In this special episode, we ignite a fiery reflection on the indelible legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.—a fearless American Baptist minister, activist, and political visionary who reshaped the moral fabric of our nation. From 1955 to his untimely assassination in 1968, Dr. King stood on the front lines of justice, wielding nonviolent resistance as his weapon against the brutality of Jim Crow laws and systemic oppression.
Dr. King’s “I Have a Dream” speech shook the very foundation of inequality, inspiring millions to believe in a future of hope and unity. But his teachings went beyond grand stages—they cut to the core of human dignity and the fight for equality. In this episode, we reflect on his timeless words and dig into an unforgettable moment: Coach Nick Saban’s poignant reference to Dr. King’s “Sweeper Speech,” a powerful reminder that greatness is found in how we approach every task, no matter how small.
This episode confronts the harsh reality of hatred that still plagues our world today. It’s a raw and urgent call to action—a reminder that love, respect, and unity start in our homes and in our hearts. Hatred is not born; it is taught. And we hold the responsibility to unteach it.
Join us as we explore the lessons of Dr. King—not just as history, but as a rallying cry to keep pushing forward. The work isn’t finished. His dream lives on, and it’s up to all of us to keep the fire burning.

What happens when the words you've been longing to hear your entire life lose their power? Join us as we embark on a deeply personal exploration of seeking validation, only to find true strength within ourselves. I share the profound moment at my father's deathbed when his long-awaited words of pride surprisingly felt hollow. It was my mother, battling amyloidosis with grace and determination, who truly shaped my journey with her lessons on living passionately and with purpose. Her influence led me to the realization that true resilience stems not from the approval of others but from embracing our authentic passions.

In this episode, we take you through a journey of transformation, drawing inspiration from an encounter with Dr. Silva. Through the metaphor of opening and locking gates, we uncover how visualization and self-discipline can break personal barriers and lead to mental freedom. We discuss the importance of surrounding ourselves with positive influences and tapping into the inner strength that our loved ones instilled in us. This conversation is an invitation to reassess your disciplines and approach life with a new mindset, leaving a lasting impact through a legacy driven by your true source of strength.

From Life in Prison to a Life of Purpose.

In this episode of The Burn, we are joined by Alex Donnolo, a dynamic entrepreneur, investor, coach, speaker, and mental health advocate. At the age of 16, Alex and his best friend were wrongfully convicted of a heinous crime and sentenced to prison. Tragically, only Alex survived the ordeal. After being released in 2011, he became determined to lead a life of purpose and impact.

Alex reflects on the challenges he faced growing up, including being raised by separated parents, dealing with substance abuse, skipping school, and the traumatic day he and his best friend were arrested. He shares how losing his friend was a pivotal moment, driving him to turn his life around and strive for success. Now, his BURN is to inspire others who have faced similar challenges, particularly those who have been wrongfully convicted, offering them hope and encouragement through his story of resilience and redemption.

Remember: You develop your greatest strengths during times of adversity. RISE UP. OWN IT. GROW. We are never finished. - Ben Newman
