Building a Community of High Performers Through Coaching

What drives elite performers to show up and do the work— especially on the days they don’t feel like it? Performance coach Ben Newman calls it “the burn”: the deep, personal fuel that powers discipline, consistency, and next-level results. In this episode, Ben shares lessons from working with some of the biggest names in sports and business—from Nick Saban and Caitlin Clark to Fortune 500 executives. We unpack why the best don’t rely on motivation, the power of choosing standards over feelings, and how to tap into the fire that drives sustained success.
