1325: 12 Critical Lessons That Will Transform Your Journey (And Life)
It's Primal Potential's 11 year anniversary! Eleven years. One mission. Thousands of transformations. And a dozen lessons that changed everything. In today’s special anniversary episode, I’m reflecting on 11 years of Primal Potential by sharing 12 of the most powerful, real-life lessons I’ve learned in business, coaching, personal growth, parenting, and beyond. (Yes, 12 lessons in 11 years because let’s be honest, I’ve learned more in some years than others 😂) But FIRST: something big is coming. I usually make a special offer on Primal's anniversary, but not this year... Because what’s coming is different. Really different. ✅ It’s never been done. ✅ It’s for the people who struggle to follow through. ✅ It’s built for the chaos — not the perfect conditions. ✅ It’s not a new version of something old — it’s a new category. ✅ It’s limited to just 20 people. And it starts right after Labor Day. 🚨 If you’ve ever said: “I always start strong, but I never stick with it.” “I don’t want to buy another thing I won’t finish.” “I just don’t trust myself to follow through...” ...this is for YOU. 🎯 The only way to be first in line is to join the waitlist now - click here.

In this powerful episode, I’m sharing a message that started with a simple post: “The world needs more men with good intent who are physically, financially, and spiritually dangerous.” But I want to take that message deeper — and broader — to what it means for us as women, as parents, as people who want to live at our fullest potential. 👉 This episode isn’t about causing harm. It’s about becoming so capable, so prepared, so anchored, that you’re dangerous to excuses, to inertia, to anything that keeps you small. If the word dangerous doesn’t sit right, that’s okay. Call it formidable. Call it unstoppable. The mission matters more than the word. What You’ll Hear in This Episode ✅ Why becoming financially formidable means building options — not obstacles ✅ What physical formidability really looks like (and why it has nothing to do with vanity) ✅ How spiritual formidability keeps you anchored through life’s storms ✅ How to start small and stay consistent — without dismissing your progress ✅ Why the world needs you maxed out, not playing small Ready to become formidable? 👉 The truth is: the mission isn’t perfection. The mission is consistent action — in your finances, your fitness, your faith. If you’re ready to build the habits that make you unstoppable, join me inside The Consistency Course. This is where we move from good intentions to real action, together. ➡ Learn more and sign up at primalpotential.com/get-consistent/

1321: Becoming Harder to Offend: The Truth About Judgment
n this episode, we’re diving deep into something that holds so many of us back: the fear of being judged. Maybe you don’t avoid walking in your neighborhood, but maybe you’ve skipped going to the gym, avoided putting on a swimsuit, or stayed silent in a room because you were worried what someone might think. 👉 Here’s the truth: we all judge. We all get judged. And what matters is what we do with that reality. Today I’m sharing: A client’s honest and beautiful reflection on how fear of judgment kept her from walking outside — and how she’s working to break free of that. How recognizing our own judgment can help soften the sting when we feel judged by others. The critical difference between judgment (observation) and mistreatment (unkindness or discrimination). Why becoming harder to offend is one of the most powerful choices you can make. Tools and mindset shifts you can start practicing today so that fear of judgment doesn’t cost you your joy, your memories, or your goals. 💡 Key takeaway: Recognizing our own judgment softens our offense at others’. The next time you feel judged, pause. Remember: you’ve judged too — and that’s part of being human. What matters is how you show up for your life anyway.

Why are we so stressed & overwhelmed? Why do we have clear & compelling goals but fail to reach them? How can we want to change so desperately yet make choices that keep us from that change? Because we keep focusing on the habits we want instead of building the skill of consistency that allows us to achieve them. Consistency is a skill. It's a superpower. It isn't one-size-fits all. It unlocks any door and makes every goal achievable. A more effective, realistic approach starts here.
