    The Work Nobody Sees That Builds Your Greatest Life | Ep. 495 (LABOR Day Week!)

    In this special "Labor Day Week" episode of The IMPACT SHOW Podcast, we are stepping back for the first 2-minutes of the Show as I dedicate yet another "Laaaabbboooorrrr Day" speech in honor of my mentor, the venerable late great high school football coach from Brick, NJ, Coach Warren H. Wolf. It's always a crowd favorite and has true deep meaning about the benefits of having a blue-collar work ethic, dedication, belief, overcoming adversity, and the desire to work hard. Enjoy! For the rest of the Show, I'm spitting some fire about what it REALLY takes to build something great. The early mornings. The boring reps. The setbacks. The failures. The sacrifices. The patience. The belief. And most importantly, the willingness to keep going when nobody is clapping for you. I'm also sharing 5 powerful lessons on why hard work builds character before it builds results, why you can't microwave greatness, why belief without labor is just a wish, and why the greatest payoff isn't always what you get—it's who you become along the way.  IN THIS EPISODE, YOU'LL HEAR:  Why the work nobody sees is often the work that matters most—the 5 a.m.'s, the missed weekends, the boring reps, the setbacks, and the decisions to keep going. How hard work builds CHARACTER before it builds RESULTS—discipline, patience, resilience, confidence, humility, and mental toughness. Why patience is one of the hardest parts of the process and why so many people quit right before things begin to change. Why you can't microwave greatness. Some dreams take months. Some take years. Some take decades. Keep planting. Keep watering. Keep believing. Why belief + labor is a powerful combination—because your belief gives you the vision, but your work gives you the vehicle to get there. What it really means to "roll up your sleeves and get dirty"—getting in the arena, doing the reps, making the calls, having the hard conversations, serving your people, and taking action. Why the boring work is often the most important work. Greatness is repetitive. It's the fundamentals, the standards, the morning routines, and the commitment to keep showing up. How to use failure instead of wasting it—because rejection, mistakes, losses, and setbacks are all part of the labor. Why you need to stop comparing your chapter 3 to someone else's chapter 20. You don't know their story, their sacrifice, their pain, or the years they spent building when nobody cared. Why the greatest reward of hard work isn't simply what you get—it's WHO YOU BECOME along the way. How to keep going when nobody is clapping for you and trust that consistency has a funny way of revealing what you're capable of creating. Here's your reminder today: YOUR DREAM IS WORTH THE WORK. YOUR DREAM IS WORTH THE LABOR. Maybe you're building your body. Maybe you're building a business. Maybe you're raising your kids, strengthening your marriage, deepening your faith, or chasing a dream that still feels a LONG way away. Whatever season you're in, KEEP GOING. KEEP SHOWING UP. KEEP BELIEVING. KEEP DOING THE WORK. One day, people may look at your life and call it a success. They'll see the body, the business, the family, the impact, the dream. But YOU will know the truth. You built it when nobody else was watching. So roll up your sleeves. Get in the arena. Get dirty. Trust God. Stay patient. And keep laboring. Because the greatest reward isn't simply what you accomplish. It's who you become along the way.

    Your Words Matter: 5 Ways Your Words Shape Your Life, Leadership & Legacy | Ep. 494

