Sean Casey, Major League Mindset
This week on The Burn Podcast we’re bringing you an absolute MASTERCLASS in elite performance mindset. We’re talking the one, the only, the MAYOR, Sean Casey. 12 year MLB vet, 3-Time All Star, who finished with over 1,500 hits and a CAREER batting average of .302.This conversation truly packed full of nuggets and wisdom that helped Sean become the GREAT player he was, but many of these principles you can use in YOUR life, no matter what you’re doing.My absolute favorite part of our conversation is that Sean is VERY clear about how GREATNESS DOESN’T COME NATURALLY. He was surrounded by people who doubted him and had more “talent” than him. But when it came down to it he found HIS way to become one of the best in the worldThis one is ACTION packed!

Brain health, Career transitions, and playing in the NFL with Julius Thomas
Kicking off Season 5 of The Burn we couldn’t be more excited to be speaking with Julius Thomas today!Julius is a former tight end for the Broncos, Jaguars, and Miami Dolphins. During his time in the league he was a monster on the field, putting up 40 touchdowns in his 7 year career.JT has always been a man of many talents, he actually was a basketball star at Portland State before taking his shot in the NFL. (Glad he did!)Currently on track to get his doctorate in Psychology, Julius just so happens to be studying the impact of contact sports on brain health. Spending so much time playing in the NFL at a high level, our conversation naturally dives into the situation with Damar Hamlin and Julius offers a few unique points I hadn’t thought about in regards to the situation. (We also say a quick prayer for Damar.)This episode is a very powerful one as we cover a broad range of topics but I can guarantee that YOU will be coming back to listen to this one over and over.https://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 message Order my latest book The STANDARD: Winning at YOUR Highest Level: https://amzn.to/3DE1clY1st Phorm | The Foundation of High Performance Nutrition1stPhorm.com/bnewman Connect with me everywhere else: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/continuedfight Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Continuedfight/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/ContinuedFight Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-newman-b0b693
