From athlete interviews to deep-dive conversations about competition, community, lifestyle, recovery, mental health, and the messy reality of being a grappler, this show brings honesty and humor straight from the mats to your ears.

This week on Chokeholds & Chill, we sit down with Lucy Berman — MMA fighter, content creator, and the force behind Combat Candy @combatcandies and Combat Crap @combatcrap supplements.
Lucy brings a mix of grit, humor, and honesty that’s hard to ignore. From stepping into the cage to building brands in the combat sports space, she’s doing it all — and doing it her way.
In this episode, we get into:
• Her journey into MMA and what keeps her fighting
• Building businesses while actively training and competing
• The reality of being a woman in combat sports
• Dealing with trolls, inappropriate comments, and online nonsense
• And how she stays grounded through it all
We also talk about Combat Candy — and yeah, we’ll say it now: Combat Candy is bomb af. Built for fighters who actually train, it’s one of those products that just makes sense when you’re in this life.
This conversation is real, unfiltered, and full of the kind of perspective that only comes from someone living it every day.