    What if the words you speak every single day are shaping the person you're becoming? Guess what? They are! The words you repeat to yourself become ingrained beliefs. Your beliefs influence your actions and your actions ultimately shape your results. Too many of us unknowingly sabotage our own success with negative self-talk: I'm exhausted. I'm not good enough. I can't do this. I'm too old. I'll never change. In this episode of The Todd Durkin IMPACT SHOW, I'm breaking down why your words matter so much—and how becoming radically intentional with your words can change your mindset, your relationships, your leadership, and ultimately your impact. In This Episode, You'll Learn: Why your words shape your identity and how the things you repeatedly say eventually influence what you believe about yourself. How to flip negative self-talk and replace limiting language with words that build confidence, courage, faith, and possibility. Why your words reveal what's in your heart and how your vocabulary can become a powerful "heart check." How your words create culture at your business, gym, team, locker room, and—most importantly—at home. The incredible power of speaking life into someone else and why one sentence from a coach, parent, teacher, or leader can stay with someone for decades. Why your words become part of your legacy and how people will remember not only what you accomplished, but how you made them feel. How your environment impacts the way you think and speak, including the people you surround yourself with, what you watch, read, and consume. The power of "I AM" statements and why writing, reading, and speaking your declarations out loud can reinforce the identity you want to become. The 40–70 Rule and why waiting until you have 100% certainty can keep you stuck instead of taking action and creating momentum. My 7-Day "Speak Life" Challenge designed to help you become more intentional withyour words and positively impact the people around you. Your words are more powerful than you may realize. Your kids are listening. Your spouse is listening. Your team is listening. Your friends are listening. And most importantly…YOU are listening. So what would change in your life if you became radically intentional about the words you speak? This week, I challenge you to speak life over yourself, encourage someone who needs it, tell someone you love them, catch yourself before criticizing others, and speak one sentence of faith over your future. Don't just listen to this episode—TAKE ACTION. Clean up your words. Change your thinking. Speak life. Speak truth. Speak love. And let's use our words to BUILD, LEAD, GROW, and MULTIPLY IMPACT. Listen now, share this episode with someone who needs to hear it, and then go put these words into ACTION! I hope you enjoyed today's episode. If it fired you up to create more IMPACT—please do me a favor and do 1 (or all 3) of the following things: 1.

    Meet My 1st Intern Class at IXP: Asking the Questions You've Always Wanted to Ask | Ep. 493

    This is a conversation with a special group of young professionals that I really enjoyed working with. This week on The IMPACT SHOW, I sat down with the very FIRST class of interns at IMPACT-X Performance—Briseyda, Ernesto, and Jacob—and let them fire away with whatever questions they had. And MAN… they brought the heat! From building a world-class culture and creating exceptional customer experiences, to finding your purpose, learning from mistakes, balancing family and business, pursuing a career in athletic performance, and even navigating AI and the future of coaching, this conversation went DEEP. These 3 interns have been part of history at IMPACT-X Performance as they've been with me almost since the beginning. I was fired-up to answer their questions and share some of the lessons and wisdom that came out of this experience. In This Episode, You'll Hear: Why culture is everything — and how you build a culture that people can FEEL the moment they walk through the doors. The truth about work-life balance — why I don't necessarily believe in "balance" and instead think about life as an orchestra that requires constant adjustment. The biggest mistakes I've made in nearly 30 years in the fitness industry — including trusting your gut, making decisions based solely on money, trying to do too much, and failing to surround yourself with the right people. Why your passion and purpose matter — and why financial success should be an outcome of doing meaningful work, not the only reason you do it. The power of mentorship — why you NEVER outgrow having a mentor and how the right people can help guide your path and accelerate your growth. Creating an exceptional customer experience — why it's never about you, your accolades, or your credentials… it's about THEM. What it takes to become a great athletic performance coach — from starting with youth athletes to mastering communication, building experience, and learning to speak the language of the sport. Why communication may be your most important coaching skill — and how learning to communicate with a 10-year-old can make you a better coach at every level. The difference between being a "life coach" and actually BEING a coach — and why experience, education, emotional intelligence, and a deep commitment to helping people matter. How physical training can evolve into life coaching — and why changing the body and changing the mind are so deeply connected. What I look for when building a team — credentials matter, but HEART, character, people skills, work ethic, and a genuine desire to change lives matter even more. Why you need to build a CAREER, not just get a job — and the vision behind creating opportunities that can take someone from intern to trainer, leader, business owner, and beyond. How I recharge and stay grounded — including "mellow yellow time," getting outside, breathwork, prayer, and remembering WHY I'm doing what I'm doing. The role of technology and AI in the fitness industry — and why technology should enhance the human experience, never replace the heart and soul behind it. The one word I want to be remembered for — IMPACT. What my younger self would tell me today — and why believing, serving, and continuing to be a difference-maker matters through every season of life. This episode is a reminder that success isn't built overnight. It's built through experience, mistakes, mentors, relationships, relentless learning, and a commitment to serving people at the highest level possible. Whether you're a young trainer just getting started, a seasoned entrepreneur, a coach, a parent, or simply someone trying to figure out your next chapter, there's something in this conversation for YOU. My challenge is simple: get your mind right, find your purpose, surround yourself with great people, keep learning, and never stop looking for ways to make an IMPACT. If this episode speaks to you, don't keep it to yourself! Share it with a coach, trainer, entrepreneur, friend, or someone who needs to hear these lessons.

