What if the key to success isn't just about motivation but about embracing a mindset of discipline and self-leadership? In this riveting episode of Lou Diamond's Thrive LouD, former NFL athlete Marques Ogden joins us to unpack his journey from the brink of financial ruin to becoming a powerhouse of inspiration. Get ready for an insightful discussion on how to face life's storms head-on.

Marques, a speaker, podcaster, and business coach, delves deep into the significance of being your own CEO, a lesson impressed upon him by his rookie NFL coach. Learn about the moment Ogden realized that ego was his downfall, leading him to a transformational awakening while working as a custodian.

  • Ogden's embrace of the Bison mentality, learning to thrive by moving through life's inevitable storms.
