Justin Roethlingshoefer: OWN IT or Lose It - Why Faith, Data, and Discipline Are the Real Biohack

From Breakdown to Breakthrough: Justin Roethlingshoefer on Faith, Health, and Purpose

This week on the Team Never Quit Podcast, Marcus and Melanie sit down with Justin Roethlingshoefer—human performance expert, data-driven health strategist, and founder of OWN IT Coaching—to explore how rock-bottom moments can fuel world-class breakthroughs.
With over two decades of experience optimizing performance for NCAA and NHL athletes, Justin shares how a life-threatening health scare forced him to apply his elite strategies to himself—uncovering a deeper, more universal truth: everyone deserves access to the systems that help the best perform at their best.
Now a bestselling author, speaker, and host of The OWN IT Show, Justin helps leaders, executives, and athletes take ownership of their health so they can fully live out their God-given mission. His journey is a powerful reminder that faith, discipline, and purpose-driven living are essential for real transformation.
Whether you’re a high achiever, a health seeker, or someone navigating personal adversity, Justin’s story will challenge you to stop surviving—and start owning your life, mind, body, and mission.
