I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started.  Lesley Logan 0:46  Hello, Be It babe. How are you? Happy Friday. Oh my god, how is it the last Friday in April already? This year is just flying by in the most amazing ways. And I know that that can feel kind of crazy and chaotic. And, you know, it's like we just celebrated spring in our like, people already talking about summer. And you know, for my people in Southern Hemisphere, you're like, please, can we talk about spring because I'd like to get out of this weather that we're in. I'm so excited for you. I'm so excited for where you're going today. Whether you're driving to work, or you're driving home, or maybe you've got something kind of stressful about to go to it, but I'm excited for you because everything is happening for you. It really, really is. And we get to connect the dots looking backwards later on. And that's really, really fun. So if this is your first time listening to FYF, hi. We celebrate wins, I read out wins that were sent in to us. And then I share a win of mine and we get to see how many ways you can celebrate wins. Good ones, things that feel a little off things that like actually feel like a loss, but then they actually turned out to be a win. We got some of those coming up to share with you in the future weeks. So you know, what are your wins? We want to hear them send them into the Be It pod. Lesley Logan 1:58  All right, first up is Ainsley. Ainsley is an Agency member and eLevate member she'd been in Cambodia with me. She lights up every room she's in. So she said, this week I got gifted 711 pounds. Yes, it should have been over 14,000 pounds from a salary I'd earned for a company I'd previously worked for 10 years for that with into administration in 2020. But this gift I got because I followed up and refused to accept that I had not received what was due because one human put a line through my name because I was having an operation. It was about me setting boundaries. It's a gift because it's symbolic and full closure of previous chapters. It forced me to pivot and retrain. When I thought I was at my lowest. I was not, that came later. Little did I know it truly was done for me at the time and not to me. Who knew I could be so much happier creating and curating this life. I want to lead not and not have to. So this is the life she wants to live and not have to. Isn't that beautiful? Alright, she said this week I'm fully celebrating with the 711 pounds intentionally, spending every penny so it's not swallowed up by daily bills. My studio got a repaint some new magic circles for group class and the decorator has a cancellation for next week. So is painting my bedroom and kitchen to a new color. Fresh energy, gray be gone. Bedroom represents sleep, common rest. Kitchen represents nourish me and my family. There's 95 pounds leftover from a Lumi ice bath for daily habits. Oh, and a new set of matching mugs represent cup of teas with friends, family chats. These are for me what 2024 are to be about, building on what I have, my skills, my business, my family and my home. Ainsley, freaking way to advocate for yourself. It should have been more but like way to like, just freaking get some for you as you were to. And then to truly and being so intentional about that money. Oh my gosh, it's beautiful. Thank you for sharing this win. Because it's really beautiful to celebrate and I got to picture how you would use that money and I'm just so excited for you. Lesley Logan 3:58  Megan Clements who actually was in Cambodia at the same time Ainsley was also a win, she's an Agency member and she wrote, I taught my first masterclass today 10 of 12 spaces filled, super happy with how it went. And I have three more in the series. Way to go, Megan, way to go. I mean, it's so new things even when teaching long time are can be so difficult and like I love that you're celebrating that you got the first one done and that you could have more in that series. So congratulations. Lesley Logan 4:23  Lori Watson. She's an OPC member. Oh gee, Agency member, she actually will contribute to OPC workshops and we've got one coming up with her at summer camp and she has a win. My win. I've been consistent on the Calm app for 1096 days. That's three years plus one day. I listen everyday to the Daily Calm in the morning before getting out of bed. I listen to the Daily Jay midday as well as do the Daily Moves. Every evening I listen to the Daily Tip once in bed and sometimes after I will listen to a Sleep Story. Do breathwork in your music. I figured since I've been working out daily anywhere from 10 to 60 minutes since I recovered my 2020 Fusion somewhere around June of 2020, I started adding sessions on the equipment. I would add the mindful piece. Anyway, that's my win. Thanks, LL, for always encouraging me and always believing in me. Lori, you're freaking incredible. And I remember when you started that Daily Calm, and I mean, like 1096 days in a row. And you already do so many things daily. But I love that you have a morning, noon, and night thing that just is truly part of your day and who you are and supporting you in every way. So you've got your movement, you've got your mind, and it's just beautiful. So thank you for sharing. Guys, I want you to know, I know Lori has actually celebrated her Daily Calm days sooner than three years. And I think that's really important to note. But I also love that she keeps celebrating it. The reason why we celebrate things, you guys, is that it actually puts dopamine in the brain and that helps create habits. And so my Agency members, my eLevate members, my OPC members are used to celebrating FYF always. They've been doing it for years. And it's because it's how habits are truly created. That's how they're made. So if you are trying to make something happen in your life you've got to put happiness around it and epic celebrations around it. And also the reason why we do FYF is like, my goodness at the end of the week, instead of looking at what you haven't done yet what you got done, right What did you do? Lesley Logan 6:17  So a win of mine. Okay, this win is a little bit long time coming to celebrate actually did it a few weeks ago, but I have not celebrated it with fully with you. And so I'm also just not done celebrating it yet because it was a freaking ton of work like a shit ton of work. But I got the draft first draft done of the flashcards and they are on the Design Cards Online where we set everything up before we hit print. It's a really big deal because this is like the biggest step into getting closer to hitting print on this deck. This deck was a big beast of a deck. I mean, they're all big beasts of a deck but like the Mat Deck was like mat, the Reformer Deck felt like a beast, the Cadillac Deck I was just like, oh what did I get myself into, the Chairs Deck, I was like okay, I think I got it going, the Barrels Deck did was like it felt like a Cadillac Deck again, there's just like so many different parts to it. There's four different pieces of equipment in this deck, which is really, really huge. And I had to do the photoshoot after writing them instead of before. There's something nice about having the visual picture that goes with the thing and I had to do it the reverse because

I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started.  Lesley Logan 1:01  Welcome back to the Be It Till You See It interview recap where my co-host in life, Brad, and I are going to dig into the influential convo I had with Jordan Dunin in in our last episode. If you haven't yet, listened to that episode, you can listen to it now and then come back and listen to our takeaways. You can listen to our takeaways as your spoiler alerts for what you're gonna listen to on that one. It's kind of fun. I know people listen to all the podcasts at least once some of them have gone back through the whole library again, which is kind of insane because this is episode 359. Holy fucking Molly. Today is April 25th. It is Love Your Thighs Day. About Love Your Thighs Day. Love your thighs. Whoo. Love Your Thighs is celebrated on the fourth Thursday of April every year and this year falls on April 25th. Women all over the world have a love hate relationship with their bodies. They're constantly encouraged to love their bodies and society where beauty standards have been predefined and sometimes unreachable. Love Your Thighs Day seeks to mitigate this and tell all women around the world that no matter what your bodies look like they should love them because it's theirs to cherish. And one of my favorite clothing lines that I like to wear has a shirt that says fuck a thigh gap. And another one that says like thick thighs save lives. And I just love them. I think what I get frustrated with is that we had a couple of years where the media was not talking about toning and slimming and burning belly fat. And we're back to that bullshit. And it's so annoying to try to be an educator in a world where the media wants this stuff. And guess why they want this stuff because it sells magazines. So please stop fucking buying that shit. If you want it to stop, we have to as a collective say I don't want an article on how to slim my thighs. I want an article how to love my thighs. I don't want an article on how to tone my arms in five minutes, I actually want an article on how to strengthen my arms so that I can be older in this world and have a great time in menopause. We are a huge amount of people that can demand what we want. So we need to, this is my call to action, demand it from these publications because I'm pissed off about it and I'm sure my publicist is like you've just stopped telling us like there's no such thing as that that can never happen and here's what you can do. Okay.Brad Crowell 3:09  Nice. Lesley Logan 3:10  Anyways, I'm just on a pedestal over here just a little pissed off.Brad Crowell 3:13  Yeah, upcoming events and travel.Lesley Logan 3:14  So, tomorrow, literally tomorrow, we are going to be at POT, that's Pilates On Tour, Balanced Body's Pilates On Tour Phoenix, April 26th to the 28th. Come see us in person we have a booth. The May is just literally around the corner and so the May Accelerator, you can go to prfit.biz/accelerator. That is our two-hour workshop that Brad leads that will help you grow your studio. So if you are an instructor or studio owner that works for yourself, this workshop is for you. And it's not just where you get thrown up on an information that you'll then go back to work and never integrate.Brad Crowell 3:45  No, it's an actual workshop. We're going to work on your stuff together in the workshop. It's gonna be good it's gonna be for people who are new to teaching or people who've been, had a studio for 20 years and they're just kind of feeling like okay, I've got my clients but the needle is not moving. This workshop is also for you, too.Lesley Logan 4:00  Yeah. And then also happening in May is another early bird for Cambodia because October trip is so sold out, it's so sold out so you have to actually sign up for the February opportunity and those on the waitlist are going to get the early bird if you're not on the waitlist you're just going to hear about Cambodia, but when you actually can sign up for it, it will be full price. And the last one almost sold out on early bird. So just saying, you want to think about that. So go to lesleylogan.co/retreats to get on that waitlist. And finally upcoming is our June OPC Summer Camp. Oh my gosh, it is, okay, I think it's eight events each day. We have OPC teachers and guest teachers who are all OPC members and we have workshops and workouts. I'm leading a workout and a workshop and other people are leading their workshops or workouts. We've got something for everybody, hyper mobile, strength building, reformer workouts, tower workouts, mat workouts, soccer, runners, like we've got something for everybody so you want to go to opc.me/events opc.me/events stay on the waitlist because if you're an OPC member, you get the best early bird you will just give me email for that. And if you're not an OPC member and you're on the waitlist, you'll get the second best early bird but if you're not an OPC member and you're not on the waitlist, you get the third best early bird which is not the same as the first best or second best. So get on the waitlist. opc.me/events Brad Crowell 5:19  opc.me/events all right.Lesley Logan 5:21  Okay, we have an audience question before we get into Jordan's episode. Brad Crowell 5:25  We do from YouTube. Sofia asked, should you wear grip socks to Pilates? Are they necessary? Lesley Logan 5:32  Yeah, so I love this question so much that we actually did a whole live on it for our YouTube channel because it's really appropriate for our subscribers over there. So if you are a YouTube subscriber first of all, thanks so much. For the OPC subscriber, you can subscribe to this podcast and we thank you for that too, especially if you want to see what's happening behind this microphone. Brad Crowell 5:51  Yeah, this podcast has its own YouTube channel. Lesley Logan 5:53  Yeah, yeah. But on the Online Pilates Classes YouTube channel, I actually answered this in a very a lot of detail. But do you so here's a quick story, do you need to wear grip socks, not unless it's a studio mandatory thing. So if you're at your own home, you don't need to your bare feet are unless you have sweaty feet are going to be great and super solid and not very slippery. That being said, if you have super sweaty feet, or you're going into a public studio, grip socks are really great and a lot of studios require them, I require them because people's toenail polish was like rubbing off on my equipment, but a lot of people require them because of germs. Just like you know, like you're stepping on the dirty floor that people just walk past to go the bathroom, you know what I mean? Like just the grip socks are really great. They also do ensure that your feet are sticky on the equipment. Most importantly, don't wear regular socks if the socks don't have grip on them or the grip has gotten old time for new socks. And we have ads on the show every single week about Toesox and Tavi socks. I am an ambassador for them. And so if you just go to toesox.com or Tavi Active, you can actually use my code Lesley L-E-S-L-E-Y to get a discount on anything. And

