Description
This podcast is one of the tools I will be using to document my journey of going from working 60-70 hours a week doing something I didn’t love to try to maintain a lifestyle that was unhealthy and unhappy, to giving that all up moving back to my hometown to work on my passion of martial arts. Follow me on my journey from unhappy worker to super happy fighter and everything in between.

So we did it everyone. We went from being a 60+hour a week employee doing something I hated and was depressed. To becoming a member of a martial arts team and winning my MMA debut. I can’t begin to explain how crazy it feels. Here’s a podcast trying to explain how it went. Thank you all so much for the support.
We had a super crazy cool thing happen where a supporter of the podcast donated money in order for me to be able to give away tickets to my upcoming MMA debut on March 21st. I never expected anything like this to happen so tune into the podcast to find out how to win your tickets to WFC 101!
On today’s episode I talk about using social media as a tool. I also talk about how your dreams do not have to stay dreams. The thing about actually dreaming when you’re asleep, is that those dreams aren’t real. A dream, as in a goal you wish to accomplish, can be real. Even if you feel like it’s damn near impossible you can and should do it and not give up. One day you’ll look in the mirror and say holy shit, I did it.
FIGHT ANNOUNCEMENT, my most hype episode EVER, enough said! Featuring my coach Zack Flash Mathiew.
On today’s episode I talk about what it was like to shave my chest for the first time, how I am in the best shape of my life, that I truly feel as though I am becoming a martial artist, but it is not easy. I am still having to overcome huge obstacles in life to continue chasing my dream of stepping in the cage. It will always be hard to get where you want to be, where you were meant to be. Take the road less traveled and step outside your comfort zone. Thank you so much for listening and please stay tuned.
On today’s episode of the podcast we have guest Gabe Clark. Gabe is a good friend of mine, one of my main training partners and just an awesome person. He has helped me in a major way on this martial arts journey. He is also chasing his dream of being the best MMA fighter on the planet. Here are some links to some videos we mention on the podcast. https://youtu.be/9hx-OAQMXg4 Younggg_papiii on Instagram Gabe Clark on FB
Today’s episode is probably my best solo episode yet. I talk about how the move is going, my goals, but most importantly I talk about how people who did not figure out what their passion is try to discourage you or belittle your purpose in life. Please give it a listen and let me know what you think. Don’t let others discourage you no matter what your passion is in this life. If you’re meant to do that, it will be. Thank you all I’ll see you soon
I had an idea to record a segment just before going to watch the fight and just after the fights. I thought it would be fun to see how confident I was in my prediction before the fights played out and how cocky I became if I was right or wrong. It was a lot of fun and I hope you enjoy the podcast. Much love
Today’s episode I talk about how well the holidays and training are going. I talk about how we are building a podcast studio at Universal Martial Arts on Ridge Rd. in Lafayette LA, and even more big news coming soon. So thank you so much for listening, stay tuned I promise you won’t regret it!
Today’s episode is definitely one of the best episodes of the StephenHaze Podcast simply because my guest has traveled all over the world, trained martial arts, and is the 5th ranked amateur MMA fighter out of Louisiana. He is an incredibly interesting person and I enjoyed talking to him immensely. If you’re interested in training with us or doing any PT work contact me and we can make it happen. Thank you as always I love you all and I’ll see you soon.
On today’s episode I realize I have been rationalizing my dream. Saying that “I just want a job in martial arts”. Well, having worked cage side at Gulf Coast Mixed Martial Arts this weekend reminded me exactly what started this whole podcast movement in the first place. I want to fight PERIOD. I don’t just want a career in mma. I want to FIGHT mma and this weekend was a great reawakening of that goal. I am thankful for James Sharp who allowed me the opportunity to work the fights and get my gumption back. LETS DO THIS.
On today’s episode I have professional MMA fighter Zack “Flash” Mathiew. Zack has been instrumental in my transition into martial arts. He’s been a mentor to me and now my trainer. You can find him on social media @FlashMMA_ Instagram, Zack Mathiew on Facebook. This podcast is so much fun. He talks about his upbringing and his path into martial arts. If you’re looking to learn martial arts contact him or contact me and I’ll contact him.

I apologize if this is a bit of a cliffhanger episode, but I didn’t want to just stop uploading all together while I handle business to get back to the podcast. I love you all and I’ll be back real soon :).
Today’s episode I talk about how I’m just waiting on some finances to line up so I can make the big leap we’ve been talking about now for so long. I’m starting to feel better so we can get this podcast back on track and my ass back in shape!
Mental health is a struggle for so many. I’d be willing to bet more people struggle with it than people who don’t. I’ve been fraught with anxiety, pessimism, overall negativity and I’m scratching and clawing to pick myself up and get back on track. Thank you all for listening. We will come back strong.
