Have you ever felt like you're doing all the "right"
things—building your career, chasing success, checking the
boxes—yet still feel like something is missing? If so, this episode
is going to hit you right between the eyes and straight into your
heart. This week on The Todd Durkin IMPACT Show, I sit down with a
young man I’ve been business/life coaching in my Mastermind for a
while. Brady Hutchins is a coach, author, and an overall
IMPACT-maker with a great story. Brady recently released his new
book, The God Within: Remembering Who You Are in
a World That Tells You Who to Be, and in this
episode, we unpack what it truly means to reconnect with your
authentic self in a world constantly pulling you
toward external validation.
Brady shares his deeply personal story of navigating
unimaginable adversity after a tragic car accident involving
his father and younger brother, the lessons he learned from
being forced to grow up fast, and how those experiences
ultimately shaped his life's purpose. We also dive into the
panic attack that became his wake-up call in 2022—a moment
that forced him to examine whether he was living in alignment
with who he truly was. Through powerful insights on identity,
purpose, faith, leadership, personal growth, and the
difference between living from fear versus living from love,
this conversation will challenge you to stop looking
outside yourself for answers and start reconnecting with the
greatness that already exists
within.
Whether you're a high performer, entrepreneur, athlete, coach, parent, or simply someone searching for deeper meaning and fulfillment, this episode will inspire you to remember who you are and step into your true calling.

This episode is a reminder that your greatest power isn't something you have to earn, achieve, or chase—it's already within you. The challenge is learning to quiet the noise, break free from the expectations of the world, and reconnect with the person God created you to be. Brady's story is proof that even our greatest struggles can become the foundation for our greatest purpose when we're willing to do the inner work.