That's, that can't cure you, that's, that's impossible. Like, talking about nutrition or I did some resonance therapy, which is like, like energy healing. And people were consistently telling me it's a waste of time, or a waste of money or a waste of resources. And not only was the worry in my head that it's not going to be enough was that tough, but it was also going against what everybody around me was saying was a little hard. But I have Lauren, my, my now wife, and she was always in my corner. But for people that are struggling and wanting to change something, I think that the hardest thing to do is to get rid of the opinions of others because that's, that's tough. Lesley Logan 0:49  Welcome to the Be It Till You See It podcast where we talk about taking messy action, knowing that perfect is boring. I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started. Lesley Logan 1:31  Oh my gosh, Be It babe. Okay. So I find it's important to share interesting stories where there's an overcome of challenge. Because I think it's so easy to look at people building businesses building things and think they have it all together, their life has been so easy. And not everyone shares with you their journey to get to where they are. And I'm not saying that they have to. Also, because sometimes people just don't want to repeat the story that they've already told. But I think and like today's episode, especially, it can maybe help you understand that pretty much most people create things based on the journey that got them there. And I find that some of the best inventions, and the greatest things that I've you know, especially in my life that have happened, have all if I look back as hindsight that 2020 I can see that came from this version of a rock bottom. And I share this with you because I've met a few people in like in a rock bottom zone, and they just want it to be over. And I really love to say like, you know, if this is your rock bottom, like do not, do not wish it over. Like do not wish it never happened because some of the greatest things in your life are going to come from this, right? So today's guest is Jordan Dunin, Founder of HatchPath and it's a really cool company, I'll let him tell you all about it. And like what it's meant to do and what it's designed for. But also, like, if you're watching this on the YouTube version of it, you're gonna see my face just like, like I get more and more stunned as he tells a story of what he overcame. And I think it's important for you to hear that because I know that you're probably going through something right now. Or you're just, you feel like you're on the other side of it and you're wondering, like, why did that happen? What am I supposed to do next? Or maybe you forgot how far you've come. And maybe this episode can be a reminder that you're doing amazing things. And being it till you see it is not the easiest thing to do. And it doesn't mean that it's all shiny roses and rainbows and sometimes you're being it till you see it and then you go cry in your bed a little bit because it's hard to become that version of you that you believe you are meant to be. I hope you'll like today's episode. And here's Jordan Dunin. Lesley Logan 3:40  All right Be It babe. I'm so excited for our guest today, Jordan Dunin is here and off camera, off recording, we've just realized that like, you know, everything that looks like it's all together and organized. There's like all these apps for everything. And really, it just makes us all realize like, we can have very different lives and all need a different app to make sure the dogs are in the house, the babies are asleep. I'm just really impressed by you, Jordan, how organized you are. And I'm so excited to talk with you about coaching and your life to that. So can you tell everyone who you are and what you rock at? Jordan Dunin 4:11  Yeah, thank you so much for having me. First of all, and I'm Jordan. I am, I guess my title is the founder of HatchPath. But I'm a dad. I'm a life coach. I just ran a half marathon. So I guess I'm a half marathoner. And most importantly, I guess I'm human. But that being said, my journey all started in 2016 when I suffered a traumatic brain injury, so I dove off a dock at a friend's cottage so I'm from Canada. So up north, we have a bunch of lakes and is called Muskoka. For those of you that know it. It's a lot of fun. But I hit the bottom and I actually compressed fractured my entire C spine. I tore off my rectus capitis. I needed 15 staples in my scalp. And I slipped suffered a traumatic brain injury. Pretty, I was pretty embarrassed about it. So I didn't tell anybody really. And I skipped all the imaging and at the time I was working in finance. So all the numbers on the screen are really smaller and smaller, I was popping Advil at the desk. This is before I became into health, obviously. And I was going to my final year of university, I was always a Dean's List scholar. And my parents were in Africa at the time. And I remember texting them saying, hey, I quit school. And I'm in my fourth and final year of my business degree. And then I got home and never felt depression before and I had to watch all my friends graduate while I was sick at home, and then in 2017, I was actually diagnosed with chronic Lyme disease. And for people with Lyme. I know there's a lot so I'm sure there's some listening, it typically becomes active after a trauma. So mine was physical. I think the emotional side actually triggered it more. But it can be through relationship trauma, childhood trauma, physical trauma, your immunity gets suppressed so far that the virus or the bacteria they think actually becomes active. So I was diagnosed in 2017. Over a four-year period as a net caller for four years lost 70 pounds, I was extremely depressed and pain every day. I was told I had multiple surgeries I didn't want to have including one that was to repair a ruptured artery and my sinus. Lesley Logan 6:13  Oh my god, this isn't, okay, like, if you are watching us on YouTube, my face is just like, okay, there's because I'm just like, you hit your head. And you're like, trying to be cool. Like, I'm good. I'm f

You're hearing this while I've wrapped a Sarasota event. A Nashville event is finishing up today. Some (inaudible) working remote in Nashville and just amazing at Brad and got some incredible stuff coming up next week while we're in Phoenix. But before I get into that, if you've never listened to our podcast, and this is the first one you're listening to, FYFs are Fuck Yeah Fridays and they are where we share a win of yours, a win of mine, and a little mantra. And the goal of this is to basically kind of highlight all the different ways you can find out that you have wins in your life. And I think that that's super, super important because it's so easy. It's way too easy to not even celebrate the wins you've had because they didn't happen when you thought they would. I have some amazing wins I want to share but I'm gonna get into yours first. Lesley Logan 1:40  Mary Dellanina, she's one of our Agency pro members and she was just here on a retreat but before that she had this amazing win. It said slow February as many clients are wintering, but I have received two really great new clients and I'm loving working with them. One is entirely new to Pilates and watching her brain find connection to the movement is so fun and made me realize why I love this work so much. She is loving learning something new as well. I have a newish client, four months, and she walked in the other day and exclaimed, I'm so happy I found you. I absolutely love Pilates, it's the first exercise I found that really made me feel good in my body. That is so fun. She also tagged one of our other Agency members, Ainsley, because Ainsley motivated me to think about my wins. Thank you so much. The weather in Chicago is beautiful and sunny. So I walked everyday to work. It's been a great reset for my day mentoring a friend of mine who is training with TRX and Pilates. And so we're working together on the reformer. It's been so fun. So I love this, Mary, because we shared some work wins, right, like how she was actually able to take a slow February and like still find a way to win it. Also, wins that she has seen in celebrating her clients. And then also like up just noticing the weather and being able to walk to work can be a win. Like how cool is that? So I really, really love that. So thank you Mary for sharing those wins. We have Charlotte Coker, she's a new Agency member. And she said ten people sign up for my online mat class first offering of this type and hosted the first session last night. I blew my magic number for these classes out of the park. I'm also going to order my Contrology reformer and tower this week. I'm so thrilled. See you later, studio reformer. So, way to go Charlotte, I'm so excited that you first of all, like we're able to put together a new offer and then sell it out and then also be able to invest in that reformer you've been wanting. And so really, really, really excited for you. Lesley Logan 3:28  Sidenote, y'all, we do have a perks page where you can get discounts on a lot of things like Pilates equipment, so just know that. Charlotte's taking advantage of that. I have one more win. This is Sonia, which is an Agency and an eLevate member. And she said, Oh my God totally excited and slightly, and she has a poop emoji, myself. After finally getting some rest over Christmas, I thought I'm doing it and advertised my first workshop for end of January. I thought I had scheduled for a later date. But I clearly messed up and advertised right away on my social media pages. Oops, wasn't ready for that. Today I shared lots of different Facebook groups also nerve-racking and I've made my, I'm already on my first signup, literally within 30 minutes of advertising. So excited, a couple of lessons I learned, don't have an annoying popup on your web page so people can can't get to the page you're trying to sell to people on separate Facebook account that say the same thing. I have removed it completely and then they gotta sign up. Just bloody do it. That was another lesson she learned. And she actually added to this before I was able to pull it that she got four signups and so she's, she's really looking forward to have 15. So this is an older win. But I wanted to share it with you because I think it's really cool to have a win. Recognize some lessons you can learn from for future times and also like making a mess, taking messy action and making a mistake doesn't mean it's a mistake. You can actually just like go for it. So I'm just really proud of you, Sonia. I know that you already offered this event and it went really well, it was a great learning lesson. And I love that you didn't wait to celebrate until it was done, until you had all the signups and then like it wasn't the one numbers you want. And I think that's really important. So, y'all, are you seeing how you can start to celebrate different things that are in process? Like that's important. Lesley Logan 5:09  Okay, my win. Okay. So, you guys, first of all, huge win. I'm just gonna celebrate it was just doing an amazing collaboration with a beautiful human. I've actually done two collaborations so far this year with beautiful, amazing women. And I know that like women supporting women is like a cliche people throw around, but like, It's not every day that like it truly happens. And it's happened twice this year because of intentionality, communication, just being on the same page. And so, shout out to my girl Erika Quest, and Alicia Lavender. We had an incredible colab in March. And this past weekend, when I was in Sarasota it was an amazing collaboration for Jessica Papaneau, she has been a Be It Pod guest and you should absolutely listen to her podcast. It's really amazing. I'm so excited for what she's putting out in this world. So that was amazing. And then this is really cool. So this is a big win. And it's gonna sound like it's like against like what I just said about like celebrating things while they're in process. But this happened really quickly. And also not at all. So our Cambodia October retreat for this year is completely sold out, like 100% sold out, no room at the end, just phenomenal. And we opened up the doors for this in January of this year. And we sold it out by middle of March. And we had to actually pick our February dates super, super early, which is because we needed to have a place for the waitlisters to go. But for the first time since 2020, we've actually been able to plan another retreat, a second one, within six months, we have been able to do that since, since actually 2020. Sorry, 2019 was when we did that last. And we've been offering retreats since 2017

