High-Performance Mindset from 35,000 Feet| Ep. 453; 5-Mindset Lessons Enroute to Montana

High-Performance Mindset from 35,000 Feet| Ep. 453; 5-Mindset Lessons Enroute to Montana
Hello IMPACT SHOW passengers, this is your captain speaking —Todd Durkin, coming to you LIVE from 35,000 feet altitude somewhere between San Diego and Whitefish, Montana! This one’s different as I could not contain my excitement enroute to Montana for our annual Mountain Retreat. I just HAD to hit record because my mind was in major FLOW mode and the lessons were downloading! This episode is all about MINDSET — how to stay calm in chaos, find clarity in the climb, and keep your faith strong even when life gets turbulent. Because just like flying, life doesn’t always give you smooth air. But you can always control your response, your attitude, and your altitude. Here’s What You’ll Learn in Episode 453: 1. You Can’t Control the Turbulence — But You CAN Control Your Response. Life’s gonna shake you. Business dips, plans get flipped, curveballs come outta nowhere. But high performers? They don’t panic — we breathe, we stay calm, and we trust our training. I share exactly what happened on my flight this past week and how to navigate life’s storms with poise, peace, and purpose. 2. High Altitude = High Awareness. When you rise above the weeds, you see the big picture. Up here, the clarity is unreal. I talk about how to “get above the noise” so you can see your mission, your purpose, and your life from a higher perspective — because clarity doesn’t come in chaos; it comes in stillness. And you can’t see the vision when you’re stuck on the runway. 3. Pre-Flight Rituals = Peak Performance Habits. Every pilot has a pre-flight checklist — and you need one too. I walk you through my own daily ritual: movement, gratitude, journaling, & prayer. These habits anchor me, fuel me, and set the tone for the day. Because I’m telling you — when you win the morning…you win the day; and when you win the day(s)…you ultimately win the weeks, months, quarters, and year(s). 4. Your Final Destination Is Determined by Your Dreams. We all need more “blue-sky” time. We all need more “white-space” in our daily rituals. It’s powerful to have some built-in, regular time to write, think, dream, and ultimately do. That’s why I’m also firing off 10 powerful questions to get you dreaming again — your Big 5 for Life, your Big 5 for 2026, and what God is whispering in this season. Don’t drift. Don’t settle. And now is a GREAT time of the year to start ‘dreaming.’ 5. Your Attitude Determines Your Altitude. You cannot fly high if you’re surrounded by people who live low. Protect your energy. Fuel your mind with gratitude and growth. Surround yourself with people who elevate, inspire, and challenge you. Because the higher you go, the thinner the air — and the fewer the distractions. Key Takeaways: Mindset determines your mission. You can’t control the turbulence, but you can control your response. Calm is a superpower. Gratitude is rocket fuel. Dream boldly. Live purposefully. Fly with faith. The world needs your energy, faith, and fire — at full altitude. My friends — life’s going to have turbulence. We are going to have seasons where life is “bumpy” to say the least. It’s important during those times to stay calm; Stay grateful; Stay focused; and stay tapped-in. Keep your seatbelt fastened, your faith strong, and your mindset sky-high. It’s time for take-off…it’s time for IGNITION!

Todd Durkin Interview—What’s Next, Greatest Fears, Building a new Gym & What’s Driving Him | Ep. 452 with Travis Barnes

Todd Durkin Interview—What’s Next, Greatest Fears, Building a new Gym & What’s Driving Him | Ep. 452 with Travis Barnes
Alright my friends—this one’s a little different. For Episode 452 of The IMPACT Show, I flip the microphone and let my good friend, business partner and brother in arms, Travis Barnes, take over as host of the podcast. If you don’t know Travis, he’s the co-founder of IMPACT-X Performance, a fellow Fit-Pro, author, speaker, husband, father, and someone who has been through the fire and has come out even stronger. He’s also a man of faith, incredible perseverance, and someone I truly respect. In this week’s episode, Travis interviews me on all the BIG NEWS, with the recent announcement of IXP—San Diego. We talk everything from faith, fear, vision, purpose, and what it’s like to be building something brand new again with IMPACT-X Performance San Diego. We go deep on what it means to trust God in the uncertainty, why there’s beauty in being scared, and how every chapter of growth requires us to let go, step up, and lead with heart. Here’s some of what we dive into: The backstory behind IMPACT-X San Diego—what it really is, who it’s for, and why it’s more than just another gym. The difference between Fitness Quest 10 and this next chapter—and how experience, faith, and team play a huge role. The beauty in the grind and why being scared is often a sign you’re exactly where you’re supposed to be. What it means to build from a place of abundance, not fear. How faith, recovery, and personal growth are woven into the DNA of Impact X. A heartfelt tribute to my partner Jeff Bristol and my entire team who’s supporting me unequivocally. Reflections from my 2001 self (25-years ago) to my 75-year-old future self—and the lessons learned in between. The power of gratitude, faith, and family, and how Melanie’s support has been the foundation through every chapter. My friends, ask yourself this week: “Would my younger self say ‘thank you’ to the person you are today?” If not, what do you need to change—today—to make thatanswer a “yes”? And while you’re at it, reach out to someone who’s impacted your life. Shoot them a message. Say thank you. Speak life into them. This episode is near and dear to my heart. It’s raw. It’s real. It’s about faith over fear, purpose over comfort, and trusting the process even when you can’t see the finish line. I hope it inspires you to chase your calling with courage, gratitude, and a deep trust that there’s beauty in every step—even the scary ones. With that being said, BUCKLE-UP. IMPACT-X Performance (San Diego) is about 90-days away and I haven’t felt this level of excitement in a long, long time. Finally, if this episode moved you in any way— please “like” it, share it with someone who needs a little faith and fire today, and tag us on Instagram (including my new IG page) so we can connect and keep the conversation going: IG: @ToddDurkin @ImpactXSanDiego @ImpactXPerformance @TravisBarnes333 IMPACT-X Performance UPDATES: JOB OPENINGS: We have several Job opportunities coming up at IMPACT-X Performance (San Diego) for those who may be interested: 1.

