723: Busyness Leads to Bad Decisions
17/02/2020 Duration: 27minToday we're taking a look at some powerful research supporting the fact that busyness leads to bad decisions and, most importantly, what we can do about it. https://primalpotential.com/723/ Here's the article referenced in today's episode. "When we get caught up in a time scarcity trap of busyness, a panicked firefighting mode, we might only have the capacity to focus on the most immediate, often low-value tasks right in front of us rather than the big project or the long-range strategic thinking that would help keep us out of the tunnel in the first place."

721: Love (of Money) In Action
13/02/2020 Duration: 01h07minMoney is a weird topic. I love to talk about it because I think it makes it more accessible for everyone. Others get super squirrely when it comes up.

708: Creating a Life You LOVE
13/01/2020 Duration: 40minI'm so excited to have Brooke Thomas back on the show! Too many people are "fine". Things are "okay". People are living a fine life, even a good life, but not a life they love. Oftentimes, setting a bigger vision feels weird. We're unsure of ourselves and make decisions based on how others might respond to the moves we make. That means living small! In this converation with Brooke Thomas, we talk about how to create clarity for your life and how to respond to yourself as you start going through the fears, doubts and dramas. Be on the lookout for Brooke's new podcast - the Live Out Loud Show launches this week and as soon as it's life, we'll link to it here! https://primalpotential.com/708/

707: Avoidance Isn't Refuge
11/01/2020 Duration: 26minOne of the topics we're focusing on in this Saturday's Q&A is NUMBERS - the thing you see on the scale, on your bank account, or on anything else that contributes to your life and mindset. How do you face these figures? What does 'avoidance isn't refuge' mean when it comes to these numbers? Join us as we tackle the topic in this episode! Here's the complete list of questions we're answering today: I would love your opinion on tracking body composition and weight. I'm working with a counselor who wants me to avoid numbers altogether, as she thinks I try to over-control these variables. However, I believe that avoiding these numbers is hiding from them. You once said "avoidance isn't refuge" in the 12WT and it's always stuck with me. I think it's important to train myself to be able to face the numbers and have an objective, non-dramatic response to them regardless of what they are. I also think it's important to have an objective measure of progress so I can re-evaluate whether or not what I'm doing is wo
