Let's GO!!! This is not your average podcast episode. No fluff, no filler—just straight fire. This episode is one that'll hit you in the heart AND light a fire under your feet. I sat down with my guy, NFL quarterback Brett Rypien—seven-year vet, newlywed, and one of the most mentally dialed-in athletes I've ever coached. We've trained together for 6 years now, and I can tell you this: he is one snap away from becoming a household name. Seriously. Additionally, I have a MINDSET section where I expand on the “One Snap Away” mentality and how this applies to each and every one of us. Lastly, I close this week's podcast with a personal share on my son Luke Durkin who just graduated from Davidson College (NC) over the weekend and who's about to embark upon law school this Fall. I share my most proud moment over his 4-year career in school, football, and the ROTC. Whether you're an athlete, a coach, a leader, or just someone hungry for passion, purpose, & IMPACT—you're going to want to hear this episode! In This Episode, We Hit: Mindset Mastery: What it means to “live in victory, not for victory.” Brett's daily habits will challenge how you start your mornings—and why he ditched social media cold turkey. Faith in the Fire: Brett's faith isn't just something he talks about—it's his anchor. He shares how God, prayer, and how Psalm 23 keep him steady through the NFL's chaos. Grinding in the Shadows: We talk about what it's like to fight for a job every year. No guaranteed money. No promises. Just hard work, sweat, and belief. The Rypien Cup: Yes, it's real. A family golf battle royale that makes Ryder Cup look tame. You'll love this story. NFL Brotherhood: Lessons from Russ, Cooper Kupp, Cortland Sutton—and why the guys who stick around the longest win with their mind, not just their arm. My take on why backups often make the BEST coaches… and why Brett is destined for greatness beyond football. The “ONE SNAP AWAY” mentality. My personal section filled with pride & joy as my oldest son Luke Durkin just graduated from college and I share some highlights, lowlights, and what I'm most proud of over his 4-year career. PLUS: The Brett Rypien Jump Rope Challenge is officially ON. Can you hit 900 straight? Bring it on!! This episode is raw. It's real. It's a masterclass in mindset, faith, and perseverance. Hit play. Take notes. Share this with someone who needs a little light today. And keep your eyes on #11 in Minnesota—Brett Rypien is one snap away. Let's GO! Thanks for tuning-in.

FLIP. THE. SWITCH. That's right — today's not just another day… it's your turnaround day. In this episode, I'm coming in HOT with a soul-stirring solo message and then diving into some deep, raw, and powerful Q&A from our recent Mastermind Retreat right here in San Diego. This one is packed with FIRE and practical tools to help you level up in business, leadership, and LIFE. We kick it off with a 7-part “Get Your Mind Right” power talk to help you flip the switch in whatever season you're in — whether you're thriving or just trying to stay afloat. I'm dropping dimes on mindset, momentum, and what it really takes to create lasting transformation. Then, I answer 8 big questions straight from our Mastermind family — covering everything from building a career in fitness, to staying grounded during turbulent times, to growing a business with purpose and soul. I even share a few things I'm most excited about this year (hint: Montana… Mastermind… IXP… let's go!). What You'll Learn in This Episode: How to flip the switch when you're stuck, stagnant, or seeking a breakthrough The 7 steps to create momentum and turn around ANY season of life How failure is not a loss… it's a lesson Why discipline = freedom (yep, even when you don't feel like it) The habits that drive high performance and deep fulfillment How to compartmentalize your busy life and still stay grounded Why training is my divine uniqueness (and how you can find yours) The #1 mindset shift for launching your dream biz 8 people ask awesome questions for the Q&A Why being in the right room is everything (join us at a retreat!) A Personal Note: This one hits different. It's been a wild season — celebrating my mom's life one week and pouring into our retreat community the next. That dichotomy of life reminded me: there's no time to waste. Today's the day. Flip the switch. Step into your light. And LET'S GO!

My heart is literally on fire today…and not because of a workout —but because we're going deep on HEART HEALTH with one of the top preventative cardiologists in the country, Dr. Milind Parikh. This is personal for me. My dad died of a heart attack at 58. I've got the genetics. I've also got the drive to outlive it. And now, I've got the data AND treatments to potentially stave off the #1 Killer in America—heart attack. On today's IMPACT SHOW episode, Dr. Parikh walks us through what it means to be a preventative cardiologist, why most heart attacks are 100% preventable, and how A.I.-powered Coronary CT scans are revolutionizing modern medicine. This is what is now being called Medicine 3.0 — and friends, it's here. Here are some of the things we discuss: What is “preventative cardiology” and what exactly do you do? The 4 pillars of heart health and how you can improve each one of them. Why we have it wrong many times and WHY “normal” cholesterol doesn't guarantee a healthy heart. The difference between soft plaque vs. hard plaque (this is BIG!); which one is “good” and which one is “bad.” What exactly is a CT heart scan and what do you look for? How the software & technology in a Coronary CT scan with A.I. plaque analysis & FFR shows the difference between “soft plaque” and “hard plaque” and your true risk of having a heart attack. What causes plaque buildup in the heart? How does the A.I. fit into all of this and what is its role? The million dollar question: “Can you reverse plaque buildup and if so, HOW?” Why sleep apnea (often called the “Silent killer”) can ultimately stress your heart and ultimately cause a heart attack/death. The power of early detection of heart disease and how a Coronary CT scan with A.I. plaque analysis can help prevent a coronary episode. Supplements & new meds that may reverse plaque. This is interesting! Why you must start testing NOW— even if you “feel fine.” What's next in Medicine 3.0 and what is your role in this cutting-edge field? This is one of the most important episodes I've ever done. Again, it's something near & dear to my heart (pardon the pun). If you have a family history of heart disease OR you just want to maximize your health and prevent heart disease, this is a MUST LISTEN to episode. If you love LIFE and want to stave off coronary disease or a heart attack, DO NOT MISS THIS ONE…your LIFE may depend on it. LISTEN. SHARE. SAVE A LIFE. If this hits home, please share it with someone you care about. You just might save their life.