I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started.  Lesley Logan 0:58  Welcome back to the Be It Till You See It interview recap where my co-host in life, Brad, and I are going to dig into the redefining convo I had with Ryan Lang in our last episode. If you haven't yet listened to that now, go back and listen to that one and then come back and join us or listen to this one and then listen to that one. Whatever you want to do if this is your first time here, hello. Brad Crowell 1:14  Welcome.Lesley Logan 1:15  Brad is my husband. My name is Lesley I never introduced myself on this.Brad Crowell 1:18  Wow (inaudible) just very rare. Spelled L-E-S-L-E-Y. What?Lesley Logan 1:22  I don't think I ever introduced myself on any podcast that we have. So, okay, anyways, thank you for being here. Thanks for being part of this, we are going to get into it. So today is April 18th and it's National Exercise Day. About this day, it's a day to encourage everyone to participate in physical activities. Exercise enhances our general health by giving us more energy, making us feel better, and even extending our lives by years. Regular physical activity and exercise have several health benefits that are impossible to overlook. Everyone, regardless of age, gender, or physical ability, benefits from exercise. Build new habits. So you guys exercise does not mean like burn yourself to the ground and overdo it on this day. I was listening to some podcast and she's like, yeah, you know, when you're like feeling good at a workout, you just got back into it. So you just like I'm gonna do two more things. And it's like, no, if this is your first day exercising this week, maybe like, intentional movement matters, okay? And I think if you don't like the word exercise, or working out if those those things like cause you any stress or worry or guilt, then intentional movement is what you want. That's what you want, intentional movement, get that blood flow going. Okay, so we're in Nashville right now, we come back from Nashville, hang with pups for a few days, and then remind them who loves them, and then leave them again. And we're gonna be at the Pilates on tour in Phoenix. So super, super excited about this come see us in person, April 26th to the 28th. Brad Crowell 2:41  Big, big event. Lesley Logan 2:42  It's one of their biggest it's more people than they've ever had in Pilates On Tour that I've ever been to. And there's a big huge party on Saturday night because Pilates anytime so come see us we'll have some flashcards and some other things. So come check us out. May Accelerator. So, the April Accelerator was so great. So many people loved it and also learned from it and so many people missed it. So Brad is doing another one. So go to prfit.biz/accelerator this is where you're, if you're a teacher or studio owner, you're going to learn how to grow your biz and particularly if you work for yourself. So if you're an employee somewhere, if you, you can come if you're wanting to not be an employee somewhere but it's best for people who get to actually make their own decisions in their business. So prfit.biz/accelerator and what day in May, Brad, do we know? Brad Crowell 3:31  Sure. Just get on the list. Lesley Logan 3:35  If you hit that it'll tell you. Brad Crowell 3:36  I do, I do have it somewhere I just don't know off the top of my head. Lesley Logan 3:38  And then also in May we are actually doing another earlybird for Cambodia because well we over we've sold out. Brad Crowell 3:46  We definitely have a large group coming in October, which is just really amazing and exciting. Lesley Logan 3:51  It's so amazing. It's so amazing. So (inaudible).Brad Crowell 3:53  We actually have more interests. So we opened up February 25. Lesley Logan 3:56  Yeah, opened up February and it's a really good time to come. It's going to be after Lunar New Year celebrations. And so it's just at the tail end of what would be considered high season for travel there, which means it's not a lot of people there. It's before it gets too hot and it's just a really lovely time also, I do really love the sunrises in February, so I'm just gonna be really honest, like October is amazing and the weather is phenomenal and everything is green. But in February the sunrises are just really, really cool. It will be about a month, actually like two weeks off of like, what would be the spring equinox which means you just have to turn your phone a little bit and then your sunrise is directly over in core. So go to Lesley Logan. L-E-S-L-E-Y as we talked about earlier L-O-G-A-N.co/retreat. (lesleylogan.co/retreat)Brad Crowell 4:36  That'll get you on the waitlist. Lesley Logan 4:38  Yeah, they'll get you on the waitlist which means if you're on the waitlistBrad Crowell 4:40  (Inaudible) announcement. Yeah, only those on the waitlist, get the early bird announcement.Lesley Logan 4:44  Once you hear it publicly on the socials and stuff. It's because it's full price. Yeah. And then also coming up huge, humongous deal. Brad Crowell 4:53  Big deal, y'all. Lesley Logan 4:53  Big deal. We are doing the biggest ever OPC summer camp. I think it's one of the biggest events ever. Definitely one of the biggest virtual events ever for Pilates lovers of all kinds at all levels. It's only two days. It's the first weekend of June. The workshops are all virtual and workouts and there's a lifetime access to them. And so there's no excuses to not get your ticket. But this time, you can buy a day pass or you can buy ala carte. If you're an OPC member, you're actually going to get the earliest of early bird tickets, which you may have already gotten those emails by the time this comes out. And then if you're on the waitlist, you get a different early bird pricing, not as goes OPC members, but still really good, better than the public early bird. And then once you hear publicly, it's the public early bird and then it's full price. Brad Crowell 5:35  It's the recurring theme here, y'all even though we may already have your email, get yourself on this waitlist because we're not going to add you to them. You have to add yourself.Lesley Logan 5:41  You have to add yourself. Why? Because you have to raise your hand for the things you want in this life. Brad Crowell 5:44  That's right. Lesley Logan 5:46  Hi, I'm an elder millennial and you gotta work for it. Okay. All right. So before we get into Ryan's amazing takeaways, we have an audience question? Brad Crowell 5:54  Yeah, we did. This was a great one from Meghan MBE on IG, I shortened your last name, Meghan. But she asked, hey, hey, how do you feel about music in a Pilates class? How about background music? What about choreographed Pilates class that goes to music? Is any of this frowned upon? Lesley Logan 6:10  Yeah, so it's not here's the thing, legal, there's legal things to think about here versus like, like, what's going on? So is

And to me that is not high performance. High performance is really what I call whole performance. And that's being able to play at a high level in every area of your life. Yes, we're not robots, the meters are gonna move up and down just a little bit. But you're never in a situation where one thing is like way up here, and something else is just a dumpster fire. Lesley Logan 0:29  Welcome to the Be It Till You See It podcast where we talk about taking messy action, knowing that perfect is boring. I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started. Lesley Logan 1:11  Okay loves, get ready. We got a great story for you. We got a great journey for you. We've got some great nuggets like mic drop nuggets, like you're gonna want to rewind, hold on, what did he just say? Like he was saying this one thing? Also, I should tell you, our guest is Ryan Lang, he was saying this one thing that I was just like, if you're watching our podcasts on YouTube, my hair bun is like nodding for me. It was everything. It was like the best encapsulated question, you could ask yourself to be it till you see it. So get ready. I'm not going to talk anymore, because I'm going to let Ryan do it for us. Ryan Lang is our guest today. Here he is. Lesley Logan 1:47  All right, Be It babe, I'm so excited. I have a dear friend, Brad and I got to meet him in real life recently. And his name is Ryan Lang. And what he's doing is like, it's just really amazing. And I love his take on it. So we're gonna dive into his unique take on identity and things like that. So Ryan, can you tell everyone who you are and what you rock at? Ryan Lang 2:06  Yeah, Lesley, I'm so first of all, thank you for having me. And I'm so excited to spend some time with you. So I'm the CEO of a company called Empire Partners. And at our core, really, we're a business consulting firm. And we specialize really in the coaching space, though. We have deep backgrounds in the coaching industry and have worked for and consulted for some, I mean, really, the biggest coaching companies on the face of the planet. And Empire really exists to help coaches become profitable business owners, a lot of coaches know how to coach very well, very few of them are profitable business owners. So that's empire. And then, for me, personally, I am a high performance coach. And so that's something that I've been obsessed with for a very long time, I kind of went through, you know, quite a journey that we can, you know, get into if you want on our podcast today. But I went through quite a journey in the business world building an eight figure business and kind of watching it and myself burned to the ground. And having to reinvent myself, hence, a lot of my study and work around identity. And so, you know, I really work directly one on one with a handful of high achievers, entrepreneurs, executives, business owners, and help them play at a high level in every area of their lives, which is what I call whole performance.Lesley Logan 3:30  Very cool. Okay, so you've got your hands in a lot of things. I love that there's coaches for coaches, because same thing I coach a lot of Pilates instructors, because they're amazing at what they do, and they're not often very good at business. Ryan Lang 3:42  Yes, yes. Very true. Lesley Logan 3:45  You know, I'm like, oh, please don't do what you're doing that you're gonna lose your house with that model. Like you have to separate yourself. So Ryan, I do want to like something that just came to my mind, and we can dive more into your journey. But you said high performance coach, and something that I'm curious about. And you also said high achiever, which is very different than I think an over like, overachiever. Like I'm recovering perfectionist, overachiever. Is there a difference between high performance and high achieving or like, do you know what I mean? Like, should we be striving for high performance, but not like, I guess I'm wondering, like, how you differentiate those things and those personality traits? Because I know a lot of our listeners are perfectionist, overachiever type personalities?Ryan Lang 4:27  Yeah, absolutely. So I'm going to make, this is a really good distinction. And I'm going to, I'm going to rephrase it just a little bit because I actually think it's exactly the same thing. So high achievement is really what I think most perceive most people identify as high performance. And most of the time when we're talking about high achievers or high performers, we have a tendency to do that somewhat interchangeably. And it's usually someone who has made it you know, who's shown a significant amount of progress or capability or results in one area, typically, right. And so what I would redefine this as actually, one of the reasons that I started my whole performance program was because of the fact that I realized I fell into this category as that I, you know, many of my contemporaries as entrepreneurs and business owners, in that we can play at a really high level in one area, to the detriment of so many other areas of our lives. And to me, that is not high performance. High performance is really what I call whole performance. And that's being able to play at a high level in every area of your life. Yes, we're not robots, the meters are going to move up and down just a little bit. But you're never in a situation where one thing is like way up here. And something else is just a dumpster fire. Lesley Logan 5:57  Right. Like your, your work is like insanely amazing. And your relationship is like, there's not there's no relationships. Got it. So like, okay, that I actually love that you brought that distinction, because I do think people use it interchangeably. And I think that it's your I like your idea of like a high performance is more, is whole, like it's more balanced. And like you have yeah, I think that that's really cool. Because it was just something that came to my mind. I was like, hold on, wait a minute. We don't often talk about high performers. A lot of people are high achievers or overachievers. And that's interesting. Okay. So I want to go back to your journey a little bit, though, how did you get into coaching, and then also that little bit of a burnout journey that brought you to where you are

Let's get started. Lesley Logan 0:46  Hi, Be It babe. How are you? Oh, my goodness, it is that time of the week. It is Friday. So this is where we celebrate your wins, and we celebrate my wins. And we also hopefully inspire you to celebrate more wins and find them throughout your day. It's so, so important. It's so easy to like get caught up in all the stuff that's not going well. And so today, we're not going to end the week like, on how behind we are already in the week on all the things we did well, so let's hit your wins up first. Thank you for sending them in. You can send them into the Be It Pod and we'll share them with you. So Ainsley, Ainsley is an Agency member and she's also in eLevate round four this year, but she wrote, It's 7:30am on a cold January Sunday, and this week, I paid off my final installment of my second reformer. I nearly overlooked it as I press pay automatically, but it glitched and didn't go through so I had to press pay again and paused wow, I did this. So I'm celebrating. Egg sourdough and sparkling tea. Cheers. Thank you, to me for all of my hard work and paying it off and having the courage to commit to it and all of you whose energy and encouragement is essential and contagious. I have Sunday self-practice and cuppas with the new eLevate group. Thank you. So you are so welcome. Ainsley, you are just I thank you for taking a moment to celebrate this because I bet you there's someone listening to this right now who just paid off their final credit card bill or their final payment on their car, or they're getting closer or like I remember, I remember I paid off my student loans. I was like, oh my god, I just, that was the last payment. That's it. That's all. That's all it is. I'm done. And it was like, I just, I remember like, wanting to celebrate and then going oh my god, everyone to celebrate with is still paying off their student loans. So like, no one's gonna wanna celebrate. And you know what? I should have celebrated with them because they should have celebrated with me too. Like, we should be celebrating the things that we did well. Congratulations. Thank you for sharing that with us. Lesley Logan 2:36  All right. Jenna Dennis. Okay. She's an Agency member. And she's really cool. We got to see her on the summer tour. So here we go. My wins. I watched LL's talk about bringing in clients. And earlier in the day, I had hesitated reaching out to someone in my network. I was thinking she's going to be irritated. I'm reaching out to her about marketing. But during the class when LL talked about that very topic, I paused the class, texted her, and she was so excited I text her about it. Three new people sign up for my herb classes. I changed the marketing based off homework with Lesley and Lesley's talking about giving early bird prices for retreat. I took this weekend off and managed to say no to people who reached out and wanted sessions I finally launched my new client welcome email series to nurture new clients. It worked and the new client clicked to read my bio on my website. I had some problems come up with my website. So I'm transitioned over in inconvenient times that I remember LL saying one of the reasons you can't level up your business is you can't handle the next level problems and totally changed my attitude about it. And I went from overwhelmed and oh shit with a side of panicking to wait, stop. Whatever. This is not a big deal. And I totally fixed the whole issue myself after reading copious amounts of directions on the internet. I'm actually excited to have total control over my website. Heck yeah. Oh my gosh, Jenna, these are all just so fricking great. Thank you first of all for listening to the webinars that I do. And taking those notes and integrating them because look how it's helping you like you're doing it you know, just so awesome. Lesley Logan 4:04  Alright, we'll do one more. Djamila. She's been kicking butt you guys. If you ever had to move house before and like change your whole business and have kids while you're doing it like this, she is doing that and so this one is for all of you who are like moms who are trying to make magic happen and also having to like start a new study so Djamila is in our Agency members and she said so while I'm bleeding money at the moment these past weeks I've learned to advertise via meta easy upgraded and I'm using Canva pro have a superfan client who's bringing me more business I'm working that connection and excited and touched by the progress one of my new clients is making she is almost paralyzed from the waist down. My employees are amazingly supportive with her too and it's so nice to watch that in action, have drafted an introduction invitation letter to physiotherapist in my neighborhood have prepared at my house to receive 450 moving boxes from South Africa and Myra farmers finally got quality cert certified. This means my clients can get financial assistance from Swiss health insurance to come to my studio and I'm leveraging my moon cycle to really use my Peak Pro to productivity times and rest too and making progress and getting out of my own way. And I let go of all the things I cannot come to keep up with this week. Well, Jamila, I think you just helped all of us do that, too. You're so great. Like, I love these wins. I love that you're seeing these obstacles as like opportunities and wins. And you're also in observation mode of all the things around you that are going so well. Thank you. Thank you, thank you, you guys send your wins in, I want to read them here. I want to help you also it's so cool, as I'm probably sure you've heard, some of these wins are a couple months old by the content that come out. So that means when you hear your win again, you get to re-celebrate what you just did, which is so freaking fun. Lesley Logan 5:39  All right, my win. So I've two wins. Last week, the affirmation was like I leave room for spontaneity. I have this fun win. I had been overwhelmed with work load. And to be honest, because I went so long without having help that like I just got really, really behind. And then we had retreats in a row, several retreats in a row that eLevate like, there's just a lot of things going on. So just wasn't really able to, like take time to just relax and rest because I fell behind on things. And I was also working. And so Brad was like, hey, change your clothes, we're gonna go somewhere. And instead of going, Nope, I'm fighting with him to stay and like stay in my overwhelm. I was like, okay, how much more money can I get? And you guys, I left room for spontaneity. And it was so fun, ended up not being what he wanted, he was hoping to take me for a hike and we got all the way to the place and was covered in snow. There was zero way we were gonna hike anywhere. So we pulled the camping chairs out and we sat on a snowed in rode and had a beer while watching the mountain covered in snow. So, you should leave room for spontaneity, it's so fun. Second win, the team for months, has been planning some changes in the Profitable Pilates business. And it's a little scary to do something new in your business because you're like, well, this thing h

