Justin “The Big Pygmy” Wren Biography

Justin Wren was mercilessly bullied as a child, and he responded by transforming himself into a champion MMA fighter. Yet despite his success, he quietly questioned the significance of his own athletic accomplishments. Each time his hand was raised in victory he thought, “Is this it? Is this as good as it gets?” As he fought his way to the top and battled never-ending injuries that accompany the profession, he slid into pain-killer addiction, battled depression and attempted suicide. He was a champion on the outside, but broken within.

It wasn’t until a chance collection of circumstances led Wren to one of the most remote places on earth, to live in the rainforest among the Pygmy people, some of the most impoverished and marginalized people on the planet, that he found his true purpose – helping others.

From that experience, ‘The Big Pygmy’ returned to the ring with purpose, founding the non-profit Fight For The Forgotten (FFTF) along the way. Since 2013, FFTF has provided more than 52,000 indigenous people with access to clean drinking water, replanted thousands of trees, acquired more than 3,000 acres of land in the name of the tribe and helped 1,800 people out of slavery and into freedom. Current projects include housing, education, healthcare and sustainable livelihoods through community empowerment.

Today, Wren shares his remarkable story on stages across the country and round the world teaching others the tools, tactics and techniques to navigate any adversity, find purpose, and achieve meaningful impact in business and in life

Justin “The Big Pygmy” Wren Speaking Topics

From the Ring to the Rainforest: Leadership Principles from an Ultimate Fighter’s Remarkable Journey

In this inspiring keynote, Justin unveils the rollercoaster of his life – from headlining the UFC in front of capacity crowds in Las Vegas, to plummeting into the abyss of addiction, and ultimately, to his extraordinary redemption deep in the jungles of Africa helping those most in need. With raw vulnerability and emotion, he narrates how one flawed man, grappling with his own insignificance, discovered the power to create change, one person, one life, at a time.

Justin speaks of how personal accountability, resilience in the face of adversity, and profound gratitude for each new day can ignite a fire in all of us to create meaningful change in our work, in our lives, and in our world.

Audiences travel with Justin to the remote Congo Basin Rain Forest, through stunning photos and videos, for a rare insider’s view of the Mbuti Pygmy people, where they laugh, cry, and stand up and cheer as they bear witness to an improbable yet profoundly inspiring tale of redemption – a testament to the enduring power of second chances.

Why choose Justin to speak at your event?
1. Emotional Impact • It’s a story unlike anything you’ve ever heard, masterfully told, with frank, honest vulnerability. The result is an emotionally powerful hour that will leave your audience talking about your event.
2. Custom Content – While Justin is always telling his own story, each presentation contains customized content to the client/industry; healthcare, agriculture, construction, tech, transportation, finance and more. The result is a strong connection, and path of relevance, between what he’s talking about on stage and your audience’s day to day life.
3. Broadly Applicable – Justin’s core message is that every single person in the audience, no matter how flawed they may feel or what adversity they may face, has the ability to create meaningful impact on their company or organization’s mission, in their own life, and in the lives of others. They just have to chose to do so.
Takeaway Messages from Justin’s Keynote:

People leave Justin’s presentation revived in the belief that their own work matters. Their personal individual efforts can create meaningful impact. No matter your place on the corporate ladder, everyone’s effort matters in the mission of the company or organization. He is not asking the audience to pursue a life of service, not at all, that is his calling. Instead, he reminds people that you are never out of the fight, you can always get back up, and that big impact can occur one drop at a time.

Depending on the company or industry he is speaking to, the purpose of the event, and a client’s specific requests, Justin will frame two or three other key takeaway messages into his presentation around the themes of:
- Teamwork
- Creating Opportunity
- Setting Ambitious Goals
- Taking Action
- Getting Uncomfortable in Order to Grow / Embracing the Grind
- Overcoming Fear
- Finding Focus / Don’t Try to Boil The Ocean.
