You vs You: Lex Borrero on Winning the Inner War

from Up + Adam with Adam Montiel · host Adam Montiel

What happens when the man behind some of the biggest names in music, like Bad Bunny, J Balvin, and Justin Bieber, starts asking the real questions of himself? In this powerful episode of Up+Adam, Adam sits down with Lex Borrero, the visionary co-founder of NEON16 and host of the podcast You vs You. Together, they dive deep into the mindset behind meaningful success, the internal battles that continue even at the top, and why redefining hustle might just be the secret to true peace. Lex opens up about imposter syndrome, building a legacy in Latin music and culture, managing Will Smith during a comeback like no other, and how facing his own fears became the most important project of his life. We also talk about the creative discipline it takes to be vulnerable, how AI is reshaping the future of entertainment, and why every artist and every person has a version of themselves they’re still trying to outrun. Listen, share, and get inspired to face the person in the mirror.