But that is just because of the financial jargon. It's because of limiting beliefs. It's because of messaging. Once you actually get a basic education, you realize it's not that complicated, but I definitely did not start out that way and in my 20s actually made a whole lot of big, big investing mistakes. And that's actually why I learned what I learned now. Lesley Logan 0:27  Welcome to the Be It Till You See It podcast where we talk about taking messy action, knowing that perfect is boring. I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started. All right, Be It babe, we are going to talk about money today. And it's so, so important I do not want you to go I'm gonna skip this one money scares me. No, no, no, this is like you'll be so amazed, so fired up. I'm so excited about what I learned on this episode like so, so excited. I'm immediately, after this, signing up for just at least what Tess just guide us, because y'all one of the reasons I love having her on, and one of the reasons I wanted to have her on is that she is really passionate about normalizing money conversations, especially for women, and investing. And I believe in being it till you see it and I believe in every single one of you having exactly what you want in this minute. And I also believe that there's a security that is needed. And a lot of times we think we're not good with money because we told ourselves a story, or we've been told a story or family told us a story and you're just gonna love Tess, you're gonna love her advice. She's brilliant. She's amazing. And she's going to help you understand how simple it can be to invest. So here is Tess Waresmith. All right, Be It babe, this is gonna be a thrilling conversation. I'm really, really excited to talk about all the things that Tess Waresmith is an expert at. So Tess, thank you for being a guest to us today and can you tell everyone who you are and what you rock at? Tess Waresmith 2:22  Sure. So my name is Tess. I am a financial educator and I rock at helping women make the most of their hard-earned money by teaching them super, super simple investing strategies and ways to grow their money, even if you're totally new to investing, totally intimidated, have little time, like so many people, and just want to learn how to make sure your money is working for you. So that's what I do. I do that through coaching, teaching, workshops, and I'll always trying to normalize money conversations as much as possible. I love that so much. On many episodes, I've been like, we have to talk about how much money we make ladies, otherwise you don't know how much money you can make at things like if we don't, we've got to normalize that conversation. So I think it's really, really important. Before we get into all that, though, I do. Because I do think that something like oh my God, investing that scares me, this is going to be above my like, level of understanding. Don't turn this off. I really want you to hear it. Can you, have you always just been amazing at money or is it just something that came natural? Were your parents like super good about telling you how to balance a checkbook? Like how did you get to be an expert?The short answer is no to all of the above. I did not learn how to manage money as a kid, I was not taught by my parents. In fact, my father was horrible with money and spent a lot of it and now is months behind on mortgage payments. So no, I did not grow up with a deep understanding of money. And I think it's important to realize that most people don't. I feel like we have this misconception around money where you're either good at it or you're not. And I hear so many people say I'm not good at money like it's a skill that you're born with. But just like anything else, it's a skill that you develop that you have to learn. And thankfully, and I'm glad you said not to turn it off when it comes to investing because investing is one of those things that feels really complicated and out of the realm of possibility for us sometimes. But that is just because of the financial jargon. It's because of limiting beliefs. It's because of messaging, once you actually get a basic education, you realize it's not that complicated, but I definitely did not start out that way. And in my 20s actually made a whole lot of big, big investing mistakes. And that's actually why I've learned what I learned now I was sort of forced to because I realized how much money I was losing by doing the wrong things that I went in a deep dive, did all this research and then I realized this crazy truth that it's actually not that hard. And so now I feel honestly morally obligated to do this work because it is so accessible to everyone, especially these days. There's so much great education. There's so many easy ways to invest. You don't have to be good at math. You don't have to be rich already. You don't have to have a ton of money to get started. You don't even need to be totally out of debt. Lesley Logan 5:01  Yes, I love that you said that. Tess Waresmith 5:05  So I'm really trying to demystify a lot of the myths around investing because there's so many and at the end of the day, we need this skill to make sure that we can unlock our full potential, chase our dreams, retire comfortably, have safety and security like that is really critical to your well being. So investing is not an optional thing. I think every woman needs to learn it. And we need to have more people providing digestible, relatable, no judgement, education. And that's what I'm trying to do.Lesley Logan 5:34  I really love that because I also love you said, you don't have to be out of debt. I think that's really important. A lot of women I talked to like, I'm almost out of debt. I don't want to, like they're not investing in their business yet because they want to be out of debt first. And I'm like, for just so I what I have learned is that they really care if you are in debt, like no one's giving you money if you can't show that you manage debt, so like, there's this like, really weird thing that we're supposed to be out of debt, when really the way your credit score works is based on how you manage debt, which is this really backed up weird thing in the US, if you're my European listeners, you're like what I just don't know what you're talkin

I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started. Lesley Logan 0:47  Hi, Be It babe. Happy Friday. Happy FYF Fuck Yeah Friday because it's a day to celebrate wins. I mean, you should celebrate them every day. But I know you. I am you. For recovering perfectionist and overachiever. And I get it, so hard. So alright, let's share your wins first. That's how this goes. If you're new to the pod Hi, Lesley here. Tuesdays are our interviews, Thursdays are all the recaps. It's really fun. You can hear Brad and I share our favorite takeaways, which I think is really cool. Because it's another way to like integrate what you are learning. And by the way, you want to integrate what you're learning, so that you don't just like keep getting more and more information that will overwhelm you. And then you know, and then today we celebrate wins. And I always celebrate the wins you send in. And then I celebrate a win of mine. And we get to practice celebrating like the little things. It's the little things sometimes. Sometimes, it's the big things too, but hopefully you're not just waiting till they're big to do it. So the first one is from Lisa MacDonald. She is an eLevate grad, she's my mentorship. She has been an agency member for years. And she said I started my day with the crab special love, love, love. First of all, I was so excited when I saw the title for today's class because I love doing the crap. But what I love even more were the connections that we worked on building up to the exercise, especially love the elbows on my knees for rolling like a ball. Hello, shoulders taking over. So we're billing, you're the best Lesley Logan. I'm doing this one again and again. So Lisa MacDonald was talking about the OPC workout for that week. And I just really love when people celebrate a win in their movement practice. Because it's so easy for us to focus on the exercise we can't do. And just so you all know like Lisa's been practicing Pilates for years and years and years. And if you are like what is that even exercise mean? That's okay. It's one of the more advanced ones that a lot of people don't know and can wait a while to know what that is. And also like, just because you've been practicing it doesn't mean comes easy for her. Like we all have our asymmetries. We all have the things we're really great at. So way to go, Lisa. That's so fun to read. Lesley Logan 2:39  I got another one for you. This one is from Joanne Sutton. She is an agency member for several years from Australia. It's officially been confirmed. I'm a bestselling author. Yes, Joanne. Yes, you are bestselling author. I'm so excited for you, you guys. It's our third agency member to be a bestselling author. And I'm just so freakin stoked. I'm just really, really, really proud of you. I'm gonna do one more win because I'm just in a winning mood. This one's from Olivia Walton. And she is an eLevate grad. I actually just had her here at the house for the eLevate reunion. That's my mentorship for teachers. And she also has a win about OPC. It's that I just took the OPC 50-minute Cadillac workout and did finally go for the first time since I learned it and eLevate, the cadi weekend, when I was not taking the best care of my back injury. And today it felt so great and so ugly and I'm so happy I just let myself do ugly Pilates a big win for me. And I did monkey and actually bent my elbows with my arms on my back. I can't wait to see some of you in real life soon. So obviously this one was before the eLevate retreat, but like it's just going back to what I was saying with Lisa like it's so cool to let yourself be in process everyone you don't have a Pilates instructor to be in process. You can be a regular human who is just trying to learn things. So congratulations. And there's a follow-up to this win and I'm going to add it in here because we actually had the best time at our eLevate retreat. It was so much fun. And Olivia was on my house probably longer than she should have been. And so her win is I made it to my flight on time after wanting to soak up every single second I could on the last day of the eLevate alumni retreat. My heart is so full. I love all of you even the ones I haven't squeezed yet. Ah, Olivia, Joanne, Lisa, thank you so much for sending these wins in because you just helped a ton of people understand that you don't have to have these many wins, like and I like I finally like hit all 17 goals perfectly like you don't ever have to do that you actually can celebrate these goals when they're in process. We've actually celebrated some of Joanne's wins along the way as she like turned in her edits and things like that. So like it's just really really, really cool. Celebrate big and small and even that what seems to be so menial like making a flight on time. That's a win. That is a win. Lesley Logan 4:50  All right, my win. So it's been a little bit but I am excited to announce that my win is I found an assistant. Found an amazing assistant and I, Brad and I have been looking for months for an assistant, I was really actually thinking I could like with the team and I could just like figure it out on our own. We probably didn't need it. Like, we have a huge team already do we really need it? And I was doing this thing where I was like talking myself out of something that like, no, like ever, all of us need help and struggle to find, help tried finding different people. They weren't returning our calls, things like that. And I happened to find this person because asked for help. So maybe the bigger win is ask for help. I asked for help. I literally went to social media and said hey, guys, I need an assistant. Here's what I need. Here are the requirements. And I'm just so excited because of who I got. So yay for my assistant. But the win is like I asked for help in a unique place and stopped going, I still can't find one. But I guess I'll just like keep plugging along in a way that's not supporting me. So that is my win. Finding someone to help support me in the process. Lesley Logan 6:00  Okay, now, for your mantra for the weekend. The mantra is, I leave room in my life for spontaneity. I leave room in my life for spontaneity. I love that one so much. I leave room in my life for spontaneity. Maybe your win this week is a spontaneity that you left room in your life for.

