The Power of Breakthrough To Achieve What Your Heart Desires | Marques Ogden | TEDxUofTMississauga

Marques Ogden went from the NFL to running his own construction company. Then he lost nearly everything. After losing two million dollars in 90 days, he took a job as a custodian and started over. In this honest and personal talk, Marques shares what it really takes to rebuild—not just your career, but your sense of self. He talks about failure, humility, and the small inner shifts that made all the difference. This isn't a story about quick success. It's about finding your way back when life knocks you down. __________________________________________ Follow TEDxUofTMississauga: Instagram: @utmtedx LinkedIn: TEDxUofTMississauga Email: [email protected] Chair | Ronnie Kainth Email: [email protected] From the NFL to entrepreneurship, Marques Ogden has turned setbacks into a powerful story of resilience, leadership, and reinvention.
