feel.

Bottom line:
This isn’t another “tough guy” message — it’s a call to men to live longer, love deeper, and lead better. Mike shows that real power comes when a man stops pretending…and starts connecting.

Today, Mike is a man on a mission to help others to become the best version of themselves. Drawing on his own unique, remarkable experiences he inspires and empowers others to live life without limits.

Firstly I would like to thank my friend and expert Alan Brosnan for making this amazing episode happen.

This week, I had the honor of speaking with René Ashford- a VICTOR of years of abuse, René’s mission and mandate is clear - to save lives! Repeated sexual assaults, multiple violent relationships and addictions to drugs and alcohol led René down a dark and lonely path which included multiple suicide attempts, the earliest when she was only 9 years old.

René is now the Australian Ambassador for the National Association of Adult Child Abuse Survivors (NAASCA) and a most amazing human who has gone on to become an inspiring Australian author and Public Speaker who has turned her harrowing experiences of child abuse into a powerful mission to educate and protect others.

René’s story is a powerful reminder that we can all play a part in protecting children and breaking the cycle of abuse. Her book, Battlescars are Beautiful: From Victim To Victory, is a must-read for anyone seeking to understand and combat child abuse.

She offers practical advice on child safety, including teaching body boundaries, using correct anatomical terms, and empowering children to say no.

René addresses breaking the silence around abuse, the importance of support networks, and her ongoing work helping others heal.

The episode is a moving call to action for education, transparency, and protecting vulnerable children.

We talked about the topics of

The Power of Transparency: Early Education on Body Safety: Recognising Abuse: Empowering Children: Breaking the Cycle: Practical Actions for Parents and Caregivers: Teaching Body Safety Early: Using Correct Terminology: Respect Consent: Vigilant Parenting.

We mentioned famous personalities in the s space such as former 22 SAS ( Special Air Service ) soldier Big Phil Campion,, Former West Australia Police Officer Kristi McPhee, and former guests on the show world record holder Brooke McIntosh, and Delta Force Commander and Author of “The Common Sense Way” Pete Blaber.

I hope you find this episode as enlightening and inspiring as I did. Let’s continue to have these important conversations and work together to create a safer world for our children.

In her words.. “Survivors are not defined by their experiences, nor are they limited by them. Anyone can rise beyond adversity with the right mindset, and it begins with a decision to do whatever it takes, for as long as it takes.”

Her journey can be discovered and understood in her incredibly powerful and inspiring book which has received rave reviews and is endorsed by mental health professionals, counsellors, war veterans, and law enforcement. René’s story is gripping, raw and profound – and yet another reminder of the power of the human spirit to overcome life’s greatest challenges.
