Cambodia is a country that punches well above its weight in the wonder stakes. Home to the magnificent Angkor temple complex, it's a land where ancient stones tell tales of empire and excellence. But it's also a nation still processing its recent tragic past while racing toward an uncertain future. Here, morning prayers mix with techno beats, and traditional fishing villages float beside bustling cities. Welcome to one of the most enigmatic places on earth: Cambodia!Love the pod? Get the guide!

Angkor Thom is one of the few carveouts in the UNESCO portfolio, or, as it were, that they don't have to do that because the trees are 400 years old, 500 years old. They've grown on top of the temple there. And basically, if they were to take the trees off, the temple would fall apart.Lesley Logan 0:32  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.Brad Crowell 1:11  All right. Welcome back Be It babes. This is Brad here. Solo episode today. Hope you like the sound of my voice, because I'm just going to be rambling a little bit about my favorite topic in the entire world, going to Cambodia to spend time with the people there and enjoy some food there and go see the majestic, wonderful temples of Angkor Wat. It is obviously something I'm incredibly passionate about. You've heard me talk about it many, many times in this pod, if you're a listener. If you are brand new, welcome, welcome. We love having you joining us here on the Be It Pod. Cambodia, everybody always asks, hey, why Cambodia? Why? Right? Well, that's definitely my fault. The reality is, my mom bought at a yard sale. She bought, like, 10 years of National Geographic magazines for, I don't know, well, I don't know, I have no idea, I was like 10 years old, or 12 years old or something. Anyway, I opened up the very first one I remember, because I'm sure I looked at a lot, but the one I remember more than any other was opening up this, like, entire spread of Angkor Wat, right? And I didn't even know how to pronounce it at the time. I was a really young kid. But what I can tell you is I was way into dinosaurs, The Jungle Book and Transformers as a child, and when I saw this 10-page spread, or the spread of Angkor Wat in Nat Geo, this was like the Jungle Book in real life to me, and I was so excited about this, the curiosity that it inspired in me literally stayed with me until Lesley asked me, like, I don't know, 20 plus years later, hey, where do we want to go for our honeymoon? And my response instantly was, we're going to Cambodia.Brad Crowell 3:05  You know, and she's like, um, really, we're going to Cambodia. Why would we do that? Can we also go to Thailand? Can we also go to Japan? And I was like, of course, let's do those other things, too. But we have to go to Cambodia. I have to see Angkor Wat. I have to see the temples and the jungle temples. And you know, since then, I've been inspired a number of other times. I'm sure you're all aware that Angelina Jolie's version of Tomb Raider was actually filmed at the temples. It was filmed at Ta Prohm temple. That's, like, a really cool temple. It's actually really close to Angkor Wat. It's like, I don't know, 10 minutes away or 15 minutes away from Angkor, and so we have had a chance to go see that one. We saw the Angkor. We saw a temple called Bayon Temple, which actually they considered the, you know, at the time, because what's so cool about the history of Cambodia was a massive empire, is called the Khmer empire, K-H-M-E-R, Khmer Empire, and it covered all of Vietnam up into Lao, Laos, you know, Lao over into Thailand. It's very influenced by India, very influenced by the Thai, and then obviously, what was considered Cambodia today. So it was this massive, massive place. And Angkor was in the middle, and there's a city there, and the city is like fortified, there's a moat around the whole thing. It's this huge city, and in the very center of that city is Bayon Temple. And so they actually consider Bayon temple the center of the universe. They consider the center tower all the way up at the top to be like this pinnacle place that had a spiritual meaning. And the amount of wonder that Angkor inspires in me keeps me going back. Brad Crowell 4:42  When Lesley and I first went in 2016, we realized when we got home we loved Thailand, we loved Japan, but there was something magical about Cambodia that made us go, how do we go back? How do we go back? And that was the beginning of trying to figure that out. We try to figure out, how do we go? What do we need to do to get back there? Initially, we were like, hey, let's ask all of our friends and they'll come with us. This is gonna be super cool. And they were like, yeah, we're interested. But it never came to fruition, right? It was like, oh, yeah, maybe, we're not sure. Couldn't get anybody to actually commit. Lesley went back to her clients and said, is this ever been on anybody's bucket list going to Angkor? We are thinking about hosting a retreat there. And literally, like a dozen of her clients were like, yes, we're in, absolutely, let's do it. And we figured out a window of time that would work for everyone, and we gave ourselves roughly a year to put it all together, because we didn't know anybody. We had one contact there, and that was our tour guide. And so he was super generous. He was just a really helpful connector. And he helped guide us through figuring out, like, who should we talk to for hosting the retreat? And, you know, just all the things, any kind of question. And it was just lovely to have him. So a big shout out to Stephane De Greef and a big thank you to him. Eventually, when he decided to leave Cambodia and move over to Panama and then wherever he's at now, he contacted me and said, hey, man, I'm leaving, but let me introduce you to everybody that I know. And he did. He opened his Rolodex and just introduced us to all these different people there. And it was incredible. Brad Crowell 6:16  So we had the chance to go back in 2017 for our very first trip with Lesley's clients, and we rented a yoga shala. And the shala was really, really awesome. The people were really lovely. And so we decided to rent it again, and we run another group, and we rented a third time, and the third time, the experience just didn't work. It wasn't what we wanted. And it was actually frustrating, because when Lesley and I turned to ourselves and we were like, hey, maybe we should go get a hotel from our own retreat, we were like, yeah, we can't do this anymore. We got to find a better solution. And that's when we decided to go get our own place, right? And so now we'd been there four times at this point, and we just had a bunch of people that we knew. We reached out to them and said, hey, we're looking for a spot. How do we do this? And they helped connect the dots and help us get going. And basically it turned into this hunt for the right spot, the right place for us to take over and turn into ours. And in 2018 that happened, and it was so exciting. I remember flying back, it was really quick too, like, we got this message from our real estate person. They were like, hey, I think I actually found the right spot. And they gave us all these reasons why, and they really understood our mission and our vision. They really understood what we were trying to do. And they said, we actually like the people that you would be working with to do this, because we're not Cambodian. We can't actually own the land. We're not allowed. We're not a citizen, so we have to have a relationship with people who do own the land there, and they're literally our land lord, and we pay them as if it's like a lease, but we own all the things on it. We own a business there. We have a team there, all that stuff. And so he said, I actually think these people are going to be amazing, and they encourage people coming to visit Cambodia, and they care about it, and they're passionate about it, and so they're right. It was amazing. We met them. They were incredibly gracious and lovely, and we've had, at this point, many, many, many years of building a relationship with them. They're just awesome people, and we absolutely lucked out in that regard. And what we did is we took over this property that has a 12 bedroom apartment complex on it, and allowed us to begin to have our own place to bring you know, people from all around the world to come visit and have a safe, secure, clean, fun place. It's also quiet. We're right off the beaten path. We're like 10 minutes walk from the chaos of Pub Street and wow, like all the loud, but we're far enough away that you don't hear it. We're close enough to walk, but far enough away that it doesn't actually impact you. So it's so awesome. From the place we're like, maybe, oh, I don't know, 15 minutes drive to the Temple of Angkor Wat, which is the largest religious structure in the world. It is still functioning today. They absolutely use it for religious ceremonies and stuff. There's a mix of Hinduism and Buddhism in the way that, it's primarily Buddhist today. You know, you can still find other religions there. There's some Christianity, there's some Muslim faiths there. Primarily it's Buddhist, but the history of the country is a mash up of Hinduism and Buddhism because of war, right? It would be like invaded and then, you know, taken over and taken back and back and forth and all this stuff. And so consequently, there's actually a lot of history that was destroyed by the invading army. They'd come in and break all the statues, and then, you know, the other they build theirs. And then these guys would come back, and it would go back and forth over the centuries that that kind of thing happened. And what's so amazing is all of that is still there. It is available to be seen. It is just the most mind-bending thing when you get there and you're like, this is a thousand years old. This statue that I'm looking at here, they carved this. How did they do this? How did they move the stone? How did they even get this here? Like, how did they think this stuff up? Is it is so mind-blowing to me, because it's exactly in line with the stars and meridian lines and longitude and latitude, the amount of science and thought and understanding of architecture and structural integrity and the building materials and the process of doing it, it is so incredibly thought through and advanced. And then the art itself, the carvings, the planning, how could they have thousands of meters of wall? And it's not a repeat carving anywhere in the entire thing. It's all unique. Every single person in that that's carved into the wall is like, different from the person next to it. You know, it's amazing. It's just incredible. And they spent, I don't know, I think it was a couple decades to build Angkor Wat, like 30 plus years or something. But every time I go, I see something new. Every single time I go, I see something new. Brad Crowell 10:43  And so when we go, what we love to do is take our guests through the temples in a way that you would not normally go if you were to just show up and hire a typical tour guide, tuk guide kind of a thing. You'll see the big three, you know, you'll go to the city of Angkor Thom. You'll actually go to Angkor Wat, of course, which is the temple itself. You'll go to Bayon Temple, usually, and maybe one other place. So whatever one they'll probably take you to the jungle temple Ta Prohm, like I was saying that Angelina Jolie filmed at because that's a really mysterious temple as well, with this epic trees that have grown over top of the temple. In fact, Angkor Thom is really cool because this is a UNESCO heritage site now. And normally, if it's a UNESCO heritage site, they are required to, slowly, over time, rebuild the whatever the structure is to be as if it was the original structure, right? Angkor Thom is one of the few carve-outs in the UNESCO portfolio, as it were, that they don't have to do that, because the trees are 400 years old, 500 years old, they've grown on top of the temple there. And basically, if they were to take the trees off, the temple would fall apart. And so they got this exception to keep the everything as it is right now. And that makes it even more cool. I mean, it's just, it's so amazing. So when everybody arrives on Sunday night, we we just hang out. We do like class, we get some food, we usually go get a massage, and then the next morning, we get up and we have class, and then we have the morning off, because after lunch, we all hop on our tour bus and we go see a series of temples. We go to the south gate at Angkor Thom, we go see a pagoda. A pagoda is like a place of worship for monks today, it's kind of like a church, but it's usually open air, open-walled, right? So it's just like a covered building, generally. Sometimes they're, they've got walls and everything, too. But these pagodas that are inside of Angkor Thom are open-aired. And so we go see this pagoda, and there's like monks actually practicing there. And it's really neat to see the community still lives there, and they still do life there, right? So, and then we go in to Bayon Temple, and we go, from there, we might be able to go up to see Angkor or the elephant terrace, which is this like place where the king today still will go up to Angkor and you know, he will have a big ceremony once a year there. The royal family goes there. And then from there, we'll go to the north gate, and we'll see the different gates that they have. And they're all unique. They're all, you know, the similar concept, but they're all unique. And of course, the vegetation, the trees are different, the views are different, all that. Then we'll go out the east gate, and we'll go over and see Ta Prohm, right? Along the way, we'll stop at another place, Chau Say Tevoda, which is a smaller temple that was like, considered a library. There were twin temples there. So there's one on one side of the road, one on the other, the one is in way better shape than the the other side. So we always go to the one that actually is, like in repair. You know, maybe we walk through the jungle a little bit there. And, you know, there's, like, usually there's monkeys, which are not your friend, but they're usually there, too. We get a chance to go through and peek into the past. That is just mind-blowing. And my favorite part of going to Cambodia, well, one of my favorite parts, to be honest, because I really can't pick, is being able to go explore these temples. And there's just something that is so otherworldly about it, because you don't see this in the United States, right? You don't find this stuff, probably not even up in Canada. You might see something comparable in Europe, but it's different, right? The massive cathedrals in Europe could be like, 1000 years old too, but it's not the same as it being like, overtaken by the jungle and then carved out after they re-, quote-unquote, rediscovered it in the, you know, 1860s basically, a French guy discovered it in the 1860s again and brought it back to light in western civilization. And then the French actually occupied Cambodia for like, 100 years. And it wasn't until 1960s that Cambodia became Cambodia. Before that, it was an occupied territory of from the French, and it got its independence in the 60s. Brad Crowell 14:45  The second thing that is just amazing is the food. In Cambodia, they don't cook with milk or dairy products. There's no cheese. It's not standard. They also are generally light on the sauces, right? It's not like Thai food. Where everything has its own sauce, and it's half sauce and half whatever the dish is. It's different than that. They make a lot of curries, like I mentioned, it is, you know, a lot of influence from India and Thailand. There are a lot of noodle dishes, but there's a lot of rice dishes, and it's generally really clean eating, right? So if it's a rice dish, it's rice with a small side salad and then a little bit of prepared meat. Their quote-unquote sauce might be like salt and pepper mix, right? It's not sloshed with all this stuff. And so it's really great food. And it just, it's clean, easy, it's always farm to table, because they don't really have the big processing system that we do in the United States. So everything just tastes so good. I love it. And what we do, we get to work with, this is super special, when we moved there, there was this organization, it's an NGO, or a non-government organization that was started by somebody in the United States. They went there and they had a passion for Cambodia, and they said, hey, we could help. We could affect change by creating, effectively, a vo-tech school, right? So what they did is they would raise money, and then they would go into the countryside, and they would sponsor these kids who were really poor, who could not afford to educate themselves. And they said, hey, if you want to, we will give you a full ride, a full scholarship to our school. You'll stay on campus. You'll learn how to work in the service industry. So we'll teach you how to be a chef. We'll teach you how to be a pastry chef. We'll teach you how to be a barista or a server or a bartender or a manager or whatever. And so it's all surrounding the service industry. And then after the end of the program, after these kids go through the program, which I don't remember how long, it could be a couple years, because they also have, like, regular classes, and there's a dormitory and all this stuff. When they graduate, they actually will help them get a job placement. So they might move down to the big city in Phnom Penh and they go to a fancy hotel there, or maybe they stay relatively local in Siem Reap or maybe they go abroad, I don't know, but the school helps them get placed for a job. And this organization is called Spoons. Well, it's called Spoons today. I can't remember what it was called prior, because unfortunately, during COVID, all the money dried up and all the support dried up, and it wasn't available for them. And unfortunately, the American support basically said, hey, we got to close the doors. We don't have any way to keep this going. And the locals, the team that they have built, the Cambodians, some of them were graduates themselves, then helping to run the school, said, hey, this is an amazing thing that's really helping people here. We want to keep this going. And so they went locally, and they found a couple of really generous donors to effectively step in on the financial side to help support the school. And they were able to keep the doors open. And Lesley and I were there in like 2020 and things were still operating like normal when we were there in March of 2020 but then we were gone for two years. We weren't back until 2022 so when we finally got back in 2022 we went over there and we were talking to them, and they said, somehow we made it through. It's been crazy, but we were able to keep the doors open. And this year, we are sponsoring 20 students. This is the first time that we've ever operated as a company, as an organization, without any outside support. It's all like done locally. It's now run by and owned by Cambodians. They call themselves the Khmer people, run by khmer, and they were really proud of that, because they were able to keep this institution that had been put into place operating. And then the next year they had like 50 students. And then this past year, we were there, you know, we were just there in February of 2025, now, and they have like 78 students. And we're so pleased to be able to work with them, because we have them deliver our meals during the week. And then on the final day of the trip, we actually all go over to the restaurant, to Spoons, and they serve us. The students are working at the restaurant. So, you know, there's the head chef is a graduate, or the manager is a graduate, and they're making sure the wheels stay on the bus, but the barista, the servers, the bussers, all the food prep, all that stuff, is done by the students themselves. And it gives us so much joy to be able to support that organization. And the food they make is amazing. It's so good. Brad Crowell 19:03  We want to invite you to come join us in Cambodia on a trip and experience these things for yourself and join us so that we can make sure that you really do have an incredible time.

