Are you exhausted… but still can't slow your mind down? Are you showing up, grinding, training, working hard, trying to do all the right things… but deep down, you still feel OFF? In this week's episode of the Todd Durkin IMPACT SHOW, I'm speaking straight from experience as I know many people are dealing with a ton right now: stress, overwhelm, anxiety, and a
nervous system that's completely fried. My friends, this episode is not just about training harder or "getting your mind right." It's about learning how to recover, reset, and reclaim your energy so you can start feeling like YOU again. If you've been feeling wired and tired, this episode may be exactly what your body, mind, and soul need today.

Here's what I'm breaking down in this episode:

• Why chronic stress is silently sabotaging your energy, health, recovery, and performance
• The connection between cortisol, inflammation, poor sleep, anxiety, and fat loss
• What it really means to have a dysregulated nervous system
• Why you feel exhausted and anxious at the same time
• How fight-or-flight mode impacts your body, mind, and emotions
• Why you can't outwork chronic stress with more hustle
• The importance of intentional recovery and "mellow yellow" time
• My favorite recovery tools including sauna, cold plunge, compression boots, massage therapy, red light therapy, walks, breath work, and stillness
• How to shift from stress mode into true recovery mode
• My simple recovery protocol you can start implementing immediately
• The power of better sleep habits and my 3-2-1 nighttime recovery routine
• Why recovery is one of the most important performance strategies you can prioritize right now

My friends, hear me on this… you do NOT need to do more right now. You need to recover better. And when you begin to prioritize your recovery, everything changes. Your energy changes. Your mindset changes. Your performance changes. Your outlook changes. And most importantly, you start to get your LIFE back again.

This week we dive into my last 8 mentors and all they have meant to me.
This one is deep and has a lot of lessons and wisdom embedded in it.
These people have greatly impacted my life on many levels. This includes lessons from Robin Sharma, Pastor Miles McPherson, Dave Ramsey, Ali Brown, LaDainian Tomlinsion, Drew Brees, and both my mother and father.

Some of the lessons included in Part 2 of this series on Mentorship includes:

• My top lessons from Dave Ramsey on business, money, and life. Woah!
• Ali Brown and how her workshop in 2006, which came at a really challenging time, literally changed my life.
• Robin Sharma, and how this long-time mentor has taught me a lot, not only on business, but by living with heart, being guided by passion & purpose, and serving people unequivocally.
• Pastor Miles McPherson and how his discipleship over 28-years has significantly impacted my faith development and the many lessons I have learned.
• Drew Brees and LaDaianian Tomlinson used to train together with me. While I trained them undeniably hard, they have also taught me a few lessons on their journey of both becoming "Hall-of-Famers."
• My Mom & Dad. My greatest mentors taught me a lot about life. While both are no longer with us, their lessons and legacy live on forever.

Here are a few question(s) I have for you?
1. What have your mentor(s) taught you. Please share.
2. What lesson did you learn from a previous mentor that you can get back to applying today?
3. How are you best mentoring others these days?
