A 150 Pound Weight Loss Transformation that Started with a Mindset Shift Featuring Guest, Elizabeth Benton, Nutrition Expert, Podcast Host, and Founder of Primal Potential EP111


It all starts with the mind, yet people still want to believe it’s mostly about strategy.

I was one those people who rolled their eyes every time someone mentioned mindset or reframe your thinking.  Just give me the special secret strategy already!!!

This is why I have so much patience and compassion working with all of you. I get it. I didn’t want to believe that everything I wanted to achieve was 90% mindset. That seemed too simple to be true. Well, for anyone who has done mindset work, you know it’s anything but simple. It’s daily, even hourly work.

To further prove the power of the mind, I interviewed a woman who lost 150 pounds with a 90% mindset approach and has kept it off years later. Her approach can be applied to any area of your life or business. So listen up, it’s damn good!

Elizabeth Benton was depressed, deeply in debt, and obese. As a nutrition expert and educator who binged on junk food every time she put gas in her car, she felt like a fraud and a failure. Desperate to start truly living her life, she decided to believe in her potential rather than her past. She lost 150 pounds, paid off $130,000, and remains debt-free as a successful entrepreneur.

Today, Elizabeth is the owner of Primal Potential. Through her platform of podcasts, coaching, and live events, she has fueled her deepest struggles into a burning passion to help people create transformations and live more fulfilled lives.

This is the phase where old identities, limiting beliefs, control patterns, and coping mechanisms begin to fall away, forcing you to face the very things you’ve been avoiding.

If you’ve been feeling caught between versions of yourself, wondering why your old life no longer fits, or sensing that you’re becoming a different person, this conversation is for you.
