Rounding The Bases With Joel Goldberg

Ep. 732 Marques Ogden | Tackling the Trenches


Listen Later

On this episode, our audience will hear the incredible story of a former athlete who learned to fail forward. His football career was a charmed one. In college, he was a two-time all conference offensive lineman and also the MVP of his senior year. In 2003 his dreams of playing in the NFL became reality when he was drafted by the Jacksonville Jaguars, and his athletic success helped pave the way for a lucrative commercial construction endeavor. But within a decade, a business deal gone awry left him without a home or a car, just a choice. It was then that Marques Ogden traded eight figures in revenue for $8.25 an hour to moonlight as a janitor. Even though the work was humble, it was his first step forward on the path to rebuilding the life he envisioned for himself. Now Marques is a speaker, best selling author, executive coach who has taken that failure - and its hard won lessons - to help others succeed.