    A Chat with McKenna Durkin — Hard Work, Big Dreams & Preparing to Fly | Ep. 492

    For the final episode of our three-part Durkin family trilogy, I'm sitting down with my youngest child, McKenna Durkin, just before she leaves home to begin a brand-new chapter at High Point University (NC). This conversation is special—not only because I get to hear directly from McKenna about her dreams, goals, fears, and excitement for college and Division I lacrosse, but because we also get to flip the script and let her interview me. We talk about the value of hard work, discipline, mindset, controlling the controllables, limiting distractions, the power of networking, and what it really means to believe in yourself when you're stepping into something bigger than anything you've experienced before. As a Dad, this episode is a reminder that raising kids is ultimately about preparing them to spread their wings, chase their dreams, and become who they were created to be. In This Episode, You'll Hear: McKenna's move to High Point University and why she's so excited for this next chapter. What it takes to prepare for the next level of Division I lacrosse—and why "controlling the controllables" matters. The training, recovery, nutrition, sleep, and discipline McKenna has prioritized this summer. Why your environment matters and how the people and places around you can shape who you become. McKenna's approach to nutrition, including whole foods, protein, fruits, vegetables, and enjoying a healthy sweet treat. Why McKenna is choosing to study Exercise Science and her current dream of becoming a physician's assistant. The importance of using college as a time to explore, learn, and discover what you truly love to do. McKenna's biggest excitement—and biggest challenges—as she prepares to leave home and figure things out on her own. Her dreams for the future, including building a career she loves and someday having a lake house. Why some of the best family memories aren't the big trips, but the ordinary moments spent together. The Durkin family's special connection to Whitefish, Montana, and the importance of unplugging, slowing down, and creating quality family time. McKenna flipping the script and asking me some powerful questions—including the one lesson he hopes she has learned from watching me. Why hard work, grit, discipline, and believing in yourself are essential to reaching your goals. How to handle self-doubt when you're surrounded by people who are talented, accomplished, and competing at a high level. The power of focusing on the process instead of putting pressure on yourself to achieve a specific result. Todd's perspective on raising a daughter and the unique bond, love, pride, and protection that comes with being a dad to a girl. Why limiting distractions—especially social media—is critical when you're trying to accomplish something meaningful. The incredible power of networking and why "your network is your net worth." Todd's advice for McKenna as she heads off to college: come home, stay connected, keep getting better, and enjoy the process. A powerful reminder from Proverbs 22 about training a child in the way they should go—and then giving them the freedom to grow and spread their wings. There's something incredibly powerful about watching your kids grow up, develop their own dreams, and step into a future you know you can't completely control. McKenna is about to leave the nest, and while there's certainly some emotion that comes with that, there's also an incredible amount of pride and excitement. My job as a father has never been to create a life for my kids—it's been to equip them with the values, discipline, faith, work ethic, and confidence to go create their own. McKenna, I am so proud of you. Go chase the dream. Go compete. Go learn. Go build relationships. Go get better every single day. And most importantly, enjoy the PROCESS of becoming the woman you're meant to be. The next chapter is just beginning—and I can't wait to watch you spread your wings and create your IMPACT.

    A Chat with Brady Durkin--Storytelling, Creativity & Chasing God-Sized Dreams | Ep. 491

