  • 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…

This truly is the time when champions rise-up & take care of business. But the podcast this week is NOT just about football.

    • HEALTH & HABITS. 5 actionable-strategies to prepare your mind & body to perform like a Super Bowl MVP.

    • What habit(s) do you need to commit to that will help your achieve an “MVP Routine.”

    • BUSINESS & LEADERSHIP. What does championship leadership look like and top lessons from successful teams.

    • 6-important traits of leadership that often go unnoticed but so important in “winning.”

    • PERSONAL. 4 “Super Bowl” moments in my life (not football).

    • 3 authentic lessons about leadership, winning, and LIFE.

  • 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.

  • It’s officially ON. It’s 2025 and the thermostat about to get raised.
    Buckle-up. Welcome to the first official podcast of 2025—one that is surely going to light your pants on fire (that’s a good thing!). Today, we have flipped the script and Todd is being interviewed by teammate Rebecca Garity-Pinto on all things “Success, Significance, & IMPACT” and what’s coming down the pike here in 2025.

    Here are some of the questions Rebecca asked Todd in the episode:

    3. What do you think it takes to be a great coach? And what do you believe to be the power of coaching?
    4. SPEAKING. You talk about keynote speaking a lot. What do love most about keynote speaking & motivational speaking and WHO do you love speaking to?
    5. IXP. IMPACT-X Performance. It certainly has been a huge focus of yours since announcing that in May 2024. Not even one-year ago. Updates? How is it doing? What are your goals for 2025 with IMPACT-X Performance (IXP)?
    6. You give so much and seem to never stop, where do you get your motivation and inspiration from these days?

    7. You're obviously not just a coach or a motivational speaker or business owner… you’re the energy guy and are known for your motivational speeches. How do you suggest people to STAY motivated throughout the year on their goals?

    8. You also talk a lot about your mentors in life, as a young boy your dad and coach Wolf, as an adult Wayne Cotton, Pastor Miles McPherson and Pastor Jeremiah. Can you share some of the wisdom and lessons passed on to you that have impacted your life?

    9. Who is one person (your big dream) you want to interview and have on the IMPACT show who would that be and why.

    10. You are an elite Coach, Keynote speaker, author of 5 books with another on the way, have a new fitness franchise (IXP), and run a long time (17+ years) Fit Pro Mastermind. How do you balance all of this?
    11. You have been married for almost 24 years to your wife Melanie, what is your magic sauce?
    12. Let’s talk about Melanie, how does she best support you and how do you best support her?
    13. You talk about Montana a lot. What is your infatuation with Montana?
    14. What is the best compliment you have ever received?
    15. Final Question: Todd you often talk about IMPACT and Legacy on the show. My final question to you is what is your Legacy? What do you want to be remembered for?

    WOW. This went deep and I’m grateful for this conversation with Rebecca. I hope you enjoy it and get tremendous VALUE out of it. Thanks so much and once again, Happy New Year and get ready for a year FULL OF INSPIRATION & IMPACT! I’m more pumped than ever to serve you and be a “coach” in your life.

    Dr. Caroline Stites, CEO and Founder of VibraGenix and ReGenX Wellness Systems. Her roots started in Traditional Medicine being raised in a family of physicians. But her desire to do more than illness management with drugs and surgery, led her to NaturopathicMedicine with a Masters degree in Nutrition. From there, Caroline. became a Reiki master and took a deep dive into Eastern Medicine and then quantum physics. This gave her a very global view of medicine and led her down the path to create multiple modalities using frequency medicine to treat the frequency field of the body. Like Albert Einstein said in the 1930’s, "The future of medicine will be the medicine of frequencies. Caroline’s mission and the foundation of VibraGenix is to create a New Path to Wellness by developing Frequency Medicine technology
    that produces profoundly positive results in Longevity, Pain Relief, Weight Loss, Sports recovery, and Mental well-being. Caroline is also a proud mother of two, married to a great man, a health and fitness enthusiast, and am passionate about water and

  • 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

    Meet me at IMPACT-X Performance (Huntington Beach, CA) this Saturday (Dec 21st ) from 10am-1pm. Here is what we will do…

    Schedule of Events:

  • 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.

    planning for 2025 with a clear and actionable strategy. Overcoming Negativity: Don’t let self-doubt or outside negativity hold you
    back. You’ve got to get your mind right and surround yourself with the right

    My Annual Strategic Plan & God-Sized Dreams Bundle – [Available at
    ToddDurkin.com/gsdplanner/ or on Amazon]
  • 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. I’d love to hear how you’re applying the lessons from this episode to your own life. Snap a picture of this podcast episode, tag me on social media, and share your thoughts! I’ll repost and engage with your journey.

    Thank you so much for listening. As we wrap up 2024, I hope you take a moment to reflect, plan, and prepare for an extraordinary 2025. I’ll be back next week with a new episode where we’ll dive into setting your specific goals for 2025 and making this year your best yet.

  • As Thanksgiving approaches, my wife, Melanie and I share our hearts, our gratitude, and our excitement for the year ahead on this very special episode of the IMPACT SHOW podcast. In today's episode, we reflect on all things that we are most grateful for: favorite family Thanksgiving and holiday traditions, things we are most excited for, and our big dreams for 2025. This is one that is sure to get you into the holiday spirit and stoke some new (and old) traditions.


    What you’ll hear in today’s episode:

    Gratitude for family: Melanie shares how grateful she is to have all of our family together for the holidays after 4 years of not being all together for Thanksgiving. I also share how much I appreciate Melanie’s unwavering support over the years, especially during the busy seasons of growth for our business and coaching programs. The joy of Thanksgiving: We reflect on the significance of Thanksgiving and how powerful it is to be grateful for family, health, and the opportunities before us. Big dreams for 2025: I share some of my excitement about my 2025 plans, including continued growth with IMPACT-X Performance, a new writing project, and my deep dive into the Annual Strategic Plan. Melanie also reveals her goals & dreams for the upcoming year, including finishing her life-coaching certification and planning some major upcoming family celebrations. Celebrating milestones: With Luke’s college graduation on the horizon and our 25th wedding anniversary coming up, we reflect on how quickly time passes and how grateful we are for the milestones that make life so meaningful. Personal and professional growth: Both Melanie and I share some of our top lessons of 2025, how we're continuing to grow both personally and professionally, and what fuels our passion as we head into 2025.

    We want to encourage everyone to take time this Thanksgiving to reflect on what you're
    most grateful for and to end 2024 strong and start preparing for 2025 with clear goals
    and excitement. It’s the perfect time to look ahead, feel inspired, and create an impact in

  • 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.

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. If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to leave a
    review and share it with others who might benefit from these insights.
    I'd love to hear your thoughts and how you’re applying the lessons
    from this episode in your own life.
