Ed Mylett is one of the world’s leading authorities on Leadership and Mental Toughness and I am honored to call him a good friend and mentor.

With the 3rd annual Mental Toughness Forum right around the corner I have been diving deep into my notes and thoughts around the topic and we wanted to to something special this week on the show and revisit one of the most impactful conversations I’ve ever had publicly- with my brother Ed on his show.

We talk about Mental Toughness, The BURN, and what it looks like to truly be an UNCOMMON leader. Although this originally aired almost 2 years ago, the principles and lessons we talk about are truly TIMELESS.

I hope each of YOU enjoy this conversation as much as I enjoying being a part of it.

This week on The Burn Podcast, I’m thrilled to sit down with, Alexander Martin, in a great conversation that dives into transitions, relationships, and player engagement. Alexander shares his journey of unexpected opportunities that led him to impact student athlete development at the University of Miami and his role in player engagement. We discuss our mutual relationship with Kaleb Thornhill and the importance of intentional connections in our careers, especially within football.

Alexander emphasizes the crucial role of preparing players for life beyond the field, and his insights into handling transitions and building strong bonds with players offer invaluable lessons. We explore how his dedication to showing up for others without expecting anything in return has left a lasting influence, and how this principle is essential in finding fulfillment and purpose in life.

We also touch on the cultural shift in the Miami Dolphins, driven by Coach McDaniel and the unique mix of rookie energy and veteran wisdom, highlighting the contributions of players like Alec Ingold to the team’s positive environment.

I’m incredibly grateful for Alexander’s openness and the wisdom he brings, and I'm confident you’ll find inspiration in his approach to life and career. Don’t miss this episode if you're looking to understand the power of serving others and the significance of relationships in achieving success.

We started the Mental Toughness Forum with a MISSION…To help someone like YOU…

-get off the sidelines in life

-understand YOUR strength comes from your struggle

-realize that YOUR greatest life lies on the other side of your ability to push THROUGH the tough times

-connect with individual stories that YOU might connect with more than my own

-build belief that they ARE worthy of everything good this life has to offer

and as we come up on our third year for this online event I’m reminded on all the incredible lifelong relationships I’ve developed just from having the courage to step out and do something UNCOMMON.

We are JUST scratching the surface and I wanted to reflect on a few of the great conversations I’ve had on The Burn Podcast over the last season and bring a few of those greatest moments forward in a special episode of the podcast today. Each of the guests in this episode will be speaking at this year’s Mental Toughness Forum and I can’t WAIT to see what they bring to their online stage.

Go watch this special episode on Youtube or wherever YOU get your podcasts.

This week on The Burn Podcast, I'm fired up to be chatting with Bryce Henson, the CEO of Fit Body Boot Camp. Bryce has an incredible story of turning personal challenges into fuel for success. From growing up in a tough environment to leading a major fitness franchise, Bryce really lays it all out.

In this episode, we talk about how fitness changed Bryce's life, his leadership principles, and why discipline means everything. Bryce opens up about his rough childhood, the struggles he faced, and how those experiences became his strength. For anyone aiming to push the boundaries and achieve big things, this conversation will hit home.

I believe that discipline and a strong mindset are CRITICAL to reaching your goals. Bryce is a perfect example of these qualities in action. His journey is a powerful reminder of what YOU can accomplish when you utilize INTENTIONAL focus and stack days.

This episode isn't just about finding your why and purpose—it's about stoking that inner fire to keep showing up, even when it's tough!

This week on The Burn Podcast we wanted to revisit an important and powerful conversation with my dear friend, Julius Thomas.

Julius is a former tight end for the Broncos, Jaguars, and Miami Dolphins. During his time in the league he was a monster on the field, putting up 40 touchdowns in his 7 year career. JT has always been a man of many talents, he actually was a basketball star at Portland State before taking his shot in the NFL. (Glad he did!)

He has now moved on to become a Cognitive Scientist and the founder of Optimal Performance System where he teaches top athletes and business professionals how to find THEIR optimal performance.

This episode is a very powerful one as we cover a broad range of topics but I can guarantee that YOU will be coming back to listen to this one over and over. Full episode now Live on Youtube and all podcast platforms.

I’m so grateful Jon continues to include me in one of the most IMPACTFUL events on spreading positivity.
