Thoughts from my 35,000 Foot Spa Retreat

Welcome to my “35,000-foot spa retreat.” Today’s episode is my deep thoughts, introspection, and excitement from 35,000 feet last week as I was flying to Nashville, TN, for my TD Mastermind Retreat. It’s no secret that I do some of my best work in the sky, and I wanted to share some rarified air with you today. I think you are going to like this one!

Part 1 of today’s episode is me up in the plane heading over to Nashville and sharing some of my thoughts and “coaching” lessons that I would be facilitating throughout the 4-days with my Mastermind group. It includes what gets you juiced, what drains you, what’s currently holding you back, what’s going to help propel you forward, and when you are at a “fork in the road,” how do you navigate the fork.

Part 2 of today’s episode is heading back home with my Top 5 takeaways and lessons from the Mastermind weekend. We had 20 fire-breathing dragons sharing their souls “live” and I believe you will find great value in deep introspection and thoughts from the trip. Also, I leave you with 7-Deep questions to answer and share. I know they will get you thinking deeply, acting bravely, and becoming even more a man or woman of “IMPACT.”

Fasten up your seat-belt and cozy up in a seat in the same row. Even though we will keep that middle-seat open right now, you are going to enjoy this conversation from 35,000 feet. Time to go “wheels-up.”

If you find value from this episode, please share the link with your friends, family, and co-workers. And if you could share it on your Facebook or Instagram, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you in advance, as it helps me fulfill my mission to positively impact the world and spread more positivity, motivation, and inspiration worldwide.

Be sure to share this episode on your social media, and please tag me on.

:44 – Part 1 – What I’m most excited for – Think, Write, and Create

 #1. A 4 Hour SPA retreat at 35,000 feet

 #2. Connect live with 20 passionate and committed Fit Pros from the TD Mastermind

  • What are the things YOU are most grateful for these days?
  • WHO in your life are you most grateful for these days?
  • WHAT are some of your top lessons learned in the last 8-months? And what are you doing to apply then to TODAY’s times?
  • Business-wise, where is your focus now, and IS that where it should be? Or do you NEED to be focusing on something else?
  • If you are at a FORK IN THE ROAD in your life or your career, what are you going to do? And WHEN are you going to do it?

#3. A change in the routine. Love to travel and seeing new cities.

9:48 – Part 2 – I’m so excited to spend this 4-hour flight to get some work done and watch Sunday night football…Saints vs. Bucs!  

Here are my takeaways from Nashville

12:15 – #1. The Power of Human Connection

13:48 – #2. Don’t let “Creep” set in…Stay in the zone and don’t get stale.

16:30 – #3. “If all we are is what we have, then when we lose what we have, then we lose who we are” — Wayne Dyer
Don’t be guided by ego; let your divine purpose and faith guide you!

18:08 – #4. Simple is not always easy – Be a leader and ask your team these 5 questions:

  • Where are you succeeding professionally?
  • Where do you have opportunities to improve right now?
  • What do you do to improve in that area?
  • If you were to improve in that area, what would be possible?
  • What can I do to help you specifically?

Don’t ask for feedback…ask for advice.

21:31 – #5. Stay connected to your Soul, your Spirit, your Faith, and your Purpose!

22:30 – Final Thoughts 

#1. What is giving you the juice right now?
#2. What’s draining you – do less of them.
#3. What’s your purpose, and why?
#4. If you knew you couldn’t and wouldn’t fail and live with no regrets, what would you do?
#5. If you knew you had only six months to live, what would you do?
#6. What does the end of your year look like for you?  Frame it up.
#7. What are you going to do to take action today?

Todd has been a huge blessing to our church, ministry, family, and me personally. Not only has he trained me and become a close friend, but he’s spoken at our church many times. If you are looking for someone to deliver some serious IMPACT, Todd will be a blessing to anyone in the room.

Working with Todd has been the best decision I have made in my pro career. The energy, focus, mentorship and elite training has brought me to new heights year after year.

“Get your mind right!” boomed over the speakers and the session took off like a rocket. After three long years, the Hand & Stone franchise community was gathering for our International Conference in San Antonio, TX. Our community had endured nearly three years of constant change, and we gathered to celebrate- both the rich history of the organization and the bold, new paths we were planning to walk in the future. In that space, Todd Durkin was the perfect choice to keynote our general session. The 800+ attendees were challenged, motivated, and most importantly inspired by TD’s incredibly dynamic session. Equal parts vision and actionable framework, Todd’s talk was one of the highlights of the conference, and our community left with a renewed purpose to become the very best of themselves.

John Teza

President & CEO, Hand and Stone Franchise Corp.

