But first! Take the quiz to identify your primary barrier to consistency: primalpotential.com/quiz

Let’s talk about what you’re avoiding — the scale, the check-in, the budget, the truth. Not because you don’t know… but because you don’t want to face it.

In this episode, we dive into Blind Spot Culture — the subtle but powerful way we avoid clarity and call it "grace" or "self-care" while continuing to drift. Whether it’s telling yourself food is comfort, or skipping your check-in because “you already know it was a bad week,” this kind of avoidance is robbing you of the change you say you want.

We’ll unpack:

  • What blind spots really are (hint: they’re not about ignorance)

  • Why we avoid feedback, mirrors, and metrics

  • How “comfort” habits like overeating are masking deeper needs

  • What it’s actually costing you to avoid facing the truth

  • Simple ways to break free from the patterns that are keeping you stuck

If you're ready to stop drifting and finally build momentum, this episode is a must-listen.

🧠 Key Takeaways:
  • Avoidance isn’t protection — it’s a trap.

  • The truth doesn’t get more painful when you face it — it gets more useful.

  • Food, distractions, and "grace" are often just blind spots in disguise.

  • The moment you look is the moment you take your power back.

🎯 Ready to Break the Cycle?