The BIGGEST News of My Fitness Career | Ep. 451 [Part 4: The Next Chapter Begins Now Series]

The BIGGEST News of My Fitness Career | Ep. 451 [Part 4: The Next Chapter Begins Now Series]
My friends… this might just be the biggest episode I’ve ever done. I mean it. Buckle up, because today I’m dropping the biggest news of my entire fitness career. Yup — you heard that right. After 25+ years of building, growing, evolving, and praying on what’s next… I’m fired up to officially announce that I’m opening IMPACT-X Performance San Diego (Carmel Mountain Ranch) coming Q1 of 2026! That’s right, baby--a brand new 5,000-square-foot sanctuary of fitness, recovery, coaching, and faith. A place where the soul sings, the spirit soars, and lives are transformed. This episode is personal. It’s raw. It’s emotional. I’m sharing straight from the heart — because this next chapter has been years in the making. Specifically, here is some of what I talk about on today’s IMPACT SHOW: The 5 reasons why I’m opening a new flagship IMPACT-X Performance location in San Diego. How 3.5 years of pain, burnout, and uncertainty turned into the foundation for my greatest comeback yet. WHY my soul needed to get back into brick and mortar — to lead, coach, and serve again in person. What makes IXP unique —from world-class training and recovery, to faith-fueled coaching and personal growth programs. #BuckleUp How scripture guided me through the storm and how this vision was born out of divine timing, not my own. You’ll also hear about my plans for additional mentorships, retreats, and life-changing experiences we’ll host at IXP San Diego — because I can’t wait to pour into more coaches, leaders, and high performers like YOU. I’m also dropping some reflection coaching questions that I’ve asked myself the last few years — questions that shaped everything I’m announcing today. And I believe they can help you also. Here are 4 of the questions I ask/coach you on today that I would love for YOU to answer: “If your older, wiser self (in 10-years from now) could speak to you, what would they say?” “If you knew you would not fail, what would you do — and when are you going to do it?” “Are you running to something or from something?” “What’s your BHAG--your big, hairy, audacious goal?” This episode is about rebirth, renewal, and stepping boldly into what God’s called you to do — even when you don’t have all the answers. Because I didn’t. For years, I didn’t. But now…now the vision is crystal clear. And I can’t wait to get going!!! So tune-in, crank-up the volume, and let’s celebrate this moment together. Because IMPACT-X Performance San Diego is coming SOON — and it’s going to be something special. Follow our journey on our new Instagram at @ImpactXSanDiego — I’ll be posting all the updates on the buildout, the team, the launch, and other great content. Please share on your SM as well, and please tag me at BOTH: IG: @ToddDurkin @ImpactXSanDiego #ImpactXPerformance #IXP #IXPSanDiego #ToddDurkin #ImpactShow #FaithFitnessFocus #BeTheLight #GetYourMindRight

25 Lessons in 25 Years: Have You Even Met the Best Version of You Yet? | Ep. 450 (Part 4: Lessons #21+)

25 Lessons in 25 Years: Have You Even Met the Best Version of You Yet? | Ep. 450 (Part 4: Lessons #21+)
We’re diving deep into the final 5+ lessons from my “25 Lessons in 25 Years” series — and I promise you, this one’s going to stir your soul. This episode is all about the next version of you, your habits, your mindset, and how to live your WHY with focus, fortitude, faith, and fire. After 25 years in the trenches — training, coaching, building businesses, leading people, and walking through both triumphs and trials — these final lessons are the culmination of everything I’ve learned about impact, growth, and living life on purpose. So grab your journal, take a deep breath, and let’s get your mind right. Here is what we will go deep on today with my lessons: LESSON 21: Have You Even Met the Best Version of You Yet? Stop letting your past — good or bad — define your future. You are not your job title, your bank account, or your achievements. You are defined by how you live with purpose, love your people, and the impact you make in this world. LESSON 22: Your Habits Make or Break You Success isn’t built on motivation — it’s built on habits. Your habits will either set you up for greatness or sabotage your growth. From morning routines to movement, journaling to phone boundaries, all the way to evening routines--your systems shape your story. LESSON 23: Get Your Mind Right In the good times and the tough times, yep, you gotta GET or you gotta KEEP your mind right. Mindset determines everything. You can’t have a 7-figure or an 8-figure impact with a 3-figure mindset. And remember: to truly get your mind right, you’ve got to tune into your whispers--not the world’s noise. Your whispers are God’s voice guiding you toward your divine calling. LESSON 24: Drink the Juice What’s giving you juice right now? What fires you up? What’s that one thing that gets you out of bed before sunrise ready to attack the day? If you’ve lost your juice — get around people who have it. Passion is contagious. Also, discover what’s giving me the most “juice” these days. LESSON 25: Build Relationship Equity Relationships are your greatest asset. Period. The people you pour into today might be the very ones who show up to help you 15 or 20 years down the road. Build your network before you need it. Keep serving. Keep giving. Keep showing up for people. LESSON 26: Build Your Brand, Protect Your Reputation It can take 20 years to build a reputation… and one bad decision to destroy it. Guard your integrity. Lead with honor. Choose wisely. LESSON 27: Lead, Lead, Lead A leader of one, a leader of many — if you can’t lead one, you can’t lead any. Lead yourself first. Five leadership truths I’ve learned: 1. Hire slow, fire fast. 2. Listen with your ears AND your eyes. 3. Culture leads to cash. 4. Cash flow is the lifeblood — keep your eyes on it. 5. Set high expectations and live them out. LESSON 28: Show Up as Extraordinary. Period. Extraordinary doesn’t just happen — it’s a choice. LESSON 29: Who Do You Want to Be a Hero To? Who do you want to be a hero to — your kids? Your spouse? Your team? The people you serve? And instead of just asking yourself, “What are you willing to die for?” Ask, “What are you willing to LIVE for?” LESSON 30: Live Your WHY…Live Your Purpose. When and why did you start your mission? Are you still living from that place of divine purpose? Are you living your divine uniqueness on a regular basis and creating maximum IMPACT?! This lessons shares it all and ends with some fire!! That’s a wrap. I hope this episode recalibrated your energy, reminded you of the deep-seated passion and purpose inside of you, and ignited a fire within you to go out and do good in the world. This also culminates my 25-lessons and sets up one of the MOST IMPORTANT podcast episodes out of 450 thus far. Be sure to tune-in NEXT week to hear some of the biggest news of my entire 25+ year fitness career. Do NOT miss it! Until then, cherish each of the lessons shared and continue to live each and every day to the fullest. If you can do us a favor and please forward this episode to a friend, family-member, co-worker or colleague…or please share it on your social media or within your community newsletter/email.