This episode right here is going to fire you up, crack your heart wide open, and give you the fuel you need to keep chasing your God-sized dreams. Today, I'm joined by a brother, a warrior, a Kingdom-driven entrepreneur, and a man who is absolutely living a life worth telling a story about—Justin Prince. Justin has built five (5) multimillion-dollar businesses. He's spoken all over the world. He's the co-founder of Make Wellness, a brand that's disrupting the health and supplement game. And he's also the author of Be the One—a book that will punch you in the soul in all the best ways. What you'll hear in today's episode goes way beyond business. It's about resilience, betrayal, faith, purpose, and trusting God even when you're walking through the fire. What You'll Get in This Power-Packed Episode: The painful betrayal that ended a successful 11-year run at the top—and how Justin used it as fuel to create something even greater. Why “trust the redirect” became his guiding phrase during his darkest season. How he went from flipping pizzas and selling Bible videos in a mall kiosk to building global companies. The power of identity-based success: why you'll never outperform how you see yourself. What it really means to “Be the One” and create generational change. Why intentional living is the secret to fulfillment (and how a single moment with John Maxwell changed his life). The launch story behind Make Wellness, and how their bioactive peptides are revolutionizing health. How to win both races in life: success and fulfillment. The truth about money—and how it either magnifies or exposes who you really are.   Quotes to Remember: “Success without fulfillment is the ultimate failure.” “You are the ONE. And you were born for such a time as this.” “They tried to bury us—but they didn't realize we were seeds.” “Don't just react to life—create it.” “You can't always control what happens, but you can control what happens next.” In this episode, Justin breaks down the six pillars of Make Wellness—including how their bioactive precision peptides are helping people build muscle, burn fat, increase energy, reduce stress, and improve focus—all with nature-based, clinically-backed science. Justin also shares how to lead yourself first, then your team, your family, and your business from a place of alignment and soul-level clarity. If you're walking through fire, if you're in a season of setbacks, or if you're questioning your next move—this episode is a reminder that God is in the details, and your comeback is just getting started. Be the one. Be bold. Be intentional. And go create IMPACT.

Greetings and welcome back to another great episode of The Todd Durkin IMPACT Show—and today, I've got something REALLY special for you. I recently wrapped up two incredible days at the NASM HQ (that's the National Academy of Sports Medicine) in Gilbert, Arizona. Not only did I deliver TWO (2) keynotes to their team of 100+ passionate fitness professionals & executives, but I also sat down with three (3) of NASM's top leaders for a powerful series of convos that I had to bring straight to YOU today. This episode is all about coaching, leadership, mindset, and the FUTURE of the fitness industry. I hope you are ready to dive in…   In This Episode, You'll Learn: Mindset Coaching with TD (Opening Segment): Why relationships > resumes—and how to deepen the ones that matter most. How perfection is killing your momentum—and what to do about it. The power of vision as your anchor—not just for 2025, but for the next decade of your life and business. Behind-the-scenes look at how we're using vision boards at TDE & Impact X—and why YOU should too. On Location at NASM HQ (Gilbert, AZ): I sat down with three (3) NASM leaders to talk shop, drop fire, and share the future of coaching with you.   Guest #1: Tony Ambler-Wright – Product Manager, NASM What NASM-1 (aka N1 Membership) is—and how it supports 40,000+ trainers every year. Why the biggest opportunity in fitness is actually in career sustainability, not just certification. The rise of high school and midlife career changers entering the industry—and how NASM is equipping them. Guest #2: Mike Fantigrassi – Head of Product, NASM The BIGGEST trends shaping the fitness world in 2025: longevity, biohacking, GLP-1s, wellness coaching. How NASM is teaching trainers to safely and effectively coach clients on weight loss meds like Ozempic. The shift toward behavior change, motivational interviewing, and building deeper client relationships. Why 40% of NASM course buyers are using them for personal growth, not just careers. Guest #3: David Van Daff (aka D.V.D.) – VP, Industry Development & Public Affairs A powerful recap of my keynote to NASM's full team. What it really means to lead at work, at home, and within your community. How to develop leaders in your business (and why it's the fastest path to growth). Setting guardrails around your schedule, energy, and relationships to avoid burnout. Why trainers MUST learn sales, communication, and business development to stay in the game long-term. And the one thing every coach needs to remember: “Never underestimate the power of ONE.”   Big Takeaways from this episode: Today's trainer needs to be more than just physically fit—they need to be a leader, a life coach, a business builder, and a trusted guide. The fitness industry isn't shrinking—it's EXPANDING. But only those who evolve will thrive. Success today is about alignment of your vision, your habits, and your community. If you're a trainer, coach, or leader who's fired up to create IMPACT—do me a favor.

