Episode Overview

In this inspiring episode of The Own It Show, host Justin Roethlingshoefer sits down with Josh Allen—entrepreneur, father, husband, and now DEKA race finisher—for a powerful, on-site conversation at the Palmer Event Center in Austin, Texas. This episode captures Josh’s transformational health journey: from high stress and poor habits to purpose-driven living, physical renewal, and emotional freedom. What started with a decision to take ownership of his health turned into a redefining of his identity—and a testimony of what happens when you stop procrastinating and choose to live differently.

Josh shares how he lost over 30 pounds, dropped visceral fat, improved HRV, deepened relationships, and became an example to his family—all while balancing a fast-paced life filled with travel, business, and family obligations. It’s a raw, honest look at how true transformation starts from the inside out.


Episode Highlights

● From 290 Pounds to Purpose – Josh shares how he shed weight and excuses by focusing on systems, not fads.
 ● The Power of Process – Learn how repeatable daily habits helped Josh get off the hamster wheel and build a sustainable lifestyle.
 ● Racing Through Resistance – Josh recounts how fear nearly kept him from the starting line—and what it felt like to cross the finish line in tears.
 ● Faith, Family, and Fitness – Why stewarding your health is the highest form of leadership for the people you love.
 ● From Fear to Freedom – How ballroom dancing, DEKA races, and ditching TV led to deeper connection in Josh’s marriage and home.
 ● The Real Win – How patience, community, and owning your journey leads to inevitable outcomes—and joy.


Action Steps

● Audit Your Life – Are you living in reaction mode or creating a repeatable process to thrive?
 ● Put a Race on the Calendar – Don’t just work out—train for something. Purpose fuels discipline.
 ● Change the Environment – From sleep upgrades to cold plunges, build your life to support your goals.
 ● Stop Procrastinating – Make the choice today. Don’t wait for the perfect time—it doesn’t exist.
 ● Involve Your Family – Your transformation is a gift to everyone around you. Invite them in.
 ● Commit Publicly – Like Josh, sign up for something that scares you. Accountability will carry you through.