I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started.  Lesley Logan 0:49  Welcome back to the Be It Till You See It interview recap where my co-host in life, Brad, and I are going to dig into the transformative convo I had with Dr. Debi Silber in our last episode. If you haven't yet listened to the interview, feel free to pause this now. Go back and listen to that one and then come back and join us. Holy freaking moly. We have never had a topic on betrayal. Nope. First time and not only do we will talk about betrayal, but she is the leading doctor on betrayal. She has so much scientific information you guys if youBrad Crowell 0:57  TED talks, education from stage, workshops. She's an institute. Lesley Logan 1:23  If anyone in your life is like act like reacting to being betrayed in their life and other things that they're doing and they keep going well, I had this extra do this thing. Holy fricking moly, send them the episode. It was so informative, so good. And it's like, it's I mean, we'll get we'll get into it in a second. Anyways, today is April 4th, and it's School Librarian Day. Okay. Of course we're gonna highlight this day because we're all about the books on this podcast. So about this day, the day is observed to recognize the professionals who keep school libraries well-stocked in the books in perfect order. School librarians, I'm just gonna say, also librarians, if you're a public school public librarian this is you too, your school librarians spend long hours keeping the library organized, they also, they're also likely to be the first people to help students find the resources they need to learn. Pause. Yes, so many librarians I've heard on the news in the last year are the only safe person to suggest books to a lot of people. Anyways, they also encourage students pursue reading outside of academic text. School librarians are also responsible for creating an environment where students are motivated to learn. Their work is truly an accomplishment. With that said, if you didn't already know this, in 2024 OPC is supporting the nonprofit organization the Wheat Penny press and their program Little Readers Big Change along with Be It podcast, Rebekah Borucki, who runs it with every dollar spent so all you OPC members out there just know that you are part of providing free and low-cost books programming and funding for the creative arts to our most vulnerable communities and their most talented members. Thank you for being an OPC member and thank you for supporting reading. And we had Danny Brassel on who talked about like how he helps kids want to read and it's about giving them books that they actually want to read.Brad Crowell 3:06  That was a fun episode. Lesley Logan 3:07  I know. With Nick Hutchison coming up soon it's gonna be about how The Rise of the Reader. Brad Crowell 3:13  Jake Kelfer. Lesley Logan 3:13  Well, Jake Kelfer is for the writers. Brad Crowell 3:15  Yeah, but, books.Lesley Logan 3:16  And then, Nick is actually you're gonna learn how to retain what you're reading. Danny Brassel helps you get your kids reading and Rebekah Borucki who was recently a guest holy freaking moly, she is making sure that what we're reading is like making change. So. Brad Crowell 3:31  Pretty rad.Lesley Logan 3:32  You guys. Brad Crowell 3:32  Well, anyway, a sincere heartfelt thank you to all the OPC members out there. We love being able to donate to different causes. And we change, each year we pick a new cause and we get to donate throughout the year. And so we're really fired up to be supporting Little Readers Big Change along with you.Lesley Logan 3:54  Along with you. And you know, like support your local library. Brad's cousin is a librarian and she is like, all about like, getting me on Libby getting me to go get my library card and all that stuff. So like, support the libraries, they're really amazing and it's just, you know, look, you don't need to scroll so much. So anyway, okay. Brad Crowell 4:14  Read a book. Lesley Logan 4:15  This afternoon.

And it what's so interesting is we've had I don't know easily 95,000 plus people take our post betrayal syndrome quiz on our site, to see to what extent they're struggling. We've all been taught time heals all wounds. I have the proof that when it comes to betrayal, that's not true.Lesley Logan 0:27  Welcome to the Be It Till You See It podcast where we talk about taking messy action, knowing that perfect is boring. I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started.  Lesley Logan 1:09  Okay, I got some hot topic and this is gonna feel a little juicy but maybe not at all, actually. But, when I discovered today's guest and what they talk about, I was like, oh, yeah, we have not talked about this not in a high-level way. We've definitely had guests come on, who have shared how they're betrayed in their life, and then how they've made it to where they are today just inspire you to be it till you see it. But we've actually never had a like expert on the topic of betrayal. And I really enjoyed it. I feel like I just went to a whole study class on betrayal. I feel like I'm really aware of it. And I already have three people I want to share this episode. It's not even ready yet. I just I'm like literally finished recording it. And I'm like, oh my gosh, I have to send this to this person, I have to send this to this person. And so my hope is, is that today's episode, betrayal not only educates you. And maybe what you're going through what's keeping you from being until you see it is an old betrayal. And that can really suck to admit to, you know, like to, to think that like 20 years ago, something happened to you and you haven't yet healed from that. And I just to make sure you know that that's okay. You're not the only one. You're not the first person. You're not the last person. But hopefully with today's guest, Dr. Debi Silber, we can start to heal. And we can all go from a place of being betrayed and wanting to take over our lives to actually making it make our lives right where they can be. And so this episode goes through a lot of statistics, a lot of information as symptoms you might be feeling in your life that could all be from a betrayal in your life and also the ways you can get out of it. So I'm really excited for this episode. I think it's gonna be really awesome. And again, I do think it's one of those ones you're gonna share with your friends right now because I'm about to send this information to mine. So have an amazing day and I cannot wait to hear your takeaways. And here's Dr. Debi Silber. Lesley Logan 3:09  All right, Be It babe. I'm really excited for today's topic. Actually, I don't think we've even discussed this topic on the podcast and it is 100% aligned, aligned with us being until we see it. So we have Dr. Debi Silber, here. She is an amazing person who has truly forged her own path and is helping people on the topic of betrayal. So Dr. Debi Silber, will you please introduce yourself and tell everyone who you are and what you rock at?Debi Silber 3:33  Sure, looking forward to this conversation. So I am the founder and CEO of the PBT Post Betrayal Transformation Institute, I mean, clearly you don't study something like betrayal unless you have to. So I'm in business over 30 years - health, mindset, personal development, and then I had a really painful betrayal from my family thought I did everything I needed to do to heal from that. And then it happened again, a few years later, this time it was my husband, that was the deal breaker got him out of the house, looked at the two experiences thinking well, what's similar to these two, of course, me, but what else? And I realized, you know, boundaries, were always getting crossed, never took my lead seriously. And I am one of those people that believes if nothing changes, nothing changes. So here it was four kids, six dogs, a thriving business and I said, you know, a book wasn't gonna get me out of this jam, I needed a whole Ph.D. in it. So I did I enrolled in a Ph.D. program in transpersonal psychology, the psychology of transformation and human potential. Because I was changing so much I didn't quite understand it. He was too, wasn't ready to look at that. And then it was time to do a study. So I studied betrayal. What holds us back what helps us heal and what happens to us physically, mentally and emotionally when the people closest to us lie, cheat and deceive? That study led to three groundbreaking discoveries which changed my health, my family, my work, my life.Lesley Logan 4:51  Okay, I mean, crazy amazing. No, not that I would ever wish betrayal on anybody but like, thank goodness, we're able to take your betrayal and make it what it is because I, if you start to think about the different things that could happen to you that can really prevent you from living the life you want to live and betrayal is this one thing where you can see people in your life or maybe someone listening right now, like that is the thing that's keeping them from showing up in the world. Because the last time they did it, they got betrayed or whatever. So I just think that like, this is an amazing topic, can we just like, go down to the 101 of what betrayal is just in case people are like, I've never been betrayed before, my life is fine.Debi Silber 5:33  Sure. Yeah and then maybe it is. Well, I define it as the breaking of a spoken or unspoken rule, and every relationship has them. So the way it works is the more we trust, and the more we depend on that person, the deeper the betrayal. So for example, a child who is totally dependent on their parent, and the parent does something awful. That's going to have a different impact than let's say, your best friend sharing your secret, you're co-worker taking credit for your idea. Still a betrayal, different level of cleanup. Lesley Logan 6:00  Yeah, yeah. So you know. Yeah, I mean, that's a really interesting way of putting it like the stronger the bond, the deeper the betrayal. Okay, so then you start to go through and try to figure out what works to heal from betrayal. Obviously, there's some things that people can do that are better than others, like, what is the process of like? Is it first just recognizing that you've been betrayed? Is it going within? Is it you screaming and yelling at the other p

Welcome to the Be It Till You See It podcast where we talk about taking messy action, knowing that perfect is boring. I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach.

Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started.  Lesley Logan 0:47  Hello, Happy Fuck Yeah Friday. Welcome back to the Be It Till You See It podcast. Thank you for being here. Thank you for listening. Thanks for listening to these little short nuggets of inspo. It's so fun to make these for you. And I love sharing your wins. So send them in just like we love answering your questions. So how this podcast goes on today's episode is I share your wins, I share one of mine. And we have a little affirmation at the end. And it's different than a Tuesday episode where we have an interview we learned something and different than a Thursday episode where Brad and I share what we learned. And you get a little insight of like what life is like around here but it's actually also a lot of fun because it's kind of not too long (inaudible) listen version of the pod and that allows you to know if you want to listen to that one. And also like updates on what we're doing. So okay, let's quickly get into your wins. You guys it's so important to celebrate wins and they do not need to be completely done. In fact, you'll hear that with my win. Lesley Logan 1:37  So Sonia from Agency and eLevate wrote I heard back from a publication and they said I could write a piece for them. Thanks Roxy for suggesting it in the first place. This is not something I ever would have thought of doing. I have till end of January to get it to them. I'm so excited. So Roxy is one of our writing coaches inside of Agency and she inspires so many people to get their amazing thoughts on paper and to put it out into the world so people can learn from them. So thank you, Roxy. And way to go, Sonia. I know that you've got this paper out already. So congratulations. I just love it. I love that you shared what you are doing. And then you allowed someone to go, hey, you can do this. And you did, you receive that and you stepped up and gave yourself another muscle. So way to go. And then Ali wrote FYF change is happening, I've had my busiest week consistently for three weeks now. Three new clients have signed up for one-to-one intros for this week, I bumped into an old one-to-one client, who may come back and try some of my private this time. Today, I taught my first four-to-one. So four people, one teacher as a trial which fried my brain a little but I think it went well and hopefully made a good impression. Less is most definitely more. Ali, congratulations on trying something new and testing the waters there. And also for celebrating all these new people coming in and what you've got so many people wouldn't celebrate it till they all became clients. And I love that you're celebrating like that these things are happening, the work that you were putting out there is coming back to you. So thank you for sharing that. Lesley Logan 3:03  All right, well, one of my wins. Okay, so I just mentioned like, the reason I love to do this show this episode is to celebrate things, even when it's not the win isn't completely perfect or done yet. So while you're listening to this, Brad and I are taking a weekend away. It was not easy to make this decision especially because basically in April we have work on almost every single weekend. So that kind of like made me go oh my God, maybe we shouldn't do it, maybe shouldn't take this weekend off. And I was like no, once a quarter, I want us going, I want us driving somewhere. I want us taking a weekend off and driving somewhere packing the dogs up and going and doing something different that we haven't done before. We live so close to so many places. So as you're listening to this, we are on the road, probably I think it's either going to be Death Valley, or something in the Utah areas whether we're going California Death Valley or going into Utah. So at that time, I'm recording this win, which is a little bit close to the deadline. We haven't planned it yet. But we don't need to because it's two hours away. So we are just going to we're trying to keep it from being perfect. Oh, I have to have everything for the weekend planned. No. If you did, you wouldn't take mini trips, because you would, it would be too much effort to take the mini trip away. So we just block the dates. And we know that we are going to go on a two-hour drive somewhere and stay for the weekend and explore. And so that's what we're doing. So I'm so excited that that was one of my goals for this year is once a quarter for Q1, Q2 and Q3. Brad and I took a weekend off and just went and did something fun. And so we're doing that. So thank you to my team who helped me block the time off and thanks to Brad for, you know, wanting to do this little thing and also thank you to you for listening, because it really helps hold me accountable to just doing the things I said I was going to do, even though I'm someone who doesn't really need to have accountability partners in that, like knowing that I told people I was going to take a weekend off means I better do that. By the way I take every Saturday and Sunday off, but this is like a Friday, Saturday Sunday away. So just to clarify what that means. Okay, so celebrate wins, even if you're like in the middle of doing them. Lesley Logan 5:10  All right affirmation time. I am held and supported by those who love me. I am held and supported by those who love me. You are held and supported by those who love you. Yes, you are. So way to go. Thank you so much for listening to this podcast. Thank you for being you. Thank you for celebrating your wins with us. Share them to the podcast so we can shout you out. You'll hear them on a day that you'll probably need to be reminded that you had that amazing win once and until next time, Be It Till You See It. Lesley Logan 5:45  That's all I got for this episode of the Be It Till You See It Podcast.