Top 25 Lessons in 25 Years (Part 3: Lessons #11–20) | EPISODE 449
WOW—We are back with more of my Top 25 Lessons in 25-years. Today we have lessons #11 through #20 and I believe it’s going to light a spark in your soul. These are the lessons forged through years of sweat, setbacks, and success in business, life, and leadership. From how to create deep, internal change… to the power of mentorship, team culture, and mindset… this episode is all about leveling up who you are and how you can lead even more effectively. Here’s a sneak peek at what we’re covering today: Lesson #11: The deepest and most profound change happens on the inside. You either invite change into your life — or it bursts forth from within you. Real growth starts in the heart and shows up in your actions. Lesson #12: Have a coach. Have a mentor. No one evolves to their best version alone. Every champion has someone pouring into them. Who’s pouring into you right now and who are you pouring into? Lesson #13: Greatness is a mindset — and it never ends. Whether you’re a trainer, leader, or parent, the goal is the same: show up fully every single day. Every session, every conversation, every podcast — bring your BEST. Lesson #14: The bigger your dream, the more important your team. You can’t build big dreams with small thinking or solo effort. Great leaders build great people — and that’s how you change the world. Lesson #15: Keep a white belt mentality. Never stop learning. Stay humble. Keep growing. Growth is the oxygen of greatness. Lesson #16: Know your top five roles in life. Say “yes” to your priorities and “no” to the noise. Define your mission — then live it with intentionality. Lesson #17: Your environment dictates how you think, feel, and act. Upgrade your surroundings — from your workspace to your gym to your relationships — and watch your energy shift instantly. Lesson #18: Get off your phone. Seriously. Carve out phone-free time every day and reclaim your focus, creativity, and peace. Lesson #19: Want to make more money? Get more blue sky and mellow yellow time and this will help you gain more green machine. Your biggest ideas come when you unplug, dream, and recharge. Lesson #20: He or she who has their health has a thousand dreams…he or she who does not, has ONE. Protect your health like your life depends on it — because it does. This episode is personal, powerful, and packed with stories that’ll challenge and inspire you to grow from the inside out. Plus, I drop a MAJOR teaser — I’ve got one of the biggest announcements of my career coming up on our November 3 rd episode (#451), which will be the closing episode to this “The Next Chapter” series. You will NOT want to miss that episode. So lace up your shoes, pick-up some weights (or at least grab your notebook) and let’s dive in — because your next chapter is being written right now. Here.

25 Lessons in 25 Years: Lessons #1–10 | Ep. 448 (Your Next Chapter Starts Now Series Part 2)
We are about to drop some wisdom today! It’s amazing how much you learn over two and half decades of life. For today’s episode, I was reflecting on 25-years in the brick & mortar space and the many lessons I’ve learned in the fitness, coaching, sports, and business world and woah…I came up with a lot. These lessons are hard-fought, soul-earned wisdom that life, business, and faith have taught me over a quarter century in the trenches. Today, I’m sharing 10 of my 25+ lessons learned over 25 years. Some will hit quick and sharp. Others will go deep. But each one is designed to help you reflect, refocus, and reignite as you write your own next chapter. I’m hoping at least 1, 2, or 3 of these really resonate deeply with you and where you are at in your journey of life. Let’s dive into my first 10-Lessons (and some of the crazy stories) I want to share with you on today’s episode: LESSON #1: YOU GOTTA START. LESSON #2: BE THE MOST POSITIVE PERSON YOU KNOW. LESSON #3: LOSSES REMIND YOU OF THE FRAGILITY OF LIFE. LESSON #4: IF THERE’S A FORK IN THE ROAD, TAKE IT. LESSON #5: WHEN YOU’RE MAKING FINANCIAL PROJECTIONS, YOUR REVENUES ARE OFTEN HALF OF WHAT YOU PROJECT…AND YOUR EXPENSES ARE OFTEN DOUBLE. LESSON #6: DREAM BIG, START SMALL, AND WORK YOUR BUTT OFF. LESSON #7: TAKE RISKS, DON’T BE AFRAID TO FAIL, AND USE FEAR AS FUEL. LESSON #8: WALKING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE MESS IS UNCOMFORTABLE. LESSON #9: THERE IS NOTHING LIKE LIVE EVENTS. LESSON #10: PRIORITIZE FAMILY. These are the first 10 of my 25+ lessons in 25 years. Which one hit you the hardest? Which one speaks to your soul right now? Which one resonated deepest? Screenshot it, share it on your social media, and tag me — I want to know what lesson is driving your next chapter. Also, if this episode spoke to you, please share it forward.

My Next Chapter Starts NOW…[New Series] | Ep. 447
10/06/2025
My Next Chapter Starts NOW…[New Series] | Ep. 447
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. But I had to take the FIRST step before advancing to the NEXT step. After 25-years of being in my original location where I started my gym, I have decided to NOT renew my lease. There are several reasons why and I will share all of them on today’s IMPACT SHOW episode. As a matter of fact, tune-in to today’s first episode of a series called ‘Next Chapter Starts Now’ that will end with one of the biggest 2 announcements in my entire fitness & coaching career. LITERALLY. Here is what I will discuss today: Why this is (kinda) my last podcast ever… What I believe is next? Top “10” Reflections on 25-Years in the “Roots” including… 1. Reggie Bush puking off the balcony 2. Training “LT” (LaDainian Tomlinson) for the 1st time 3. Training Drew Brees for the 1st time 4. The diamond girl coming into the gym to show me engagement rings 5. My Boom Box was a mainstay for years! 6. Svarpa Yoga and a curtain between my TD Fitness Classes and that yoga class. 7. The “Green Room” and the “Blue Room”—2 massage rooms 8. Melanie & I painting the ROOTS before we opened with our first golden retriever, Sid. 9. The power of Community. September 11, 2001. The fires in Scripps Ranch in 2003. Fires again in 2006. COMMUNITY in the good times and the tough times. . 10. Expanding…twice. First, 2002 Took over a breast-pump rental store. Gave us an extra 1,000 square feet. Then in 2006, we took over downstairs. It was a 500K expansion. I was scared and excited. 11. And Then Some: The 6-things I put on a Notecard to manifest an additional $10,000 per month when expanding. I end today’s episode with 4 Coaching Questions for you to answer: 1. Have you ever moved from something that makes little or no sense to the outside world, but it feels so RIGHT on the inside world? 2. Have you ever been so scared to make a move that you deliberated for a while, or even too long, before making it? 3. How does FEAR play out in your world? Does it paralyze or crush you? Or does it propel you?4. What big decisions are you making today that you KNOW the answer “inside” but you aren’t making them… (employee, expansion, sell, or acquire, grow, invest, etc.) and WHEN are you going to make those decisions? What is going to happen that will allow you to make them?

