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.  This will fill fast.

1322: Becoming Formidable — Financially, Physically, Spiritually

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. Resources Mentioned Join me in The Consistency Course! Let's work together to set you free from the patterns that are keeping your life small.  If you loved this episode... ✅ Share it with a friend who’s ready to stop letting fear of judgment hold them back. ✅ Tag me on Instagram @elizabethbenton with your biggest takeaway. ✅ Leave a review — it helps others find the show!

After dropping in your name and email, you'll be re-directed to all the resources.  🎙️ Ep. [Day 5] — The Missing Ingredient: Why You’re Not Meant to Do This Alone Description: We are drowning in advice yet still starving for real, lasting change. And it’s not because we’re lazy. It’s not a willpower issue. Most of the time, it’s not even strategy. It’s a relationship problem. In this final episode of the Pivot Point series, Elizabeth gets personal about the real reason so many of us keep quitting, circling, and spinning our wheels even when we “know better.” We’ve over-indexed on information and under-indexed on support. 💡 You might have 100 people who’ll wish you a happy birthday… but not one person who knows you’re slipping back into old habits. 💡 You might post your goals and get tons of “You’ve got this!” comments… but nobody texting you on Wednesday night when you’re ready to quit. If you’ve ever felt unseen, unsupported, or unsure why you can’t keep going, this episode will speak to you. It’s time to stop doing it all alone and start building the kind of connection that fuels real change. 🔑 In this episode: Why more info ≠ more progress (and what’s really missing) What surface-level connection is costing you The “butt power” lesson from Day 4 and why we abandon too soon A real story about someone stuck in the loop of overlearning and under-implementing How deep relationships, not hype or novelty, drive lasting change Why most of us are only as strong as our best day and how to tap into collective strength instead What to do if you’re an introvert, a solopreneur, or someone who’s “fine doing it alone” 🛠️ Resources & Next Steps: 💬 Download the prompts for today’s episode to go deeper 💡 Want to be seen, supported, and surrounded by others doing the work too?

If you aren't on my email list and want to get the emails and resources that go along with this message series, please click here. After dropping in your name and email, you'll be re-directed to all the resources.  Day 4: The Myth of Momentum & the Power of Staying You don’t need more motivation. You need more butt power. Yes, butt power. As in: stay on your butt. Don’t escape when it gets hard. Don’t jump ship for something shinier just because this path lost its sparkle. In today’s episode, Elizabeth shares the powerful story of an elementary school teacher who taught her students that the moment they feel stuck is the moment to stay. And how that principle — staying with the thing — might be the single most undervalued key to your consistency. Here’s what we get into: Why novelty isn’t a solution but more often avoidance The difference between energy that comes from hype and energy that comes from habit The illusion of a “new start” when what we really need is follow through How to identify where you keep abandoning what would actually work if you just stayed with it A powerful call to abide: to stay connected to your convictions when the feelings fade 💡 You’re not failing because you’re incapable. You’re just walking away too soon. 🎯 Don’t just listen — do. Grab today’s journal prompts here and walk through where you need to build staying power. And if you’re tired of walking this road alone, the Consistency Course is your place for support, structure, and momentum that lasts.

If you aren't on my email list and want to get the emails and resources that go along with this message series, please click here. After dropping in your name and email, you'll be re-directed to all the resources.  You can be right in the moment… and still be really wrong in the pattern. Today’s episode is a call to honesty. Not about whether a single choice “matters” but whether the pattern it belongs to is quietly killing your progress. Because here’s the trap: We justify what’s familiar. We rationalize what’s comfortable. We talk ourselves into “one more time” like it’s no big deal. But over and over again, we’re protecting the very behavior that’s holding us back. Inside this episode: Why “familiar” is not the same thing as “neutral” The hidden cost of being “right” in the moment A powerful lens to recognize when a pattern needs to be broken — even if the choice seems harmless The one question you must ask when justifying a pattern 🔥 This is the kind of honesty that moves the needle.