I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started.  Lesley Logan 0:56  Welcome back to the Be It Till You See It interview recap where my co-host in life, Brad, and I are going to dig into the appreciative convo I have with Kelly Adame in our last episode. If you haven't yet listened to that one, you should go back and listen to that one. And by the way, while you're at it, listen to our first one and then come back and join us. Today is the official day of March 28th 2024. And it's National Triglycerides Day. Brad Crowell 1:16  It is.Lesley Logan 1:17  I don't think those are good. Brad Crowell 1:19  No, they're not. Lesley Logan 1:20  Okay. So just like all things in life require balance, so does our nutritional intake. Too much of anything, even if they're vitamins can be harmful. This is why, this is the reason why high triglyceride levelsBrad Crowell 1:32  It's not that triglycerides are bad, high triglycerides. Lesley Logan 1:35  High triglycerides, which are important lipid compounds that help with providing us with energy can be extremely detrimental while in many cases high triglycerides levels can be treated using medications. Recent studies have shown that in older people, namely 50 and above, that's not older, 50 is not old, triglyceride levels rise because of hormonal changes. If you're not sure what this even means speak with your doctor. If you have high triglycerides there are foods you can eat that will help you lower your levels. Whey protein products, fatty fish, whole grains, quinoa, avocado, coconut oil, garlic and cruciferous vegetables. Brad Crowell 2:09  Nice. Lesley Logan 2:10  Thank you, have all been shown to significantly reduce triglyceride levels. Ultimately, talk to your doctor. You know what, if you don't trust your doctor, talk to a different doctor, like if you have a doctor who won't test all of your levels, including your hormones get a different one advocate for yourself. You know that doctor I didn't like, everyone knows, we talked about it in the podcast, we talked about how much I don't like her, my insurance company just let me know that she's no longer in network for me, so I have to find a new one. I'm like, well, I was gonna find a new one anyway, so thanks.Brad Crowell 2:35  So if you're wondering what a cruciferous vegetables is.Lesley Logan 2:38  Is it like cauliflower? Brad Crowell 2:39  Yeah, cauliflower, broccoli, cabbage, kale, bok choy, arugula, brussel sprouts, collard greens. Lesley Logan 2:45  Some of those will make your pee smell. And that's how you'll know you're doing a good job.Brad Crowell 2:50  That's really what you're looking for y'all. Smelly pee. Lesley Logan 2:52  Hey, come to the Be It Pod for random facts on your triglyceride levels. But also, I just reject 50 being older people. I'm over that. No, because I'm 44. I'm 40 what do you mean 42? That's bullshit. Brad Crowell 3:08  That's a BS. Lesley Logan 3:10  Yeah. Anyways. Brad Crowell 3:12  Well, I just figured, you know, like, or heard about, you know, nutritional health and all the things but I didn't know there was an entire day dedicated to the awareness of high triglyceride levels.Lesley Logan 3:25  Well, because we live in a place where we have to, like make a holiday. Like okay, did you know the other day I was listening to a podcast and it was National Equal Pay Day it's like why the fuck is there a holiday? To remind? Brad Crowell 3:39  It's probably an awareness day. Lesley Logan 3:40  It's an awareness, it's still considered a holiday, right? If you go to the you don't look up awareness days, you look up holidays, right? So it's on the holidays calendar, and companies should just pay people equally for the same amount of work. Period.Brad Crowell 3:56  I agree. Lesley Logan 3:57  Doesn't need a fucking holiday. Anyways, just get a little irritated on this.Brad Crowell 4:03  Those triglycerides took you down a bad road there.Lesley Logan 4:08  I love cruciferous fruits I eat vegetables. I eat them all the time. Okay, so you guys. This is this in like three or four days Brad is doing the Accelerator which is a studio growth accelerator program. So if you're a Pilates teacher, studio owner, you can attend this amazing two-ish-hour webinar. Brad Crowell 4:27  It'll be April 4th. Lesley Logan 4:27  April 4th to be exact. And here's the thing that's so cool about it. He's going to teach you stuff and then you're gonna work on that stuff. What? Brad Crowell 4:29  Yeah. Teach and work on it. Lesley Logan 4:34  So it's not, so it's not like we talked about this (inaudible). It's not like you're just gonna get tons of information with no integration because you'll get constipated. Yes, you can have cruciferous vegetables, but you can also integrate the things you're learning. Also coming up in the first weekend of June, it's summer camp. Oh, I didn't give the link for that. It's the Studio Growth Accelerator. If you are wanting to sign up for that, you should. Agency members. You got Brad, you know don't need to do this. Brad Crowell 5:01  You don't need to do this. Lesley Logan 5:02  You've already done this. Go to prfit.biz/accelerator. And you'd be surprised that accelerator's two Cs and one L. You know, I thought it had two Ls and it doesn't. So prfit.biz/accelerator to snag your spot it's like last chance so you got a few days. But then summer camp is the first few days of June like specifically the first Saturday and Sunday of June.Brad Crowell 5:27  Yeah. This is going to be a big deal, y'all.Brad Crowell 5:29  You guysBrad Crowell 5:30  This is like a huge, huge event. Lesley Logan 5:31  So everyone loves summer camp last yearBrad Crowell 5:33  And you don't want to miss it. Lesley Logan 5:34  We wanted to make this summer camp the biggest thing ever. And like we also know that there's not a ton of in-person Pilates events for people who are nerds of Pilates. So this is not just for teachers. This is for people who practice Pilates, too. And so the OPC teachers and I are doing workshops and workouts, then we're bringing in some guest teachers as well. You can literally spend entire day with me moving your body and how like learn from so many amazing people will have a pre and postnatal workshop in there as well. So if you can also buy day pass, I mean, there's just so many awesome things. If you are on the waitlist, you are going to get one of the best early bird prices now I say one of it's because OPC members will get the best. So the best thing you can do is be an OPC number. But if you're not ready to commit to us yet, totally get it. Go to opc.me/workshops plural, and you can get on the waitlist and you will hear when the doors open for summer camp. And you can get the early bird special on all the goodness that's happening and you'll have lifetime access. So if you're like oh my gosh, guys, I'm busy. Guess what? You should buy it while it's on early bird because full price is a lot of money. And then you c

I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started. Lesley Logan 1:08  Hi, how are you, Be it babe? Okay. This is one of those special moments where we get to have one of our guests back because my gosh, she's just a thought leader and I love her grace and her support for all of us as a woman listening to this so we can really step into our hugely amazing power like us. If you haven't listened to the first episode with Kelly Adame, you should go listen to that one. Now you can listen to this one and go listen that one but it's trust me, it's going to be these back-to-back episodes are going to be really, really special for you. And today's topic of what Kelli Adame is so knowledgeable at which is masculine feminine energies in relationships. We're actually talking about how to spot like healthy, masculine energy, which I think is so important. And also like some of the downfalls as women is what we do, that doesn't cultivate that not to put blame on ourselves, because we're not I'm not at all, she's not at all, none of that's happening. But some of the things that we may have been raised to do that are not helping us in that area. And then also some things that we tend to do thinking that someday our prince is going to come. And so whether you are in a relationship, single, somewhere in between totally celibate and swearing them off forever, like there's so much in this episode, I think is really important because we all do have men and women in our lives. And we can really start to see where we can do some self-work on ourselves to continue to attract incredible humans in our lives. And also some permission to give ourselves to just stop doing things. Ladies, you don't have to do things all the time, we can just be in the feeling of it. So I really hope that this episode with Kelli gives you lots of permission. She's got some great Be It Action Items on both episodes. And I already want her back like I already want her back. So anyways, she is awesome. Here is Kelli Adame. Lesley Logan 3:04  All right, Be It Babe, we've got a guest back already. I'm so excited. I'm so excited because I just got to re-listen to her first episode. And by the time this is out, it's already aired. And my husband Brad, listen to it two times. That's how much he fell in love with you. So Kelli Adame, you are back. You are the queen of all things when it comes to masculine and feminine energies and like really showing up in our relationships. And there's so much to talk about when we finished that episode, we wanted to talk we're like, well, we didn't even touch on this. So before we talk about what we're talking about can you tell everyone more about who you are in case it's the first time they're listening to your voice? Kelli Adame 3:40  Yes. So my name is Kelli Adame and I'm trained and educated as a depth psychotherapist and a relationship coach to train sort of entrepreneur. So I've been in private practice full-time for 10 years, which has been amazing. And now I'm really pivoting to be more of an educational vehicle for people. Because I think a lot of the reason people struggle is because they don't know what they don't know. So I'm super excited to just be sharing more of what I know, that's been transformational in my life and in the life of just hundreds of my one-on-one clients, men and women. So I love it. This is like my just happy place. And I'm so excited to be talking more good stuff with you. Lesley Logan 4:19  Yeah, I'm really thrilled and it's true. I think, well, y'all have to go listen to the first episode she had on we'll get that on the show notes because it it really was eye-opening for me to understand like, oh, okay, this is, this might be why there's friction in the household because we're both trying to like show up in this way and someone has to receive and someone has to cherish and there's got to be this thing and so, so what I wanted to focus on today was you know, we talked a bit more I felt like about feminine energy on the first episode and we talked a little bit like you mentioned, your husband is like, you know, a very integrated healthy, masculine energy who knows the work. And I was just like, so what is that because also I feel like especially today in politics, there's a lot in the news. There's a lot of talk about, like, toxic masculinity. And I'm like, okay, I think we're all, we can, we don't have to dive into that topic. But like, what if we actually focus on like, what is healthy masculinity? And what does that look like? And that kind of energy? Because that would be nice if you go, ooh, spotted, green light. Let's go. That's the one. Kelli Adame 5:20  Yes, yes. No. 100%. So it's so interesting, because I think listen, I have come to a place in my own journey and in my work, I have such authentic respect for good men. Like, genuinely there's so much to be grateful for about good men in the world. And when I came to understand that and then experienced (inaudible), specifically, because I didn't always date good men just to be real, right? Like, when I really encountered that in a way that I was like, wow, I didn't even know this was a thing. Like I didn't even know I could be loved this way, pursued this way, feel protected, feel cherished, feel chosen, but but feel more of who I am not less of who I am in that dynamic. You know what I mean? So, yeah, so there is a lot of stuff about, you know, unhealthy men. There are a lot of unhealthy wounded men in the world. There are some just, conmen sociopaths, malignant narcissists. And you want to be able to identify those men so that you don't get oxytocin bonded and then taken down? A terrible, terrible rabbit hole of pain, right?Lesley Logan 6:30  Yeah, we had (inaudible). Sorry, go ahead. Kelli Adame 6:33  No, no, go ahead. Lesley Logan 6:34  I was gonna say we had someone who, we had Rebecca Zung on recently, about narcissism. And she said this really poignant thing, she said narcissists don't pick up pick you because you're, they think you're weak. They pick you because you've got something that they want to like vampire off of. So like, so for the women, listen, if you're like, oh, my God, I'm the one who keeps picking the narcissist. Like, it's not that you're picking them. They're literally going she's got something I

