From Scarcity to Abundance: Redeeming your health story

In this powerful episode of The Own It Show, Justin Rothlinghofer sits down with New York Times bestselling author and financial disruptor Garrett Gunderson to explore the profound connection between mindset and wealth across all areas of life. Garrett shares his deeply personal journey from growing up in a scarcity-driven family where fear dominated financial decisions to experiencing a life-threatening health crisis that forced him to confront how stress and limiting beliefs were literally destroying his body. Through vulnerable storytelling, he reveals how operating from scarcity doesn't just limit our bank accounts—it infiltrates our relationships, health, and ability to serve others at the highest level.The conversation dives into the transformative shift from "playing to win" versus "win and play," where Garrett explains that when we're living our God-given purpose, we've already won because the victory is in the work itself, not some future outcome. Justin and Garrett explore practical frameworks for recognizing scarcity patterns, the power of speaking our hidden money stories out loud, and why you literally "can't shrink your way to wealth." This episode is essential listening for entrepreneurs and leaders who want to break free from limiting beliefs that keep them from stewarding their resources—financial, physical, and relational—with the abundance mindset required for true impact and legacy.1:47 - Guest Introduction4:12 - Scarcity vs. Abundance Definitions8:35 - Garrett's Family History & Money Trauma14:08 - The Nancy Conversation - Turning Point18:22 - 2023 Health Crisis Story23:41 - How Scarcity Shows Up (Relationships, Health, Career)28:15 - "Can't Shrink Your Way to Wealth" Philosophy33:29 - Vision vs. Goals Discussion38:03 - Son's Health Journey & Being Resourceful43:17 - Money Stories We Tell Ourselves48:52 - The Six D's Framework Discussion53:26 - "Play to Win" vs. "Win and Play" Philosophy=========================== Subscribe and Listen to the Own It Show HERE:➡︎ YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@justinroethlingshoefer➡︎ Apple Podcasts:https://apple.co/3KCyN3j➡︎ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3F58Ez4lbIKQ6kMu2pfpIG=========================== Resources: ⚡️CHECK OUR PROGRAMS: https://ownitcoaching.com/programs/⚡️BOOK: https://thepowerofownershipbook.com/=========================== Connect with Justin Roethlingshoefer on Social Media:➡︎ linkedin.com/in/justin-roethlingshoefer➡︎https://www.instagram.com/justinroeth/?hl=en💪 OWN IT CoachingIf you’re a high performer and you want a complete health optimization system— high energy, deeper sleep, better focus, and long-term resilience, this is what we do inside OWN IT Coaching.It’s personalized coaching for executives and leaders built around deep diagnostics, coaching accountability, precision nutrition & fitness, targeted supplementation, recovery, and objective data. Not sure where to begin?
