CONSISTENT by Primal Potential

For the longest time, I was chasing change but not true transformation, and my results showed it. I stayed in the struggle for decades. So many of us find ourselves chasing the same goals for months—maybe even years—without ever feeling like we truly get there. But what if the issue isn't a lack of effort, but rather the approach itself? In today's episode, I'm breaking down the crucial difference between change and transformation and why this distinction matters more than you might think. I'll share my own personal experience of shifting from temporary change to deep, lasting transformation and how identity-based consistency plays a key role in making sustainable progress. Plus, we'll dive into the power of setting personal standards, why root work is essential for breaking free from old habits, and a simple but powerful mindset shift that can help you create real, lasting results. If you've ever felt stuck in a cycle of "starting over," this episode is for you!
