    Jason Redman, Retired Navy SEAL, Speaker, Author

    On this episode of The Burn Podcast, I have the honor of having Jason Redman, a decorated Navy SEAL who's faced down some of the most intense challenges a person can go through. We're unpacking the principles of resilience, the power of the "overcome mindset," and how preparation, awareness, and action can determine how we navigate through life's most INTENSE ambushes.
    I believe that the fuel to succeed BURNS within us all, and my conversation with Jason is a testament to what it looks like when someone is connected to that BURN at the deepest possible level. The experiences shared here are not just about war stories – they touch on the universal struggles that call for a RELENTLESS will to push forward.
    In this episode, you're going to be absolutely moved by a story of determination that transcends the battlefield. For anyone seeking to rise above adversity, Jason's insights offer a blueprint for UNCOMMON resilience. .

    Ryan Pineda: How to develop discipline, go after big goals, and treat your people right.

    In this episode we give you a special conversation I had with Ryan Pineda on his podcast. I made a joke about turning it into a special episode of The Burn, so we did just that.

    In this conversation we get into the nitty gritty on what it looks like to truly build discipline, grow multiple businesses, putting family first, and breaking down the real actions of high performers.

    Full video version of the podcast is also live on Youtube.

    Thanks for having me on the show Ryan!

    Phil Heath: Living in the details, Breaking Olympia, and a connection to a rare disease

    Phil Heath: Living in the details, Breaking Olympia, and a connection to a rare disease

    Join us as we sit down with Phil Heath, a man whose response was to become a seven-time Mr. Olympia champion, earning him the name "The Gift." Our conversation traverses from his basketball beginnings to the meticulous preparation that carved his place in bodybuilding history. Phil's candor about his high school coach's challenge that sparked his competitive fire serves as a reminder that sometimes our greatest moments of growth are born from adversity.

    Exposing the raw vulnerability required of champions, this episode peels back the layers on the psyche of a bodybuilder. You’ll hear how Phil's journey through the Mr. Olympia competition was as much about sculpting his mental resilience as it was about perfecting his physique. He shares how confronting inner demons and adopting an unrelentingly detailed focus can have transformative effects that reach well beyond the gym. We also delve into the power of a strong support system, as Phil recounts the importance of his own, highlighting how vital it is in navigating the treacherous path towards success.
