Unrequired Work, Unshakeable Belief | The Burn That Makes You Unstoppable

In this inspiring compilation of The Burn Podcast, Ben Newman brings together two incredible stories of drive, purpose, and the relentless pursuit of growth — one from the world of wellness, the other from the hardwood.First, Lexi Johnson, founder of Lexi J Wellness, shares how she turned a global shutdown into an opportunity to serve others. What started as workouts in her unfinished basement during the pandemic became a thriving community that empowers thousands of women to take control of their health and mindset. Lexi opens up about the powerful letter she wrote to her father that changed his life — and how that moment became the heartbeat of her mission. From small-town roots to nationwide impact, her story is proof that when your burn comes from a place of love and purpose, there’s no limit to what you can build.Then, Drew Hanlen, one of the most respected basketball trainers in the game, joins Ben to talk about mastering the mental side of success. Having coached NBA stars like Jayson Tatum, Joel Embiid, and Bradley Beal, Drew reveals what separates the good from the great — a commitment to the unrequired work that others avoid. He also shares lessons from his book Stop Bullshitting Yourself, a wake-up call to anyone standing in their own way. Through his words, Drew reminds us that greatness isn’t about talent — it’s about consistency, accountability, and a refusal to settle.Together, Lexi and Drew embody what The Burn is all about — the inner fire that fuels your discipline, the courage to believe before results appear, and the resilience to keep pushing when comfort calls.************************************Learn about upcoming events and coaching: https://www.workwithbnc.comGet Ben’s latest book The STANDARD:  https://amzn.to/3DE1clY1stWork directly with Ben: https://www.bennewmancoaching.comConnect with Ben Newman:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/continuedfightFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/Continuedfight/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ContinuedFightLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-newman-b0b693Qlogix: www.Q-logix.com/benhttps://www.bennewmancoaching.com************************************Learn about our Upcoming events and programs:https://www.workwithbnc.comLet’s work TOGETHER https://www.bennewmancoaching.comLet's work together to write YOUR next book- BNC PublishingSend us a messageOrder my latest book The STANDARD: Winning at YOUR Highest Level: https://amzn.to/3DE1clY1st Phorm | The Foundation of High Performance Nutrition1stPhorm.com/bnewmanConnect with me everywhere else:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/continuedfightFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/Continuedfight/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ContinuedFightLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-newman-b0b693
