    How Champions Turn Failure Into Fuel

    What if the biggest thing holding YOU back isn't what happened in YOUR past, but the fact that YOU keep allowing it to control YOUR present?

    In this episode of The Burn Podcast, Ben Newman delivers a powerful message about accountability, mental toughness, and the decision to stop letting yesterday determine what YOU are capable of achieving tomorrow.

    Drawing lessons from the legendary mindset of Kobe Bryant and the resilience of Jalen Hurts following a Super Bowl loss, Ben explores what separates champions from those who allow setbacks to define them. For the greatest competitors, failure isn't a permanent label. It's an opportunity to learn, sharpen their approach, and return with an even greater commitment to the work.

    But this conversation goes far beyond sports.

    Ben challenges YOU to take an honest look at the standards YOU live by, the habits YOU repeat, and the energy YOU bring into each day. Through his **Prizefighter Day** framework, he explains why lasting success isn't built by obsessing over yesterday's mistakes or worrying about tomorrow's outcomes. It's built through intentional decisions, personal accountability, and the discipline to execute TODAY.

    Whether YOU'RE carrying the weight of a past failure, struggling to regain momentum, or pursuing a level of success YOU have yet to achieve, this episode is a reminder that YOUR next chapter will not be determined by what happened to YOU. It will be determined by what YOU choose to do next.

    The past has already happened. The future hasn't been written. But TODAY is still YOURS to win.

    Master Your Mind, Control the Conversation | Chris Voss on Negotiation, Discipline & Mental Strength

    In this episode of The Burn Podcast, Ben Newman sits down with legendary former FBI hostage negotiator Chris Voss for a powerful conversation about pressure, mental toughness, leadership, and the negotiation that impacts your life more than any other—the negotiation with yourself.

    Known worldwide for his bestselling book Never Split the Difference, Chris shares the mindset, preparation, and emotional discipline required to perform in the highest-pressure situations imaginable. From international hostage negotiations to coaching elite leaders, entrepreneurs, and performers, Chris explains why success under pressure always comes back to preparation, emotional control, and mastering your internal dialogue.

    Ben and Chris dive deep into the importance of process over emotion, why most people mentally defeat themselves before the moment even begins, and how gratitude can instantly shift your mindset when pressure hits. Chris also shares why the greatest performers rehearse success before the moment arrives—and why elite performers never stop refining their process after they win.

    This episode is packed with practical lessons for leaders, athletes, coaches, entrepreneurs, and anyone looking to become mentally stronger in high-stakes moments.

    The Unseen Work Behind Elite Performance | Charles Stull on What Makes Champions Great

    In this episode of The Burn Podcast, Ben Newman sits down with Charles Stull, Senior Director of Performance Nutrition at the UFC Performance Institute, for a fascinating look behind the scenes at what it actually takes to help some of the world’s highest-performing combat athletes prepare, recover, and compete at their best.

    Charles shares his journey from Division I swimming and competitive Muay Thai to becoming a sports dietitian and eventually joining the UFC Performance Institute. What began as a two-dietitian operation has grown into a global performance nutrition team supporting UFC athletes throughout their preparation, fight week, recovery, and everything in between.

    Ben and Charles dive deep into the details most fans never see. Charles breaks down the science behind weight cutting, dehydration, rehydration, nutrition, recovery, and how fighters can strategically rebuild their bodies between stepping on the scale and stepping into the Octagon. It’s an incredible look at how much precision goes into the moments before the bright lights ever turn on.

    But the lessons go far beyond fighting.

    Charles explains that the highest performers don't simply have goals and purpose—they build a “moat” around themselves. They protect their energy, create the right environment, surround themselves with people who support their pursuit, pay attention to what they consume, and eliminate the distractions that slowly pull them away from their STANDARD. Those seemingly small decisions are what allow great performers not only to reach the top, but to stay there.

    Charles also opens up about his own BURN and the influence of his mother, who challenged him from an early age to discover his limits. That mindset led him toward difficult pursuits throughout his life—from swimming to Muay Thai to one of the most demanding areas of performance nutrition—because he continually chose the harder path as a way to strengthen his mind, body, and spirit.

    This conversation is a reminder that elite performance isn't built only in the moments everyone sees. It’s built through preparation, discipline, recovery, environment, and an obsession with the little things.

    Whatever YOUR arena is, ask YOURSELF: Are YOU paying enough attention to the details that could take YOUR performance to another level?

    Your Legacy Is Being Built Today | Bryan “Juice” Edwards

    What would change if YOU stopped treating tomorrow like it was guaranteed?

    In this throwback episode of The Burn Podcast, Ben Newman sits down with Bryan “Juice” Edwards, co-founder of Hughes-Edwards Builders, for a conversation about faith, adversity, personal growth, and learning to appreciate the opportunity hidden inside every single day.