Today's episode is one of the most special and sacred I've ever recorded. My dear mom, Mary “Muffy” Durkin—aka Momma Durkin—passed away on April 5th, 2025, at the age of 91. And while I knew this day would come, nothing quite prepares your heart for the final goodbye. Today, I wanted to share with you my heart, along with some never-heard stories before that I think are going to make you smile and understand a woman who had tremendous IMPACT on me, my 7-brothers and sisters, and many others. This one's for her! I dedicate this episode to honor and celebrate her incredible 91-years of life…a life full of grit, love, sweetness (literally), unwavering faith, and deep sacrifice. Mom was the rock, the glue, the angel on Earth who raised 8 kids as a single mom, worked as a private duty nurse, and never once let life's tough circumstances dim her joy or love. In this episode, I share my “Top 10 Favorite Memories of Momma Durkin” (and a few extras I just couldn't leave out). Here is some of what you will hear about: The time she funded my massage therapy school when I had nothing. How she handcrafted over 100 “Get Your Mind Right” needlepoint signs in 2019-2020. Her legendary “sugar water” and 12-teaspoon coffees (no joke). Her love of cruising—and the infamous Bermuda family cruise with 27 Durkin's! That unforgettable moment she almost died after crashing my huddle at a Perform Better conference a few years ago… and LIVED to tell about it. One of the most self-less things she ever did when we moved houses when I was going into High School. One of the most amazing gifts she ever game me and my family in 1994. What made me almost smoke my first cigarette with Mom. Why she broke a spoon over my butt when I was a kid. The late-night conversation just hours before she passed… where she left me with words I'll treasure forever. We laughed, we cried, we reflected, and we celebrated. That's what this episode is all about. I pray it inspires you to call your mom (or someone you love) today. Say what needs to be said. Love out loud. Thank you to all of YOU who have reached out over the past week with texts, DMs, prayers, and love. My family and I are beyond grateful. Momma Durkin, I love you with all my heart. And I promise, I'll keep making you proud. If you find value in today's episode, please make sure you share it. Please forward it to your friends and family and share it on your social media.

Buckle-up for this one. You got a 2-parter. First, I'm coming out of the gate Spittin' Fire on TOUGHNESS. Yep. I go off on a little rant about toughness today and why our society needs a bit more tenacity & toughness. Can you feel me on this? #Buckle-up. LMK what you think after you listen in. Speaking of toughness, then we are talking parenting. Yep. This one is for all the parents, soon-to-be parents, and everyone who plays a role in raising little world changers & IMPACT-makers—this episode is FOR YOU. Today, I sit down with the incredible Laura Hunter and Jennifer Walker from the Moms on Call Podcast, two powerhouse pediatric nurses, moms, and authors who have helped thousands of parents navigate the early years, teen-years, and even beyond with more confidence, clarity, and calm. We're talking ALL things parenting—how to cut through the noise, trust your instincts, and create a rhythm that works for YOU and your family. And let me tell you—this conversation is full of wisdom, practical tips, and reassurance that you're doing better than you think. Here's what we specifically cover on today's IMPACT SHOW: ✅ 3-things you can do for you to be TOUGH in sport, business, or LIFE. ✅ How to get your mind right when your mind is NOT right. ✅ Repeat these words to flip your mindset and fill your mind up with the right thoughts and processes. ✅ Parenting. Why modern parenting has become more overwhelming than ever—and how to simplify it. ✅ The Moms on Call method—real-world solutions to sleep, schedules, and feeding (YES, PLEASE!). ✅ The power of routines and why structure actually creates more freedom (for you AND your kids). ✅ The biggest myths about parenting—and what ACTUALLY works. ✅ Navigating the toddler years without losing your mind. ✅ Why “perfect” parenting doesn't exist—and why that's actually a good thing. ✅ What I would do if I could do it all over again? If you're a parent looking for some guidance (or just reassurance that you're not alone in the chaos), THIS is an episode you don't want to miss.

Who's ready to dominate Q2 of 2025? Not only is it mindset, but it's being equipped and ready to go so we can win this quarter. In addition to Spittin' Fire and providing you with some tools and pivotal “exercises” for maximizing your success and dreams, I also have Dr. Emily Splichal on today's IMPACT SHOW. Dr. Splichal is a functional podiatrist, a movement longevity doctor, and a human movement specialist who is a global leader on the topics of postural alignment and human movement as it relates to the feet. She drops a ton of wisdom to us, as well as provides a “morning & evening routine just for the feet” to maximize their health & performance. Buckle up for this fascinating discussion and it all starts NOW.   On today's IMPACT SHOW podcast, we specifically discuss the following: The importance of not only doing your “monthly” IMPACT exercises (10-Forms of Wealth & 3-in-30), but doing a ‘90-Day Wonder' exercise. Why a “90-Day Wonder” exercise will catapult your focus, productivity and dreams to help change your business & life… Why I often call this exercise “My 90-Day DreamWorX” Exercise… In today's HEALTHSET section of the podcast, along with the BUSINESS & LEADERSHIP section, we have Dr. Emily Splichal sharing her mind-blowing knowledge and expertise on the feet. As the CEO & Founder of Naboso, she holds nothing back on today's show as how the feet are the foundation of great health, fitness, and movement. Dr. Splichal shares the 4-pillars of great foot health & performance and how the feet affect so many things when it comes to health, including how they tie to the pelvic floor, core performance, posture, and more. Dr. Splichal discusses how to specifically recover the feet on a daily basis, as well as provides a “morning & evening routine just for the feet.” How daily foot recovery & sensory activation can enhance performance, reduce pain, and improve balance. The truth about barefoot training, orthotics, and the “super shoe” trend—what really works. The entrepreneurial journey of building Naboso—and the lessons Dr. Emily has learned along the way. It's always an honor to have a global leader and expert on the IMPACT SHOW. Dr. Splichal is exactly that and you will see her deep extensive knowledge on the feet and how they impact so much of our overall performance. Between her interview and the “exercises” you get from me on maximizing your success & impact in Q2 of 2025, you are in for a real treat.   If you enjoy today's IMPACT SHOW podcast, please share your enthusiasm.

Lastly, this all stems around your 3-year vision and how you can step-into your best & highest self, starting right NOW. Today's IMPACT SHOW podcast specifically covers: What “Health-set” steps can you take this week to operate at a higher level physically? This includes increasing water intake, recovery & bodywork suggestions, and even supplementation thoughts & suggestions. Your “PIT-CREW.” Who's on it? Be careful—choose wisely!

A visionary writing exercise that will allow you to look into the future, visualize, and potentiate what you so desire. What does F.E.A.R. stand for? 5-things you NEED to make sure your 3-year vision comes to fruition.