A Champion’s Life: These Words Will Change Your Life | Episode 446 Live From Christian Unified High School Chapel
This 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.

An Interview with my wife Melanie: Mental Health, Marriage, Suicide, & What’s Next | Ep. 445
09/22/2025
An Interview with my wife Melanie: Mental Health, Marriage, Suicide, & What’s Next | Ep. 445
This week is special. I’ve got my lovely bride, Melanie Durkin, back on the podcast—and for good reason. September is Mental Health Awareness Month, and this conversation hits close to home. Melanie shares her powerful story of losing her 19-year-old brother to suicide back in 1998, how it rocked her world, and the healing journey that followed. Together, we open up about grief, faith, family, and the daily habits that support mental wellness. In this episode, we talk about: Breaking the stigma around mental health. Why losing her brother at a young age was so crippling and how that ultimately affected our relationship, and even our parenting. Using tragedy as fuel to create impact and hope. How to support loved ones who may be struggling. Why prayer, fitness, journaling, and healthy habits matter more than ever. Her top emotion/lesson learned a week after leaving serving in prison with Bob Goff and the Love Does team. Her feelings about finding out about Charlie Kirk, just as we walked out of prison. What brings you the most joy & happiness these days? 25-years of marriage this coming February. What would you say is the key? Why are you excited to speak at our Montana Retreat this November? Our vision for the IMPACT Foundation and what’s next in 2026. This is raw, real, and heartfelt. Whether you’ve battled mental health challenges yourself or walked alongside someone who has, my hope is that this conversation gives you strength, encouragement, and a reminder—you’re not alone. If this conversation resonated, please share it. You can share the link to the podcast with a family member or friend. Or you can post it on your SM story and tag us.

7 Lessons I Learned in Prison | Ep. 444 with Todd & Melanie Durkin
09/15/2025
7 Lessons I Learned in Prison | Ep. 444 with Todd & Melanie Durkin
I just got back from prison. Yep—you read that right. Melanie and I, alongside legendary author & philanthropist Bob Goff and the Love Does team, spent a full day inside San Quentin State Prison in northern CA. And let me tell you, it was one of the most powerful, life-changing experiences you could only imagine. Today’s episode is raw, real, and fresh—we recorded it just days after getting back. You’ll hear from both me and Melanie as we share what we saw, what we felt, and the incredible lessons we learned from the men inside those walls, many of them who have life-sentences. Before diving in, I’ve got three coaching questions for you that deal with the 7-lessons we will share today (Please keep them in mind WHILE you are listening to this episode): What are your greatest ambitions and dreams? What is your hope and where are you placing your hope these days? What are your fears…and what’s your relationship with fear? Here are some of the lessons and take-aways we brought home from San Quentin and will discuss in Episode 444: The Power of a Greeting – One hug. One moment. One welcome can change everything. Wait until you hear this one! The Yard is Where It’s At – Raw humanity on display: boxing, baseball, running, workouts, conversations, and even the “pigeon guy.” Reform & Rehabilitation Work – Hundreds of programs, degrees, certifications, and initiatives giving men hope and purpose inside the walls. Communication Matters – No phones. No distractions. Just presence, depth, and real conversation. The Power of a Small Group – Stories of Max, Jesse, and others reminded us that dreams of family, freedom, and redemption are universal. The Power of One Conversation – Sometimes a single word of encouragement, one moment of presence, can alter a life’s trajectory. The Power of a Mission – What Bob Goff and “Love Does” is doing to build schools across the globe inspired Melanie and I to ask: “How can the Durkin IMPACT Foundation do even more? Listen in… At the heart of it all, this trip reminded me of something Pastor Miles McPherson told me years ago: “All people—prisoners, homeless, troubled, broken—they are ALL God’s people, made in His image.” So true. Melanie and I left San Quentin in deep gratitude and with a burning question: How can we do more? How can we serve in ways that create even greater IMPACT? So, I’ll leave you with one more question today: Where and how can YOU show up, serve, and give back to make the biggest impact also? Thanks for listening, my friends. Please share this one—it’s a message we all need to hear.

ENERGY 100: Your Journey from Exhausted to Energized | Ep. 443 with Brett Klika
You’re in for a very special conversation today. I’ve got my man Brett Klika back in the IMPACT house. You may remember him from Episode 327 where he shared his raw, heart-wrenching story of love, loss, and life after the sudden passing of his wife, Lisa. That was nearly three years ago. And today, Brett’s back—and this time, he’s bringing some incredible news, wisdom, and HOPE. Brett has just released his brand-new book Energy 100, and let me tell you—it is powerful. It’s already a bestseller and it’s changing lives left and right. This isn’t just a book; it’s Brett’s journey of going from absolute exhaustion and grief to becoming energized, purposeful, and intentional again. And now, he’s helping thousands of people do the same. In today’s episode, we dive deep into: How Brett went from survival mode (just trying to make it to lunch each day) to thriving with a renewed vision for his future. The 3 Pillars of Energy—Biological Energy, Awareness, and Intention—and how they can radically shift your life. Why chasing “busy” and someone else’s version of success is draining your soul (and how to flip the script). What it means to live with purpose when everything you thought was permanent gets ripped away. Practical exercises from Energy 100 that will help you move from burned out to fired up. And yes—we even talk about crazy travel stories, being intentional as a parent, and the powerful lessons Brett has learned from raising his amazing daughter, Maddie. This episode is raw, real, and ridiculously inspiring. If you’ve ever felt exhausted, lost, or like you’ve hit zero momentum—this is for YOU. Friends, if today’s conversation brought you value, here’s what I encourage you to do: Grab Brett’s book Energy 100 (and the companion journal) on Amazon today. SHARE this episode on Instagram and tag me @ToddDurkin and Brett (@BKlika) and let us know your biggest takeaway.

