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 th...

In today's episode, we're diving into the power of the 5-5-5 breathwork technique: breathing in for 5 seconds, holding for 5, and breathing out for 5.

I'll guide you through a session so you can feel the effects firsthand, whether you're starting your day, managing st...

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 answe...

In this episode, we dive into the truth that your happiness and success are not determined by who's in office.

It's a BIG week. There is a presidential election going on, we have the Grand Opening for IMPACT-X Performance in Huntington Beach, CA, and it's Parents Weekend at Davidson College this weekend as my son Luke has only 2 football games left in his college career. A lot of CHANGE. On all levels. It seems like everyone talks about change but rarely do people embrace change. In today's episode, I talk...

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 ep...

Janelle shared her transformative journey from overcom...

  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...