Buckle-up on this week's IMPACT SHOW podcast as we have an extremely special one. Not only is she one of the top nutritionists and medical experts in the world, we go all the way back to Middle School. Yep. Cynthia Thurlow and I went to middle school (Brick, NJ) together and she has since transformed into one of the top nutritionists, nurse practitioners, and even podcasters in the world. BOOM. On today's show we talk ALL things nutrition, mindset, healthset, leadership & business growth, and we even get a little personal. Enjoy today's IMPACT SHOW as this is just some of what you will hear about: One of Cynthia's quotes/mantras that she got from her late father and lives by today. Her MINDSET that allows her to IMPACT so many people. Intermittent Fasting. Defined, who should consider using it as part of their nutritional plan,  why you may want to consider using it, who should NOT use Intermittent Fasting, and a few hacks to most effectively use it. Gut health, why it's such a big issue today, and what you can do to fortify your gut. Some “cutting-edge” supplements to consider (besides the basics) that can help people become even healthier, more vibrant & energetic, and feel better. What is “Cynthia Thurlow's High-Performance Routine” (Personal, Nutrition, and/or Business) that allows her to perform at highest level? Cythia's top “Leadership & Business Growth Tips and Hacks.” What was the 1-thing that changed the trajectory of your career? How do you continue to GROW your following? What's the BEST thing you get to do these days with your business? What's the TOUGHEST thing you do for your business these days? What is 1-Leadership TIP that you could offer our audience today? What does IMPACT mean to you? This one is one for the ages. Undoubtedly, it will be one of the Top 5 episodes of 2025. Heck, it might slip into the Top 5 ALL-TIME out of 414 episodes—it's that good! Maybe I have a hometown bias but seriously, Cynthia Thurlow is the real-deal and she over-delivered in this episode and brought tremendous value.

Welcome back podcast family and I hope you're ready to get fired-up today! I've got a “special” episode for you this week as I only get the opportunity to speak at Chapel at Christian Unified Schools 2x per year—and this is ONE of them. Before we tune-in “Live” to that chapel/keynote, I am going to spit some fire on 3 things:  One of my favorite quotes. A MINDSET reminder to make sure you are doing “it.” My thoughts on the Super Bowl, LEADERSHIP, & winning (even though I didn't know the winner when I recorded this). And then it's time to share my chapel message. When my good friend, Pastor David Jeremiah, told me his vision 8-years ago to make chapel one of the highlights of the week EVERY week at Christian schools, he asked me to be a part of it. And I'm still honored to be speak at it every year. I recently had the opportunity to help kick off the 2025 year at chapel. Without further ado, let's go out to Christian Unified Schools now to a packed-house of over 1,200 students and get fired-up about WINNING 2025… If you enjoy today's episode, please shine LIGHT into your community and on your social media by sharing this episode.

Woah--Stop scrolling! This is a MUST-LISTEN to episode today with one of the most successful, innovative, crafty, and wisest entrepreneurs of our modern time. Meet Jeff Fenster. Jeff is a serial entrepreneur who has started and sold several different companies in his career, and he's still only in his 40's. This includes his latest entrepreneurial initiatives with both EVERBOWL and WeBuild, and what he's doing with those companies to drive impact. In this powerful episode of the IMPACT SHOW, I sat down with Jeff live, in-studio as he shared his secrets to success and we dove deep into the mindset, processes, and strategies that have helped him achieve extraordinary results in both business and life. Whether you're an entrepreneur, athlete, or simply someone looking for deep personal and business growth, Jeff's journey and lessons are a goldmine. Here are some of the specific things we discussed on today's epic IMPACT SHOW podcast episode: What's the best piece of advice you ever received? Jeff's shares his “5-Step Formula for Success & Legacy.” A few of Jeff's top entrepreneurial lessons, including how he started EVERBOWL and WeBuild. What is “Kaizen” and why is it important in entrepreneurship & success. The Power of “Relationship Capital.” The Mindset of Winners. It is here that Jeff shares his perspective on success and how he stays focused on the process. Using the example of Roger Federer, who won 85% of his matches despite only winning 55% of individual points, Jeff emphasizes that the process is what drives true success. Speaking and podcasting. What does he love about both of them. Jeff talks about the balancing act of Family & Entrepreneurship. Jeff describes “Legacy & Impact” and how he will achieve both. This one will go down for the ages. There is so much wisdom in here that it would typically only be found in an MBA course at a Top-10 B-School. Haha. Jeff's wisdom dispensed proves that success isn't about luck or innate talent. It's about applying a formula that anyone can follow. Whether you're starting a business, growing your career, or working on personal development, his insights on relationships, consistency, and effort will help you create extraordinary results. If this episode served you and helped you with your mindset, entrepreneurial pursuits, or how to “balance” out business & life success, please share it with your friends and family, and tag Jeff & I.

