In this episode of The Burn Podcast, Ben Newman sits down with entrepreneur and philanthropist John Chiorando—a no-frills New Yorker whose definition of success begins and ends with one word on his headstone: DAD. John opens up about the most challenging season of his life, honoring his daughter Nina and the vow that now fuels his days: to write a $50 million check toward finding a cure so other families don’t face the same pain. From creating “Be the Good Day” across his companies to leading with faith during heartbreak, John reveals how his greatest title has nothing to do with business and everything to do with family.
John also pulls back the curtain on leadership, culture, and the power of keeping promises. You’ll hear how he built companies that thrive even when he steps away, why he hires leaders “above the company’s pay grade,” and how a simple creed—do what you said you’d do, when you said you’d do it, the way you said you’d do it, regardless of the cost—has guided every decision. This is a raw and moving conversation about grief, responsibility, and choosing to be the good, especially when life makes it the hardest.