    What a special month this has been thus far! Last week, you got to meet my oldest son, Luke. This week, I'm sitting down with my middle son, Brady Durkin, and I can't wait for you to hear this conversation. Brady is entering his senior year at High Point University (NC), pursuing his passion for media production, film, and storytelling. But this episode goes way beyond cameras, movies, and books. It's about purpose. It's about discipline. It's about creating something that matters. I's about learning to stay present while chasing big dreams. As Melanie and I prepare to become empty nesters, these conversations with my kids have become even more meaningful, and I pray they encourage you as much as they've inspired me. In true IMPACT SHOW podcast fashion, we flip the script halfway through the episode, and Brady turns the microphone around to interview me with some deep, thought-provoking questions. Let's just say...he definitely didn't go easy on his dad! In this episode, you'll hear: Why Brady believes stories have the power to change lives How and why he's pursuing a career in film production and creative storytelling The incredible experience of working behind the scenes on the upcoming Christmas film All That Glitters at Christmas Lessons learned from director Paul Joyner about servant leadership and caring for people The story behind Brady's first novel, Lesser, and what inspired him to write over 70,000 words while balancing college life Why consistency—not perfection—is the key to accomplishing big dreams The importance of staying present instead of constantly worrying about the future How discipline is built one day, one decision, and one small win at a time Brady's vision for graduate school, filmmaking, and creating stories that leave a lasting impact Our favorite family memories—from Disneyland to Europe—and why those moments matter more than ever Brady's honest questions for me about regrets, work-life balance, coaching, leadership, and dreaming big My advice for young leaders about networking, taking action, and putting your work out into the world before it's "perfect" Why your purpose is discovered by doing—not waiting One of the things I admire most about Brady is that he's never been afraid to walk his own path. He's a deep thinker, an incredible storyteller, and someone who genuinely wants to use his gifts to make people better. Whether it's through film, writing, or simply serving the people around him, I believe God has incredible things in store for him. As you listen today, I hope you're reminded that your dreams do matter—but so does today's work. Stay faithful to the process. Stay present. Keep showing up. And don't be afraid to create the thing that's been stirring in your heart. You never know how God will use it. If this episode encouraged you, would you please do me a favor?

    A Chat with Luke Durkin…Life, Law School, and What's Next | Ep. 490

    This month, I'm bringing my family onto the IMPACT SHOW Podcast and we're kicking it off with my oldest son, Luke Durkin. At 23 years old, Luke just completed his first year in law school at the University of South Carolina, after he had a successful 4-year career as a student-athlete at Davidson College (NC) and participated as an ROTC (Army) student. To say he is building a life rooted in discipline, faith, purpose, and hard work is an understatement. As we prepare to head to Canton, Ohio, this week for Drew Brees' NFL Hall of Fame induction, Luke and I sat down for one of the deeper conversations we've had in a long time. We talk about what it takes to stay disciplined, how adversity shapes your future, why being present matters more than chasing "what's next." We then turn the tables when Luke interviews me about IMPACT-X Performance, becoming an empty nester, and the lessons I'd give my 23-year-old self. Whether you're a parent, athlete, student, entrepreneur, or simply someone striving to become your best, I hope this conversation is going to encourage you, challenge you, and inspire you. In this episode, you'll hear: Why discipline—not motivation—is the foundation for long-term success. The biggest lessons Luke learned during his first year of law school. How football prepared him for life, leadership, and handling adversity. Why staying present is one of the greatest challenges in today's world. How jiu-jitsu has become a powerful mental reset and stress reliever for Luke. The importance of surrounding yourself with people who push you to grow. What setbacks in college football taught Luke about finding his true calling. Why your hardest seasons often become the greatest preparation for your future. A behind-the-scenes look at building IMPACT-X Performance from the ground up. The difference between recreating success and creating something even greater. My thoughts on becoming an empty nester and embracing life's next chapter. The advice I'd give every young person—and my 23-year-old self—about time, purpose, and living with intention. Why family, faith, and meaningful relationships will always matter more than achievement alone. This conversation reminded me that success isn't just measured by titles, careers, or accomplishments. It's measured by the person you're becoming along the way. Watching Luke grow into the man he is today has been one of the greatest blessings of my life and I hope this episode reminds you to embrace your own journey, stay present, keep showing up with discipline, and never lose sight of what matters most. Take a moment today to appreciate the people in your life, invest in the relationships that matter, and continue becoming the person God has called you to be. If this episode encourages you, please share it with a family member, colleague, co-worker, or friend who needs it. Additionally, please make sure you're subscribed so you don't miss a single episode (including my son Brady's episode next week and my daughter McKenna's episode the following week).

    Saints in San Diego--6 Championship Lessons from the New Orleans Saints That Apply to Your Life | Ep. 489