Mindset, Mentors & Multiplying Your Impact | Ep. 442 with Brady Hutchins

Mindset, Mentors & Multiplying Your Impact | Ep. 442 with Brady Hutchins
If you’ve ever wondered how to fully step into the best version of yourself — before the world even sees it — this episode is for you. One of my mentees, Brady Hutchins flips the script and interviews me on everything from overcoming limiting beliefs, to staying present in every interaction, to finding your God-given purpose. You’ll hear raw, behind- the-scenes, never before told stories from my experiences coaching elite athletes like Drew Brees, LaDainian Tomlinson, and Jordan Love, as well as lessons that apply to anyone — from pro athletes to parents, entrepreneurs, and everyday leaders. This is a conversation about the stuff you don’t see on TV — the pain, the setbacks, the faith, and the relentless mindset it takes to keep going when the voices in your head say, “I can’t.” Here are the big questions Coach Hutchins asks me at his recent Retreat held at IMPACT-X Performance (Huntington Beach, CA): What are the most common limiting beliefs you’ve seen — even in high performers? We talk about the “I can’t” voice that lives in all of us and how to shut it down. How can someone start owning their potential now, even before the evidence shows up? We dig into the idea of being him (or her) before you’re him (or her) — and what that looks like in everyday life. How do you maintain energy and presence whether you’re with NFL MVPs or brand-new clients? I share some of my behind-the-scenes hacks and why every person is important and the power of truly listening. Can you share a behind-the-scenes story from your time with a pro athlete? From Drew Brees’ shoulder injury and devastating personal loss… to his Super Bowl win, we talk about the unseen grit and faith it took to get there. What’s a more current example of an athlete’s life off the field? The untold story of Green Bay Packers QB Jordan Love, his personal tragedy, and his mission to use his platform to help others. How do you find mentors at the highest level? This is where I talk about how and why mentors often “appear” as you grow — and why you should seek them in multiple areas of life. How do you handle situations where you can’t directly mentor someone who wants it? I share WHY every company should consider a continuum of coaching — from physical to mindset to leadership to life. How do you discover your deepest, divine purpose? We go deep into my own journey — from football dreams, to a career-ending injury, to finding my calling in helping people change their lives. This episode is going to challenge you to think differently about your identity, your purpose, and your path forward. Whether you’re at the top of your game or just getting started, these principles will help you step more boldly into the person you were created to be. Friends, if today’s conversation brings you value, here’s what I ask: Please SHARE this episode on Instagram and tag me @ToddDurkin and @hutchfitcoaching— let us know your biggest takeaway.

Writing Your Next Chapter | Ep. 441 with Strength Coach Bennie Wylie

Writing Your Next Chapter | Ep. 441 with Strength Coach Bennie Wylie
What happens when life takes a surprise hard left turn and suddenly you’re staring at a brand-new chapter? Do you crumble… or do you rise up and write the next page with faith, grit, and purpose? This week, I sit down with my great friend, powerhouse coach, and brother-in-iron, Bennie Wiley. Bennie and I worked together on NBC STRONG several years ago and I recently conducted this podcast interview just weeks after Bennie’s tenure as the Head Football Strength & Conditioning Coach at USC (U. of Southern California) ended. Bennie’s story is one of perseverance, transition, and staying grounded in faith through the messy middle of change. After decades in strength & conditioning — from the Dallas Cowboys to Oklahoma to USC — Bennie found himself navigating an unexpected career pivot. Instead of letting it break him, he’s leaning into the unknown, rewriting his story, and chasing new passions with fire. We cover a TON in this heartfelt and inspiring conversation, including: The “next” chapter– how to prepare for what’s coming even when you don’t know what it is. Handling adversity – who you really are shows up when life gets hard. Family first – how Bennie is embracing time with his kids and creating moments he missed before. Bodybuilding lessons – what stepping on stage taught him about discipline, nutrition, and respecting ALL areas of fitness. Life wisdom – why keeping your circle tight and being fully present “where your feet are” changes everything. Writing vs. rewriting – Bennie’s mindset shift that every chapter builds on the last, not erases it. This episode will fire you up to face your own next “season” with courage, clarity, and conviction. Bennie is raw, real, and full of life wisdom that will help you get your mind right and keep moving forward. Let’s keep inspiring greatness, building purpose, and creating IMPACT together. Let’s go up to IMPACT-X Performance Huntington Beach where we recently had a Retreat and listen to the interview with Coach Wylie NOW… Tune in, take notes, and remember — you don’t need to rewrite your story. You just need to keep writing it. Friends, if today’s conversation brought you value, here’s what I encourage you to do: 1. SHARE this episode on Instagram and tag me @ToddDurkin and Bennie (@bwyliestrong)— and let us know your biggest takeaway. 2.

Who’s in Your Corner? 5 Moves to Win the Fight You’re In | Ep. 440 [Spittin’ Fire]
Ding-ding. Let’s get ready to rumble. We are in the octagon today and in the fight of your life. Sometimes life will punch you in the gut. You’ll take hits financially, relationally, in business, or in your health. You might even sometimes feel like you’re getting knocked out. But here’s my question… Who’s in your corner? The people you surround yourself with in both the good times and the bad times will make or break you. And today, I’m sharing a message that recently hit me at 1:30 in the morning, and forced me to pop-up, write down my thoughts, and later record a little Spittin’ Fire (hence Ep. 440). So today, I’m talking about your “cornermen” (or corner-women) in your life — the thoroughbreds who lift you up, sharpen you, and help you to keep swinging…even when you’re down & out. Or give you specific instruction on how to get out of a tough time. Specifically, I’ll give you 5-moves you can make right now, whether you are winning the fight…or getting your butt kicked. Specifically, I’m going to share 5 moves that will help you do the following: How to get rid of the stinkin’ thinkin and the scarcity mindset that can rob you when you in the middle of the “fight.” How to stay in “DREAM-mode” and allow your dreams to inspire and empower you to keep going. You gotta stay IN the fight. How to BE the person you are trying to attract. How to best cut the noise and narrow your focus. How to keep trusting God when you feel like He has deserted you. Friends, thank you for being in my corner…I sure am honored to be in yours. We’re in this fight together — and I pray God gives us the strength, perseverance, and wisdom to win today’s battles and tomorrow’s wars. Today’s episode will remind you of what you’re made of, who’s around you and the importance of STAYING IN THE FIGHT!! If this episode fires you up, here’s how you can help spread the impact: 1.

