Todd Durkin IMPACT Show
We are just weeks away from opening my new IMPACT-X Performance facility in San Diego, CA. And one of the most important things from the start is creating an amazing culture. We did it at Fitness Quest 10. And we’ll do it again. In today’s episode of the IMPACT SHOW podcast, I’m going ALL-IN on why culture is the ultimate performance advantage—and why it will always outperform strategy, systems, or talent alone. This isn’t theory or buzzwords. This is real-time leadership straight from the trenches as we prepare to open IXP-San Diego from the ground...

5-Week Spiritual Reset Program (Thanksgiving → New Year’s) | Ep. 455
Todd Durkin IMPACT Show
Happy holidays. I’m pumped to share today’s podcast with you during one of the most important, spiritual, and opportunity-rich seasons of the entire year. This is the season where reflection meets revelation. Where gratitude meets growth. And where faith meets fuel. Between Thanksgiving and New Year’s, we are also given a sacred window to reflect, release, and realign with God and our many blessings. Listen, this season can be magical…but it can also be stressful, overwhelming, busy, and even emotionally heavy. And if we’re not intentional, the holidays can drain us instead...
info_outlineThis week’s IMPACT SHOW episode is something special. I’m coming to you LIVE from Christian Unified High School’s Chapel Service where I had the honor of speaking to 800+ middle and high school students. Man, I LOVE firing up the youth and speaking LIFE into the next generation. There’s nothing like the energy of a room full of young champions ready to grow, learn, and chase greatness. Regardless of age though, today’s message will most likely resonate deeply.
In this powerful chapel talk, I share a few of my favorite Words That Will Change Your Life—words that can shape your character, strengthen your faith, and fuel your dreams. We’re talking about words like:
- Integrity – Doing what’s right when no one is watching.
- Inspire – Speaking life and light into others.
- Truth – Getting into God’s Word every single day.
- Sacrifice – Giving up something now for something greater later.
- I’M-Possible – Turning the impossible into I’m possible through faith.
- Belief – Choosing to believe in God’s plan and the truth over the lies.
- Get Your Mind Right – Stacking wins daily through habits, training, and living inspired.
Whether you’re a student, parent, coach, or entrepreneur, these words aren’t just for kids—they’re for ALL of us. If you’ve been searching for a spark, some encouragement, or a spiritual reset, this episode will light you up from the inside out. Enjoy.
If this message indeed fires you up, please share it forward. Send the podcast link to a student, athlete, or young person who needs some inspiration today. Or screenshot this episode, post it to your social media story, and tag us so we can celebrate with you.
