Building emotional resilience is one of the most powerful steps toward happiness, confidence, peace of mind and consistency but it certainly requires intentionality and practice.
In today’s episode we’re talking about how to go about creating this barrier to emotional volatility and how to enforce personal boundaries while practicing emotional resilience.

Was insult intended?
Do I know for sure?
What assumptions have I made?
Am I focused on the problem or the solution?

What is the difference between what actually happened (the facts) and what I added to the story (assumptions/intent/feelings)?
What have I added to the facts?
What else could this mean?

What are your core values? Do you show up with honesty & kindness for others but not for yourself?
Do you feel like you’re a great leader in you work or for your family but you aren’t leading yourself?
Today I’m talking with leadership expert Kareen Walsh about how to become a more effective leader of yourself and you won’t want to miss it!
One of my favorite parts of the conversation is when Kareen reminds us all to give ourselves permission to show up as the version of ourselves we want to be TODAY.
She talks us through what we can do when we know our core values, or we know what we want them to be, but we aren’t making choices accordingly.

Are you keeping yourself from big wins in the areas of your goals because you settle for little wins? Are you taking the perspective of “good enough” or “better than before”? You might be holding yourself back in a big way!
I started thinking about this as my Winter 12 WT clients went through their good/better/best challenge and then just a few days later I heard Chris Harder talking about not letting easy money keep you from big money.
In today’s motivational minisode, we’re diving into an honest look at how we hold ourselves back and what we can do to break free from the confines of our comfort zone and small wins.

Mental wellness drives physical wellness. Without a strong mental game, it’s just a house of cards. You don’t want to miss today’s episode! I’m interviewing one of the most positive, enthusiastic women I know: Brooke Thomas.
When I asked her what she’s most passionate about sharing, she told me her incredible story that led her to the realization that mental wellness trumps physical wellness.
We dive into strategies for when you feel stuck or burdened by the life you designed. It’s a powerful conversation about creating the life you want, slowing down to speed up and not settling for less than what you’re capable of.

What is carb sensitivity? How do you know if you’re carb sensitive? In today’s episode, we’re answering listener questions about carbs, sugar addiction, the best foods when you’re on a budget and much more!
[smart_track_player url=”http://traffic.libsyn.com/primalpotential/588_QA_sugar_addiction_thrive.mp3″ color=”#00ccbb” background=”#60b86c” social_email=”true” ]
Questions tackled in today’s episode include:
- How can you tell the difference between being sluggish from something you ate and not getting quality sleep. I’m struggling with knowing if I’m getting enough/quality sleep.
- I’ve listened to your episode on Identity Journaling but after I answer the questions,I’m not sure where to go with it. What do I do with my answers to the questions?
- If I take your advice and ask myself, “What is possible?”, what do I do with the answer?
-
What I struggle with most, I identify as “sugar addiction”. I know that I would be healthier if I never ate refined sugar, but it’s a mind game where I feel deprived instead of feeling elated that I’m choosing to do good things for myself. I just don’t know how to get out of my own head.
-
I have no willpower. I listen to your podcasts and although they are so good, nothing is helping me. I lose 2-3lbs and then go on a blitz of eating poorly. At 58years old, I don’t think anything will help me.
-
How can you tell if you are sensitive to carbs or not?
-
What are the best nutritious foods available for a person currently living pay check to paycheck?

You aren’t too busy to take care of yourself or to prioritize your health.
Sure, you might be able to tell yourself and others that’s the reason you aren’t making progress or doing the work, but it doesn’t make it true. It’s just a convenient story – a permission slip you write yourself for being inconsistent.
The reality is – taking great care of yourself increases your bandwidth, it doesn’t decrease it. It gives you more energy, more focus, more determination, clarity and efficiency.
I love the Zen saying about meditation. “If you don’t have time to meditate for an hour each day, meditate for two hours.” If you think you’re too busy, you need to adjust both your schedule and your perspective!
There are so many other elements to this permissive lie and we’re exploring them all on today’s episode!
[smart_track_player url=”http://traffic.libsyn.com/primalpotential/587_busy_fabletics.mp3″ background=”#00ccbb” social_email=”true” ]
A Few Tips If You’re “Busy”
- Stop using “busy”
- Ask yourself if you’re creating a life you love or just keeping yourself busy
- Are you getting the results you want?
- Create more space
- Talk more slowly
- Think more slowly
- Move more slowly
- Meditate
- Eliminate obligations that you aren’t passionate about

Get ready to expand your perspective about personal growth! Get ready to get excited about it and more enthusiastic in your pursuit of it!
Today, we have Tara Romano on the show! Tara and I met a few months ago and when I saw her Instagram post where she said that personal growth is her drug of choice, I just had to have her on the show.
[smart_track_player url=”http://traffic.libsyn.com/primalpotential/586_personal_growth_with_tara_romano.mp3″ background=”#00ccbb” social_email=”true” ]
Personal growth is a gift, not a burden. It’s something you do FOR yourself, not TO yourself. It’s not a sacrifice.
In today’s episode, we dive into both personal growth, the gift of it and overcoming insecurity and comparison.
Some of Tara’s personal affirmations include:
- Interupt the pattern
- It’s not that serious
- Stop making up so many stories
- I’m a perfect work in progress
- I’m a magnet for all I desire
- My life is perfect as it is and I’m capable of making any changes as I desire
- All I need is always taken care of. I am safe.
