CONSISTENT by Primal Potential

We've been talking a lot lately about this idea of your personal brand and rebranding yourself in a way that raises your performance to a higher standard. In episode 480 I introduced the idea for a Primal Potential rebrand and in episodes 481, 484 and 485 I shared some of my Masters Club clients rebrands. Those episodes generated a TON of enthusiasm & excitement as well as a bunch of questions. In...

This episode is explicit. This is a real conversation with a client who has struggled with body shame, self-criticism and simply being unkind to herself. While working on a personal rebrand, we have a candid conversation about where she has held her treatment of others to a different standard than the one she has for herself. It's not right. More than that, it's taking joy from her life and causin...

Last week, I had a powerful call with one of my Primal Potential Masters Club friends. We were talking about how she wanted to rebrand herself. We're doing this to give us a great sense of certainty & direction that will help in all our many moments of decision making. Hotel behemoth MGM recently decided to rebrand themselves. In their video, they clarify their new brand : "We're not in the hotel...

What are the narratives you escape to that have nothing to do with what you're trying to achieve and where you're trying to go?

We have more bacterial cells than human cells. We have more bacterial DNA than human DNA. There is no question that our microbiome has a massive impact on every single aspect of health. If there is an issue with your bacterial diversity or quantity, it will have an impact on your health. The bacteria, viruses and fungi that make up your microbiome play a massive role in digestion, metabolism and b...

As I shared in episode 480, I'm working to help my Master's Club clients create new personal brands. It's an amazingly fun project & today I'm sharing a bit of it with you!

Listen to the episode for more! https://prim...

It's not about becoming someone different. It's about, in any moment, choosing to BE different. Choosing something different. Transformation is later. It's not after weight loss.

It matters. https://primalpotential.com/480/ Resources: Join t...

I don't watch much television but I really enjoy Showtime's Billions. On a recent episode, Wendy Rhoades, an in-house psychiatrist for a prominent hedge fund, is counseling a one of the firm's executives.

Do you ever read something that makes you immediately level up your actions or effort? I sure do and I love it when that happens! I'm no longer intrigued by things that sound nice.

One of my favorite parts of my 12 week coaching groups is when I get to chat on the phone with people, talk about where they are at and collaborate on creating solutions. Last week I had a powerful conversation about how our thoughts & words are like a compass - the point us in a given direction. We can really accelerate our progress when we consider the direction in which a given thought or decla...

The other day I listened to Dan Heath share a story about college professors. It really moved me & inspired this episode. Here's a quick summary of the story he told. A group of college professors were asked what one or two things they'd want their students to remember 10 years later. Of all the things they'd teach, what was most important that they carry with them, understand or know how to do ye...

Just because you could lose more weight or you want to lose more weight, doesn't mean you're a failure if you aren't seeing results.  We need to stop being ashamed of maintenance or plateaus.  We need to see them as critical parts of the process that shouldn't be fought or rushed.  One of the best ways to ensure the change you've worked hard to create is permanent is to prove your ability to maint...
