My Next Chapter Starts NOW…[New Series] | Ep. 447

Todd Durkin IMPACT Show

A few years ago I shared my Reinvention Series that was wildly popular (Ep. 301-306). It shared my 3.5 year period of going through a terribly difficult time that included a debilitating back injury, 2nd knee replacement, sleep apnea diagnosis, being burnt-out, and ultimately exiting Fitness Quest 10 from day-to-day operations. What I realize now is that it was all a setup for what is about to be NEXT. I recently made a huge decision that is setting up my next step in business & life.

Huddle up! It's halftime of 2025—and I’ve got one question for you:
Are you winning the 1st half of 2025…or are you getting your tail-kicked? And are you ready to dominate the 2nd half of 2025? If so, I have a barn-burner for you today. In Episode 432, I’m coming at you full force with a locker room style pep talk that I hope will light a fire in your soul. So whether you’re up big or you’re down 28–3 halfway through your year, we still got one full half (of the year) to play—and let’s not forget, champions are made in the 2nd half.

I’m talking real-deal coaching today:
✅ We’re assessing your first half. Wins, losses, and some lessons & AHAS.
✅ We’re making the necessary adjustments. The best coaches make great adjustments at half-time. This is your opportunity to make those strategic edits so we can dial-in the most important steps that need to be taken.
✅ Time for ACTION. It’s time to take bold, massive ACTION to finish the year on FIRE. I want us to win 2025 and this is a fire and brimstone talk to give you the strategy, confidence, courage and conviction it’s going to take to dominate the 2nd part of 2025.

Additionally, We Dive Into:

How to evaluate your scoreboard right now—regardless of whether you are you up, down, or tied?
What it means to revisit your theme and Big 5 goals for 2025
How to make the strategic halftime adjustments that are necessary (and how & why
to stop doing what’s not working)
Why momentum is EVERYTHING—and how to build it starting TODAY
3 actions you MUST take in the next 90 days to set up a 4th quarter win
A challenge that’ll hit your heart: Do you like the man or woman you’re becoming?
(If not, it’s time to change that—starting now.)

I’m letting you inside my head & heart—including some of my personal wins and losses (yep, even the tough stuff like losing my mom), what’s gone well in 2025 so far, and what I’m doubling down on in the next 6 months. And I’m inviting YOU to do the same.

Listen, the second half is where LEGENDS are made. And I want this to be your most powerful, purpose-driven, IMPACTFUL second half yet. So take a deep breath, enjoy this episode, buckle-up that chin strap… and LET’S GO!!!
