    8: Jean-Philippe Rutabayiro - Why Talent Is Never Enough: The Mental Edge That Separates Good from Great

    Jean-Philippe Rutabayiro played professionally in six countries, represented Rwanda at the World Cup qualifiers, and was named team captain within three months of arriving at his NCAA university in New York. But before any of that, he was sitting in the stands, watching his best friend start every game from his position, feeling lost and bitter at the bottom of a 25-man roster. In this episode, JP breaks down the exact mental shift that turned things around: understanding that talent, when it meets talent, stops being the differentiator. What takes over is mindset, and mindset is trainable. Drawing on his Master's research in psychology and years of work with the BTC Academy, JP unpacks the self-determination theory and its three core pillars: autonomy, competence, and relatedness. He introduces his 4 P's framework for building real confidence, and explains why intrinsic motivation is the one variable that determines whether a young athlete grows into their potential or quietly drops out. Whether you're an athlete, a parent, or a coach, this conversation will change how you think about development. ----- Where to find Jean-Philippe Rutabayiro Follow Jean-Philippe Rutabayiro on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/btc.aca/ Discover BTC Academy: https://www.btcacademy.ca/ ----- Episodes covering similar topics you might enjoy Episode 3: Chasing Ironman & 70.3 Worlds | Guillaume Smith Episode 4: Haven Quinlan – What Sustainable Fitness Actually Looks Like Episode 6: Dylan Pearce - When Sport Becomes a Lifeline ----- Our Parters Innovaclim: https://podcastsantesport.com/innovaclim Services Financiers Sébastien Fournier: https://podcastsantesport.com/finances Pep2Go: FELIX10 - https://pep2go.ca/ ----- Felix's Favorite Products Yoga Balls from Nouveau Yoga: https://nouveauyoga.com/?ref=PodcastSanteSport Book Why We Sleep by Matthew Walker: https://amzn.to/3Zq0DHe Book The Peaceful Warrior by Dan Millman: https://amzn.to/4qyUu7L ----- Our platforms Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/health_sport_podcast/ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3Nf4WVhjGknN0u88UjqlMi YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@HealthSportPodcast Site web: www.podcastsantesport.com Email: https://podcastsantesport.com/pages/contact

    7: Beatrice Lamarche - Why 60% of Female Athletes Limit Their Activity During Their Period

    Did you know that 60% of female athletes limit or reduce their physical activity during their period? Beatrice Lamarche did not need a statistic to understand that reality. She lived it through six years of university volleyball, never once voicing her discomfort to a coach. Now on the other side of the gym as an assistant coach with the Rouge et Or and an advocate with the Own It. Period. campaign, she is determined to make sure the next generation does not have to carry that silence alone. This episode is a direct conversation about what needs to change in women's sport, why coaches are the key to unlocking that change, and how creating a culture of open communication around menstrual and pelvic health can reduce stress, improve performance, and make sport a safer space for women at every level. ----- Where to find Beatrice Follow Beatrice on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bealamarche/ Follow Égale Action on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/egaleaction/ Follow Femmes dans le sport (Own It.

    6: Will Pattinson - I Relapsed After 8 Months Sober. It Was the Best Thing That Ever Happened to Me.

    Most people who want to lose weight know what to do, they just can't get out of their own way. For Will Pattinson, the obstacle wasn't information. It was ten years of binge drinking, drug use and gambling that had become his entire identity. At 136 kilos, with doctors warning him he was a ticking time bomb, he still couldn't see the problem. Until he did. What followed was one of the most radical lifestyle turnarounds you'll hear on this podcast. No crash program. No overnight miracle. Just 10,000 steps a day, a strict calorie deficit, no alcohol, and the same addictive drive that had once wrecked his health now pointed in an entirely new direction. Within two years, he had lost 55 kilos, run a 100km ultramarathon, and signed up for the Marathon des Sables, a six-day, 270km desert race in Morocco that requires carrying your own food and gear across the Sahara. In this conversation, Will breaks down exactly how he did it: how he used Coke Zero to kill cravings, why he weighed himself once a week and tracked every calorie, why he never changed his route or his routine when something was working, and why he believes anyone with an addictive personality has a secret weapon they haven't used yet. If you want to lose weight, rebuild your life, or simply understand what sustainable transformation actually looks like, this episode is for you. ----- Where to find Will Follow Will on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/will_pattinson95/ ----- Episodes on similar topics you might enjoy Episode 4: Haven Quinlan – What Sustainable Fitness Actually Looks Like Episode 5: Dylan Pearce - When Sport Becomes a Lifeline ----- Felix's Favorite Products Yoga Balls from Nouveau Yoga: https://nouveauyoga.com/?ref=PodcastSanteSport Book Why We Sleep by Matthew Walker: https://amzn.to/3Zq0DHe Book The Peaceful Warrior by Dan Millman: https://amzn.to/4qyUu7L ----- Our platforms Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/health_sport_podcast/ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3Nf4WVhjGknN0u88UjqlMi YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@HealthSportPodcast Site web: www.podcastsantesport.com Email: https://podcastsantesport.com/pages/contact

    Intro - Welcome to the Health Sport Podcast

    My name is Félix Tremblay, and since childhood, movement has been an integral part of my life. I’ve had the chance to explore a wide variety of sports: soccer, hockey, volleyball, swimming, running, and eight years of competitive biathlon. These experiences shaped my discipline, my passion for effort, and my constant curiosity about everything related to sports and health. Today, I continue to fuel this passion through cross-country skiing, running, and cycling. Having completed six half-marathons and currently preparing for my very first marathon in the fall of 2025, I constantly set new challenges for myself, always with the goal of pushing my limits and learning more about myself through sport. At the same time, I’ve always been driven by scientific curiosity. Whenever the opportunity arose, I would ask questions to coaches, health professionals, or athletes to better understand their approaches. Today, that same curiosity comes to life through my podcast, a space where I share rich and accessible conversations. My goal: to inspire and help people take charge of their health, one conversation at a time.