    Last week was one I'll never forget. We had the privilege of hosting the New Orleans Saints here at IMPACT-X Performance in San Diego for an incredible week of training, recovery, fieldwork, and brotherhood. Watching these young men prepare for an NFL season reminded me of something that applies to every single one of us—whether you're an athlete, entrepreneur, coach, parent, leader, or simply someone committed to becoming your best…it takes meticulous effort, coaching, hard-work, attention to detail, and big aspirations and visions to attain your wildest dreams. So here's my question to you: What if the difference between where you are today and where you're meant to be isn't more talent...but a better mindset, greater discipline, even more attention to the little things, and having the right environment and the right coaching around you to help you attain your dreams? Here's the truth: Greatness isn't reserved just for the gifted. It's earned in the habits, the details, the preparation, and the mindset you bring every single day. So you gotta bring it! Without further ado, let's dive into what was an unforgettable week with the Saints last week. In this episode, you'll learn: Why there is always another level, no matter how successful or experienced you are. How your body language and engagement reveal your leadership before you ever say a word. Why attention to detail separates good from truly great—and how the little things build championship cultures. The critical role recovery plays in sustaining high performance, energy, and longevity and what are some of the top recovery protocols. Why you can only do so much physical work—and how visualization, preparation, and mental reps create elite performers. Why mindset matters more than ever and practical ways to "Get Your Mind Right" when life tries to knock you off course. How the habits of NFL athletes can directly impact your business, career, relationships, leadership, and everyday life. Why surrounding yourself with the right people can give you the "juice" you need to keep going when the battle gets hard. No matter what season you're in, I hope one of these lessons hits you exactly where you need it. Maybe it's a reminder to pay more attention to the details. Maybe it's prioritizing your recovery. Maybe it's simply choosing to show up with better energy. Or maybe it's hearing, once again, that your battle isn't happening to you—it's preparing you for the blessing that's on the other side. And if nothing else, I believe you're going to get some "juice" from this episode. So enjoy it! If today's episode encouraged you, inspired you, or challenged you to raise your standard, would you do me a favor?

    Why I Still Do Personal Training and Why You Must Stay Connected to Your Calling | Ep. 488

    What if the very thing you're trying to grow beyond is actually the thing God created you to do? Lately, I've been getting the same question over and over again: "Todd, with everything you've got going on—gyms, franchises, masterminds, speaking, books, coaching executives... why are you still personally training clients" It's a fair question. This week, after spending every morning training the New Orleans Saints and then coaching everyone from NFL athletes to men and women in their 60s and 70s, the answer became crystal clear. Coaching isn't simply something I do... it's who I am. It's part of my calling. It's one of the purest ways I can serve others and honor the gifts God has given me. Whether it's personal training 1:1, coaching a small-group or large-group training session, or leading a retreat or live-event, I LOVE coaching! And maybe that's the question you need to ask yourself today. Not, "What do I do?" but, "Who am I?" Because when you discover your divine uniqueness and stay obedient to it, everything changes. Success isn't about drifting away from the work that made you come alive. It's about continually finding ways to live inside your calling, no matter what season you're in. In this week's episode of The IMPACT SHOW Podcast, I';m sharing my heart on why I'll always coach, why human connection matters now more than ever, and how you can rediscover the work that fills your soul instead of simply filling your calendar. Here's what you'll hear in this Episode 488: Why live coaching and human connection will always be more powerful than information alone. How stepping away from your God-given gifts can quietly steal your joy and fulfillment. Why culture isn't taught—it's caught—and how great leaders build it every single day. The importance of staying connected to the work that first made you come alive. Why your "laboratory" is where your greatest lessons, breakthroughs, and leadership are developed. How to recognize the season you're in and give it everything you've got. The difference between chasing profit and pursuing purpose. Why remembering who you are matters more than what you do. How to discover your divine uniqueness and live fully inside your assignment. Three powerful questions that will help you reconnect with your calling. At the end of the day, your greatest impact won't come from trying to become someone else. It comes from fully becoming the person God created you to be. Maybe you've experienced success. Maybe you're building something new. Maybe you've gotten busy chasing the next opportunity. My challenge for you this week is simple: reconnect with the work that makes your soul come alive. The world doesn't need another imitation. It needs you operating boldly inside your calling. If this episode encouraged you, share it with someone who needs the reminder to get back to their roots and live with even greater purpose. And if you're ready to grow deeper—in your leadership, your business, your faith, or your life—I invite you to join us inside IMPACT-X Performance, one of our live events or coaching programs, or just swing-into IMPACT-X Performance San Diego for a high-five, hug, or handshake. And yes, if you are ready for some coaching yourself, my team and I are ready to SERVE YOU. Remember... when your gifts and your calling align, you don't just make a living—you create IMPACT. If this episode speaks to you, how about sharing it on your social media or in a newsletter.