It's about to get deep. I'm not sure it's because I'm on Day 12 of a 21-Day Fast or if the Spirit is speaking or both, but today's episode is extremely personal. The 4-Quarters of today's SHOW includes… MOTIVATION & MINDSET. “Only when you are brave enough to explore the darkness will you discover the infinite power of our light.” Check out my coaching prompts and action steps for this one. HEALTHSET. Updates on my 21-Day Fast and why it's extremely hard, but good, right now. I also share the 2 reasons WHY I'm doing this fast and the 5 questions I'm praying for. LEADERSHIP. Today, I want to go deep on how to lead with vision, not fear. This includes setting a clear vision for your business or career or team rather than reacting to challenges with anxiety or short term fixes. Additionally, I will share 5-things fear does to you and discuss how to flip fear into fuel. Lastly, I share the power and importance of a “90-Day Wonder” and talk about how it can help you grow your influence, income, and impact. This is an exercise I have been doing for a long time and has been instrumental in keeping focus on the most important tasks on hand, along with keeping the vision of where we are going also. This concludes with a MUST-DO action step that will significantly help your business/career, bottom-line, and IMPACT grow. PERSONAL. There are two-things I want to share & discuss today. First and foremost, I want to share the action-steps that our team and community (this includes you!) will be taking to “give-back” and “BE THE LIGHT” up in Los Angeles, that has suffered utter decimation and still battling. There are several activations underway that you can get involved with and ALL are in today's IMPACT SHOW. We are calling this entire activation: “OPERATION IMPACT, Rebuild-LA.” WE want to help “10” families who have been displaced are in need with finances or supplies. WE want to raise funds to completely rebuild 1-gym up there in the heart of Los Angeles so that a new “Sanctuary” can be returned and birthed up there. I believe with all of our sponsors, vendors, and Community (here on the podcast as well), that we can do this. We will be doing a Virtual Speaker's Summit in early March to raise even more funds. We will have 20-world-class speakers sharing their stories of inspiration to motivate & inspire you. Additionally, Drew Brees just committed to speak at this as well to hopefully raise even more funds. This will be completely by donation and I'm confident and hopeful that we can raise a lot of money starting NOW for the virtual event. More details to come but you can contribute to the Durkin IMPACT Foundation NOW [501-c-3, tax-deductible] So three great initiatives we are underway with and hope between NOW and the next 90-Days, that we can raise a lot of money to give back to those who need it so desperately right now. Please see BELOW for ways to donate. Lastly, Momma Durkin. Please pray for her. My 91-year old Mom doesn't have much time left and she sure could use your prayers right now. I am heading down to see her in Orlando this week and can't wait to give her a big bear-hug again. Thanks for tuning-in.

Are you ready to receive more peace, joy, and happiness in your life? Anyone else ready for more calm over the holidays and in 2025? Well, today is your lucky day. I have an expert on the podcast today who studies “Joy & Happiness” unlike anyone I know. His name is Andrew Cannon and he's on a mission to make the world a much happier and healthier place — especially for kids. Andrew is the founder of EQ Joy, an organization that's helping children and adults alike harness the power of emotional intelligence and joy. Trust me, you don't want to miss this one! Andrew brings over 30 years of experience in market research and insights to his work with EQ Joy, but it's his personal journey that really makes his message so impactful. After struggling with depression, Andrew discovered the fundamental truth that strong self-love and authentic belonging are key building blocks to a life filled with joy. Now, through EQ Joy, he's empowering kids to develop emotional intelligence and helping adults unlock more joy in their daily lives. In this conversation, Andrew and I dive into some heavy statistics that really hit home. Did you know that 1 in 10 high school students (grades 9-12) in the U.S. attempted suicide in 2021? That's nearly 2 million kids. This statistic is absolutely heartbreaking, and it's something we need to address — especially when we consider that many of these kids just don't know how to navigate their emotions. But it's not all heavy. We also talk about how we can actively choose joy every single day and build a toolkit for mental and emotional well-being — for ourselves and for the children in our lives. Here's what we cover: The importance of emotional intelligence (EQ) and how it can help kids build resilience, self-worth, and emotional awareness. Simple, practical strategies for cultivating joy in your own life — every single day. How EQ Joy is making an impact and how you can get involved, whether that's through donations, volunteering, or simply spreading the message. And one of my personal favorite topics: micro-moments of joy — those small but powerful experiences that happen every day if we just stop and notice them. One thing Andrew said really stuck with me: "The more joy you bring into the world, the more you'll create in your own life." I love that, and it's something we can all take to heart. What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why asking for help isn't a weakness — it's a chance for others to be of service and find joy themselves. How to create an environment of joy and emotional resilience for kids, especially in a post-pandemic world. The power of emotional intelligence to change lives — and how you can cultivate it in both your own life and the lives of the kids around you. Practical ways to add more joy to your day (without overthinking it!). If you're passionate about spreading joy — or if you want to bring more joy into your own life — this episode is for you. Andrew shares some truly powerful insights that can help us all take steps toward a more joyful, fulfilling life. If you enjoyed this episode, I'd love for you to share it with your friends, family, or anyone who could use a little more joy and positivity in their life.

Buckle-up. It's about to get even deeper today. Yep. I am in full-blown coach mode as I bring you through 2 “mandatory” sections of your Annual Strategic Plan. First, I want to help coach you to create your most extraordinary 2025 ever. That's going to include forecasting and envisioning what you will think, dream, create, and manifest in this New Year. Additionally, I will challenge you to think even bigger for your “BIG 5” for 2025 and ask you your “WHY” as it relates to your theme. And then I'm also going to talk about something even bigger: your LIFE. Yep. I'm not going to dance around it. I'm going to challenge you to eliminate any limiting beliefs or a scarcity mindset that could rob you of ultimately achieving what you desire…and ultimately from you BEING the person you most want to be. This will not only include coaching you through your “BIG 5” for life, this will include you writing your “tombstone statement” and reverse-engineering your life backwards. Yes, this episode is a “game-changer.” Heck, it's a “life-changer” if you apply the questions and take action on them. I am pumped for you to dive-in and get fired-up as we frame-up 2025 and beyond. Without further ado, let's get started. Please SHARE this episode with someone you love and would love & appreciate some more clarity, specificity, and focus on how they can maximize their IMPACT.