I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started. Lesley Logan 0:47  Hello, Be It babe. Welcome to the Fuck Yeah Friday episode. The FYF. I'm so excited for these they are so fun because I could celebrate your wins. I could just share the wins of mine which means I have to keep track of mine and we get to live a little mantra and it's really fun to quick dose to quick hit and hopefully get a little something out of it because sometimes you don't have a full 30 minutes to get your nuggets of gym information to help you be it till you see it. So this one's from Kelly Nyhan. It's worth repeating if it inspires a few solopreneurs and or women that are going off on their own studio or solo living and working. So Kelly is an agency member you guys and she owns a studio by herself and she has her own place and like all these things. So here is her win. I have been on my own since 2018 and making it, more than making it. I live in Chicago and it's cold, hot and expensive. I am single and I have a biz that I love. If you need some info or need a bit of pep to know that you can do this. Hit me up. I am light years behind making all perfect and I don't have all the marketing down but every day I tried to get 1% smarter, every week, push the needle a little more. I just wanted to post this in case you need to hear this. This can be scary. But action brings clarity and knowing my numbers I can sleep at night. I know I can do things so much better. Just one day at a time. I will say when I joined agency in 2019 my biz grew noticeably more than that. My numbers grow and I grow. Thanks to this community of women of badasses. Just knowing that I'm not alone helps you so much. You guys, Kelly Nyhan has made more each and every year that she's been with us and what her studio brings in by herself. No renters, no memberships, no affiliates, it's something that is so powerful, so amazing and something that I love celebrating with her because too often, I meet women who are like I'm alone by myself some only make like $50,000. PS, you can make so much more and you don't have to have a thousand million followers or have all the lead magnets in place you can actually just be really frickin good at taking care of yourself, knowing your numbers, and putting in going 1% better. So I frickin love that Kelly, thank you for sharing that. So all the women listening can realize that they can do it too. Lesley Logan 2:59  Okay. Stephanie Eder she started a mentor training with UK Claire and unable to put the breath components into action with my clients and they are feeling the difference. Heck, I'm feeling the difference. My sleep has improved. I told myself no more training for at least a year, but I'm so happy I chose this one. So Stephanie Eder was in. She is an agency and she was one of my eLevators last year and she is taking Claire Sparrows' training. And you guys remember Claire Sparrow from the pod. She's also been in some FYFs because she published a great book. And so if you are wanting to go through her pelvic floor training, you should definitely reach out to her. So thank you, Kelly and Stephanie for sharing your amazing wins. It's so fun to celebrate what you're doing. Lesley Logan 3:38  Al right, my win. So, here's the deal. I, I made an intention I think you might have heard from one of the FYFs that this year, I wanted to meet up with more people in person in Las Vegas, like more women in person I'm trying to what I realized is I don't have the community that I had in L.A. because what we had an L.A., there would be these monthly meetups, with all these other local fitness instructors, and it just was really fun like as part of communities, and someone was arranging it. And now I live in a place where there's no one arranging it. And I'm in charge of several communities. So I really don't want to be in charge of another one to be completely honest. But I interviewed Nada Nasserdeen, and she's going to be on the podcast. In fact, she's probably on the same month that this is dropping. So she's on the podcast and she and I were like, we just need to like hang out more and let's have a coffee date. And so we set a, picked the time in a day that the two of us could do. And then we literally just invited people and we went to a coffee shop I didn't know reminding to the people I invited I just was like if you're going to come put in your calendar now this is it. Because I don't want to be in charge of this group. I just want to be in this group. And it was the most fun. There was seven women who came. I knew Nada and I knew the girl, one of the girls I invited. I did not know this other girl that was introduced to Nada and I. Nada invited another girl and that girl invited someone. And then the girl I invited invited someone. So we had this like group of people and only like, like, I knew what one person look like. Other people knew what one person looked like. So it was just really fun to like, blind date a bunch of amazing women in this in this town, and I'm sure I'll have some of them on the pod. And we are working hard to pick our next date. So we're trying to meet up monthly, but we're, we're really wanting it to be something that's super fun, we can just connect and share connections and share leads on things and I was like, here's how I, here's how I do my makeup. So I don't have to actually do my makeup. Here's my bookkeepers so you don't have to do your bookkeeping. So it's just really, really fun to live and to learn. I learned something about real estate that I had no idea about. Just amazing. And so that's why win. My intention is to hang up with people in person. I set the first, we set the first date, I went to the first thing and obviously, it's not going to just do it on its own. But I love that the first one happened and I can celebrate that. Lesley Logan 5:58  All right now for your mantra for the weekend. Or the week if you want to do that. I am proof enough of who I am and what I deserve. I am proof enough of who I am. And what I deserve. My dear, you are proof enough of who you are and what you deserve. Thank you so much for listening to the Be It Pod. You really are an inspiration to me. You're why we do this. You sharing this, you listen to this, you writing in, it means the world to me, I had someone reach out and say they've been listening to 70 episodes and I'm just like, oh my freaking goodness. Thank you so much. I hoped that someday someone would do that. Because I do that to podcasts all the time and to have it happen to mine it's just like dreams come true. So my dears, you are proof enough of who you are and what you deserve. Thank you so much.

Let's get started.  Lesley Logan 1:01  Welcome back to the Be It Till You See It interview recap where my co-host in life, Brad, and I are going to dig into the inclusionary combo I have with Rebekah Borucki in our last episode. If you haven't yet listened that episode, go back and listen to it because holy frickin moly.Brad Crowell 1:14  She is a powerhouse. Lesley Logan 1:15  She is a powerhouse. She's a badass, she's like, like just all things amazing. Just all things amazing. So you should just pause this, go listen to that and come back. Or you can listen to this first because you're here and maybe you're you know, got your hands wet. And then make sure your podcast plays right into the one from Tuesday. Before we get into Rebekah's amazing words, today is March 21st 2024 and it is both world Poetry Day and Companies That Care Day. So I couldn't pick because I like them both because one, poetry, Rebekah is a founder of a publishing house. So like and she's a writer, so that kind of made sense. And then companies that care. She is a company that cares. So I kind of liked they both landed on this day. World Poetry Day was actually invented by UNESCO in 1999. So it's all here to like protect poetry. And I'm not a good poetry writer. But shout out to Alison Whipple, who is one of our agency members who is like, very humble, but also a very, very published poet, and does some amazing work. And then companies that care, you know, what you tell us about your company that, you know, that cares. But basically what that is, is like, companies are supposed to start to recognize that it's their employees that are if their employees are happy, they're a better company, so they should give some it fucks about the people that they hire, period. End of story. Okay, so upcoming events and travel and such. I'm actually getting on a plane tomorrow to go to Dallas. Yeah. But when I get back, Brad has an amazing two-hour workshop for Pilates instructors and business owners. Brad Crowell 2:45  Yes, I do. It's called the Studio Growth Accelerator, and y'all should join me. So basically, we are going to be digging into our new Accel formula, A-C-C-E-L. It's going to be a deep dive into how we can create jumpstart, kickstart, actually generate the growth that your studio needs to have. So if you are feeling like you have been stuck, you're looking for clients, you make the same money you got last year, you just can't get the get the ball moving forward. This accelerator is for you. And you can join me by going to PRfit.biz/accelerator that's PRfit.biz/accelerator. It's gonna be a two-hour workshop. So, you know, our two-hour hangout we'll probably talk for about 90 minutes and then we'll do Q&A or something. So yeah, come join me.Lesley Logan 3:39  And then we have we're getting up we've been playing all day today that we're recording this summer camp. Oh my gosh, so last year at OPC, OnlinePilatesClasses.com we had our first ever summer camp there's six teachers was super super fun. This particular year I want to do it bigger and better and better and more think just like true summer camp vibes without the bunk beds without the without the bugs without the travel and there is access Brad Crowell 4:04  Without the terrible roommate.Lesley Logan 4:05  Yeah, you won't have a terrible roommate, you won't have like crappy food. Brad Crowell 4:08  Your parents won't be dropping you off.Lesley Logan 4:10  Like fake cheese you know like, no, no, no, it's gonna you'll be able to attend from the comfort of your own home with your camera off if you want to. And you'll have lifetime access to the replays which is super, super amazing. So you want to go to opc.me/workshops, opc.me/workshops, you want to be on the waitlist if you want to get the best. I'm actually you want to be an OPC member if you want to get the best OPC price (inaudible) they are and then people on the waitlist get the next hookup and then those who are neither of those get the next hookup which is not as good as the first hookup or the second one. So just so you know. And then finally as we're recording this we actually only have like how many spots left in Cambodia?Brad Crowell 4:50  Two, two spots left. Lesley Logan 4:52  And actually before this episode comes out, (inaudible) someone's already, somebody's already doing an email, a mass email to their people. So it's quite possible by the time you listen to this, it is actually sold out. Brad Crowell 5:06  However. Lesley Logan 5:07  However, we've already planned 2025. Brad Crowell 5:10  That's right. Lesley Logan 5:10  Yeah. So you actually can purchase your spot now for the February 2025 retreat.Brad Crowell 5:17  And I would recommend you do it because this one sold out real fast. Lesley Logan 5:21  It didn't even take two months. It's insane. And so we're super, super excited about this. It's our very special retreat. It's really magical. And we actually got to hang out with a couple of our Cambodia retreaters in real life here in Las Vegas. And they were talking about all the amazing stuff that they took away from it and like implemented right away. So I just love that. So anyways, crowsnestretreats.com. Crows (that's a plural) nestretreats.com. All right, before we get into Rebekah's amazingness. What is our audience question, Brad? Brad Crowell 5:54  Yeah, we had a great one from Angela today on Instagram. She's asking, Have you any experience with upholstery cracking on your reformers, the studio I work for has Merrithew reformers and it seems to be a recurring issue. I'm wondering if the cleaners they're using are too harsh. And the boss says it's just human skin oils. But I've not had this problem with mine at home, nor have I heard about it from other teachers who use other brands like Legacy or Balanced Body. Lesley Logan 6:22  Okay, Angela. So here's the deal. If it was body oil, it would not be cracking it, it would actually be like white moisturizing it or like oiling it like it's actually like oil is actually really great Brad Crowell 6:36  The oil isn't gonna dry it out. Lesley Logan 6:38  Now, I will say this, you didn't ask for this. But there are some manufacturers and I won't name names because I'm not interested in being yelled at. But where whatever they used to coat the wood of their, also, it was not, it doesn't happen on my Contrology but there are some wood push-through bars, and also wood reformers that whatever they use to like, shine up the wood, when you use cleaner on it the human sweat makes it sticky. So that is awful and gross. And like, I will never buy that brand of equipment because you can't unfix that. But as far as upholstery cracking it is 100% the material you're using, and or not material, like cleaning supplies. Yeah. Brad Crowell 7:24  Like if they're using Pine Sol on it. Lesley Logan 7:26  Well, yeah, you should not be using that. Also if you're using like a like, you want to make sure that any of those wipes you're using because now that we're in

