Not a Damn Chance
Hosted by Phillip Frankland Lee & Neen Williams
🎙️ Special Guest: Justin Wren
What happens when a bullied kid, broken by trauma, addiction, and pain, finds himself fighting in the UFC — only to realize his biggest battle isn’t in the cage?
In this gripping episode, Justin Christopher Wren — former heavyweight fighter and the heart behind Fight For The Forgotten — joins Phillip and Neen for a raw, emotional, and deeply human conversation. Justin shares his harrowing journey from childhood torment and addiction to suicidal despair... and then, something unexplainable happened.
After crying out to the universe for meaning, Justin had a vision — a vivid, surreal calling that pulled him out of his darkest place and sent him halfway across the world. That vision? Help the forgotten people of the Congo. And he did.
Now known as “The Big Pygmy,” Justin tells the unbelievable true story of his time living among the Mbuti pygmy people — digging wells, securing land rights, and surviving malaria five times — all in service of a mission bigger than himself.
This isn’t just a story about fighting.
It’s about redemption. Purpose. And what happens when a man listens to something greater than fear.
