Welcome back to the RU Strong Podcast, where we dive deep into the mindset, heart, and hustle of athletes who live with purpose, push past adversity, and pursue greatness in everything they do. I’m your host, Jeff Durr and today’s guest is the embodiment of what it means to build from the groundup.

On this episode, we’re joined by Xavier Marcoux a competitor whose journey is fueled by a relentless work ethic, unshakable focus, and the kind of discipline that only comes from knowing exactly what you want in the future.With the unwavering support of his parents and a mindset grounded in humility, Xavier didn’t just talk about the grind—he lived it. From starting at the bottom to climbing to the top, he committed to getting better every single day.

He’s the type of guy who throws himself into the deep end and finds a way to swim. He understands that confidence isn’t given, it’s earned by doing the work when no one’s watching. Xavier’s story reminds us that success is about consistency, structure, and being willing to say no to distractions and yes to your priorities.

In this episode, we’ll talk about the importance of being coachable, staying within your routines, taking care of your mental health, and accepting that being human doesn’t make you weak, it makes you real. Xavier shares how good people skills, surrounding yourself with the right teammates, and focusing on the details can make all the difference.

Whether you're in the middle of your career or approaching your final round, Xavier’s perspective will help you appreciate every chapter of life and remind you that there’s always light at the end of the round. Because at the end of the day, a winner is just a loser that never quits.

So, let’s jump in, talk about staying locked in on your North Star, and learn how to make your mindset stronger through practice.

This is one you don’t want to miss.
