CHASING GREATNESS | Ep. 249 May 16, 2022

Show notes

Is there another level inside of you? I believe each of us is on a journey for the perpetual pursuit of excellence and to become the best version of one's self. Can I get an "Amen" to that?

Today's IMPACT Show is kicking off a new series I'm calling "Chasing Greatness." It will help you in ALL walks of life. We all have greatness inside of us and I want to help rip it out. Today is the day to commit or recommit, to being your best self and lighting up the world with more of YOUR GREATNESS.

In today's episode, I challenge Merriam-Webster's definition of greatness with my own personal definition of greatness and means of measurement. We're also going to talk about the traits and habits of the people I view as great, introduce you to some "great" people, and the IMPACT they have made on me, their community, and the world. These are some of the "greatest" athletes, entrepreneurs, military personnel, and inspirational people of our era.

Specifically, here is what you can expect on today's IMPACT SHOW:

- TD's definition of greatness.

- Who are some of "The Greats" and that you will hear from in the upcoming weeks.

- The traits & habits of "the greats."

- "Great" questions to ask yourself in your pursuit of excellence.

- How to perpetually pursue your best self AND find joy and fulfillment in the process of becoming the best version of YOU.

I hope you enjoy this episode and tune in for the full "Chasing Greatness" series. I know you are going to love it and be inspired to release your inner greatness. 2 things:

The Gift of Grit, Grief, and Gratitude | Ep. 248 with Lisa Herrington May 09, 2022

Show notes

This is the story of a former intern and employee, turned business owner, who has gone from personal tragedy to amazing triumph. Today's show is going to help anyone who is down & out, in a funk, grieving, experiencing loss, or needing hope for a brighter tomorrow. It really is an inspirational story of a young woman who has used tremendous grit and gratitude to overcome deep loss and grief.

10-years ago to the week, coach Lisa Herrington gave birth to her twin boys. Unfortunately, one of a parent's worst nightmares happened when one of her sons did not make it. It was a dark, paralyzing time of her life when she hit the depths of despair and depression.

After grieving and processing the loss over a period of years, Lisa and her husband Greg Herrington, have turned darkness into an amazing light. She has started a non-profit foundation in her son Brady's name, written a book on grief, serves parents who have endured similar losses, and continues to change lives at her FIT House gym in Davis, Ca.

Today's podcast is NOT about grief. It's actually an empowering story of a woman and family who have turned this tragedy into some amazing IMPACT.

Here is what you can expect in today's IMPACT SHOW:

- How Lisa's time as an intern and trainer at FQ10 set her up for career success.

- The 7 phases of grief and how each is an important part of the healing process.

-Identifying triggers and finding the tools to manage grief.

-The importance of physical & emotional fitness is in the healing process.

-Ways to honor your loss and move forward.

-The importance of the Brady Randolph Herrington Community Foundation and how she loves leading her foundation.

- What it's like being a Mom of 4 kids now and how they still honor Brady today.

- The power of laughter, crying, and gratitude in healing and living life.

This episode addresses the important topic of loss and how to work through the healing process and find your joy and gratitude again. It is about grit and it is about gratitude. It's about understanding how easy it is to lose yourself when you are going through loss of any kind, much less the tragedy of losing a child. It is about making a list of who you were and what you loved about yourself 'before,' that will help you through the journey and give you the strength to find yourself again. This episode is about surviving. It is about turning tragedy into triumph. It is about taking all you've learned during your journey and helping others through theirs.

Enjoy the show. I think you are going to FEEL it all in this one. If you find value in today's IMPACT Show, please share it on Facebook, IG or text the link to a friend, family member, or colleague who would benefit from hearing it. This will help fulfill our mission to spread positive IMPACT world-wide and make this world a better place to be.

About Lisa Herrington:

Lisa Herrington is the Co-Founder and Owner of FIT House Davis. After almost a decade in marketing and public relations, she followed her passion, took the leap and opened a full-service boutique fitness studio which employs 40+ people and offers 70+ classes per week. After losing her first-born son (a twin) she realized how important exercise was not just for the physical body, but for the mind. She often refers to her line of work as movement therapy; an act that strengthens the body, mind, and soul.

Lisa is a best-selling author and manages the Brady Randolph Herrington Community Foundation, while also being a mom of 4, wife, and lover of waterskiing, snow- skiing, the ocean and a good Cabernet.

