What does it take to show up like a champion long before the win ever arrives?
This week on Mpactful Messages: The Let’s Talk About It Podcast, Mayce DelValle and Missy Washam sit down with Dr. Austyn Yarborough to explore the quote: “Champions behave like champions long before they become champions.” (Bill Walsh)
Austyn’s journey from competitive gymnast to health coach gives a powerful look at what it means to build discipline long before life demands it. She shares how early habits shaped her resilience, how she learned to lead herself through health battles, and why consistency matters more than motivation. Together, they unpack what champion behavior looks like in real life... the habits nobody sees, the choices that build strength, and the mindset that carries you through seasons when your body or circumstances feel out of control.
Whether you lead in the workplace, in your home, or in your own health, this conversation will remind you that greatness is built in the quiet daily decisions that align with who you want to become.