We build it like that. It is the thing you can't put a price on, to be completely honest. Because, in life as adults, I think it can be really difficult to make friendships like there's so much going on. For example, I meant to text a girlfriend two weeks ago. She travels a lot. I travel a lot. Something happened in my life and Brad's like, I think you should text her and I was like, yeah, I should text her and I just didn't do it. And then I was taking my yoga class, oh my God, I need to text and see how she is. Now that I'm in town, I can't wait to see her. and after yoga class, she'd already text me. So I just fucking love that. But that friendship, while amazing and wonderful, and for sure, I can go a month without texting her, and we're still the deepest and wonderful of friends, on this retreat there is not a month to make a friendship. You make it in a minute. Lesley Logan 0:44  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 1:27  Hello, Be It babe. How are you? I'm your guest today. No, it's me, and I'm really excited to chat with you. I realized you hear about us talking about Cambodia a lot, like, in my clips of like, come with us, come do Pilates, come do this, and you probably take a week off of your life to get on a plane, and for most people, at least 17 hours of travel, but probably more like 21, to do all that, you probably want to know a little bit about what is it like, right? And so I thought I'd just have you like a lowdown of my three favorite parts. And on Thursday, Brad is going to tell you about his favorite parts about the retreat. And I hope that this really makes you realize, oh, I'm coming in October. This is going to be something I do. And if you're someone who wants to host your own retreat, you can actually use our system and our team helps that make it easier for you. Obviously, you'd replace Pilates with whatever it is you do. But at any rate, let me tell you a little bit, so first of all, why do we go to Cambodia? Why do we go to Siem Reap? Well, if you're at all like me, you're probably like, hmm, can I go to an island? Can I lay on a beach? And I definitely understand a vacation of that sort. But this is not that. And you come to this for a different reason. So first of all, when Brad and I got married, which would be 10 years ago this October, Brad and I got married he wanted to go to Siem Reap for our honeymoon. And I was like, wow, that is not what I thought honeymoon would be. I thought a honeymoon would be like an island in Thailand on a boat. But really, I was like, okay, well, if we do Siem Reap, can we go to Thailand, and we also went to Japan. It was really, really fun. And the most hilarious thing is like, what we resist is there to assist, because we landed in Siem Reap and I was, my soul is home. It was dark, you guys. It was so dark. We went straight to bed. But like, I just was so excited to be there. I love the smell of it. I love the energy. It was just so different. And I think, you guys, we have an episode that came out with Monique Rhodes about getting out into cultures that are different than ours, and getting a little uncomfortable. And I just realized there was like a sense of joy around me and energy inside me that was like this is amazing. I got up and we watched the sun rise over Angkor, and then we went to like, seven temples in one day, maybe nine, and I just knew I'd come back. And so a year later, we had two retreats that year. We took people, Pilates clients, there, and we just had so much fun. We did it again and again and again. Now we've been, I don't know, 10 or 12 retreats. At any rate, what happens when you come on a retreat with us, and the reason I think you will love this so much is I really believe that women should travel abroad. I think it's really important for women to see different ways the world works, see how different cultures support the people around them and community around them. I just thought it was just like the coolest thing. And so at any rate, I also know that traveling alone is not actually everyone's cup of tea, and also it might not feel very accessible or very safe. And so when we created this retreat, I wanted you to become to my home, because that's gonna make you feel more comfortable, right? And also we wanted to make it super easy, so that you don't even have to worry about, how do you get from the airport to where we are. It's a different country. t's a different language. Whenever I land in different country, I'm always like, okay, I know once I get to my hotel, I'm gonna be okay, but from the hotel to the airport, how does this work? Do I need a credit card? Do we have to have cash? Do you have to exchange already? What's the cultural system? How far is the airport? Sometimes they're so far away. So you don't have to worry about that, because we actually pick you up. We have one of our most amazing drivers, trusted drivers, who comes and picks you up. You come to our house and we do five Pilates classes over the six days. So we actually do a class when you arrive, just to stretch out from the plane, and I find out like, what your movement goals are that week and what exercises you want to move through. And each class helps each person build up to the practice and things that they want. And we had so many people, like this last retreat, we have people who never did Pilates before, to clients of ours who've been part of OPC for a really long time, to teachers who've been teaching for a really long time, and each person got to work on an exercise that they really struggled with and get some breakthroughs. It was really a lot of fun. And so we do one afternoon class, and then four mornings we do a class. We don't do a class on the sunrise day. I promise you, we get enough steps in. We do. We get enough steps in. And so it's just really quite fun to see also how your Pilates practice can change only in a week, but from day to day depending on what we did the day before, which is just fabulous. It's like creating the Pilates movement habit that you really want. We do it together on this retreat. Lesley Logan 5:39  So Brad will talk more about all the temples and the food and all the other stuff, but I wanted to tell you about the workshops. So I used to do Pilates mat workshops. And the truth is, is that it's hot. It's hot there. And two and a half hours working on our mats, on these exercises. While super fun and interesting, it's also just a lot. It's a lot on the body. It's a lot on the mind. And I don't think it makes your mat practice more consistent when you get home. The mat classes themselves do that. So I pulled together some my favorite things that are like podcast type, my business coaching type, my breath work stuff, all that stuff, I pulled it together, and I put this unique two day workshop together where we do breath work to visualize what we want. Who do we want to be? What is this Be It Till We See It, right? What is that? And then we journal, and you can share what you want. Obviously, don't have to. And then we go through all the different things that you should get clear on. So it's like everything, every Be It podcast has taught us roughly on manifestation and visualization into a workshop, and we end with breath work, and it's just so beautiful to solidify it. Lesley Logan 6:53  Then the next thing, we come back, I take that woo-woo, and I bring in stuff that makes it a one woo, which is, how do we actually get the thing we visualize to become reality? How do we do that? And I can tell you right now, because we've done this so many times, and we've had people do it twice, that we have a woman, her wins will be shared on a future FYF, that in less than six months of the retreat, and what she visualized, she's already doing the things that she put together, already, right, already done. So because we actually talk about, okay, so you're really busy. You've known you want this life for a really long time, but you don't know how to do it. We actually go through a series of exercises to make that a reality. Buy back your time. Make it easier for you to have the habits you want. Make a morning routine that you like to have. Make an ideal schedule that has you and your priorities in it. All the things that you hear me talk about in, like, short, quick sentences, we take hours to, like, really dive in and depending on who you are and where you're at in your life, one of the practices we do might be the exact thing you need, where the other one might be for someone else. It's just really fun, because by the end of the second workshop day, you have homework that you can take back on literally, what your first next step is to make this vision become a reality, to make this vision something you can be till you see. It's just really, really cool, and it's something that I promise you, like doing breath work outside and hearing birds chirping and sometimes a frog ribbiting to the side, and then the traffic's going by, like it's just really cool, like you're not so removed from life that you're woo, I'm off in Wonderland. And then you visualize something that's not even what you want, but it just sounds so spiritually amazing. No, you visualize what you want. Lesley Logan 8:35  And the thing that this retreat always attracts is the almost epic people, and they change you because they validate you. They see you. They high five you. We had a beautiful soul who was like, I don't want to feel like this. I don't feel like this emotion. I'm going to keep that between the retreaters and the women there didn't even know her, and they're like, no, no one would ever judge you for that. You don't need to feel like that. And validated her in a way they don't know her, you know. And so that to me, that community, that family, that we build, we build it in a class, we build it like that. It is the thing you can't put a price on, to be completely honest. Because in life, as adults, I think it can be really difficult to make friendships like there's so much going on. For example, I meant to text a girlfriend two weeks ago. She travels a lot. I travel a lot. Something happened in my life, and Brad's like, I think you should text her. And I was like, yeah, I should text her. And I just didn't do it. And then I was taking my yoga class. Oh my God, I need to text her and see how she is. Now that I'm in town, I can't wait to see her. And after yoga class, she'd already text me, so I just fucking love that. But that friendship, while amazing and wonderful, and for sure, I can go a month without texting her, and we're still the deepest and wonderful of friends, on this retreat, there is not a month to make a friendship. You make it in a minute, and it's really quite cool, because these people have no idea who, what your life is back at home, and so you can kind of explore the things that you desire, the things you want, the things that you're worried about, in a way that is in a different vacuum, half a day away from everything else. Lesley Logan 10:08  You can notice what you miss, what you don't miss. You can notice what you don't actually worry about, and what you are and it really helps you have some perspective. But most importantly, you get these deep friendships that just this shared experience, that even a year, five years from now, you'll think back to this trip and that person, that conversation, and how integral it was into you becoming more of the person you want to be. I think it's really hard to dream up what your future should be in the current chaos of your life. I think it's just really hard. Because even if you are able to, like, close your eyes and tune out all the noise, the moment you're done with the meditation, there's a knock on the door, an extra bill came that you weren't expecting, or someone texts you out of the blue and needs something. And so it can be really hard to, like, stay in that juiciness, right, to stay in that space, to really pull it together, to pull the whole dream together, pull a vision together, to, like, really explore what you don't want without any outside influence. And so yes, we're there and we're outside, and there's gonna be influence, but that influence is going to be, oh my God, over a thousand years ago, a bunch of people built these temples without machines, right? They did a bamboo and elephants, and someone put this from idea into reality, and there was a whole world here thriving away from the ocean a thousands years ago, because they were able to figure out how to get the water to run the wrong direction so that they could live. Talk about moving actual mountains to create a society that thrives and survives. Lesley Logan 11:48  And so to me, what is so cool about prioritizing your Pilates practice, or even starting a Pilates practice and being around other people and having the most incredible experience, an exposure to something so different. In Cambodia, they have a very savory breakfast, okay, and it's very filling, because a lot of them work outside, and most of us probably barely sit down and enjoy our breakfast. But there, we like sit down, enjoy it. We get to explore it. We have it outside. There's all these different things we do, and having that such a different cultural experience keeps you from doubting or putting up obstacles to making your dreams a reality, which is why so many of our retreaters have come back again and have made changes within a week, 30 days, six months of their life, and are having their dream become a reality, and more importantly, they're in community, because it's, like I was saying, was so hard to build friendships. You build them in seconds because you all are there because you wanted a week away. So you have that thing common. You're all there because you're like, I wanted to see this. I wanted to go on this experience. And so it really brings barriers down and allows you to have really deep, wonderful aha conversations, and yeah, you'll go shopping or go for a walk with someone you literally met yesterday. And it's just, it's just magical. So I'm really obsessed with this retreat. I really love exposing people to a culture that's so different than theirs. I really love people seeing how uncomfortable they can be. Not that the retreat is uncomfortable at all, but meaning like, yes, you can do that long flight. Yes, you can get to a foreign country on your own. Yes, you can be among strangers and make friends. Yes, you can do Pilates five times in one week. Yes, you can visualize what you want. Yes, you can try a food that you've never heard of and like it. Yes, you can, right? And what that brings in your confidence that you take home with you. Most people get home and they're like, take me back. How do I go back to where that was? Because there's just something so present in your body when you're there. That's how I can describe it. You just get so present, get out of all the chaos, and you get to just be yourself among some really cool people. Lesley Logan 14:04  So I want you to come. I want you to come this year. I want you to come with us. I want you to stay at my house. Want you to move with me. I want to hear what you dream of, and I want to celebrate that, and I want to help you find the first next step for that. And I want to build a community with you that puts in, build in cheerleaders and accountability buddies to remind you, oh my God, remember this? I want to give you memories that last a lifetime. Lesley Logan 14:28  So go to crowsnestretreats.com so that you can be it till you see it on this and I think the Be It Action, I would just be like, what if you could do this trip? What if you could go on a trip? What if you were someone who could go on this trip? What would that look like? Who would you have to be? What help do you need? Just, do you need a travel agent to help you book the flight? Okay, let's do that. Don't let that technology stop you. Don't let the crazy trip stop you. Do you need someone to watch your dog? I bet you there's someone who can just watch your house and your dog for you. There are, literally, those websites for that. What if you could make this trip happen instead of going, oh, next time, oh, I'm too busy this year. What about next time? What if you could make it happen? I think that's my Be It Action Item. Lesley Logan 15:08  And I will say, I pulled this for Brad, but I think it's really cool for this podcast, it says my creativity exists outside the paradigms I'm told to squeeze myself into. My creativity exists outside the paradigms I'm told to squeeze myself into. You are told all the time, busy, busy, busy. People are busy. Get stuff done. And you're also told a ton of stuff about why you can't take a week off for yourself. You must be on a trip you do with others. You can go on this alone. We've got others for you. Yes, you can. You can. And the way the retreat is set up, if you fly on a Friday night, depending on where you live, you will be there on Sunday morning at the latest, maybe Sunday afternoon. The retreat starts in the early evening, and we end on a Friday morning, so that you can fly out on a Friday and be home probably on a Friday. Solike a week, a week of work. Come on, what are you waiting for? Lesley Logan 15:57  All right, loves. I hope that it was fun to go on a little adventure with me, letting me share why do this retreat? Why I want you on it? What you're going to do with me on it. Thursday, Brad is going to talk about all the other goodness, his favorite parts, and I think it's really fun to hear why he loves it so much. And then you get to experience both of us on a retreat together. And the joy and the adventure is just, well, it's a good kind of contagion. All right loves, until next time, Be It Till You See It. Lesley Logan 16:24  That's all I got for this episode of the Be It Till You See It Podcast.