Are you ready to start flipping the script on 2024? As we begin to reflect and wrap-up this year, I'd like to take a moment and COACH you today. This episode is all about celebrating your wins from 2024, assessing your losses, acknowledging your lessons, and laying the groundwork for what will be an impactful year ahead. I'm sure you have had either a stellar, breakthrough year or you have faced massive challenge this year…or perhaps you've experienced a bit of both. That is exactly why I'm sharing my personal reflections, lessons, and best practices to help you finish 2024 strong also and help you set yourself up for great success in 2025. Additionally, I'll be sharing deep insights on my God-Sized Dreams System “Annual Strategic Plan” and COACH you through 11-questions to answer so that you can adequately reflect back on 2024, assess your own habits, wins, and losses, and ultimately get ready to step into 2025 with great energy and clarity. If you're ready to grow and make 2025 your most extraordinary year, this episode is the first step to do that! Key Takeaways: 1. Celebrate Your Wins: I believe it's so important to reflect on your victories, big or small, and celebrate them. In this episode, I share why it's crucial to acknowledge what you accomplished, whether personally or professionally. If you don't take time to show gratitude for the wins, the wins stop happening.  2. Appreciating Physical & Mental Health: I talk about my own health journey in 2024, especially how recovering from back issues in 2021 and 2022 has impacted my physical and mental well-being today. I'll share how fitness has been a major source of clarity and focus for me. 3. The Power of Content Creation: Creating content that resonates with others is at the heart of my mission. I'll discuss how producing podcasts, blog posts, emails, social media content and other content is a way to serve our community—and how discipline in content creation has been a core part of my success. 4. Managing Bad Habits: No one's perfect, and I certainly have my own bad habits! I reflect on areas I've struggled with in 2024, such as not reading as much as I wanted to and not taking enough time off. I'll talk about how important it is to learn from your habits, both good and bad, and make changes for the better. 5. Growth in Coaching & Leadership: In 2024, I became even more focused on life coaching, impacting others through IMPACT-X Performance, and helping leaders grow their businesses. I'll share some of the key lessons I've learned through coaching and how working with others has helped me grow, too. 6. Gratitude for the Journey: Gratitude is something I practice daily. In this episode, I talk about how grateful I am for the people and experiences that shaped my 2024—whether it was team, family, or you here, my podcast listeners. 7. Strategic Planning for 2025: Looking ahead, I share why it's so important to set bold, meaningful goals and create a clear vision for the future. If you want to make 2025 extraordinary, it starts with a plan, and I'll guide you through that process starting with this episode. 8. Actionable Advice for the New Year: I challenge you to make 2025 your "comeback season" whether you had a rough year or a successful one. I'm going to encourage you to evaluate your daily habits and make changes that will help you grow into the best version of yourself. Please Share Your Journey.

In this special episode, recorded in the beautiful, snowy Whitefish Lake, Montana, I dive into the powerful cycle of life and success. I reflect on the powerful cycle of growth: how good times create weakness, and tough times build strength. Life is about doing hard things and finding fulfillment in the face of challenges. Tune in for a message of resilience, purpose and facing the hard things.

I dreaded the day knowing it was coming…and it's here. Since my son Luke was in the 7th grade and he started playing Pop Warner football, I always put a “helmet note” in his helmet the night before every game. I did the same thing with my son Brady as well, albeit a different message. I do the same thing with what I call “Cleat Notes” for my daughter McKenna's lacrosse and soccer games now. But this weekend is my last HELMET NOTE. WOW. I've never shared a HELMET NOTE publicly…until today. 10+ years of writing notes before ALL their games. Sometimes it's a few sentences. Normally it's a few paragraphs. Every now and then it's a bit longer. Today, it's DEEP. On today's IMPACT SHOW podcast, you will hear… How my father started the tradition of “Helmet Notes” with me as a 6th-Grade Pop Warner player and the IMPACT it had on me. The frame-work of every HELMET NOTE or CLEAT NOTE. Why do “Helmet Notes” or “Cleat Notes” for your kids? My LAST HELMET NOTE. “9” Traits of Greatness. What can you do for your kids, or grand-kids, or those you coach/mentor? While this weekend will be Luke's last college football game and I'm excited to see him play, I'm also excited to drop some gems in this one that are going to serve him the rest of his life. Here we go… If you enjoy today's podcast and found value in it, can you please SHARE IT with someone who will benefit also. Maybe it's your kids who now have kids themselves and want to start a tradition. Or maybe it's a coach or trainer who wants to start a tradition like this for their student-athletes, knowing this is a great way to drop in wisdom to their kid. Either way, please SHARE IT NOW or post on your social media. Please tag me at: IG: @ToddDurkin #HelmetNote #Parenting #Mentoring #MyLastHelmetNote #ToddDurkin #IMPACTShow #Podcast

This simple but effective practice is perfect for those moments when you need to reset, calm the mind, or find a moment of clarity. I'll guide you through a session so you can feel the effects firsthand, whether you're starting your day, managing stress, or winding down.Join me as we breathe, hold, and release together—helping you recenter and recharge, one breath at a time.

What a fun episode today as I got the opportunity to sit down and chop it up with 3-young college interns from Fitness Quest 10 and their Director (Ryan Rogers). It was awesome to have an open conversation on all things on their mind and how I can help them on their journey in health, fitness, & coaching. They asked some very thought-provoking questions that lead to deep reflections and deep answers. Here are the questions that the 3 interns (Larry Hando, Max Jackson, and Ian Castillo) asked Ryan Rogers and I on today's IMPACT SHOW podcast: 1. "What was the moment that you knew you wanted to go into fitness & motivational speaking and what has made you stay on this path?" 2. "How do you find the balance between personal life and your passion for fitness and helping people?" 3. “How do you keep your mind right through the pain & struggle you have had to endure?" 4. “When you're in your dark times, or you fail, or you feel guilty about something, how do you process that and get through it?” 5. "How do you keep your ego in check when working with both high-level athletes and everyday clients? How do you stay humble and treat everyone equally?" 6. "What's the most fulfilling part of your work and how do you stay motivated after years of coaching?" 7. “What advice do you have for young coaches or trainers just starting out in the industry?" 8. “In 24-years of Fitness Quest 10, what were your fondest memories and most special experiences, accolades, or events?” Man, did I love this conversation. Some of the macro-themes centered around topics such as… The power of SHOWING-UP. The concept of “Be Humble…Be Hungry” and how that relates these days. The importance of building relationships and the right network, as this lends to your community that you are part of. How to deal with physical pain, loss, failure, and challenge…and how they ultimately can serve as catalysts for growth also. Building a career with Purpose and the elements it requires to do so over years and decades. The Beauty of the Beginning, when there were no frills and just hard work, dedication, and a driving vision to help people. Wisdom & advice for New Coaches & Trainers. MAN!! This was such a fun episode and it was so great getting to connect with these young interns who are eager to learn and grow in the fitness industry. Their questions reminded of the power of consistency, the importance of showing up, and the incredible impact coaching can have on someone. While the road to success can often be tough, filled with challenges and even pain, it's in those very moments that we experience the most growth. Keep growing…and keep going! Thanks for listening.

