Summary

It's Primal Potential's 11 year anniversary!

Eleven years. One mission. Thousands of transformations. And a dozen lessons that changed everything.

In today’s special anniversary episode, I’m reflecting on 11 years of Primal Potential by sharing 12 of the most powerful, real-life lessons I’ve learned in business, coaching, personal growth, parenting, and beyond.

(Yes, 12 lessons in 11 years because let’s be honest, I’ve learned more in some years than others 😂)

But FIRST: something big is coming.

I usually make a special offer on Primal's anniversary, but not this year...

Because what’s coming is different. Really different.

✅ It’s never been done.
✅ It’s for the people who struggle to follow through.
✅ It’s built for the chaos — not the perfect conditions.
✅ It’s not a new version of something old — it’s a new category.
✅ It’s limited to just 20 people.

And it starts right after Labor Day.

🚨 If you’ve ever said:

“I always start strong, but I never stick with it.”
“I don’t want to buy another thing I won’t finish.”
“I just don’t trust myself to follow through...”
...this is for YOU.

0:00.0	If you want to be more consistent, you're in the right place. I'm Elizabeth Benton. Welcome to
0:07.1	Consistent, a podcast by Primal Potential that is for all of you who feel frustrated by your lack of
0:13.3	progress or overwhelmed by all the change that you want to make in your life. Here, we stop frantically
0:20.5	chasing new habits and start
0:22.6	strategically building a structure of consistency. Let's get into it.
0:28.6	Hello, everybody. Welcome back to the primal potential podcast. I am Elizabeth Benton, and today
0:34.3	is a big day. A lot of you guys know this, but July 12th is Primal Potential's
0:39.4	anniversary, and it's also my birthday. And I am so proud. I actually had to re-record this intro because I
0:46.5	kept saying it was 12 years. It's 11 years today, which I'm so excited about. When I started
0:52.9	Primal Potential a lifetime ago, it seems, I was living in a
0:56.7	different area of the country. I was married to a different person. I didn't have any kids. I also
1:00.8	had no business plan. I thought, I'm going to leave my job. I had a six-figure job at the time.
1:06.2	I'm going to leave my job and I'm going to be a blogger. You can tell that was 2013-ish energy. And about a week into it,
1:13.8	I realized I hate blogging. And yet, somehow, we are still here through many evolutions of business
1:21.4	and offering, but also life. I mean, hello, I've had four kids. I've had two husbands in that time, multiple
1:31.3	homes, and here we are. I'm acutely aware that there would be no primal potential if it wasn't you,
1:39.1	if it wasn't for you being here, for you listening, for your emails, for your questions, for your trust, for your
1:45.2	interest, for your passion. So I think the most important thing to express today is just
1:52.2	tremendous gratitude. And I would love to encourage you. If you have a dream and you don't know
1:57.8	how it's going to happen, build it as you go. Because if we wait till
2:02.4	we have the perfect plan that we're sure is flawless, we will never do it. I didn't have a plan,
2:07.6	so it definitely wasn't perfect. And every plan I've had in the last 11 years has unfolded