The fact that people have to tell us sometimes you think you're hungry when you just need a drink of water, the fact we have to be told this because we have become so disconnected from our heads to our bodies about when we are actually hungry, or if you're hungry, your body is saying hi, I don't have enough fuel to do the thing you asked me to do. So I really just thought it was really cool. 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. 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  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 intentional convo I have with Sabrina Magnan in our last episode. If you haven't yet listened to that episode, go listen to it and then listen to this one, or stick around and then go listen to that one, because that's just like how podcast apps can work. You guys, today is April 24th 2025 it's World Immunization Week. I feel a pedestal from Brad coming in. World world of music. You guys, we're using our platform how we can. Brad Crowell 1:41  Maybe.Lesley Logan 1:43  World Immunization Week is an annual event observed in the last week of April. Aims to educate the public about why vaccines are necessary for the health of millions of people around the world. For numerous reasons, children and adults miss out on essential vaccines, which increases the risk of contracting various preventable diseases such as polio, measles and smallpox. The purpose of this week is to identify challenges and gain access to vaccines and overcome those barriers for the benefit the global populations. People now realize that unless everyone is safe from disease, no one is truly immune. Well, you guys were really fucking this up. So obviously, if you listen to this, you probably have done all your children's and your MMRs, but please check in if you are eligible for the boosters for measles, because depending on when you got your shots, you might have only gotten one shot, so you may actually need to do additional one depending on how around people you are, because this is like a huge thing. When I was in L.A., there was like a freaking whooping cough outbreak amongst the private school, and my client had been in my studio three times after her kid had whooping cough. Didn't seem to think to tell me, and I was like, you're exposing me to whooping cough. So there's just different things we have to be aware of. Also, if you are of a certain age, you might have to get your shingles vaccine. You don't want to actually get shingles. I promise you, there's like nerve damage that happens. It's very painful. So please educate yourself. If you come at me because you think it's causing things that have scientifically been disproven multiple times, I will not respond to you. I don't need to, but I do think you should go and educate yourself and make decisions that are right for you and those around you. Brad Crowell 3:20  Yeah, in Texas, we have a measles outbreak right now in the United States. There's a whole lot of people trying to figure that out. And the reality is, the people who are getting measles never got vaccine. They never got the vaccine, but because of it now it's one of the most contagious diseases ever, and because of it now it's putting people who may have gotten it 40, 50 years ago at risk because it, meaning the vaccine, 40, 50 years ago, at risk because science has changed over time. Things have changed and shifted and grown. I was listening to a podcast where they interviewed a woman who's, I can't remember, but she was a doctor at the NIH, and she was basically saying that what they found is that before 1968 they recommended to go get a measles booster. From 1968 to 1989 where we were born, Lesley and I were born, it was medicine generally said go get one dose of the vaccine, but you are, now they're saying you should have at least two. So I contacted my mom. Somehow I actually had two doses of the vaccine, right? But, otherwise.Lesley Logan 3:20  Typically, you would have gotten the one at, one as a kid and then one, you're. Brad Crowell 4:01  In the 90s, like 10 years later.Lesley Logan 4:08  Yes and then you would have gotten one when you went to school. That's how it went. Brad Crowell 4:21  That's what it was. So I got one when I was born, and then I got one before I went to elementary school.Lesley Logan 4:35  Yes, so go get your tetanus. When? If you don't remember, it's probably (inaudible). Brad Crowell 4:39  Go get a tetanus shot. You don't want to deal with that.Lesley Logan 4:42  No, they're preventable, you know. Brad Crowell 4:44  And honestly, all the way down to just the flu shot. Lesley Logan 4:47  Well, you know, here's the thing, here's, here's, if you're like, I'm against all these things. So Brad's brother and sister in law, so they had a third baby, and the third baby was born premature, and we were the only ones in the family who got to go see this little cutie pie because we had a flu shot. Like, it's not about you, it's about like premature babies and little kids and people with immune suppressed issues, that's why you get it, because you might survive it, but the person next to you who's dealing with childhood cancer won't. So think about other people. Brad Crowell 5:21  Yep, that's all. Lesley Logan 5:23  Sorry. Well, I guess I joined on the soapbox. Okay, I'm back from Pilates Anytime filming. We had so much fun. Those classes will come out in the fall. If you're not a Pilates Anytime, member, you can use L Logan for a 30-day trial. I have a ton of classes on there. You can just search out all of mine. They're really, really fun. And we have announced and space is filling up like crazy, because it's a very limited amount of people who can join us on the Mullet Tour in the U.K. So yes, we are coming to Leeds and Essex in September, and we are doing a Mullet Tour, which means business in the front, Pilates in the back. So business workshops in the morning, Pilates classes and workshops in the afternoon. It's gonna be a lot of fun. Brad Crowell 6:04  It's gonna be a blast. So go to opc.me/uk to get more information. We're past the waitlist at this point. Go find out the deets, opc.me/uk, and then at the end of the month, we're getting really close here, this is the 24th today, so. Lesley Logan 6:18  Three days, so you're just gonna go to. Brad Crowell 6:21  opc.me/events, opc.me/events Come join us for spring training.