In this episode, we dive into the truth that your happiness and success are not determined by who's in office. It's an inside job—your responsibility to cultivate joy, peace, and fulfillment, regardless of external outcomes. Whether your candidate wins or loses, you have the power to shape your mindset and create the life and IMPACT you want. Tune in for insights on how to stay grounded, focused, and empowered, no matter the political climate. At the end of the day, it's all going to be okay. 

It's a BIG week.

I'm sitting on the banks of Lake Norman, NC, as I record this and I'm feeling especially sentimental and emotional. There are several reasons why, but none more than the fact that my Mom, “Muffy” Durkin, is aging and she turns 92-years old this week. She's down in Florida resting-up and I want to celebrate her with all of you in my podcast community. As a matter of fact, I want to dedicate this episode to her today.    My family has been spending a lot of time down in FL the last several months as she needs round the clock health care. Well, I've shared before that Mom has not thrown out too much sentimental stuff over the years (remember, I've also shared that's where I received this bad “pack-rat gene” from) and I've joked that it will someday come in handy. Today is ONE of those days…    Here is what I share in this week's episode: A birthday letter I wrote to my Mom in 1986 (when I was just 15-years old). 4-special traits I want to share about Momma Durkin. Why it's important to know “You're Day is Coming.” WOW Book Chapter #10.  The best thing Momma Durkin ever did for me and my family.  ACTION Steps to take to become an even better parent, coach, mentor, or friend.  What are a few of your fondest memories of your Mom…and/or your Dad? What traits do/did they have that you most admire? How do you best exhibit those traits now as a parent (or as a mentor, friend, or colleague)? How can you even better display these traits, characteristics, and commitment? A “fitting” close to the episode from one of my favorite conversations with her a few years back.    It was an emotional episode. Thanks for celebrating Momma Durkin with me and I hope it spurs you into taking action into becoming an even better parent, coach, mentor, or friend.    If you enjoy this episode, please give us a 5-star rating and write a review.

In this powerful episode, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Janelle Trujillo, a dedicated health-habit coach with an inspiring story. Together, we explored the significance of self-reflection, the impact of surrounding ourselves with positive energy continuously, and the essential role healthy habits play in achieving overall well-being. Janelle shared her transformative journey from overcoming personal challenges to becoming a coach who now empowers many others.    I invite you to tune in to Episode 389 of the IMPACT SHOW for powerful insights on nurturing your spirit, cultivating healthy habits, and creating a meaningful IMPACT in your life and the lives of those around you. Here are some Key Takeaways and Janelle's Top 6 Life-Habits Tips: 1. Assess Your Energy: I encourage you to reflect on what you allow into your life. Are those influences enhancing your light or dimming it? Janelle emphasizes the importance of self-awareness and surrounding yourself with ongoing positivity.   2. The Value of Seeking Support: I ask Janelle what advice she would give to her younger self, prompting her to share the importance of reaching out for help. Janelle inspires young people, especially women, to use their voices and seek guidance from trusted mentors and friends.   3. Build Healthy Habits: Success in fitness and wellness isn't just about having a good body, or even eating right, and it's not just about having the right plan; it's about making ALl this a part of your daily lifestyle. Consistency is key if you want to be healthy, vibrant, and happy!   4. Empower Young Women: Janelle shares heartfelt advice for teenage girls navigating societal pressures, reminding them to find their voices and seek wisdom.    5. Spiritual Grounding: A lot of people don't like to talk about the spiritual battle young people face, and Janelle encourages seeking wisdom and grounding in your values and spiritual faith to help navigate life's challenges.   6. Coaching for Impact: Janelle highlights her mission as a coach to be a Lighthouse for others, helping them discover their paths and purposes while overcoming their struggles. I ask her what "IMPACT" means to her, and she beautifully describes it as helping others find their way.   WOW, what a powerful episode! Janelle's journey from facing personal struggles to becoming a beacon of hope for others is truly inspiring. Her insights on self-reflection, the importance of seeking support, and building healthy habits resonate deeply, especially for young women navigating the complexities of life. It's a reminder that we're not alone in our challenges and that reaching out for help can lead to profound transformations. I hope this episode inspires you to reflect on your own habits, seek wisdom, and step boldly into your journey. Remember, you have the power to create a positive impact in your life and the lives of others. Let's continue to uplift and empower each other as we strive for growth and purpose!   If you enjoy this episode, please share it with your family, friends, and colleagues.

