A huge turning point in my health and weight loss journey was getting out of debt. I know that might seem weird, but it's true. The lessons I learned while getting out of debt taught me so much about health, fitness and even starting a business. For example: the little things do matter when you're getting out. The $2 coffee matters. The little things can get you into big trouble. Alternatively, they can transform your life for the better. In today's episode, having just celebrated 4 years in business, I'm sharing 4 lessons I learned in business that are actively improving my life every day! I hope you enjoy them! https://primalpotential.com/502 Resources: Are you new to Thrive Market?

At your request, today I'm sharing an incredible client success story. When Louise first found Primal Potential, she felt out of control. Her marriage was in trouble, her finances were on the rocks, she was overweight, stressed out and turning to food & alcohol for comfort. In the last (almost) two years, she has created transformation in every aspect of her life. She would tell you that her 60 pound weight loss is the least of the changes she's made. She infinitely calmer, happier and more in control. Her marriage has improved, her business has improved and she's enjoying her life more. I can't wait to share our conversation with you in today's episode! https://primalpotential.com/501/ Resources: Get on the wait list for the Fall 2018 12 Weeks to Transformation Follow me on Instagram

It's our 500th episode! We actually passed this milestone a while back, because I didn't start out naming the Q&A episodes, but this is "officially" episode 500! On top of that, today is Primal Potential's 4th anniversary! The very most important thing on this day is YOU! From the bottom of my heart - thank you for being a part of the Primal Potential family. There would be no Primal Potential without you. For every email you've sent, for every episode you've listened to & blog you've read - thank you! I cannot to see the changes we make together over the next 500 episodes! We are really extending the celebration over here! I asked you all what you wanted to hear for the 500 episode and you gave so many great suggestions. Some of you wanted to hear an update episode with me & my mom. That aired in episode 497. Some of you wanted to hear success stories from clients who have created transformations. One of those aired in episode 498 and another is coming in episode 501. Some of you asked to interview me and that's what we're doing today! For episode 500, the Primal Potential Masters Club has turned the table and they are asking me about Primal Potential, my struggles and successes and where I want the podcast to go from here! I hope you and enjoy it & thanks so much for helping me celebrate! https://primalpotential.com/500/

Every week, I have a live Q&A webinar with clients in my 12 Weeks to Transformation groups. This past week, there was an obvious theme to the questions that came up: guilt. In today's episode, we're talking about guilt that stems from the story we create around our choices. We unlock a powerful truth: you create the story. You can always create a new one. You are the master story teller and meaning maker in your life. As you create these stories are food, alcohol, relationships, workouts or anything else - how do you feel? How do you feel when you believe those thoughts? Do you want to continue to endorse that belief? In today's episode I'm sharing part of the challenge I gave my clients. I had them do 3 things: Identify a story that isn't working and/or doesn't reflect what you want Define a new story Practice the new story daily in both thought and action This is an episode you won't want to miss! https://primalpotential.com/499/ Resources: Get on the wait list for the Fall 2018 12 Weeks to Transformation!

We have so much to celebrate this week! We're closing in on our 500th episode and it's also Primal Potential's 4 year anniversary! Last week I asked you all how you wanted to celebrate the 500th episode and many of you suggested hear from some of my clients who have created success and change. Today we're doing just that! You're going to hear from Amber - a working mom who has lost 120 pounds in the last 18 months. While that's crazy impressive, the weight loss isn't the primary change she made. In fact, the weight loss is a result of the changes she made to the way she thinks. She's going to share how she made these changes and some of the biggest mindset tools that are helping her along the way. https://primalpotential.com/498/ Resources: Get on the wait list for the Fall 2018 12 Weeks To Transformation Episode 497 - Family Dynamics and Relationships Follow me on Instagram

What a special episode! Today I'm sharing a conversation with both my mom & my sister where we answer a handful of questions from the Primal Potential Masters Club & my summer 12 Weeks to Transformation Veterans.

The other day, I got a wonderful question via Instagram direct message. Here's what it said: "You're younger than I am and you have your stuff figured OUT!!! How did you get to the point where you stopped binging, stopped making excuses and got consistent?" I still make excuses. I just have a practice of challenging them and demanding of myself the whole truth. In today's episode, I'm giving some examples of how I do that so I can be stronger than my excuses.

All or nothing is about cycles of intensity & avoidance. All or nothing approaches to fat loss overlook the key to success: consistent execution of the basics. We love dramatic approaches that create dramatic results, even if they aren't sustainable. Here's the thing: it's not sexy, it's not glamorous and it's not exciting but it is both effective and sustainable: know your basics and ruthlessly pursue consistency. In today's episode we're talking about what it looks like when we skip the basics and pursue intensity and how to create a much more effective approach. https://primalpotential.com/495/ Resources: Primal Potential Episode 369: Chasing Excellence Chasing Excellence by Ben Bergeron Follow me on Instagram

The other day, I posted on Instagram that more often than not, it's our internal conditions that need to change, not our external ones. We're so quick to place blame on our external circumstances: we don't have enough time, we don't have enough money. Our work schedule is crazy. We don't have enough support. However, when you realize that your lack of progress & lack of consistency are more about your internal conditions than your external ones, you're in a major place of power. Your internal conditions include your thoughts, words, attitude & perspective, to name a few. In today's episode, we're diving into the how of this. How, exactly, do we do this work to change our internal conditions? I've got you covered!