Otherwise, you come get the equipment ticket.Lesley Logan 6:35  It's really inexpensive and they're 30-minute classes with a 30-minute Q&A. So it's not just workouts. It's like, actually hangout sessions. Brad Crowell 6:43  Yeah, community, great questions.Lesley Logan 6:44  Asking the questions, where you actually (inaudible) with. All the OPC teachers and myself, I'm teaching like four of the classes, I think. It's just going to be a ton of fun. And we have team uniforms, guys, like baseball jerseys. We are ready to go. The dog has a uniform. He's a home rough. He's a bat boy, bat dog. He's all the things. Brad got a jersey. It's, yes, it's pink. It looks so cute. Brad Crowell 6:45  It's very pink. Lesley Logan 6:47  So go to opc.me/events to snag your spot before we kick off. There are replays on the classes who can't join live and what else, Brad?Brad Crowell 7:18  Yeah, so come join me for a free webinar. If you are taking clients, taking payments from clients, we want to help you. Want to support you. We want to share with you what we've learned over the last seven years of coaching people, over the last 10 years of doing it ourselves, we've literally had to be in the trenches doing the same exact things you're doing to grow your business, to meet new clients. How do I introduce myself? What am I supposed to say? I get tongue-tied. It's awkward. I feel like a salesperson. All these kinds of things. We were in the same exact position that you were in now. And because we realized that we had to get better at it, was we went out and we learned. We started studying with coaches for, I don't know, six years in a row, we hired coaches to help us with sales, copy, email writing. How do we, you know, say things, what should our website be, do, have? How do we become more known in our community? And we started Agency to share these things with you, right? And then, what that's allowed us to do is to then be alongside more than 2500 businesses just like yours over the past seven years, helping everyone solve these problems, and we can work with you to solve the same things. How do I get new clients? How do I actually fire a client that I hate? I need to fire the teacher for me. I really need help with my admin, all these kinds of things, insurance, etc, etc, etc. Anyway, free webinar. I want you to come join me for it. It's called the growth accelerator. Go to prfit.biz/accelerator. That's profit without the O dot biz slash accelerator. And then finally. Lesley Logan 7:27  We're going to Cambodia. We want you to come with us. Why haven't you signed up? This is your reminder. Go to crowsnestretreats.com and snag your spot. And let's go. Let's go to Siem Reap. I think it's like another thing I've been thinking about. You might be going why are we going to Cambodia? So if you've heard the town Siem Reap. Brad Crowell 9:05  Siem Reap. Lesley Logan 9:05  Siem Reap, that's where all the temples are.Brad Crowell 9:07  The Temples of Angkor. Angkor, A-N-G-K-O-R. Angkor was the, one of the largest civilizations, landmass wise, it was actually they controlled what we now consider Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia and all the way up through parts of Thailand. They would go to war with the Thai. They would go to war with India. They would go to war with all these, these places, right? It was a massive, massive civilization, and they built over 1000 major structures, and they're mostly temples. And then they were eaten by the jungle, and a thousand years later, they were, quote-unquote, rediscovered. And they are stunning, y'all, it's mind-blowingly cool.Lesley Logan 9:46  And if you go on some random cruise, they're gonna take you to three and we're gonna take you to way more than three, and we're gonna do Pilates, we're gonna do a Lotus Farm, and we're gonna go to a water village, and you're just going to learn so much and be so awed, like one in wonderment. Yeah, you'll be in wonderment, and it's gonna help you.Brad Crowell 10:04  You'll just be so odd, it's just gonna be so weird. Lesley Logan 10:06  Yeah, you mean awed. Anyways, come, crowsnestretreats.com.Brad Crowell 10:11  Yeah, if you want to stay an extra day or two, we love to go to a waterfall. We love to go see elephants.Lesley Logan 10:16  The waterfall and the elephants are on the extra day. Brad Crowell 10:18  Yeah, those are extra afterwards, because they're longer day trips and we can't fit them into the full retreat so.Lesley Logan 10:23  They're like full on days. Brad Crowell 10:24  Yeah, so come hang, it's gonna be mind-blowing. Go to crowsnestretreats.com, crowsnestretreats.com. But before we go any further, we did have an audience question this week. EliyaManson-p4k on YouTube says, "Fasting changed my life. It's my superpower! I've noticed that when I fast, the more I move, the better I feel. Plus, my motivation to get up and be active is higher. Does anyone else have a similar effect, or is it different in some way?" It's a very interesting comment.Lesley Logan 10:53  Yeah. So this is on a video we did a live with Noor from Jade Pilates Studio, about, about Ramadan, and so it was like, can you do Pilates during Ramadan? And it was such a really, was a really cool conversation. I've had nothing but great compliments and comments of people being so excited to learn about this. So thank you, Noor. I'm not a fasting expert, expert, and also the way they fast for Ramadan is very different than a fasting program. So Mindy Pelz, P-E-L-Z. Mindy Pelz, if any of you know her email, please help a sister out. Mindy Pelz, she wrote the book Fast Like A Girl, and it is super, super informative about how women specifically can and should fast based on their cycle. So that to Eliya, of course, you're feeling that, especially if you're fasting in the way that benefits your hormone cycle. She has tons and tons and tons and tons of research about fasting, what it can do for us. It's actually incredibly healing. So it doesn't surprise me that you're getting faster at things, you're moving better. Brad Crowell 10:55  But you've also been practicing fasting. Lesley Logan 10:59  Yeah. I mean, I'm gonna, I've kind of stopped. It's Cambodia, it's really hard. Tour was actually not the problem. Tour is easy. Cambodia is hard because you kind of go to bed early, and you wake up early, and then we eat on the schedule. So it's really hard for me to fast when the schedule of the group is different than what mine is. Brad Crowell 12:21  That's fair. Lesley Logan 12:22  But now that we're back, I'm getting back into it. And so by the time you're hearing this, yes, I'm back to fasting. So what I do is, if you look at how she sets it up, where I am in my cycle, Mindy Pelz, depending on where you are in your cycle, if you have one, you don't want to fast too long during a progesterone season, it will stress you out. So 13 hours, 14 hours is kind of the max on those days. But then there's other days of your cycle where you, like, 15 to 17 or 18 hours is really effective and like repair and helping. If you have any pre-diabetic stuff, there's this really great stuff. I don't want to take away her science. Go read her book. It's so good. You can listen to an Audible. It's really great. So I hope that helps Eliya and gives you more information to like even take what you're doing up another level.Brad Crowell 13:09  Love it. Well, stick around. We'll be right back, because we're going to dig into a really interesting conversation about our relationship with food with Sabrina Magnan as soon as we are back. Brad Crowell 13:21  All right, let's talk about Sabrina Magnon. Sabrina is an intuitive eating and food freedom coach who helps women break free from disordered eating, binge eating and food obsession. After struggling with her own body image and restrictive eating, she discovered the power of self-awareness and mindset shifts. Now she's on a mission to help others let go of food rules and build a healthy relationship with their own bodies. And she shared a lot about her story. I think my favorite part of her story is that her life-altering epiphany moment happened due to travel. And I love that. I think it's great.Lesley Logan 13:58  Yeah, that's why we love travel. I think travel teaches you so much about yourself and and really forces you to get a little bit more flexible around things. Brad Crowell 14:07  So if you listen to the episode, her story is that she went to Italy in her teens. And in her teens is when she was literally going down the path of eating disorders, because she had been a really competitive athlete and then stopped, and when she stopped, she was terrified that she was going to put on weight as a teenager, and she went to Italy. And she said, in Italy, nobody went to the gym for incessantly, no one was freaking out counting calories. Lesley Logan 14:34  Remember in 2020, when they were trying to get everyone to stay home. And the Italian, like the Italian leaders, were like, why is everyone so like now training for a marathon? What is going on? There are these running grannies? What are you doing? Because it's like not a thing.Brad Crowell 14:47  What was like the mind-blowing shift for her was seeing another culture and how they approach food, how they treated it, and how they enjoyed food, where she never enjoyed her food, she was like so intense about it all the time, and that changed her world. So I love that. I think it's amazing.Lesley Logan 15:09  Well, I think even, like in Cambodia, my dad gets so mad because they're like, constantly feeding him, and he's like, they're just bringing more food. They just brought more food. I just ate. I just ate. And he would always lose 10 pounds. The reason is, is yes, it's more outdoor lifestyle. So you're like, you move around a bit more, but when you eat there, you're not on your phone, and the portions are not huge. Of course, you can have seconds or thirds if you want to, but you are enjoying the taste. The food is very flavorful. There's also all these different things that you're going to dip in, and you use your hands. And so I think that's what makes it interesting when you're here in the States or other Western cultures, where the media has made women think that the smaller you are, be obsessed with being smaller, because then you're too busy trying to be smaller to realize we're taking your rights away, like that kind of thing, that's very much what it is, or enjoying your food. And so that leads into what I loved is that she said, we're born knowing how to eat intuitively. Brad Crowell 15:23  Right. Lesley Logan 15:23  And we lose this over time. So when you're a little kid, you're like, eating, and then you're like, done. And they're like, no, come finish your food. And actually the kid is full, they like, I'm done here, you know? And so what happens is the diet culture and the way things are going, it changes our ability to listen to our body and understand when am I hungry? The fact that people have to tell us sometimes you think you're hungry when you just need a drink of water. The fact we have to be told this because we have become so disconnected from our heads to our bodies about when we are actually hungry. And so I really enjoyed that she has taken on so much research and learning understanding about trusting our bodies so we're not restricting, we're not calorie-counting, we're not ignoring hunger. If you're hungry, your body is saying, hi, I don't have enough.Brad Crowell 16:44  Fuel.Lesley Logan 16:44  To do the thing you asked me to do. So I really just thought it was really cool and so true. Intuitive eating means blending what your body is telling you along with your emotions and your rational thought.Brad Crowell 16:54  Yeah. I mean, it was really interesting to listen to how her story shaped where she is today. She also shared that you have to be intentional about the life that you want, otherwise you end up repeating the same patterns. And this is definitely something that we've talked about on the pod before. Lesley usually talks about it when it comes to dating, have you to learn from the person you dated. You end up dating the same person over and over and over again until you learn the thing that you're supposed to learn before you can move on to the next person, right? So in line with that, she said, and instead of, hey, just letting life happen to me, I started getting intentional about, okay, what do I actually want to create with my life now that I've had this change in my perspective? She said, most of our thoughts are on repeat. I don't really understand the science, but the two of you had a really funny back and forth about like, how do we know that 80% of our thoughts are the same today as yesterday? How do we know that we have 60,000 thoughts a day? I don't know how to actually measure that.Lesley Logan 17:47  Oh, they already did that, did that, did that, did that, did that, did that. What does a person watch? I don't understand. But anyways. Brad Crowell 17:56  And unfortunately, most of these thoughts are negative, right? Self-deprecation. And it's easy to get stuck in that negativity cycle. She asked herself, hey, if I could create the life that I want, if it had a blank slate, if the rules didn't apply, and I could just, like, start over and be there, what would my life look like? What would it be for me? Right? And she said, this is when she started to journal. She started to pull things to like, write things down. And she said, hey, every day, this is the kind of stuff where you're starting to notice, I want my life to be like this. Add that to the list, right? And then it'll help you see what you actually want to be doing, where you actually want to be going. And she said, living into that vision helped her see small, tangible changes begin to take shape in her life, so that she could be eventually where she wants to be going. And, you know, I love that. I think this is like just another way of saying, you know, the small, tiny habits, small steps forward are going to help you get there. And also, I've heard this 100 times, but what would the decision be if I wanted to be, you know, a successful business owner, laundromat, if I wanted to be a successful laundromat owner and I had a decision to make, what would a successful laundromat owner's decision be? I should make that decision, right? So you're putting yourself in the place that you want to be before you then make the decision, because you're going to look at it through a different lens than you might, your gut might actually say, and so you, this is really helpful. It's a great way to kind of see life through a different perspective.Lesley Logan 19:27  I mean, I just think, first of all, she was super, super sweet. And I also remember she's like, being it until she sees it to be a puppy owner. So I really hope she and her partner, by this time, have gotten a dog. No pressure. Brad Crowell 19:37  Yeah, no pressure. Lesley Logan 19:38  But I think you're ready.Brad Crowell 19:41  No pressure, Sabrina. All right. Well, hey, stick around. We'll be right back. We're going to dig it into some action items the Be It Action Items that she shared, you're not going to want to miss it. Be right back. Brad Crowell 19:52  Welcome back. All right. Let's dig into those Be It Action Items that we got from Sabrina Magnan. What bold, what executable, what intrinsic and what targeted action items can we take away from your convo with Sabrina? She started talking about manifesting, right? And we were just kind of talking about parts of this, like future-casting, how we make decisions as the person that we will want to be one day. This is also the be it till you see it, you know, stuff. She said, hey, you've got to be really clear on what it is that you want. You need to define your goal, right? So whether that's a career milestone, a lifestyle change, or even a pet, that's what she's going after. She said, you have to embody the mindset and actions of the person who's achieved it. She believes that a lot of people think once they hit that goal, then I will feel this thing, but that is so backwards. And I laughed when she said, it's not like your brain changes when you achieve the thing, right? Your brain is going to be the same brain now as it is when you achieve the thing, unless you're intentionally trying to change your brain now. Lesley Logan 20:53  And also, if you haven't really set yourself up, like, if you're someone who has, like, a fear of making decisions, and then you somehow get someone to believe in your laundromat business, and they're like, here are the keys to your laundromat business, but you didn't ready yourself as a person who makes decisions, good fucking luck keeping your laundromat business, because you have to have done that. So you got to change the brain to be ready for the thing you want to have when it comes. Brad Crowell 21:16  You have to be ready to make decisions now before you get those keys right? Instead of waiting for the success to change, you become the version of yourself who attracts it today. Ask yourself, what does this person who already has achieved this thing do every day, and then make space for it now. Start taking those actions and make yourself ready to receive those wins now, you know. What about you? Lesley Logan 21:39  This is really cool, because this is where, if you're like, okay, guys, we've heard that one before. I think you have to hear things multiple times before you make a decision on making a change, right? Brad Crowell 21:47  Like 17? Lesley Logan 21:47  Like, at least. So this one is really unique. We have not heard this one before, which is, take a piece of paper and do two columns. So a left side, you put the old me, and on the right side, you're gonna put the future me. And on the old me, this is where you can list up the thoughts and habits and emotions you want to leave behind. So all that negative self-talk, I'm a failure, I'm not good enough. And then on the right side, all the things that you want to have in the future, the future you like, how you think and emotions you have. And then you could have this ability to interrupt the pattern, because now you get to act like, oh, these are all the things that I want to embody. So this is what I need to be acting as if, participating, going back to her other Be It Action Items. So I really love this, because one of my clients, shout out to Meredith, I said, hey, babe, we were supposed to, she only has a session on Tuesdays, and we're driving back from Colorado, and I was supposed to text her when we're getting back so I could teach her. And we got back a little later than we expected. And so I, like, was like, hey, I, the only time I have this week is 8 a.m. tomorrow, which Meredith doesn't, is not a morning person. And she goes, great, I'll see you then. And I was like, okay, so I saw her a.m., she was on time. She was ready to go. And I said, wow, this is really early for you. She's like, well, I am a healthy person. I'm a person who makes healthy decisions, and a healthy person would work out at 8am so this is why we're here. But I really liked it. It's like she did the old her would never have said yes to that. Brad Crowell 23:14  Never. Lesley Logan 23:15  The old her is doing the 9:15 and that's early. And the new her is like, nope, nope. I'm gonna do it 8 a.m. I'm up. I'm gonna work out. I'm gonna do it. So I just think that this is a really cool thing. Two sides paper really helps you on that goal setting and getting clear on what you want and who you want to be. Sabrina, I can't wait to hear what your dog's name is. Just putting that out there. Lesley Logan 23:34  Y'all, how are you going to use these tips in your life? What was your favorite part or your takeaways?

