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.

You’ll get messages from:

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.

Bryce opens up about his rough childhood, the struggles he faced, and how those experiences became his strength.

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 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.

Ever wondered what it takes to succeed under the legendary Coach Nick Saban? Hear it firsthand from former Michigan State quarterback Bill Burke as he recounts his college football journey and the transformative leadership style of Saban. Burke's insights provide a rare glimpse into the rigor, discipline, and CEO-like approach that revitalized Michigan State's program. From Burke's on-field experiences to his transition into mentorship, uncover how the essence of "the burn" ignited his performance and shaped his life beyond football.

Athletes often face an emotional rollercoaster when their careers end, grappling with a loss of identity and purpose. We tackle these challenges head-on, offering tools and wisdom encapsulated in the acronym FIRE—fierce self-knowledge, inspired intention, relentless action, and epic focus. Burke shares poignant moments under Saban's leadership, including a tense team meeting that exemplifies the coach's unwavering commitment to discipline. Learn how these principles can light up YOUR  journey both on and off the field.

This week on The Burn Podcast we had to go back and revisit a conversation with my guy Michael Porter Jr. from the Denver Nuggets. Amid their 24' season playoff run there are so many things coming to fruition that we talked about in this conversation from Season 4 of the show.

I first met Michael when he was at the University of Missouri when I was working with the basketball team. We hit it off and stayed in contact as he battled adversity and eventually got drafted into the NBA.

We talk about some funny memories but we also break down a few critical moments when Michael was able to use some mental training tools to take his game to the next level.

Check out the full episode on Youtube and all podcast platforms.

Do you consider yourself "detail oriented?"

Over the years we've had many clients who either claim to be or claim NOT to be...

I will tell you that over the last 20+ years the highest achieving humans I've had the blessing to know and work with live in one of those camps... (I talk about which one in the podcast)

Having mentors and building systems for accountability in your life truly is one of the the secrets to going after all those big goals on your vision plan. In this week's episode I talk about a few of mine and share a story I've never shared before on the show about a trip that changed my life forever...

Thank YOU Ed Mylett for being the truest definition of what a friend and mentor looks like.