Deep Thoughts from 35,000 Feet: the Marine Corps, Speaking, & the Highs & Lows of Life | Ep. 438
08/04/2025
Deep Thoughts from 35,000 Feet: the Marine Corps, Speaking, & the Highs & Lows of Life | Ep. 438
I’m coming at you mid-flight after one of the wildest weeks of my speaking career — and today, I’m giving you a look behind the curtain of what the keynote life really looks like. From missed flights and sleeping on airport benches… to one of the greatest honors of my speaking career: speaking to the United States Marine Corps. This episode is raw. Real. And straight from 35,000 feet. It’s a story of extreme lows and unbelievable highs. It’s a reminder that leadership, energy, and purpose aren’t just for the stage — they’re for the trenches. And I’m sharing it all — because chances are, you have probably felt and experienced those same extremes in your life too. In this episode, I specifically unpack: The real truth about keynote speaking — and why it’s not always glamorous. The travel disaster that forced me to sleep in an airport (hello, humility!) My time with Supplement King and 75 rockstar franchise owners in Canada The powerful honor of speaking to 60+ Sergeant Majors in the U.S. Marine Corps My message to the Marines on mindset, leadership, standards, and energy The impact of attending the legendary “8th & I Parade” at the Marine Corps Barracks in Washington, D.C. The deep sense of pride, purpose, and presence that came from it all. Listen in as I take you on the road with me — through fatigue, faith, and full-circle moments that remind us why we do what we do. This isn’t just an episode. It’s a reminder and testament to the power of ‘Keep showing up,’ no matter what. Life isn’t just about the stage moments or highlight reels. It’s about who you are when your back’s against the wall. It’s about how you lead when the mission’s tough, the energy’s low...or your flight’s massively delayed or canceled. This week reminded me of something we all need to hear: The standard is the standard. And your energy is your legacy. So wherever you are — in the air, on the ground, or deep in the grind — keep showing up. Keep leading. And keep making IMPACT.

We are flipping the script today. We have my great friend, fellow mindset coach & high performance leader Andrew Simpson back on the podcast. In this conversation, we actually go back and forth on faith, burnout, leadership, mindset, spiritual alignment, and how to build systems that support not just your success… but your soul.

Here’s what we’re unpacking in today’s episode: Why ‘peace’ is the real high-performance strategy no one talks about How to lead without leaking your energy The warning signs that you’re out of alignment (and how to shift back) How to create “stillness systems” in your life and leadership Why accountability is the bridge between dreaming and fulfilling your calling A challenge to slow down and listen to what God might be whispering to you right now What are some of the most common mental blocks or mindset related challenges that you see athletes facing? TD’s mantras to ‘Get Your Mind Right’, including anchor points, breathwork/ visualization, tips on training the brain, and personal care. Defining your circle of influence and how you can uplevel it right now. Todd and Andrew share stories on how they have helped athletes get their minds right!

From Success to Significance: Building a Life & Legacy That Matters | Episode 436 [Part 3 of 3]

From Success to Significance: Building a Life & Legacy That Matters | Episode 436 [Part 3 of 3]
Buckle-up boys & girls. Today we are talking about building massive success and significance in your life. This is Part 3 of our series on the 4 S’s (Survival → Stability → Success → Significance). And today we’re diving all the way in on that 4th and final stage — the one we’re all ultimately striving for: Significance. So let me ask you a question: Have you ever tasted success but still felt something was missing? Maybe you were a bit empty or you knew you were made for even more. Like you were doing “the thing,” but your soul was craving something even deeper? If that’s you, I feel you — and today’s episode is going to light you up. I’m talking about how to go from success to living a life of true fulfillment, legacy, and impact. This is for the coach, entrepreneur, parent, or high performer who’s ready to align their business, life, and divine-calling into one powerful, purpose-driven mission. Here’s specifically what I’m coaching you on today: Why success without fulfillment is the ultimate failure. How to deepen your WHY and evolve your purpose as you grow. My 5 signs you’re operating at a significant level. The Legacy Flywheel: o Vision Expansion o Team Empowerment o Exit Strategy Planning (Check out www.DavidSeitter.com/Assessment for more on this). My personal story of working with LaDainian Tomlinson and the moment I realized success wasn’t enough. The 4L Legacy Lens — the framework I use for fulfillment: 1. LOVE: Are your relationships thriving? 2. LEADERSHIP: Are you mentoring the next generation? 3. LIFESTYLE: Are you living fully in health, energy, and time? 4. LEGACY: What are you leaving behind that matters most? Finally — I’m challenging you to carve out time and write your Significant Statement. This is your declaration, your manifesto for who you are and the impact you’re called to create. Friends, this episode isn’t just about building success — it’s about building a life of maximum significance. It’s for the business owner who feels stuck. It’s for the coach who’s craving deeper fulfillment. It’s for the parent, leader, or visionary who knows they were created for more. This episode is your permission slip to dream again… to go from “What’s next?” to “I’m doing it.” It addresses mindset, legacy, impact, systems, team, and what it means to truly live aligned with your divine calling. Remember, your life matters. Your voice matters. And what you build now — in your purpose, your business, your relationships — is what creates your legacy. So let’s get to work. Let’s move from success to SIGNIFICANCE…and let’s do it NOW! If this episode resonates with you, please share it on IG stories or send it to a friend.

Here’s what I’m coaching you on this week: Why stability is the most dangerous place to stay if you want real success. How to overcome fear and step boldly into your growth zone. The “3-S Success Stack”: Systems, Structure, and Scale — and how to implement each one right now. The exact tools I use in my business and life: the “Big 3,” the “Sunday Setup,” and the power of doing your “WLAGs” A personal story that had me asking, “What should I do, Dad?” — and how YOU can tap into divine wisdom today. Friends, I want you to experience TRUE success — the kind that fuels your soul and leaves a legacy. And I pour it all into this episode.

From Struggling & Surviving to Successful & Significant [Success Series Part 1] | Ep. 434
Welcome to Part 1 of the SUCCESS SERIES! I’m really excited to share this series with you as it’s going to be pertinent for ALL of us. Regardless of which of the “4-S” phase you’re currently in, I believe these next 3 episodes will break down each phase and help you ultimately move to the “Significance” phase of business and life. Today, this one’s for YOU if you’re grinding, pushing, and hustling—but you feel like you’re more stuck in the survival or stability mode. Maybe you’re doing all the things, yet you feel behind. Maybe you feel a bit overwhelmed…and want reprieve. Maybe you are burned out…and need a serious recharge on ALL levels. Maybe you know there is another level…and you feel oh so close. This episode is ALL about helping you shift from survival mode to stability mode… and eventually into success mode and significance mode. Today, back by popular demand, I’ve got my 4-sections back on the podcast to help you on ALL levels reach maximum significance: 1. Mindset Coaching 2. Business Coaching 3. Life-Coaching 4. Personal Story/Share This IMPACT SHOW episode is for you if: You're hustling hard… but not feeling the type of progress you want or expect. You're tired, drained, or exhausted and don’t know if you have much left in the tank. You're juggling too many offers or responsibilities…and need to reduce the complexity that you have created. You know you're meant for more… but don’t have clarity on what the next step is. You're craving momentum, clarity, and structure… but not quite sure how to get there. If that’s you…I GOT YOU!! In this episode, some of the things I coach you specifically through and cover today in Part 1 of the Series include: The 4 Modes of Growth: Survival, Stability, Success, & Significance The mindset shift you MUST make immediately to move forward The 3-part framework to stabilize your life and business: 1. Simplify your model – cut the clutter, get focused 2. Audit your time and energy – what's draining you vs. fueling you? 3. Gain financial clarity – get real with your numbers and create a 90-day plan Why white space is MORE important than working harder How to use the “10 Forms of Wealth” to check in on your life right now A personal story from Knoxville, TN, about relationship equity and why coaching is the long game Please don’t wait for a breaking point to make a breakthrough. Let this be your wake-up call. Take the step. Do the work. Lean in. You are one decision away from a serious momentum shift. Success starts with structure. And stability starts when you give yourself space to think, dream, and LEAD. Now is the time. I’m rooting for you and I’m here to coach you every step of the way. Listen-in as I know it’s going to help catapult you to the next level. If you loved this episode, please share it with a friend, post it on your IG Story, and tag me @ToddDurkin.