Angkor Resources (TSXV: ANK | OTCQB: ANKOF) has signed a 30-year production sharing agreement with the Cambodian government, marking the country's first onshore oil and gas project. With Cambodia entirely reliant on imports, this deal is a major step toward energy independence.In this interview, CEO Delayne Weeks discusses the details of the deal, adding that an environmental impact assessment has already begun at the Block VIII onshore project. The company is focused on accelerating the exploration timeline, potentially cutting the standard six- to seven-year exploration phase to three years.Learn more about Angkor Resources and its assets: https://angkorresources.ca/Watch the full YouTube interview here: https://youtu.be/2bub9786-REAnd follow us to stay updated: https://www.youtube.com/@GlobalOneMedia?sub_confirmation=1

Un equipo de arqueólogos investiga uno de los mayores tesoros jamás descubiertos. Su misión los lleva a templos antiguos en las profundidades de las selvas del sudeste asiático, mientras que la exploración aérea señala nuevos sitios para excavar. Se hacen asombrosos descubrimientos a medida que el equipo analiza el tesoro y arroja luz sobre los orígenes de la civilización que construyó la ciudad perdida de Angkor.

Surrounded on every side by peaceful waters, Ankor Wat rises from the jungle as the crown jewel of the ancient Khmer capital city of Angkor. Sitting on 402 acres of land, it is considered the largest religious structure in the world by Guinness World Records. Angkor Wat is a unique combination of the temple mountain and the later plan of concentric galleries. The construction of Angkor Wat suggests that there was a celestial significance with certain features of the temple. This is observed in the temple's east–west orientation, and lines of sight from terraces within the temple that show specific towers to be at the precise location of the solstice at sunrise. The temple's main tower aligns with the morning sun of the spring equinox. The temple is a representation of Mount Meru, the home of the gods according to Hindu mythology: the central quincunx of towers symbolise the five peaks of the mountain, and the walls and moat symbolize the surrounding mountain ranges and ocean. The mainstream history narrative tells us that Ankor Wat was originally constructed circa 1150 AD by the Khmer king Suryavarman II who ruled 1113-1150 AD) in the early 12th century. But is there more to Ankor Wat than we've been led to believe? In this episode I sit down with researcher and explorer Cassie Martin who just returned from an expedition in Cambodia exploring Ankor Wat and the many temples of Cambodia. Using Power Point presentation, Cassie will guide us through many examples of out-of-place-artifacts, LIDAR scan and architectural styles that seem to point to an older history at Ankor Wat and the surrounding temples...

Das untergegangene Angkor war eine Stadt der Superlative. Ihr Gebiet war so groß wie Berlin heute. Bis zu eine Million Menschen sollen dort gewohnt haben. Sie haben ihren Herrschern Tempel erbaut, über hundert davon sind noch heute begehbar, viele sind noch versteckt im Dschungel von Kambodscha. Der wohl berühmteste Tempel ist der Angkor Wat, größer als der Petersdom in Rom. Von Johannes Marchl (BR 2020)

El Dorado, más que un lugar, encarna la obsesión humana por la riqueza y el poder. Originado en rituales muiscas donde un líder cubierto de oro ofrecía tesoros al lago Guatavita, este mito inspiró expediciones que atravesaban selvas y ríos. Exploradores como Walter Raleigh dedicaron años a buscarlo, convencidos de su existencia en el Amazonas. Sin embargo, El Dorado nunca fue hallado, dejando un legado de exploración y de misterio que continúa fascinando a historiadores hasta nuestros días. Y descubre otras civilizaciones perdidas en la nueva serie ‘Tesoros Perdidos de Angkor: el antiguo Laos al descubierto'. ¿A quién pertenecía este tesoro? ¿Fue robado?

Le Vishnou du Mébon occidental, l'un des plus grands bronzes jamais retrouvés à Angkor en 1936, fait partie des collections du musée national du Cambodge. Cette statue du XIe siècle, de plus de 5 m à l'origine, représente le dieu hindou Vishnou, allongé sur l'océan de l'éternité. Arrivée en France en mai 2024 pour des études techniques et en novembre à Nantes au laboratoire Arc'antique en vue de sa restauration, cette pièce unique sera ensuite présentée au musée Guimet, à Paris, du 30 avril au 8 septembre. Il est posé sur un chariot dans une salle du laboratoire Arc'antique, à Nantes, dans l'ouest de la France. Le grand Vishnou en impose par sa douceur. On le dirait sur un lit d'hôpital. Seul est exposé la partie supérieure de la statue, comprenant la tête, les deux bras droits et le haut du torse. Le tout dépassant tout de même les 2,20 m de long. À son chevet, Stéphane Lemoine paraît bien petit, tant ce bronze est monumental. Ce spécialiste des métaux participe à la restauration. Il faut d'abord nettoyer. Du ruban adhésif blanc délimite les petites zones carrées sur lesquelles il faut intervenir.« On voit déjà qu'il y a un état d'encroûtement localisé sur les surfaces corrodées, qui retiennent donc du sédiment d'enfouissement et qui nuisent à la lisibilité globale des modelés de l'œuvre. On peut choisir de retirer plus ou moins ces encroûtements, notamment par des moyens mécaniques, afin de tenter de retrouver la surface qu'avait l'objet au moment de son abandon, au milieu du 15e siècle. Il faut imaginer qu'à l'époque, l'intégralité de la surface du Vishnou était dorée. Aujourd'hui, il est vert, parce que la fine dorure – qui était une dorure appliquée avec du mercure – a disparu très rapidement durant l'enfouissement. Il en reste des parcelles, mais il faut imaginer que cette statue, aujourd'hui verte, était à l'époque intégralement dorée », explique le restaurateur.Entièrement doré donc, le Vishnou flamboyait. Mais ce n'était pas tout, il y avait de la polychromie sur les sourcils, les yeux, la moustache, les lèvres étaient rouges. Trésors du musée national du Cambodge à Phnom Penh, chef-d'œuvre inégalé de l'art khmer, ce Vishnou couché datant du 11e siècle captive Yannick Lintz, présidente du musée Guimet, à Paris, qui a fait le déplacement.« Vishnou, en tant que personnalité, était évidemment une des grandes divinités du panthéon religieux du Cambodge et de toute l'Asie du Sud-Est, c'est-à-dire spirituellement et religieusement une divinité d'une très grande importance. Et puis, comme c'est le cas dans notre histoire de l'art, les grandes œuvres religieuses sont aussi de grandes œuvres d'art. Ce grand bronze monumental de ce Vishnou couché, qui résidait au milieu du temple que l'on appelle le temple du Mébon, à Angkor, c'est aussi symbolique que la Joconde du Louvre », s'enthousiasme-t-elle.On quitte à regret ce Vishnou souriant et la sérénité qu'il dégage. Mais on pourra le retrouver lors d'une exposition exceptionnelle sur les bronzes khmers, qui se tiendra au musée Guimet en avril prochain.À lire aussiLe Metropolitan Museum of Art de New York restitue 14 sculptures khmères au Cambodge

