In this episode of The Burn Podcast, Ben Newman delivers one of his most honest and direct messages yet—a challenge to stop living in the past and start owning what you can actually control: TODAY.
Using the mindset of Kobe Bryant and the response of Jalen Hurts after a Super Bowl loss, Ben breaks down what real mental toughness looks like. Kobe didn’t see failure as final—he saw it as feedback. Hurts didn’t let critics define him—he let preparation and discipline do the talking. The common thread? Champions don’t carry losses as identity. They carry them as fuel.
Ben ties it all back to the Prizefighter Day framework—winning the day through ownership of your actions, your energy, and your standards. Too many people say they want greatness, but their habits tell a different story. Too many are still dragging around last week’s mistakes, last year’s disappointments, or old labels that no longer serve them.
This episode isn’t about hype. It’s about accountability. It’s about alignment. It’s about deciding that your past will not dictate your future. If you’re ready to let go of what was and lock into what can be—this is your reminder to show up, reset, and win today. 🔥