  I was introduced to the Theragun (percussive vibrational product) when I was filming NBC STRONG back in 2015 and it about saved my life. Seriously. It was one of those moments where you say to yourself, “Man, I wish I had thought of this and invented it.” Well, it wasn't long after that I met the founder of the Theragun and the parent company, Therabody, Dr. Jason Wersland.    Dr. Jason Wersland is an inspirational man who has had decades of big highs and devastating lows. He is a chiropractor and healer by trade and his entrepreneurial pursuits have been paved with personal and professional challenges such as bankruptcy, divorce, and great loss. And he's had some extraordinary wins and he's on a mission to IMPACT millions of people positively. He shares it all on today's podcast filled with great wisdom, soul, and impact.    Here is some of what we discuss on today's IMPACT SHOW: PROFESSIONAL: You're a chiro by trade. How did you come to create the Theragun? And when was that… 2015 & 2016. STRONG. I got introduced to Theragun and fell in love with it. Where was the company at then? 9-years later, tell us about where Therabody is at NOW? What's your vision of Therabody for the next 3-5 years? What are 5-7 of your TOP LESSONS learned as an entrepreneur? If there is one thing you could do over, what is it? Managing growth. Did you grow too slow…too fast. Looking back, what did you DO WELL…what didn't you do so well? Where do you see the brick & mortar “Recovery & Wellness” space going?  You personally and Therabody have been playing a BIG PART in the “Recovery” pillar of the IMPACT-X Performance fitness & coaching franchise. We are really excited about this relationship. Tell our listeners what we are doing in that “Recovery” space and what most excites you about this relationship?     PERSONAL: You have had one heckuva entrepreneurial journey. I'm sure it has taken its toll in some areas of your life. What has been the hardest part of it all? What are 3-5 of your TOP HABITS as a busy professional that keep you sane.  What is your “divine uniqueness” or your “super power”? What's something that you do that no one knows that helps you be YOU. Your brother. You lost him several years back. How did you get through that most difficult period of your life? What one thing am I NOT asking you that you wish I did. Legacy. Life a life worth telling a story about…what's your story? Your life. Your legacy. What do you want them to say about your life someday…   WOW. What an episode. The wisdom and “war-scars” behind Dr Jason is evident. You can literally feel his authenticity, drive, and mission to change the world and “be in the home of every American.”  That to me is IMPACT!   If you can do us a favor please and share this episode with your family, colleagues, and entrepreneur-friends today.

What are you MOST excited within these pillars? Which one of these pillars do you believe has the most growth opportunities? If you could look in a crystal ball or prognosticate the future, what is your vision of the future for your IXP? Where will you be in 5-10 years? Can you talk about the resources, mentorship, and guidance you've received throughout this journey of opening up an IMPACT-X Performance? You are leading the charge at IXP with long-time colleague and fitness industry standout Amanda Mittleman. Talk about that… As a leader (both at CHOC & IXP), what are Andrew Ruiz's TOP 5 LEADERSHIP Principles?

Lots going on these days. What are 3-5 of your TOP HABITS as a busy professional that's keeping you sane.  WHY are YOU doing all this? BE THE LIGHT.

Who's fired-up and what's on YOUR mind? Today, we are going out to one of my favorite speaking engagements of the entire year for the podcast. I recently went over to my great friend and mentor Pastor David Jeremiah's school and delivered a chapel service to over 1,000 kids. The chapel at Christian Unified schools was revitalized over 7-years ago when Pastor Jeremiah breathed new life into it. It has since become a weekly highlight for the kids. I've been honored to speak at chapel 2x per year for the last 7-years and I love connecting with these kids and bringing some energy, inspiration, and faith-messaging to them. This one is called “What's On Your Mind” and I think you are going to like it. Without further ado, here are the 5 things I talked about at chapel: MINDSET over matter. FAITH over fear. STRENGTH over weakness. WORSHIP over worry. LIGHT over darkness. The kids were enthusiastic, energized, and no doubt LOCKED-IN. Be sure to listen-in and let us know what you think. If it speaks to you, please share this episode with a friend, family member, or on your social media.

This is one of the wildest podcast episodes you will ever hear. Tamer Elnoury is the first Muslim FBI agent to go public about the agency's undercover war on terror. Tamer spent nearly two decades infiltrating and thwarting the most dangerous Al-Qaeda and ISIS terror cells in the United States and around the world. As a matter of fact, Tamer helped thwart several post “9-11” attempts and literally has some of the most unbelievable stories you will ever hear or could possibly imagine. Just LISTEN in today and be mesmerized by this man's career and what he has done. WOW!   Here are some of the questions that Tamer Elnoury and I discussed on the IMPACT SHOW: One of your undercover techniques is letting the “target” choose you. Why is that so important, and how difficult is it to get the target to “choose” you sometimes? How does a covert counter-terrorism operation come to be and what exactly was your role? How did you get recruited to be part of this task force? What was the hardest part about your job? How important are the teams you work with?  What was your method for getting into character when about to go undercover each time? How long did it take him? How long were you undercover for each time you would go over to the Middle East?  The story of the “American Sleeper” that you talk about at the end of the “60 Minutes” episode. Do you still think the “American Sleeper” is in the US and do you still wonder if you would have found him if you stayed in the FBI?  Did you ever think your cover was blown?  Did your family know why you were away when you were undercover?  How many alias' did you actually have undercover?  Why did you write the book, American Radical? Visit www.AmericanRadical.com for more information.  6-pillars from TD that summarize Tamer Elnoury's career.   WOW. You talk about IMPACT and legacy. What a crazy story that has positively impacted (and SAVED!) thousands of lives.

He was trained to become a weapon against terrorism, political corruption and drug trafficking organizations. Elnoury began his career in law enforcement in 1995 after graduating college with a Bachelor of Science degree in Criminal Justice.  After a brief stint with a fugitive task force, Elnoury began working undercover narcotics.  During his twelve years there, Elnoury worked on over 2,500 narcotics investigations in addition to working undercover in several other cases including political corruption, gun trafficking, and child abuse.  In 2008, Elnoury began working with the Federal Bureau of Investigation and shortly thereafter transferred to an elite, covert unit within the Federal Bureau of Investigation focused on counter terrorism undercover operations.  He has worked cases all over the world for multiple government agencies.  Later in his career, Elnoury became an executive in law enforcement who oversaw law enforcement and intelligence operations. Elnoury retired from government work in January of 2023 and is currently consulting and doing speaking engagements.