In 1580, a Portuguese Capuchin friar, Antonio da Madalena, departed the renowned Alcobaça Monastery in central Portugal, embarking on an adventure that led him to Goa, India, where he established a library for his order. By 1586, after years of exploring Southeast Asia's dense jungles, cultures, and religions, he stumbled upon the sprawling ruins of Angkor—a magnificent ancient metropolis of stone featuring moated cities, palaces, and the iconic Angkor Wat, the world's largest religious monument. The complex, built without mortar or machines, left Madalena pondering its origins: Alexander the Great, the lost tribes of Israel, or the local Khmer people. This awe-inspiring discovery invites us to explore the secrets of Angkor Wat and uncover an ancient message in stone that resonates even today.

I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. 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.Brad Crowell 0:52  Welcome back to the Be It Till You See It interview recap. Brad here again today with a very special guest stepping in for Lesley, we have Clare Solly. Yeah, welcome back, Clare. Clare is one of Lesley's best friends who has been both a guest on the pod, and she's actually hosted some of these recaps in the past. So those of you who have been listening for a long time, you probably know Clare. She's an author. She's an actor. She is Lesley's slingshot friend that goes all the way back to Episode 19. She lives in New York City, and she actually also you've been doing a whole lot of traveling this past year if I recall.Clare Solly 1:24  So much travel. Yeah, so much travel. I was so inspired. I think I've been to six countries this year, and then. Brad Crowell 1:30  That's crazy. Clare Solly 1:31  I'm actually in Connecticut right now I'm talking to you. Brad Crowell 1:33  Okay, okay. I was wondering. I was like this doesn't feel like New York. Love it. Today we are going to dig into the validating convo that Lesley had with Traci Peterson in our last episode. If you have not yet listened to that, feel free, pause this, go back, take a listen. Traci is a rock star, and she's like a super cool mom, a very inflective inflection. She's looking back at her own life, analyzing it, and seeing how she can sow into her daughter differently, and I just thought that was epic. So yeah, that's worth a listen. Go back and listen to that, and then come back here to join us. But before we get into the convo with Traci, why don't you tell us about today? Clare Solly 2:11  Today is January 16th and it is Natural, Natural? Brad Crowell 2:17  Yeah. Clare Solly 2:18  Natural and National Religious Freedom Day. National Religious Freedom Day is observed to promote the message of peace and acceptance. The day is to highlight the fact that everyone has a right to their own religious beliefs, and people can go worship however and whenever they want. And I thought this was actually very timely, because Traci talks about one of the first things she says, like right off the bat, is that you can celebrate whatever deity that supports you (inaudible) subscribes you and that's the word. Brad Crowell 2:48  I think it's also important to remind ourselves that, while there are, it's probably safe to say the majority of the United States, they subscribe to Christianity in some form. I don't think that we remember that our country wasn't founded by. Clare Solly 3:07  It was not. Brad Crowell 3:08  By a bunch of Christians like the Pilgrims came over. They were definitely were trying to get away, and they were being persecuted, and they were Christian. The founding fathers, however, they had mix of religions, including Christianity, but also Quaker, Lutheran, Dutch Reformed and even Roman Catholic. And so when they were setting our country up, it was with this really important idea of religious freedom, and I think that's healthy for us to remind ourselves that different people believe different things, and that's okay. Clare Solly 3:39  Yeah. Well and you mentioned in New York City, there's 72 different nations represented in this city, in my city, and that's fascinating. I can walk two, three blocks. It's like I'm traveling in a different country, because there are different things going on. And speaking of travel, aren't you guys traveling soon? Brad Crowell 3:56  Yeah, that's right. We're actually going to be going to Cambodia here in just a few weeks, I'm so excited. I'm already getting everything ready. We've been making sure we've got the place situated. Our team is already prepping things. We're making sure that the grounds are good to go, and Lesley and I get there a few days early. So end of February, we've got a retreat at our retreat space in Cambodia, and it might feel like. Clare Solly 4:19  Wish I could go.Brad Crowell 4:20  Well, you can, you still you can. You can. Hey and you, too, can join us. Yeah, believe it or not, you know, I know it's short notice, but there's still time if you're interested, to join us here in February. However, if that is like, clearly too soon, because it's all the way around the world and flying internationally can be challenging, join us in October. Okay? We're going to go back in October. It's going to be the middle of the month right now. There's an offer going on that you would never know about unless you were on the waitlist. So if you're not on the waitlist, just go to crowsnestretreats.com crowsnestretreats.com. Click on the October you'll see all the dates. You'll see everything that's going on there.

You've heard me talk about it for years on this podcast, and every single time I go, I still come back rejuvenated, just on fire to promote how epic it is over there, the people are beautiful. The food is incredible. The countryside is amazing. The temples of Angkor are, you know, it just makes me feel like a kid again every single time. It's amazing. The wonder, it's just insane. Well, we're still working hard on these accessories flash cards, right? So if y'all are familiar with the flash card decks that we put out for Pilates, to learn Pilates, the sixth one in the series is coming out. It's the accessories deck. It'll be coming out this summer. Back in November, we shot the, did all the photos back in LA and Lesley's been working super hard on the cards. In fact, she's really excited for us to be in Cambodia because we get to go a couple days early, and she literally is on the opposite side of the world from what our normal life. So no one interrupts her. She can take no phone calls, none of the things, and she always uses that time to sit down and just continue to really work on these cards. She's going to be writing and editing and doing all that kind of stuff. So if that's something that's interesting to you, go to opc.me/flashcardwaitlist flashcardwaitlist, and put yourself on the waitlist. We hook up the people on the waitlist. We don't ever announce publicly that we've got this epic presale offer that is going to happen, so only the people on the waitlist.

