After battling depression, thoughts of suicide, and drug addiction, Justin experienced a life-changing journey living with the Mbuti Pygmy people of the Congo Basin Rainforest. When he returned, he founded Fight For The Forgotten to knock out the world water crisis, which today has expanded its impact to serve the Batwa Pygmies of Uganda. Justin has a deep-seated belief and ability to empower people to stoke the fire that is within us all.
Justin “The Big Pygmy” Wren is a 10-time State Champion, 5-time All-American, and 2-time National Champion Wrestler, UFC veteran, and has been inducted into the Black Belt Magazine Hall of Fame. His MMA record is 15-2.

Justin has inspired millions through his appearances on the Joe Rogan Experience (9x), Mike Tyson’s HotBoxin’, the Ed Mylett Show, ESPN, Sports Illustrated, NBC, CBS, ABC, FOX, and TEDx Talks, along with his book, Fight for the Forgotten. Today he is the host of his own inspirational podcast, “Overcome with Justin Wren” and a globally recognized keynote speaker.
What happens after you hit rock bottom? Sometimes you find a calling that changes your life forever. You just might become a hope dealer who empowers sustainable change for others.
The Pygmies, a marginalized and forgotten people, became the catalyst for Justin’s journey of purposeful service. Through his experiences with these incredible individuals, he witnessed firsthand the immense impact we can have when we dedicate ourselves to a cause greater than ourselves.
Together, Justin will take audiences through an exploration of the power of service, the profound difference we can make in the lives of others, and the ripple effect that extends far beyond what we can imagine – including the transformation that occurs within ourselves when we choose to serve selflessly.
Above all, this talk is about hope. How to become a hope-dealer from one of the worlds greatest hope dealers turned change makers. It is a reminder that we each possess the power to create a better world, one act of kindness at a time. By leaving our imprint on this world through purposeful service, we can inspire others to do the same, sparking a chain reaction of love and compassion that reverberates far and wide.
In the electrifying arena of life, we all step into the ring, donning the gloves of struggle, pain, and adversity. In the face of every challenge, we have a choice to make — a choice to rise, to fight, and to overcome.
As an MMA fighter, Justin has danced in the octagon, where every second counts and every blow matters. But his toughest fight, his most grueling bout, was not inside those steel cage walls. It was the battle within his own mind, the war against self-doubt, fear, and the weight of past failures.
This speech is not just about fighting in the ring – it’s about fighting for your dreams, your purpose, and the meaningful impact only you can create. Together, Justin takes the audience through unraveling the secrets of the Overcomer’s mindset, the unyielding spirit that separates the victors from the defeated. It’s time to transform pain into fuel, setbacks into comebacks, and doubts into unwavering belief.