Old Dog, New Tricks: Fitness Industry Icon Greg Justice on American Ninja Warrior at 63-years old | Ep. 433

Old Dog, New Tricks: Fitness Industry Icon Greg Justice on American Ninja Warrior at 63-years old | Ep. 433
Buckle up for one heckuva inspiring episode today as I sit down with my dear friend, legendary trainer, author, and now AMERICAN NINJA WARRIOR…Greg Justice. Yep—you read that right. At 63 years young, Greg recently stepped onto the Ninja Warrior stage and showed the world what’s possible when faith, grit, and years of consistent deposits into your health account come together. This isn’t just a story about obstacles, balance logs, or flying through the air—it’s about mindset, purpose, legacy, and what it really means to never stop growing. In This Episode, We Dive Into: Greg’s full American Ninja Warrior experience—from a 4am call-time to national TV stardom. How a setback (a brutal ankle injury) turned into a setup for his comeback. The Jack LaLanne legacy that drives Greg’s mission. And a surprise visit from Elaine LaLanne on primetime NBC. Why mindset beats age every single time. Greg’s recovery story and how he reprogrammed his brain (and body) to overcome fear. “BEDWAS”: The powerful acronym Greg lives by every morning. The difference between retiring and rewiring. In this Show, Greg also drops powerful truths like: “Age isn’t just a number. It’s experience, wisdom, and an invitation to do MORE.” “Your bank and health account are like the same thing.

Burnt-out Business Owner to Breakthrough Sales; 7 Strategies to Reignite Your Fire & Reawaken Your Dreams | Ep. 430 with Jeremy Gritton

Burnt-out Business Owner to Breakthrough Sales; 7 Strategies to Reignite Your Fire & Reawaken Your Dreams | Ep. 430 with Jeremy Gritton
This is honestly one of the most remarkable, and extraordinary personal & professional transformations you will ever hear. If you’ve ever felt on the edge of giving up, overwhelmed, exhausted, anchored in burnout, or even wondering if your business or mission still matters… you need to hear this. It’s hard to explain…unless you have ever been there. In today’s episode, I sit down with longtime coaching client, gym owner, and my good friend Jeremy Gritton, who shares a story that gave me chills. Jeremy was one step away from walking away from his business. Burned out. Broken. Physically sick. Ready to quit. Energy completely zapped. Throw in the towel. Or not? One decision—showing up at the Montana Retreat last year—changed everything. Literally. You have to hear this story. In this episode, we unpack: How Jeremy hit rock bottom—and found his way out. The moment he knew he had to get help. How faith, coaching, and community helped him reclaim his ENERGY, purpose, and profit. What it really means to “Be in the room.” How he went on to double his business in the past few months. This is a raw, emotional, and wildly inspiring story of grit, resilience, faith, and getting back up when life knocks you down. If you’re energy is shot right now, you’re facing overwhelm and just not feeling like yourself—heck maybe you have even developed a bad attitude, don’t like work anymore, and have even developed resentment towards your team or those around you, then LISTEN TO THIS. If you’re not feeling this, LISTEN anyway—because it might be what helps you (or someone you know) avoid burnout. I want to give a HUGE shoutout to Jeremy Gritton for having the courage to share this story—and to his wife Brandy, Travis Barnes, Justin Roethlingshoefer, and every member of our coaching community who played a role in this turnaround. You never know who you’re helping when you keep showing up and you’re in the room! After the interview, I break down 7 powerful MINDSET strategies to help you prevent burnout and reignite your fire: 1. Give yourself permission to rest 2. Eliminate the overwhelm 3. Create your own optimization plan 4. Dial in your nighttime routine 5. Don’t slack on your workouts 6. BE IN THE ROOM 7. Reawaken your dreams This episode is coaching for your heart, your health, your hustle—and your legacy. Thanks for tuning in.

ONE SNAP AWAY: Inside the Mindset of an NFL QB with Brett Rypien | Ep. 427
Let’s GO!!! This is not your average podcast episode. No fluff, no filler—just straight fire. This episode is one that’ll hit you in the heart AND light a fire under your feet. I sat down with my guy, NFL quarterback Brett Rypien—seven-year vet, newlywed, and one of the most mentally dialed-in athletes I’ve ever coached. We’ve trained together for 6 years now, and I can tell you this: he is one snap away from becoming a household name. Seriously. Additionally, I have a MINDSET section where I expand on the “One Snap Away” mentality and how this applies to each and every one of us. Lastly, I close this week’s podcast with a personal share on my son Luke Durkin who just graduated from Davidson College (NC) over the weekend and who’s about to embark upon law school this Fall. I share my most proud moment over his 4-year career in school, football, and the ROTC. Whether you’re an athlete, a coach, a leader, or just someone hungry for passion, purpose, & IMPACT—you’re going to want to hear this episode! In This Episode, We Hit: Mindset Mastery: What it means to “live in victory, not for victory.” Brett’s daily habits will challenge how you start your mornings—and why he ditched social media cold turkey. Faith in the Fire: Brett’s faith isn’t just something he talks about—it’s his anchor. He shares how God, prayer, and how Psalm 23 keep him steady through the NFL’s chaos. Grinding in the Shadows: We talk about what it’s like to fight for a job every year. No guaranteed money. No promises. Just hard work, sweat, and belief. The Rypien Cup: Yes, it’s real. A family golf battle royale that makes Ryder Cup look tame. You’ll love this story. NFL Brotherhood: Lessons from Russ, Cooper Kupp, Cortland Sutton—and why the guys who stick around the longest win with their mind, not just their arm. My take on why backups often make the BEST coaches… and why Brett is destined for greatness beyond football. The “ONE SNAP AWAY” mentality. My personal section filled with pride & joy as my oldest son Luke Durkin just graduated from college and I share some highlights, lowlights, and what I’m most proud of over his 4-year career. PLUS: The Brett Rypien Jump Rope Challenge is officially ON. Can you hit 900 straight? Bring it on!! This episode is raw. It’s real. It’s a masterclass in mindset, faith, and perseverance. Hit play. Take notes. Share this with someone who needs a little light today. And keep your eyes on #11 in Minnesota—Brett Rypien is one snap away. Let’s GO! Thanks for tuning-in.

