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\u2019t know Travis, he\u2019s 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\u2019s also a man of faith, incredible perseverance, and someone I truly respect. In this week\u2019s episode, Travis interviews me on all the BIG NEWS, with the recent announcement of IXP\u2014San Diego. We talk everything from faith, fear, vision, purpose, and what it\u2019s 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\u2019s beauty in being scared, and how every chapter of growth requires us to let go, step up, and lead with heart. Here\u2019s some of what we dive into: The backstory behind IMPACT-X San Diego\u2014what it really is, who it\u2019s for, and why it\u2019s more than just another gym. The difference between Fitness Quest 10 and this next chapter\u2014and how experience, faith, and team play a huge role. The beauty in the grind and why being scared is often a sign you\u2019re exactly where you\u2019re 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\u2019s supporting me unequivocally. Reflections from my 2001 self (25-years ago) to my 75-year-old future self\u2014and the lessons learned in between. The power of gratitude, faith, and family, and how Melanie\u2019s support has been the foundation through every chapter. My friends, ask yourself this week: \u201cWould my younger self say \u2018thank you\u2019 to the person you are today?\u201d If not, what do you need to change\u2014today\u2014to make thatanswer a \u201cyes\u201d? And while you\u2019re at it, reach out to someone who\u2019s impacted your life. Shoot them a message. Say thank you. Speak life into them. This episode is near and dear to my heart. It\u2019s raw. It\u2019s real. It\u2019s about faith over fear, purpose over comfort, and trusting the process even when you can\u2019t see the finish line. I hope it inspires you to chase your calling with courage, gratitude, and a deep trust that there\u2019s beauty in every step\u2014even the scary ones. With that being said, BUCKLE-UP. IMPACT-X Performance (San Diego) is about 90-days away and I haven\u2019t felt this level of excitement in a long, long time.