So, you know, I'm sticking with this. If I could work in the children's space all the time, I love my authors. I love all of my authors at Hay House, but if I could just like hire another president and be in the children's space, I, 100% would.Lesley Logan 0:24  Welcome to the Be It Till You See It podcast where we talk about taking messy action, knowing that perfect is boring. I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started. Lesley Logan 1:06  Hi, Be It babe. Okay, get ready. Get ready. So our guest today is Rebekah Borucki. She is the founder of Row House Publishing. Oh my goodness. Oh my goodness. What an incredible story. What an incredible journey. What an incredible life she is living. And I am so grateful Roxy, for you making this massive connection. I am in awe of what Rebekah is doing and also like her ability to share that and also give you options. So we're going to talk a little bit about activism here, we're going to talk about her being going growing up and then becoming an author, a published author, and then switching from a publishing (inaudible) into owning her own and starting your own and then really taking care of authors. And then also the work she's doing for her children, K through 12 for reading, and I'm just you're gonna be fired up, I'm fired up, there is information on how to support her publishing company, there's also a, I'm going to put some in the show notes and with the charities that like little readers that you can have, you can donate to, because it is called littlereadersbigchange.com. So we'll make sure that all those things are in there. If you're wondering like, a little bit why this matters, I can tell you right now that because my mom made sure that during my year of kindergarten, she read to me 500 books, that my ability to dream, be creative. kind of go outside with the world today and think of something that could possibly happen and then make that happen is because of books. And I took a lot of years off of reading. And then I recently started reading again, and not reading. I've read a lot of books or just mostly workbooks, but like reading some months, some fiction and like just some other stuff. And I'm a ferocious reader. I love it. And I think it is important for children of all ages everywhere to see themselves in books out there. And so Rebekah Borucki is making that happen. She's one of many people and I'm so honored to share her with you today. So take a listen. And if you can support her publishing company or Little Reader Big change in any way, please do and we're going to look at those Be It Action Items. They're brilliant, they're amazing, and they're going to support you. Here is Rebekah Borucki. Lesley Logan 3:20  All right, Be It babe. Welcome to the podcast. I'm so excited for today's guest she has a connection with a dear friend who's also been on the show Roxy Menzies and so we have Rebekah Borucki here today she is a self-published author which is just I think it's interesting we have to even identify between self-published and like published, republish because writing a book, and you're both. Okay, so she's hyphenated. She's a multifaceted author of children's books and I'm so excited to have you here, Rebekah, will you tell us who you are and what you rock at?Rebekah Borucki 3:49  Okay, well, I'm Rebekah, who introduced me and got my name, right. That's awesome. Pronouns are she/they. I am the president and founder of Row House Publishing, also, Wheat Penny Press, which preceded Row House, which was the children's publishing house. And then also the Little Readers Big Change Initiative, which is our nonprofit that provides literacy, or literacy resources and books and author visits to K-12 schools in under-resourced districts. And we also support black-owned indie bookstores and black and brown creators. So we do a lot. I do a lot. Lesley Logan 4:22  You do a lot. Rebekah Borucki 4:24  I have five kids, I can't forget them. That's my most important job and one grandbaby. So. Lesley Logan 4:29  Oh my God, you don't look old enough to have a grandbaby and also when you said five kids for a split second, I thought you were joking. Like just saying I do all this and I have five kids, but then it's like, no, no, she's really, it's five kids. Okay. I feel like we have to go back a little bit like was it always a dream of yours to be an author? Was this something you fell into? I also, you know, I think it's amazing what you're doing for readers of schools, like I grew up, my, thank goodness, my mom made sure I read I think it changed my life. You know, so can you tell me how this, where do we begin? Rebekah Borucki 5:02  So, my parents didn't make sure I read at all. I grew up in a lower middle class or not middle class, I'm sorry, lower middle, or working class, working class family, in a very small working class town, lived under the poverty line, my entire pre-adult life, really struggled with food insecurity, all that stuff. So it was really a matter of just survival. But I loved school. And I love to write, I absolutely did not dream of becoming a writer because I didn't think that was even something you could do for a living. And I had a teacher, Glenda Autry. She was my first black teacher in middle school, I'm mixed race. And so she kind of like took all like the black and brown girls under her wing. And there was one report card, she wrote a note home. And I still have the note, and said, Rebekah's writing is beautiful. I can't wait to read one of her books one day. And it was just like that glimmer of, oh, that's something that I can do. And people think I could do that set me not on a path to writing but set me on a path to explore my creativity. Even on the side, I was a teen mom, I had three kids before I was 25. So there were a lot of obstacles in me going my own way. But I'm also completely unemployable. I'm autistic, I hate being outside, I don't do well in front of crowds of people. So I had to kind of make up my own way. And I hustled and created a platform, a wellness platform, I was doing yoga and meditation for a really long time. I was published with Hay House, two books with Hay House. Long story short, they're super racist and exclusive over there. So I had to leave in 2020 and start my own publishing h

Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started.  Lesley Logan 0:46  Welcome back to the Be It Till You See It podcast. Today is a FYF, it's a Fuck Yeah Friday, it's a day where we celebrate a win of yours, a win of mine and a little affirmation to kick off our weekend and to give ourselves permission to be exactly where we are and who we are and be celebrating the little things because sometimes it's the little things that really take off and it's the little things that put you exactly where you need to be. So I'm so excited for today because we are halfway through March. Holy, holy, frickin molly, right, holy, how did that happen? Lesley Logan 1:17  So okay, let me get to your win first because it's so fun to share yours and this is from agency member Mary Dellanina. And she said FYF I took two weeks off to play in the sunshine of California, not having the money come in for two weeks is difficult, but having the space to journal, go to other Pilates studios, hike by and re-energize my mind and body will benefit me and my students. Had many people signed up for classes while I was away and two new students will be coming next week, happy they're looking at the weeks ahead of them. Students fill the slots up by snowbirds. And I'm so happy the spots filled, resting poolside today and soaking up the vitamin D. I love this Mary. Was just here at the house for a retreat that I had for business owners, we had a small invite-only business retreat here, which is I'll get more into that with my win. But I love it because one of the things we focused on the agency members is being able to take time off for themselves and or for their business and get paid to do it. And so it can be hard to like not see the money come in. But actually it already came in because you got paid for this time off the way that we work with our teachers with their magic calculator. So way to go, Mary.Lesley Logan 2:25  One more win. I'm going to share this because I have a few in. This one's from Bianca Filoteo. FYF got an amazing five-star Google review from a client we're working with since September. And celebrating one year of opening my studio, revenue this month was higher than last year. So 2024 is off to a great start. That's right, it is. Congratulations, happy anniversary of your studio. The first two years are the hardest. So way to go. It's so, so hard to open up a space, especially when you don't have the clientele yet. So congrats, Bianca, you deserve that five-star review. Lesley Logan 2:55  Okay, so my win is the business retreat. It is, I had, if you were a part of the FYFs a couple of weeks ago, you knew I had a Pilates retreat, then we actually went for the Pilates retreat, business retreat into the (inaudible). So we actually did two retreats in one week here at the house. So humongous undertaking. The reason I wanted to do it that way, though, is because I didn't want people to fly here twice. And I knew a lot of people would stay for the whole week. And so, so many people would say, nope, spread those apart, you can't do it. But we did it. And we did it via waitlist. And we did it without public promotion. And we did it in a way that served the people who are coming really easy for them to fly at one time instead of two times. And so that is just a humongous win. It's like sometimes the advice out there is to just do things safely. And um, and yes, you should always consider the risks that are there. But you also have to listen to your gut. And so I'm just so happy I listened to my gut. And for a lot of people asking if we're doing another business retreat or another Pilates retreat here at the house? And the answer is I can't tell you right now. And that's also a second win. It is okay to just celebrate what you did do and not move so far so fast to get to the next thing. I'm sitting in the celebration of how incredibly impactful and just amazing it was to have all those women here at the house and learning about their business and diving in and supporting them and taking time off and creating space for them to learn about what their business needs are and to give them that. And they're just incredible. And I can't wait to see what happens with our business. The first time we did the business retreat, we had people open up studios and they doubled their income a year later. And so I'm just so proud of the results that we get. And yes, that may mean that we should have another one already. But the truth is, that's not how it works. There's so much in just sitting still. And that was last week's affirmation, right? Lesley Logan 4:51  So this week's affirmation for you to repeat to yourself is I hold wisdom beyond knowledge. I hold wisdom beyond knowledge. Right? You can know something and you can really know something. So you can take in all the information in the world but what wisdom do you have? I have wisdom beyond knowledge. Thank you so much for listening to the Be It Pod. You are why we do this and I'm so grateful for you and happy FYF. What's your win? Make sure you send it to the Be It Pod, we want to shout it out to you. Lesley Logan 5:23  That's all I got for this episode of the Be It Till You See It Podcast.

It actually comes from you taking action. When you know you can bet on yourself you have self-confidence and that people-pleasing, that not-having-boundaries, that not-doing-something-until-you-feel-ready (in air quotes) is actually crippling people from building the life they want. That's what she discovered.Lesley Logan 0:26  Welcome to the Be It Till You See It podcast where we talk about taking messy action, knowing that perfect is boring.

If you haven't yet listened to that interview, feel free to pause this now. Go back and listen to that one and then come back and join us. She is confident as fuck. I love her. You guys, we did go out for coffee. We invited a bunch of strangers it was blind date for business pitches in the best way. Like literally, you just, I just sat there and she and I just watched people looking around for a meetup group. And every person only knew what one person looked like. So hopefully each person showed up in the right order. So that the (inaudible) to be there. It was so fun. We're trying to work it as a monthly meetup. And I'm just so freaking grateful for her. So she's amazing. Before we get into that interview, Today is March 14th. It's Pi Day. Not P-I-E but P-I which is Brad Crowell 2:05  Private investigator. No.Lesley Logan 2:09  No. So.Lesley Logan 2:12  Any day that combines fun, education and pie is a day worth celebrating. That's what the people say. So Pi is a constant value used in math that represents the ratio of a circumference of a circle to its diameter.Brad Crowell 2:26  So which is just about 3.14 and I used to have to know like 15 characters so it was like 3-4-1-4-9-2 I can't fucking remember.Lesley Logan 2:34  I do remember being in a test it was in math. And this is stupid. I will never I will never need to know the rest of this number. Brad Crowell 2:34  Yeah, this is the ratio of a circumference of a circle to its diameter. Anyway, today, March 14th, which is 3-14 Lesley Logan 2:51  Is Pi Day because that's the first three numbers.Brad Crowell 2:53  We covered that.Lesley Logan 2:54  It's also Albert Einstein's birthday. Brad Crowell 2:57  That's right.Lesley Logan 2:58  The man with a crazy hair. It's nothing short of a mathematician's delight. Because today is Pi Day and his birthday he was destined to be born on this day. Brad Crowell 3:10  He was. Lesley Logan 3:12  So anyways, go Albert and go Pi. Also, upcoming, currently happening is the March Matness Challenge.