I’m dropping dimes on mindset, momentum, and what it really takes to create lasting transformation. Then, I answer 8 big questions straight from our Mastermind family — covering everything from building a career in fitness, to staying grounded during turbulent times, to growing a business with purpose and soul. I even share a few things I’m most excited about this year (hint: Montana… Mastermind… IXP… let’s go!). What You’ll Learn in This Episode: How to flip the switch when you’re stuck, stagnant, or seeking a breakthrough The 7 steps to create momentum and turn around ANY season of life How failure is not a loss… it’s a lesson Why discipline = freedom (yep, even when you don’t feel like it) The habits that drive high performance and deep fulfillment How to compartmentalize your busy life and still stay grounded Why training is my divine uniqueness (and how you can find yours) The #1 mindset shift for launching your dream biz 8 people ask awesome questions for the Q&A Why being in the right room is everything (join us at a retreat!) A Personal Note: This one hits different. It's been a wild season — celebrating my mom’s life one week and pouring into our retreat community the next.

Avoid a Heart Attack by Doing THIS | Ep. 425 with Preventative Cardiologist Dr. Milind Parikh

Avoid a Heart Attack by Doing THIS | Ep. 425 with Preventative Cardiologist Dr. Milind Parikh
My heart is literally on fire today…and not because of a workout —but because we’re going deep on HEART HEALTH with one of the top preventative cardiologists in the country, Dr. Milind Parikh. This is personal for me. My dad died of a heart attack at 58. I’ve got the genetics. I’ve also got the drive to outlive it. And now, I’ve got the data AND treatments to potentially stave off the #1 Killer in America—heart attack. On today’s IMPACT SHOW episode, Dr. Parikh walks us through what it means to be a preventative cardiologist, why most heart attacks are 100% preventable, and how A.I.-powered Coronary CT scans are revolutionizing modern medicine. This is what is now being called Medicine 3.0 — and friends, it’s here. Here are some of the things we discuss: What is “preventative cardiology” and what exactly do you do? The 4 pillars of heart health and how you can improve each one of them. Why we have it wrong many times and WHY “normal” cholesterol doesn’t guarantee a healthy heart. The difference between soft plaque vs. hard plaque (this is BIG!); which one is “good” and which one is “bad.” What exactly is a CT heart scan and what do you look for? How the software & technology in a Coronary CT scan with A.I. plaque analysis & FFR shows the difference between “soft plaque” and “hard plaque” and your true risk of having a heart attack. What causes plaque buildup in the heart? How does the A.I. fit into all of this and what is its role? The million dollar question: “Can you reverse plaque buildup and if so, HOW?” Why sleep apnea (often called the “Silent killer”) can ultimately stress your heart and ultimately cause a heart attack/death. The power of early detection of heart disease and how a Coronary CT scan with A.I. plaque analysis can help prevent a coronary episode. Supplements & new meds that may reverse plaque. This is interesting! Why you must start testing NOW— even if you “feel fine.” What’s next in Medicine 3.0 and what is your role in this cutting-edge field? This is one of the most important episodes I’ve ever done. Again, it’s something near & dear to my heart (pardon the pun). If you have a family history of heart disease OR you just want to maximize your health and prevent heart disease, this is a MUST LISTEN to episode. If you love LIFE and want to stave off coronary disease or a heart attack, DO NOT MISS THIS ONE…your LIFE may depend on it. LISTEN. SHARE. SAVE A LIFE. If this hits home, please share it with someone you care about. You just might save their life.

When Life Falls Apart: How to Rebuild & Rise Again with Purpose & Power with Justin Prince | Ep. 424

When Life Falls Apart: How to Rebuild & Rise Again with Purpose & Power with Justin Prince | Ep. 424
This episode right here is going to fire you up, crack your heart wide open, and give you the fuel you need to keep chasing your God-sized dreams. Today, I’m joined by a brother, a warrior, a Kingdom-driven entrepreneur, and a man who is absolutely living a life worth telling a story about—Justin Prince. Justin has built five (5) multimillion-dollar businesses. He’s spoken all over the world. He’s the co-founder of Make Wellness, a brand that’s disrupting the health and supplement game. And he’s also the author of Be the One—a book that will punch you in the soul in all the best ways. What you’ll hear in today’s episode goes way beyond business. It’s about resilience, betrayal, faith, purpose, and trusting God even when you’re walking through the fire. What You’ll Get in This Power-Packed Episode: The painful betrayal that ended a successful 11-year run at the top—and how Justin used it as fuel to create something even greater. Why “trust the redirect” became his guiding phrase during his darkest season. How he went from flipping pizzas and selling Bible videos in a mall kiosk to building global companies. The power of identity-based success: why you’ll never outperform how you see yourself. What it really means to “Be the One” and create generational change. Why intentional living is the secret to fulfillment (and how a single moment with John Maxwell changed his life). The launch story behind Make Wellness, and how their bioactive peptides are revolutionizing health. How to win both races in life: success and fulfillment. The truth about money—and how it either magnifies or exposes who you really are. Quotes to Remember: “Success without fulfillment is the ultimate failure.” “You are the ONE. And you were born for such a time as this.” “They tried to bury us—but they didn’t realize we were seeds.” “Don’t just react to life—create it.” “You can't always control what happens, but you can control what happens next.” In this episode, Justin breaks down the six pillars of Make Wellness—including how their bioactive precision peptides are helping people build muscle, burn fat, increase energy, reduce stress, and improve focus—all with nature-based, clinically-backed science. Justin also shares how to lead yourself first, then your team, your family, and your business from a place of alignment and soul-level clarity. If you’re walking through fire, if you’re in a season of setbacks, or if you’re questioning your next move—this episode is a reminder that God is in the details, and your comeback is just getting started.