And if you are a fitness business owner or a Pilates studio owner or a home studio owner, or you're renting spaces studio, if you are working for yourself in some way, you want to come to this free webinar that I'm putting on. It's called the Pilates Studio Growth Accelerator. After coaching seven years, Lesley and I have been able to work with thousands of business owners just like you, and we boiled down three big secrets that are going to get you unstuck in your money. Clare Solly 6:56  Secrets?Brad Crowell 6:57  Yeah, secrets. In your money, unstuck in your client growth. How do you manage a team? How do you change your messaging? How do you connect with these clients that you need to do in order to grow your business? These are the things that we are talking about, and I want you to come join us. So go to prfit.biz/accelerator. That's profit without the O, dot biz slash accelerator. It's a free webinar. So before we get into this convo with Traci Peterson, we had an audience question to respond to. And if you were here last week, you can laugh again, because the audience is Lesley. And Lesley was literally asking Clare a question. So Claire, what are you reading next?Clare Solly 8:02  This is a hysterical question. I'm a bookstagrammer, so I'm a book influencer. You can (inaudible).Bookstagram. You know what I literally thought it was an entire platform called Bookstagram I was like, what? No, it's like a segment of Instagram.It's a corner of, yeah, it's a corner of Instagram. It's a corner of Tiktok. If you look up the hashtag (inaudible). Brad Crowell 8:24  Wait, it's TikTok? Clare Solly 8:24  Yeah, it's on TikTok too. We'll talk about books all the time. So I'm, you won't be Solly, you can. We'll probably put that somewhere if you want to find it, if you want to go see what books I'm reading. So I read all kinds of different fiction. My favorites are like romcoms and fantasy. I love anything with a dragon, although it's funny, when we get to the new year, I'm always like, okay, I want to get some gritty so I usually read, like, a good biography, or I read something more nonfiction-wise, I'm a tiny bit of a self help junkie, so every once in a while, I'm like, what's the new self-help book? Brene Brown, what do you got for me? Brad Crowell 8:56  Yeah, right? Clare Solly 8:57  But one of these trips that I went on this summer was with my mom, and we were driving, and we saw these old time like 40 year old, 50 year old truck stop places. You know, the movie (inaudible)Brad Crowell 9:08  Americana. Clare Solly 9:09  I'm totally Americana. So I'm sort of fascinated by all of this, and it's like percolating in the back of my brain to write something, whether it's a play or a book about these old time pull over by the side of the road and take a picture with the world's largest ball of twine. So I'm sort of.Brad Crowell 9:29  There's always these big ass chairs out there, like on the side of a freeway. Like, what are they doing?Clare Solly 9:34  Like, I went to Canada in May, and there was a giant moose statue, and of course, I had to take a picture with it. But like, why is there a giant moose just by the side of the road? Brad Crowell 9:44  That's funny. Clare Solly 9:45  I'm somewhat fascinated by these, like, old I don't know why I keep saying old timey, because they're not that old. But as a kid, we used to take roadtrips, and we would stop and like, the moccasin factory. So I'm doing some research, so to speak, on some of these old, older roadside attractions so (inaudible) maybe, maybe I think I'm envisioning more of a fictional story, like a generational grandpa made this thing, put his life fortune into it, and, like, run down and what do we do with it? You know, kind of. Brad Crowell 10:19  Oh, that, you know, what's really interesting, that's a really clever idea. Because then it could be like, the young generation who doesn't give a shit about it, and he's like, what do I do with this thing? But then it could be that the younger person comes to appreciate it, you know? Or they could be like, fuck it. I'm moving to the city. Clare Solly 10:38  Yeah. Well, I mean, and we're kind of all, like, we've kind of forgotten what this is. We've forgotten what these and some people don't even know what they are. Brad Crowell 10:46  Yeah, they don't even know what it is. They drive by without even understanding. That's interesting. You know, I think there's, like, a really a lot there of digging into this idea of nostalgia, yeah. That's a cool that could be a really cool premise, Clare.Clare Solly 11:03  Yeah, well, and then passing things down to generations, what have we experienced, or what have our parents or grandparents experienced that we can pass down through generations? So I think that that's important. Brad Crowell 11:14  That's cool, too, yeah, and the meaning, like how I had so much meaning to them, yeah. Well, very cool. I love that. I'm glad you shared that you are doing the Bookstagram, the book Tiktok, that one too, the book talk. Stick around, everybody. We'll be right back. We're going to dig into this amazing convo Lesley had with Traci Peterson. Alright, now let's talk about Traci Peterson. Traci is an international speaker, a board certified family nurse practitioner and founder of Elevate Wellness and Aesthetics. She is the creator of Women Lessons, a transformative program and podcast that empowers high-performing women and their daughters to overcome self-criticism, embrace their divine gifts and build unshakable confidence. She's a proud mother of three and Traci leads by example, inspiring others to break generational cycles of insecurity while living a purpose-driven life of faith, leadership and personal growth. It was a very refreshing convo. I really appreciated her mission. There was so much in there. What was one thing that you loved?  Clare Solly 12:15  One thing I said that she loved was to look inward and upward for your validation. She said, most of the time, we've had to learn things the hard way, and you're not finding your value or your worth from or your validation from any other person than yourself from your relationship with you and your Creator. I found that gorgeous, because yes, we are, especially women, we are in this moment where we are standing up for ourselves. We are finding our own identities, but we're looking outward for that, and we're still, we still are plagued with magazines and perfection being thrown at us, like from deodorant commercials to clothing ads to car ads, like, what should you drive if you're a Pilates instructor. What do you do if you're a performer and a writer? What do you need to wear? Who? What? How do you need to project yourself? So there's so many hows and whys, and really, at the end of the day, you have to live with yourself, and I am the only person that has to live with me, even if you are living with someone else, even if you are thriving with someone else. At the end of the day, you have to make yourself happy. There's nobody else. I mean, other people can add to your happiness, but they can't make you 100% happy. So I loved, loved that. Brad Crowell 13:33  Yeah, I think, you know, it kind of goes back to what we were talking about last week, about worthiness, validation, if we put that in the hands of the people around us, we're setting ourselves up for failure.Clare Solly 13:46  Yeah, you're giving yourself a measuring stick. You're giving other people power to have the measuring stick for your life. And you don't know which direction they're going to go, because you don't know what their goals are and your relationship with yourself is, the one that should be paramount should be the top. And I'm not saying ignore everyone else and only live your best life, but that's not the point of and it's not Traci's point either. But I think you have to be comfortable with yourself first. You know, it's kind of like that airplane mask saying, right? You have to put on your mask first and make sure you're okay, before you're any help to anyone else. And I know that's not quite what she was saying, but at the same time, it's still that that's valid. Brad Crowell 14:26  No, it's super relevant, you know. And I think also, too, she's talking about, you know, inward and upward instead of outward, instead of outward. So absolutely, I definitely agree. I was thinking about, how do you catch yourself in that moment of when you're when you're seeking validation from others, right? Clare Solly 14:47  Yeah, hard habit to break. Brad Crowell 14:50  Yeah, it really is, you know, because there's that sense of validation, I mean, I understand that. If we create a new product and no one buys it, that makes me feel like a failure. We fucked up. We clearly missed the mark. We didn't understand what people were looking for. I can understand that external, you know, looking external to we're talking about world views as well. If your worldview is, I am a salesperson, and you fail at selling like I was just talking about then. Clare Solly 15:21  Well, identity. Brad Crowell 15:22  Yeah, what do you do? What do you do with that? Does that mean life is over now? So when your foundation isn't built on those things, but instead is built internally, it's a lot more challenging to rock that kind of a person. And that's a good thing, that's a good thing. So, yeah, we'll, look, I really loved when she was talking about gifts. She said, listen, not everyone is going to understand your gifts or celebrate them. Those are not your people. And what she was talking about was this really heart wrenching story of her childhood where she was in her early teens, mid teens, and she walked up behind her friends, and her friends were basically talking shit on her, and she ended up going home, and she was telling her mom, and then her mom said something, probably not intentionally, but she said something that was really hurtful and that really rocked her. And she said what she had been told every day is, hey, remember who you are. And she's like, well, I'm loud. I am the person who is in control of the situation. I am all these things. And you know, in that sense, it's positive, but what she was getting the feedback from was that makes you bossy, and that makes you never paying attention, and that makes you this, that makes you this. So suddenly her strengths were being portrayed as weakness. And as a 14-year-old, how do you overcome that? You're going to change yourself so that you can fit in, so that you're no longer going to do those things, and that really shifts into people pleasing and all this other stuff, and that's really, really difficult. It was a sad story to hear. And she said her daughter came from home from school and said, hey, Mom, you know, I need to learn how to be a woman. And the things that her daughter said, well, I need to learn these things, that was like, the beginning of this mission that Traci is on, and that I felt was like so powerful that she had this moment of introspection. That was the word I was looking for at the beginning of the pod. Introspection, she had this moment of clarity, of like, oh, wow. Is this the example that I've set for my daughter, if these are the things that she thinks she needs?Clare Solly 17:22  And am I the model for that? I thought that was also very important. Yeah. Brad Crowell 17:26  Yeah, absolutely. And so I think it's so cool that she's come full circle now and she can say, hey, you know what the gifts that I was told are a problem when I was a teen? No, those are still gifts. But the people who are giving me that feedback, those are not my people.Clare Solly 17:44  Yeah, and I like, this story resonated so, so deeply with me, because I was like, wait, are we the same person? Because the same sort of situation happened with me. And again, it was, you know, a different topic, a different day. And I'm sure other people, other women, especially, have suffered. And I'm talking from because I'm a woman, and I've talked to many women who have been like, oh yeah, me too. So I can speak from that. And many of us, you know, we just get ripped to shreds. And I'm very tall. I'm six feet tall, and so I have always been the one that was automatically the leader and was put in charge of things. Brad Crowell 18:24  Sure. Clare Solly 18:24  And I learned to speak loud because I'm a big, tall person. And then I also grew up with two stepbrothers, so I had to be loud because there were two boys in my house. And I was known as bossy. And it's so funny, because once I heard that, I was like, when was the last time I heard bossy? And I kind of love now that we have this boss babe mentality, like we've turned it around, that word. Brad Crowell 18:49  Isn't that funny? Clare Solly 18:49  Yeah and what used to be such a negative word, and we're now embracing it. I loved, I loved this, which, you know, brings me back to the embracing your gifts. Yes, I am X-Y-Z and if you need like A-B-C in your life, then we're on the wrong side of the alphabet. I need a W and a Q and a T in there. Go be on your other side of the alphabet. And like we all are in this together, but I'm X-Y-Z, and this is what it is.Brad Crowell 19:14  That is something that we, especially as a child, have no perspective on. Our entire world is our class. Our entire world is our bus to and from school. Our entire world is our neighbors, because those are our friends that we play with. I have to imagine that shifted because of the internet, but still, even with the internet and the virtual it's generally still people that we know in real life that we're trying to connect with online. So as we shift change, grow older, we realize, oh, maybe I don't need to be in this community. Maybe this is my community over here. Or these are not my people. Those are my people. Or as business owners, we talk about this all the time to our clients who are building their own business. Maybe the people that we've been selling to are not the people we should be selling to because they're clearly not appreciating the thing, you know, but there are other people who will appreciate the thing. This is also another thing that I think is so important that fits right into this. When we lived in Los Angeles, there were something like 15, 18 Pilates studios within a two-mile radius, or three-mile radius. I can't remember what it was, Lesley and I looked it up at one point, and it was like kind of mind blowing. How was it possible that we all had clients? If we're all competing, we're all doing this the same thing. We're all teaching Pilates. Now, there's different forms of Pilates, but that's not my point. The point is from the person who doesn't know anything about Pilates they just see 18 Pilates studios, right? What sets you apart is you and how you're communicating and connecting with them. Do they vibe with you? Your vibe, them, you know, coming in the door and being like, I like this person. There's something innate there. There's something intuitive there, and that's really a thing that sets you apart. And that's why we're not for everybody, and that's why they might not be your people. You know those people who are critiquing your strengths instead of praising your strengths.Clare Solly 21:09  Yeah and I think it also goes both ways. If you are buying into something, or you're giving your time to something and you're just not connecting with it, let it go. Leave it for someone else. Leave the space for someone else. There are many other opportunities out there. We talked about books earlier, like, I have read the same genre of book. I say I read dragon books, and there are some dragon books that I just don't like, and there are dragon books that like blow me away, but there are other people that read them that just don't jive. So yeah, if you're not feeling it, if you're not feeling me, move on to something else. Your life is yours. Live it how you want to. Brad Crowell 21:45  I agree. I totally, totally agree. Stick around real quick, because when we get back, we're going to talk about those Be It Action Items that Traci and Lesley were talking about. So, we'll be right back. All right. So finally, let's talk about those Be It Action Items. What bold, executable, intrinsic or targeted action items can we take away from Lesley's convo with Traci Peterson? She said hey, use the energy generator guide, especially if you ever feel overwhelmed burnt out as a mom, this guide, the energy generator guide, it walks you through the step by step. One, write down your top three values. Two, how to get to those in a very succinct manner. The guide helps you do that, and then you start calendaring those values. Have a conversation with your family, your spouse, your child, about your set of values. She talked about instilling this concept into her daughter in a way that allows your daughter to reflect, hey, is this serving me, this thing that I'm signed up for? Is it fitting with my values? And it allows you to also measure the feedback I think that you're getting from people, and be like, do these people agree with my values? Because if they don't agree with my values, then maybe I shouldn't be listening to their feedback. And I just thought that was super powerful to be teaching, you know, someone who's 12. Yeah, she said, sometimes we know what we value, but there's conversations that sometimes need to happen, explaining why, the why behind why you're doing it, so that you can get other people on board. So when you know your values too, you can also use that as a leader, you know, as the person who's the biggest personality in the room, like she is, I just, that's a, that's an incredible life lesson for someone to be passing on to their kids. And also, I think, I don't have any kids, so this is something that, like, Lesley and I would have a conversation about this kind of a thing, you know, do we need to do this? Or why are we doing this? Why are we still doing this? If it's something that we've been repeating over and over and over again? So yeah, that's pretty potent. Clare Solly 23:49  Yeah, I love that she's focused on moms and daughters. Love it. Love it. Love it. I'm a daughter of a mom and don't have children, so for me, I dropped in instead of mom, I dropped in person, and instead of children, spouse, etc. I dropped in support system because I have many, many friends. Brad Crowell 24:05  I really thought you were gonna say my pet. And I was like, yes.Clare Solly 24:09  I mean, you should calendar in your pet.Brad Crowell 24:12  And you'll have like, a one-on-one. Like, is this serving our values? Clare Solly 24:15  Yeah. What are we, good dog, good job. But yeah. I mean, I think this system is good for anyone. So I, you know if, even if you're not a mom, you don't have a daughter, go take a look at this book, because I think it's very supportive. My biggest takeaway, and again, I love to, love, love this because I'm daughter of a mom, she created with seven woman lessons to look inward and upward for your validation and the lessons were, remember who you are and whose you are. And I loved that whose. I loved that. Gratitude grounds you. Your own, remember your own divine gift. Be selfmore, not selfless. I'm gonna say that again, be selfmore, not selfless. You are more than your body. Amen. Community counts and number seven was living your potential. All of these are brilliant. Again, I think you can even substitute in, not yes, these are great things to teach to a younger person. It's a good teachable moment for yourself. And like these seven guidelines, I feel like I took a lot of notes when I was listening to this one. I was listening out to it fast, and so I had to go back and listen because I was taking and I think it's just great ways to, like, focus yourself. And again, we're at the New Year. It's not too late to start your resolution, or if you have one, or if you don't, or even just looking forward to, like, where do you want to go? And these are steps and guidelines to move you forward or move you and your team, you and your people forward. So loved it.Brad Crowell 25:45  I have a lot of awe for people who take the time to reflect back on their years of life and pull out the like distill concepts like this. This all comes back to that conversation she had with her daughter about, like, Mom, I need to learn how to be a woman. And from that came an entire platform, you know, where she is now able to not only support her own daughter, but support other moms. And now she's hosting retreats and for mom and daughter retreats, and doing all this amazing stuff that came back to this one moment of absolute clarity. And then now she's got this system that she put together. And, you know, high level, these things sound like, oh, okay, that's great. Gratitude grounds, be selfmore not selfless. That's cute, actually. I like that one. But there's still so much thought that went behind each one. Why are these the seven, there's clearly a reason, and I think it's worth digging in. So I love that. All right. Well, everyone, well, I'm Brad Crowell. Clare Solly 26:48  And I'm Lesley Logan, just kidding. I'm Clare Solly.Brad Crowell 26:52  Thank you so much for joining us today.

