Elizabeth Benton 1890 Episodes Jul 25, 2026

This podcast explores why people feel stressed and overwhelmed despite having clear goals, and why they fail to achieve them. It argues that consistency is a skill that can be learned, not a one-size-fits-all approach. The host, Elizabeth Benton, offers a more effective and realistic approach to building consistency and achieving goals.

1432: When The Truth Steers You Wrong
1432: When The Truth Steers You Wrong Jul 20, 2026 20:43 When something is true, you don't question it. Why would you? And that is exactly how you end up doing all the right things for years and still not getting anywhere near where you actually want to go. This one answers the question so many of you emailed after the last episode. How do you know when "you're doing so much better than you used to be" is true and worth celebrating, versus when it's t
1431: I Just Stopped Hiding From the Truth
1431: I Just Stopped Hiding From the Truth Jul 18, 2026 21:59 Show Notes Get on the DEFENSE waitlist: elizabethbenton.com/defense-app/ For four years I could have told you, honestly, every right thing I was doing with my health. Ate well. Ate protein. Didn't binge eat. Didn't drink. Worked out. Active. Slept. Every word of it true. And nothing was getting worse. My weight was stable. My habits were consistent. No crisis. Nothing going wrong. Which turn
1430: Your Avoidance Is Heavier Than the Work
1430: Your Avoidance Is Heavier Than the Work Jul 13, 2026 21:14 An NFL quarterback's coach gives him one rule on game day. No phone. Not less phone. None. Because of what it does to him before he's even taken a snap: how he sees, how fast he sorts what matters from what doesn't, how much noise he carries onto the field. Most of us start every day the exact way that quarterback is told not to. Already loud. Already full. Already carrying. This one is about t
1429: I Cancelled My Birthday
1429: I Cancelled My Birthday Jul 11, 2026 22:33 I canceled my birthday party a few days before it happened. Everybody was invited. The childcare was booked. And I called the whole thing off. Not because anything went wrong. Because I asked myself four questions, and by the time I got through them, I understood something about my life that had nothing to do with karaoke. This episode is those four questions. They're the ones that quietly decide
1428: The Stalling Period (When It Feels Like It's Not Working)
1428: The Stalling Period (When It Feels Like It's Not Working) Jul 6, 2026 12:18 Get on the DEFENSE waitlist: elizabethbenton.com/defense-app/ My kids planted zinnias, and then they stopped growing. They came through the dirt and just sat there, day after day, doing nothing. I was ready to take a chainsaw to a tree over it. Turns out the zinnias weren't broken. They were in the root stage. All the energy was going underground, where I couldn't see it, building the system t
1427: THE MONSANTO RULING: What Just Happened, Why It Matters, And What You Actually Do About It
1427: THE MONSANTO RULING: What Just Happened, Why It Matters, And What You Actually Do About It Jul 4, 2026 37:02 Last week the Supreme Court ruled seven to two in favor of Bayer-Monsanto, and it changes the rules for anyone who gardens, farms, or eats food grown in this country. Notice they did not go to the highest court in the land to prove Roundup is safe. They went to argue that even if it causes cancer, you are no longer allowed to sue them in your own state for failing to warn you. In this episode I wa

1426: You're Manufacturing Your Worst Days. Here's How to Stop. Jun 29, 2026 20:52 Get in before the cart closes June 30: elizabethbenton.com/defense Most of the bad days you have, the overwhelmed ones, the stressed ones, the ones where you check out and tell yourself you don't care, you had more of a hand in creating than you think. That's not a criticism. It's the best news you'll hear all week. Because the things you manufacture, you can stop manufacturing. In th
1425: The Only Episode On Procrastination You'll Ever Need
1425: The Only Episode On Procrastination You'll Ever Need Jun 27, 2026 27:09 The most expensive sentence I've ever said is "I'll start tomorrow." Not because I said it once, but because I said it every day for years, quietly, in the area of my life that mattered most. When I recently asked you on Instagram what keeps you from following through, more than half of you named the same thing I struggled with: procrastination. So this is the one episode I want you to never nee

1424: Fixing the Reason Good Plans Fall Apart Jun 22, 2026 16:09 Get on the list for the July cohort of DEFENSE Foundations: elizabethbenton.com/defense You've made good plans before. Plans that made sense. Plans you wanted. And you've watched them fall apart anyway, in the same place they always do. This episode is about why that happens, and it has almost nothing to do with what you think. It started with an email from a regenerative farm I follow. They
1423: When You Don't Want to Stop
1423: When You Don't Want to Stop Jun 20, 2026 21:20 Sometimes you know exactly what the better move is, and in the moment, you just don't want to do it. Not the binge, not the fight with your husband, not the screw-it-I'll-start-tomorrow. You're not confused about the right answer. You just don't want it. Most people read that feeling as proof they don't want it badly enough. It isn't. In this episode I'll show you what's actually going on, why "I
