Todd Durkin IMPACT Show

Today I'm talking transformation and how to dig deep to ultimately discover your best self even when you're not feeling like yourself. Perhaps you're feeling tired, empty, exhausted, or burnt-out, or maybe you're not feeling the passion, purpose, or energy you desire. If so, then you've come to the right podcast episode.    Besides just talking about transformation, I'm featuring a man I have pers...

Man-o-man do we have a special one today! I don't even know where to start with today's description. There isn't an aspect of professional burnout, how your blessings can become burdens, or getting and keeping your mind right that Dr. Clay Whiting and I didn't discuss. And the funny thing is, we met live for the first time right before we recorded this podcast!    Dr. Clay Whiting is a Level-1 tra...

I love presenting and giving keynotes speeches, especially when they are live and in-person. And while 90% of my talks & keynotes are to a secular audience, a few times a year, I get asked to speak at a chapel service or an FCA huddle where I can share my faith. This podcast episode is from a chapel service I recently gave to about 800-kids at Christian Unified schools in San Diego, CA. While this...

You talk about "get your mind right!" Wait until you hear this one. However you are feeling right now, it doesn't compare to how amazing you will feel once you've listened to my entire conversation with Jose Flores, aka the "Mindset Disruptor." As a kid, Jose was diagnosed with a form of MS called Spinal Muscular Atrophy and was confined to a wheelchair by the time he was 15 years old. Doctors tol...

Who's fired up today? I hope so! I want to talk about two important things with you--Leadership and Energy. Last I checked, we could all use more great energy these days. And leadership is always valuable and worth discussing.    Specifically, I want to talk about the relationship between energy, leadership, business, success, and results today. Regardless of the industry, sector, or career you're...

I was recently in Whitefish, MT, and got stuck in the snow. Literally. Not only did my car skid off the road once and get "stuck in the snow," our return flight home was canceled, and we got stuck in Montana for an extra 5-days. I recorded this episode from Montana while it was about 3-degrees outside, and I was literally STUCK in the snow. I wanted to share my thoughts about what happens when lif...

It's the end of 2021. Hallelujah. What a crazy year it has been. In some ways, it has been one of the toughest ones I can remember. But, in other ways, there have been several blessings this year as well. Through the good and the "bad," there have been some great lessons learned & reinforced.    In today's episode, I go deep and share 5 thoughts & lessons with you from 2021. I think you are going...

It's amazing how quickly life can change. On Oct 7, 2018, Mike Merrigan's world changed when he was in a horrific accident that ultimately cost him his leg. Seven surgeries and 3-years later, Mike shares his story publicly for the first time right here on the IMPACT Show podcast. It's a story of perseverance, positivity, resilience, "getting your mind right," and a Never Give-Up attitude. It truly...

Gus Cheliotis is someone I've known since 2013 and is one extraordinary human being. He's a man who has turned-around multiple companies, currently manages 25 Billion dollars in assets (yes, BILLIONS!), has worked on Wall Street and he's a health & fitness freak. Additionally, Gus first "met" me through my first book called The IMPACT Body Plan (wait until you hear this story). I have spoken to hi...

Can you believe it's December and the holiday season is upon us? While this time of year is typically a bit crazy, busy, and frantic, it's also a great time to slow down, reflect, rejuvenate, and revive for the year ahead. As a matter of fact, 2022 is right around the corner and I want to help you today "get your mind right" about 2022 and all the amazing things that are about to happen in your li...

I love football. I played it from age 10-25, as I was a quarterback & punter. After playing, I have trained and coached football players (NFL, college, high school, and youth) for almost 25-years now. To say it's a passion of mine is an understatement.   Well, I recently said "YES" to a unique opportunity to be the General Manager for the local pro arena football team here in San Diego, called the...

And she's about to touch many souls and change many lives.   Jenna started following me when I was on the NBC TV show STRONG and the...

This episode is going to blow you away. For many years, I trained standout MLB catcher Nick Hundley to be the best athlete he could be. And while he played professional baseball at a very high level for 11-years, what he's doing now is even way bigger and more IMPACTFUL.   As a matter of fact, Nick's role with the International Justice Mission (IJM) is to help protect again human trafficking and v...

Does anyone else want the "aging process" to slow down? Me too! As much as I love the wisdom that comes with age, I don't love the fact that my body doesn't always feel like a young spring chicken anymore. Today's episode is all about slowing down the aging process with my good friend and entrusted colleague, Pete McCall.    Pete is an author, coach, podcaster, and he just released his new book ca...

This is a must-listen-to episode with one of my best friends in the world. I've known him since 1998, and he helped name my gym Fitness Quest 10. But, unfortunately, he is also in the fight for his life. On December 31st, 2020, Joe Pangelinan was diagnosed with Stage IV Lung Cancer. What he thought was walking pneumonia turned into his worst nightmare; a PET scan and brain MRI showed that the canc...

I'm getting a little deep on you today and talking about some things on my mind and thoughts from my heart. I am talking about dreams, leadership, frustrations, and what's next in life. Specifically, I want to talk about how dreams keep you alive, leadership in today's crazy & chaotic times, and my thoughts on the question of "What's next?"   Listen in, hear my thoughts, and then I encourage you t...

Are you addicted to productivity and sometimes feel slightly out of balance? I thought so! In today's show, we talk "balance" and about doing what matters most versus worrying about how much to get done. My guest Christy Wright, a Dave Ramsey personality, is a busy mom with three young kids, a bustling career, and she knows what it's like to be stretched too thin.     Christy redefines balance and...

Since its inception, the company has seen meteoric growth and has changed thousands of people's lives. And to think that the brand was born from a tragedy makes it even more special.    The company "BUBS" is name...

I'm fired up today for two reasons. One, today demarks episode #212, and I love the number 212. Second, and more importantly, because it's LABOR DAY! As a matter of fact, I think you will smile (maybe laugh) at this year's traditional "Laaabborrr Day" message on one of my favorite holidays.    In addition, there are 2-other parts to today's episode:   First, I share three thoughts on the value of...