    Bryan’s energy and positivity are contagious, but there’s a deeper story behind the way he chooses to live. From the example set by his parents and the foundation of his faith to surviving a plane crash that changed his perspective on life, Bryan has learned that today is far too valuable to waste.

    That mindset has pushed him to keep challenging himself long after he found success.

    Ben and Bryan unpack what happened when Bryan became more coachable, started intentionally putting himself in uncomfortable situations, and committed to raising the standard in his health, marriage, business, and leadership. His transformation is a reminder that growth doesn't happen because YOU know what needs to change. It happens when YOU finally decide to do something about it.

    And that decision doesn't have to wait until tomorrow.

    Legacy isn't only about what people remember when you're gone. It's being created through the way YOU love, serve, lead, encourage, and show up for the people around YOU today.

    **YOU don't get today back. Make sure the way YOU live it reflects what matters most.**

    You Have to Earn the Life You Want | Sal Frisella & Will Compton

    What are YOU willing to build before anyone else believes it's going to work?

    In this throwback episode of The Burn Podcast, Ben Newman sits down with Sal Frisella and Will Compton for a raw conversation about betting on yourself, doing the work before the results arrive, and having the courage to pursue something when there are absolutely no guarantees.

    Will shares the journey behind building Bussin' With The Boys—from taking a chance on an idea and a broken-down bus to creating one of the biggest platforms in sports media. Sal opens up about facing adversity, losing things he once allowed to define him, and rebuilding his life around a deeper sense of purpose.

    Different journeys. Same lesson.

    The life YOU want isn't earned when everything finally works out. It's earned during the seasons when nobody can see what YOU see—when the results aren't there, the recognition hasn't arrived, and YOU still choose to show up.

    Ben, Sal, and Will dive into the power of acting as if, why action often has to come before belief, and how discipline, relationships, mentorship, and service become more important as success grows.

    Because eventually, success becomes about more than what YOU can accomplish.

    It's about who YOU become.
    It's about who YOU bring with you.
    And it's about the impact YOU leave behind.

    This conversation is a reminder that sometimes YOU have to jump when you can afford to drown, trust the work, and become the person capable of carrying the opportunity you're asking for.

    Don't wait for the results to give YOU permission to believe. Do the work until the results have no choice but to follow.

    The Details That Create Champions | Coach Chris Klieman on Culture, Discipline & Leadership

    In this throwback episode of The Burn Podcast, Ben Newman sits down with Coach Chris Klieman for a powerful conversation about what separates teams that simply have talent from teams that consistently WIN.

    For Coach Klieman, championship culture isn't created by one speech, one game, or one great season. It's built every single day through preparation, discipline, belief, accountability, and an obsession with the details most people are willing to overlook.

    Coach Klieman shares lessons from leading championship programs and explains why the strongest teams eventually become player-led. Ben and Coach also unpack what leadership looks like when adversity hits, why integrity can never be sacrificed for results, and the importance of showing up with the same standard whether you're winning or losing.

    Because eventually, pressure reveals what YOUR culture is really made of.

    This conversation goes far beyond football. Whether you're leading athletes, employees, a business, or YOUR family, the challenge is the same: Are YOU willing to consistently live the standard you're asking others to follow?

    The smallest details might not feel important today—but stacked over time, they can become YOUR greatest competitive advantage.

    Winning isn't created in the biggest moments. It's built in the details long before those moments ever arrive.

    The Standard Behind Greatness | Dr. Lorenzo Guess on Developing Champions

    Some conversations deserve to be heard again.

    In this throwback episode of The Burn Podcast, Ben Newman sits down with longtime friend and fellow Spartan Dr. Lorenzo Guess for a conversation about what it REALLY takes to develop greatness.

    Dr. Guess has spent his career around high-level athletes and championship programs, but his approach has never been about talent alone. It's about developing the PERSON behind the athlete—building discipline, demanding accountability, paying attention to the details, and creating standards that prepare young men for far more than what happens on the court or field.

    He also shares the experiences that built his own Burn—from growing up in a single-parent home with a desire to create a different future, to completing his doctorate after his daughter challenged him to finish what he started.

    Ben and Dr. Guess dive into championship culture at Michigan State, lessons from working alongside Tom Izzo, the responsibility coaches have to the people they lead, and why even the most talented individuals still need to be held accountable to the standard.

    Years after this conversation was originally recorded, the message remains the same:

    Talent can open the door. But discipline, accountability, consistency, and character determine what YOU do once you're there.

