| 0:07.8 | a podcast by Primal Potential that is for all of you who feel frustrated by your lack of progress or |
| 0:14.0 | overwhelmed by all the change that you want to make in your life. Here, we stop frantically chasing new habits and start |
| 0:22.6 | strategically building a structure of consistency. Let's get into it. Hello, everybody, |
| 0:30.6 | welcome back to the primal potential podcast. I am Elizabeth Benton. Thanks so much for joining me. |
| 0:35.1 | If you have ever felt like I'm not really sure |
| 0:38.1 | what I want or I know what I want, but I'm not doing what it takes to get there and feeling |
| 0:43.1 | frustrated by either one of those, you are in the right place today. Let me tell you what prompted |

| 1:59.2 | what if you were to make a list of 300 desires? And so I took on |