I.M.P.A.C.T. 2.0—A New Acronym to help Teams, Companies, & Individuals Win in Business & Life | EP. 247 May 02, 2022

Show notes

IMPACT is a way of life. Today, I have a new version of the I.M.P.A.C.T. acronym that is going to help you in different facets of life. While it builds on the "IMPACT 1.0" version, this one is geared more towards teams, companies, and individuals who are striving to maximize culture, build winning teams, and win in business and life.

Specifically, in a new generation of building culture and team, I talk about the importance of leadership, connecting, & teamwork in a new era and how to do exactly that. Additionally, I talk about if you are facing tough times personally or professionally, how to keep battling and getting through adversity, and how to do things the "right way" and not the "easy way."

Ultimately, today's show is designed to get your mind right, give you some "juice," challenge you to live with deep conviction and purpose and create even more IMPACT. If it succeeds in doing so, please share it on your FB or IG or text the link to a friend, family member, teammate, or colleague at work.

5 Reasons You May Not Be Losing Weight that Have Nothing to Do with Diet or Exercise | Ep. 246 Apr 25, 2022

Show notes

Diet and exercise are a big part of you looking, feeling, and being your absolute best. But sometimes you can be busting your tail at the gym and eating pretty clean and you don't yield the results you desire. This often leads to frustration, complacency, or falling off the wagon because you're not sure why your hard efforts, consistency, and discipline are not paying off with better results.

There is hope! Today, I have Dr. Carleigh GoLightly back on the show to talk about why you may NOT be losing weight that has nothing to do with diet or exercise. Specifically, we talk about the importance of things such as hormones, blood sugar levels, gut health, stress levels, and believe it or not, the amount of time you are exposed to cold (cryo) as key aspects of your body's make-up and how they need to be in balance in order to maintain healthy body weight. Additionally, we cover anti-aging, peptide therapy, brain fog, and the connection of gut health to obesity, diabetes, and Alzheimer's.

There is some great information shared in this episode and you're probably going to want to come back to it more than once. If you do find value in today's show, please share it with anyone you know who's working their tail off and not seeing the results they want. I believe it will help them and positively IMPACT their life. BOOM!

Noteworthy Quotes from this Episode:

"Man. Because he sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health.

~ The Dalai Lama (when asked what surprised him most about humanity)

The Journey of Parenting Through Addiction & Incarceration | Ep. 242 with Travis & Cyndy Barnes Mar 28, 2022

Show notes

Today's episode is one that's going to blow your mind. It's a story with a great friend of mine who spent 10-years incarcerated, overcame addiction, and is now parenting a child who faces the same challenges and addictions he did.

Travis & and his wife of 22-years, Cyndy Barnes, go deep today and share the obstacles surrounding drug addiction, a 10-year prison sentence, life reestablishment, health issues, and now a daughter who is incarcerated and pregnant. You will also learn how Travis and Cyndy have managed to survive it all because of their love for each other, their faith in God, a lot of hard work, and their desire to overcome! They are living proof that love can conquer all.

When you talk about vulnerability, authenticity, resilience, faith, and IMPACT, this episode has it ALL. Travis and Cyndy epitomize IMPACT and are now doing amazing things in their community and through their "ministry work" at Journey Fitness 333. This episode is raw and full of insight, for adults and kids, about the influence of your surroundings, anxiety, stress, and fighting to find yourself and your personal identity. If you're a parent, please listen to this episode and have an open and honest discussion with your entire family.

I leave you with one of my favorite verses, Proverbs 3:5-6: Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.

You're Stronger Than You Think | Ep. 240 with Janet Bertrand Mar 14, 2022

Show notes

Anyone facing any challenges out there these days? Whether it's health, mindset, career, finances, or even parenting, these struggles can take a toll on you. In my continuing series on "Unbreakable," I've been spotlighting some everyday people who I find tremendously resilient and inspiring.

Today's guest is someone I've known and worked with for 20-years. Her name is Janet Bertrand. Janet started out as an intern at Fitness Quest 10 and then became a personal trainer and coach and she's been an important part of our FQ10 team ever since. She's changed thousands of lives in her career, all while many times dealing with a lot of adversity "off the field."

In today's episode, Janet and I have a deep conversation about training, parenting, and life. She also shares her most recent challenging journey she's had with her daughter Lauren who has been suffering from substance abuse for more than 10 years. Janet shares the daily mindset necessary when facing tough times, the one thing she always does to deal with the stress, pressure, and depression that can creep up, and how and why she maintains faith in all that she does. She also shares why she keeps "Showing Up!"

This is a must-listen-to episode as it's going to strike a chord with many of you. The strength that Janet has of mind, body, and spirit is why I describe her as "unbreakable" and why I'm pumped for you to hear her inspirational story. Amazing.