    Health Is the Foundation of Greatness — Travin & Britni Gray on Elite Performance

    In this throwback episode of The Burn Podcast, Ben Newman sits down with Travin and Britni Gray of REVV Health for a powerful conversation about why YOUR health can’t be something you plan to deal with later.

    After experiencing their own frustrating health challenges and struggling to find answers, Travin and Britni turned those experiences into a mission to help others become stronger advocates for their health. They share how discipline, preventative care, understanding YOUR body, and making intentional lifestyle choices can completely change the way you feel, perform, and live.

    Ben also opens up about why health has become such an important part of his own pursuit of elite performance. The conversation challenges us to stop waiting until something goes wrong and start paying attention to the details today—because success in business means very little if you sacrifice YOUR health along the way.

    This episode is a reminder that elite performance isn't just about how hard you work. It's about having the discipline to take care of yourself, build habits that last, and make decisions today that give you the opportunity to be there for the people who matter most tomorrow.

    YOUR health is part of YOUR legacy. Don't wait until it's too late to start treating it that way.

    Take Action. Build Your Legacy. | Mental Toughness Academy Week 6

    In Week 6, the final episode of this special six-part Mental Toughness Academy series on The Burn Podcast, Ben Newman brings every lesson together and challenges you to do the one thing that separates champions from everyone else: take action.

    Over the last six weeks, you've discovered your Burn, strengthened your belief, learned to reframe adversity, built your Prize Fighter Day, established daily disciplines, and created a Legacy Statement. Now it's time to eliminate the limiting beliefs that hold you back, build an environment that supports your growth, and commit to living with intention every single day. Because mental toughness isn't measured by what you know—it's measured by what you choose to do.

    In this final session, Ben walks you through your Action Plan, challenges you to identify what's been preventing you from reaching your highest level, and explains why your environment, habits, and daily choices ultimately determine your legacy. You'll also complete your post-assessment and discover why simply building the right mental framework has already elevated your mental toughness—and why the next level now depends entirely on your willingness to act.

    Most people wait for confidence before they take action.

    Champions take action first—and confidence follows.

    This series may be coming to an end, but your journey is just beginning. The foundation has been built. Now it's your turn to keep stacking days, continue investing in yourself, and live the legacy you're committed to creating.

    Because it's not how long you live... it's how you choose to live your life.

    The Daily Habits of High Performers | Mental Toughness Academy Week 5

    In Week 5 of this special six-part Mental Toughness Academy series on The Burn Podcast, Ben Newman brings everything together by introducing two of the most impactful tools for creating lasting success: The Prizefighter Day Morning and Your Legacy Statement.

    After discovering your Burn, strengthening your belief, learning to reframe adversity, and building your Prize Fighter Day, it's time to create the daily routines and environment that make mental toughness a way of life. Ben explains why the first moments of your morning determine how you attack the rest of your day, how small disciplines compound into extraordinary results, and why the next level of your success is often just a matter of reclaiming your time.

    You'll also learn how to build a Legacy Statement that brings together everything you've developed throughout the Mental Toughness Academy—your Burn, vision, I Am Statements, Prize Fighter Day, and personal standards—into one powerful daily reminder of who you're becoming. Ben also challenges you to identify the limiting beliefs, distractions, and environments that have been holding you back so you can intentionally create one that fuels continual peak performance.

    This week isn't about learning something new. It's about putting every lesson into practice so your mindset, habits, and environment work together every single day.

    Because your legacy isn't created someday.

    It's built by the choices you make today.

    The Daily System That Creates Champions | Mental Toughness Academy Week 4

    In Week 4 of this special six-part Mental Toughness Academy series on The Burn Podcast, Ben Newman introduces the most impactful performance tool he's taught for more than 16 years: The Prizefighter Day.

    Elite performance isn't built on motivation—it's built on intentional daily disciplines. In this session, Ben reveals the same proven system used with championship teams, Fortune 500 leaders, and top performers to create consistency, accountability, and continual peak performance. You'll learn why success isn't determined by occasional great moments, but by the decisions and choices you make every single day.

    Drawing on stories from coaching at Alabama under Coach Nick Saban, working with elite business leaders, and developing champions across sports and business, Ben explains how your Burn and your Prize Fighter Day work together to create a life of sustained excellence. You'll discover how to reverse-engineer your greatest successes, identify the daily disciplines that truly move the needle, and build a blueprint for winning personally, professionally, and through service to others.

    This week also challenges the belief that balance doesn't exist. Instead, Ben shows you how intentional discipline across every area of your life allows you to perform at your highest level without sacrificing what matters most.

    Inside this session, you'll build your own Prize Fighter Day, complete a seven-day performance review, and create a daily system that helps you stack winning days—one decision at a time.

    Because champions don't hope for great days.

    They design them.
