1361: My Wildest Offer Ever

CONSISTENT by Primal Potential

This is the time of year when most people hit pause on their goals. They drift. They defer. They tell themselves, “I’ll get serious again in January.” But what if this season — the one most people treat like an exception — could actually be your turning point? In this episode, I’m talking about what I call Separation Season — the window of time between now and the New Year when small daily choices stack up and create the gap between stuck and unstoppable. And spoiler alert: it’s not about being perfect. It’s about recommitting, over and over again, in small ways that move the...

1359: The Most Effective Tool I've Used This Year

CONSISTENT by Primal Potential

Have you ever felt like you’re doing all the things, but something still feels off? Like you're trying to move forward, but something under the surface keeps pulling you back? What you’re tuned to — what you’re mentally calibrating to — matters more than anything else. In this episode, I’m sharing the mindset shift that’s anchoring me right now, and why it’s been a total game-changer for my clients. This isn’t about motivation. It’s about alignment.

1358: Why Discipline Feels Impossible (And What to Do About It)

CONSISTENT by Primal Potential

“Everybody wants to heal… until the medicine shows up in the form of discipline.” – Hippocrates (400 B.C.) Why is it so hard to do the things we say we want to do? In today’s episode, we’re digging into one of the biggest struggles so many of us face: discipline. Not just why it’s hard—but why it can feel almost impossible in today’s world. We’re not lazy. We’re not broken. We’re living in a world designed to hijack our brains through overstimulation and constant dopamine hits—from social media, processed food, streaming content, even the kind of books we read. In...

1357: Between All And Nothing - Clearing The Confusion

CONSISTENT by Primal Potential

We all know what all looks like — strict rules, clean eating, heavy discipline. And we definitely know what nothing looks like — throwing in the towel and saying, “Whatever, I’ll start over Monday.” But what about the middle? Why does it feel so hard to define… let alone stay in? In today’s episode, I’m unpacking a powerful conversation I had with a client who said something so many of us feel: “Navigating the middle feels lost — like no direction. It feels like too much freedom and an impossible place to navigate.” Especially this time of year — when schedules are...

1356: Rigging The Game Against Yourself (& How To Stop)

CONSISTENT by Primal Potential

A client recently said something that completely stopped me in my tracks: "My mindset determines the choices I'm going to make. Don't decide from a shitty mindset — otherwise, I’ve rigged the game against myself." Mic. Drop. It immediately made me reflect — how often do we do this? How often do we unconsciously (or consciously) make it harder to follow through, succeed, or feel good? In this episode, I’m sharing: What it actually means to rig the game against yourself How to recognize when you’re doing it (with real client stories + examples) What it looks like to rig it in...

1355: The Health Warning Sign You Can't Afford to Ignore

CONSISTENT by Primal Potential

You might feel fine. But chronic inflammation could still be running the show — silently disrupting your hormones, energy, digestion, mood, and metabolism. This episode pulls back the curtain on: Why chronic inflammation is the hidden driver behind so many frustrating symptoms (and major diseases) What you can measure — from blood to stool — to actually track it The difference between CRP and hs-CRP (and why it matters way more than you think) What your body fat, cortisol, gut health, and mitochondria have to do with inflammation And most importantly: what you can do this week...

1354: If You’re Always Last on Your List…

CONSISTENT by Primal Potential

If you’ve ever told yourself “I don’t have time to take care of myself” because you’re too busy taking care of everyone else — this one’s for you. Whether it’s your kids, your job, your partner, aging parents, or your community — a lot of us are constantly pouring out… while running on empty. In this episode, I’m sharing a concept from CrossFit — “core to extremity” — and how it changed the way I think about showing up for others. We’re talking about where real strength comes from, what happens when we don’t start at the center, and how taking care of yourself...

Episode Summary:
In this episode, I’m unpacking the new Netflix documentary Fit for TV about The Biggest Loser—and the uncomfortable parallels to today’s GLP-1 craze.

On The Biggest Loser, contestants were willing to humiliate themselves, punish their bodies, and risk their health for rapid results. Fast forward 20 years, and we’re seeing the same mentality play out in a different form—this time with injections.

Just like the show, GLP-1s promise dramatic, fast weight loss. But behind the glamor lies a dangerous truth: severe caloric restriction, significant muscle loss, and a metabolism that slows to a crawl. And when the meds stop—because of side effects, cost, or insurance changes—most people find themselves right back where they started, but worse off.

This isn’t about hating the drugs. It’s about raising a flag. It’s about questioning our obsession with extremes and asking: why are we willing to do the most drastic things for a quick fix, but so resistant to the slow, sustainable path that actually works?

The truth is, real change doesn’t come from the extremes. It comes from mastering the basics and building consistency—the thing no one wants to talk about because it feels too slow. But slow is the only way that lasts.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

Why Fit for TV is a cautionary tale for the GLP-1 craze
The hidden costs of extreme approaches—whether it’s reality TV or injections
How muscle loss and metabolic slowdown set you up for long-term struggle
Why the slow, unglamorous work is the only thing that sticks
How to shift out of the “one chance” mindset and into daily, consistent action
