Matthew Layman

Today I’m with my new friend, Mike Lee , who I met through the Austin padel tennis 🎾 community . We became instant friends because we’re both incredibly competitive on the court.

Mike’s story is remarkable. He’s a former world-ranked professional boxer 🥊 with a 21–1 record, a Notre Dame alum 🍀, and one of the top super middleweight contenders of his era. But just as he was chasing a world title, an autoimmune diagnosis forced him out of the ring.

At the same time, his sister Angie was battling debilitating period pain and anxiety. Together, they turned those personal challenges into a mission by creating SOUL CBD—a wellness brand dedicated to helping people recover, relax, and feel their best. 🍬

I’m excited to spend time with a true champion—inside and outside the ring... and now on the padel court. And yes, I’m a big fan of Get Souls “Out of Office” drinks after a long match. Go check them out at .soul and in fact .39 needs to be carrying their drinks at their clubs same with it’s a great way to relax after a long match. ✨🧘🏼‍♂️💤