I have known Todd since 2012 when I read his ‘IMPACT Body Plan’ book. I have been to many of his events, read all his books, listen to his podcasts, have hired him multiple times to speak at my company, and I still get coached by him today. To say he’s been a big part of the success of Nassau FG and has also had huge IMPACT on me as a father, husband, and man is an understatement. Todd Durkin is the real-deal. When I say “Iron Sharpens Iron,” TD is one of those people who sharpens me. Let him sharpen you also!

Gus Cheliotis

GENERAL COUNSEL & COO, NASSAU FINANCIAL GROUP

The time that Todd spent with our Leadership Team was focused, intentional, and direct. He inspired us to refine how we lead ourselves and our team of 160 people to ensure we are making the most IMPACT possible in their lives, our clients’ lives, and our community. His energy is unmatched and his ability to connect with individuals is remarkable.

If you’re looking for a high impact experience for the men of your church that will challenge them at their core and inspire them to be more, then bring in Todd Durkin. His insatiable passion and real-life coaching will connect with the men and move them to live a life of high impact. I would highly recommend you get a ‘Dose of Durkin’!

Todd is one of the elite resources in the country when it relates to helping high-performing CEOs and leaders create even greater impact in their field or life. He is transformative in the manner in which he delivers his narrative in order to connect, engage, and achieve impact at the highest levels. He is one of the great change agents anywhere – helping leaders go from great to excellence. I am proud of his work with my clients, many leaders of publicly traded companies and high-functioning management teams, and with me personally. He is a life coach and leadership master to those who are in sports and business.

Brad Deutser

CEO + President, Deutser, LLC

We brought Todd in for a virtual keynote for our Leadership, Education, Advocacy, and Development Group for Women. It was amazing to see how he not only connected with everyone through the screen, but you could literally feel his energy and passion as if he was living on stage with us. He not only inspired us and reminded us of the grit needed to “Get your mind right,” but also gave us actionable habits and homework to be the best version of ourselves. Todd gave us an outstanding presentation and truly inspires greatness every day!

Susan Couch

SVP Business Banking Client Manager, Bank of America

We invited Todd to have an impact on our sales and account management teams – to inspire them to think about personal health and well-being and to do so on an intellectual, emotional, and spiritual level. His presentation translated to lasting behavior change amongst our associates. From the moment Todd began his presentation, the teams were transfixed by his genuine energy and powerful, impactful messages about personal growth and accountability to the organization. Although Todd has trained many famous athletes, I highly encourage company leaders to understand that his messages are applicable to everyone in all industries. When you invite Todd to be a part of your life, your organization, you better be careful – he will make you better.

I attended the Todd Durkin Mastermind retreat in White Fish, Montana, because I know that to be a successful fitness professional and entrepreneur, I need to stay lit up and energized. Members of the TD Mastermind are passionate and elite at what they do because they put in the work and help others along the way. The TD Mastermind is a place to feel supported, cared about, seen, and inspired to do more for others. We are all on a mission, and we can’t do it alone. The members, coaches, and of course, Todd inspire me to be better and to do more. With the help of the TD Mastermind, I will go back to my community inspired and equipped with tools that needed sharpening. Montana was glorious, but this trip was all about the people.

I attended the Todd Durkin Mastermind retreat in Whitefish, MT, and have been an Institute level member since 2019. As a younger fitness professional with 8 years in the industry, joining the Mastermind has been a Godsend for my personal, professional, and spiritual growth. The Todd Durkin Mastermind consists of some of the best and consummate fitness professionals/business owners around the world, but most importantly, a goldmine of good, genuine people. Our visions, careers, service to others, and legacies require us to go deep into who we are and what we do as professionals. However, it’s the high-level coaching, support of fellow members, and commitment to sharpening each other that take us to different levels. Iron sharpens Iron.

Tim Carter

TD Mastermind Member

Joining the Todd Durkin Mastermind has been one of the best decisions, both professionally and personally I’ve ever made. To be part of a community with heart-centered leaders, who truly want the best for each other, has positively spilled into all areas of my life. The coaching from each leader and member of the TD Mastermind is world-class, genuine, and personal and has helped me grow and lead my team. I’ve had a safe community to come with any struggle, hardship, or big decision that felt overwhelming to navigate alone. We give so much of our hearts and souls in this industry, it’s important to have a place to fill back up with. Coming together at retreats gives you all the octane and more to keep chasing dreams and changing lives. Investing in the mastermind and being part of this community has proved beyond my expectations in every way. If you want to be part of a team who sees your strength, pushes you to greatness, and is there to catch you when you fall – the TD Mastermind is where it’s at!

The Todd Durkin Mastermind is my extended fitness family. Each time we gather, we seem to grow even closer as time continues to change us and our businesses. It just feels right. It is not always about crunching numbers, the number of new sign-ups, or how many programs we have running. It runs much deeper. As we grow older relationships and time become more valuable. You have only so many more clicks of the clock and encounters and experiences. They should be spent with those who elevate you. The TD Mastermind does just that!