Tourists are flooding to Cambodia's "8th wonder of the world," the ancient temple complex at Angkor. But the rapid expansion of the site comes at a terrible cost, as tens of thousands of people are ousted. The authorities call some "illegal squatters" and claim others volunteered to leave. But human rights groups say the evictions are forced, illegal and target families who've worked the land for generations. Many say they're now debt-ridden and struggling to survive. Jill McGivering travelled to Angkor to meet those at the heart of the crisis.

In Cambodian history most people have heard of the great Khmer empire of Angkor, and the radical communist regime of the Khmer Rouge. But who has heard of the famous story of the sweet cucumber farmer who became king of Cambodia in the fourteenth century?  In this original book, Epistemology of the Past: Texts, History, and Intellectuals of Cambodia, 1855–1970 (U Hawaii Press, 2024), Theara Thun traces the development of Cambodian historiography, from the royal chronicle tradition of premodern times to modern histories based on Western historical methods introduced by French colonial scholars in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Theara discusses the intellectuals – Khmer, French, and maybe surprisingly even Thai - who helped shaped modern Cambodian history writing. He shows that indigenous Cambodian historiographical traditions survive in the present in surprising forms. This is an important contribution to an emerging scholarship on Southeast Asian intellectual history. Learn more about your ad choices.

And then that was before I even knew anything about her, because she's very compelling and she knows what she's talking about. Lesley Logan 0:19  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 1:00  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 it and laugh through this entire intro. We are recapping the episode with Dr. Louise Swarstwalter on our last episode. If you haven't yet listened to that one, you should go back and listen to it. It's amazing. It's rehabilitating, some would say, and then come back and listen to this one. Brad Crowell 1:23  Do it. Take it. Lesley Logan 1:24  Today is.Brad Crowell 1:24  I think it's necessary, y'all. Lesley Logan 1:26  Oh, Brad was doing the whole thing in the car. He was listening to it as we were driving back from L.A. today. And he was like, tapping his belly and doing all those things, saying his numbers. Was really great. So if you have no idea we're saying, it's because you didn't listen to that episode. And you should go do that. Brad Crowell 1:38  It's true. Lesley Logan 1:39  So today is September 19th 2024 and it's National Pawpaw Day. About this day. National Pawpaw Day, held every third Thursday in September, celebrates a tropical-looking fruit native to North America, which tastes like a cross between a mango, a banana, and sometimes other fruits. I just really love that, and sometimes other fruits. It's a crossing of mango and banana, but sometimes it tastes like something else. Brad Crowell 2:01  And sometimes it could taste like coffee. Lesley Logan 2:03  Yeah, with over 60 varieties and a unique creamy texture, it's a wonder that more people don't know about the pawpaw, also known as the Kentucky Banana and a Hillbilly mango. The pawpaw grows all across the South as the largest fruit native to the United States, although we don't see it on our store shelves much today. The papaw was an important part of traditional Native American diets and is used for various purposes today. I didn't get into why it's not in the grocery stores. I just want to know like now I have so many questions. I've never seen this fruit before. Brad Crowell 2:31  The only reason I even know about this fruit is because of the Jungle Book. Lesley Logan 2:35  It's in the Jungle Book? Brad Crowell 2:37  The bare necessities of life will come to you. And in there, he says something about that and the pawpaw thing. And I was like, what's a pawpaw? (inaudible) I was like, you know, eight.Lesley Logan 2:54  Wow, you're curious. Okay, well, there it is. Lesley Logan 2:58  So coming up, we're actually 10 days away from getting on a plane to go to Cambodia, and you can't come unless you've already signed up for this one. So we're not inviting you to that, but we are inviting that you come to the February one.Brad Crowell 3:12  Yes, February 23rd to 28th, come join us at our home in Siem Reap we're gonna do some working out, a couple workshops, some meditating, some, all the things that you need to hit the reset button, to step away from our craziness that we are all building in our lives and go experience an amazing, amazing place with incredible people and explore the Temples of Angkor, which is our version of the pawpaw Jungle Book song.Lesley Logan 3:39  And their own fruits that taste like similar to different things. But also, if you, like, if when I said you can't come, you got, you felt a ping of disappointment, that means you want to. Brad Crowell 3:52  That's true. Lesley Logan 3:52  So what a fun game I just played. So you need to go to crowsnestretreats.com to snag your spot. The time's running out for that February one. Brad Crowell 4:02  Yeah. PS, a pawpaw looks like a mango but it's not a mango. Lesley Logan 4:07  Like a mango, yeah. But it also, but also, it has weird seeds in it that look like something else, like a like, not a kiwi, but something, I feel like in Cambodia, we've had a fruit that has similar-looking seeds like that. Lesley Logan 4:20  Okay, also, when I get back from Cambodia, I'm going to be going to L.A. for a week and Brad's gonna meet me at some point to film the photo, to do the photos for the upcoming and final deck of the flash cards, the sixth deck. Can you freaking believe it? Holy moly, we are wrapping this project up, my friends, we'll still be talking about for a year, because it takes a year to make these things, a little over a year for every deck. But if you are not on the wait list for the accessories deck, you want to go to opc.me/flashcardwaitlist—that is all singular—opc.me/flashcardwaitlist. I can't say it two more times fast, so we're going to end it there. But only the people on the waitlist get the presale price. The presale price is the best price. Brad Crowell 5:04  The presale price is the best price. Lesley Logan 5:05  And by the way, just so you know, Brad can't wait for this deck to be finished, because he's gonna do a deck together. And if you think, oh, that's when I can get the discount, I've been waiting for years, you're not. He's just gonna charge more to put it in a really nice box, and it'll be really cool. So we have to plan that box out, babe. And then when we come back from that, we're going on, oh, before we do that, okay, Brad's inserting something else. So hold, Brad, why don't you take it from here? Brad Crowell 5:30  Take it away. All right, Brad, we have been working with fitness business owners just like you, whether that means you have a small studio at your home, or maybe you're renting from someone, or you have a team and a larger space. We've been working with Profitable Pilates since 2018 so we're looking at six plus years now, and we've boiled down all the coaching hours and all the coaching calls and all things, we found three big secrets to growing your income. And I've been doing free webinars to help people understand the concepts in this. So I would love for you to join me. If this is something that you know you're feeling stuck in your business, this is a great way to kind of just step back from it, look at it from a third party perspective, and then see how you can apply some of these principles. So come join me. It's called the Pilates Studio Growth Accelerator. You can sign up for free and find all the information on when I'm hosting it next at prfit.biz—that's profit without the O—prfit.biz/accelerator. So come join me for free.Lesley Logan 6:31  All right, and then we are going to go on tour. Brad Crowell 6:34  That's right, December's coming. December into January. We are going to be on the road for 35 days. I'm pretty sure it includes, like, some time off with the family over, over Christmas. But we are gonna be hitting 24 cities. That's at least two events per city. We're talking almost 50 events in a month's period here. We would love to see you in person. Come join us. Go to opc.me/tour and that will either put you on a waitlist for when we actually release all the information, or maybe it's already up and you can start checking out when we're coming near you.Lesley Logan 7:10  By the way, I've already approved the tour shirt.Brad Crowell 7:14  Oh snap. I haven't even seen this yet. Lesley Logan 7:16  I know. You have to wait. You have to wait. Okay, it's fucking fabulous. It's just brilliant. It's so brilliant. So anyways, you're gonna want it, but it's gonna be weird if you wear it and you didn't come on tour. I'm just saying. I mean, you can get it if you didn't come on tour. Brad Crowell 7:33  Yeah, get it anyway. They're turning into collectors editions, people. Lesley Logan 7:36  I know. Especially because we're getting cooler and cooler at it. Okay, before we get into Dr. Louise. Do we have an audience question? Brad Crowell 7:42  We do, @swimdog75 on YouTube asked, "Hey Lesley, I'm a huge fan of yours. I keep seeing the box lately placed in different positions," I'm assuming this means the short box for the reformer, "When I work with certain instructors or teach for one of the certification programs, I see the box in front of the shoulder rest. Other times I see it right in front of the peg of the shoulder rest. Where do you prefer the box?" Lesley Logan 8:05  So great question. Depends on the person. Depends on the box. So here's a deal. I can't tell you why people put tall people on boxes with the box in front of the shoulder rest. If they think it's that the box doesn't move around. If you're getting on the box and it's moving around, you are getting on the box wrong. So, if you didn't ever have a reformer, this is a weird question.Brad Crowell 8:24  Or it depends on the reformer, maybe there's no way to kind of stop it from potentially sliding off. I know yours has like a little slot but. Lesley Logan 8:31  Yeah, I have little pegs and some people don't like to use that because sometimes people like tear the box by putting it over there because the peg is there. Brad Crowell 8:39  Just be careful. Lesley Logan 8:41  Also, just be careful. I've never torn a box, so like, just be thoughtful. So here's the deal. Ideally, you place the box over the shoulder rest before the pegs, if you have them, so that your legs can be straight when under the strap doing the short box series. Brad Crowell 8:57  Okay, say that one more time. Lesley Logan 8:59  The shorter version is you place the box on the reformer where you can have straight legs with your feet underneath the strap for the short box series. That's where you place the box. So.Brad Crowell 9:07  And how far should the box be down your leg? Lesley Logan 9:10  That's going to depend on the size of your butt.Brad Crowell 9:14  So you're just talking about sitting on the box. You have to be able to sit on the box with your legs straight.Lesley Logan 9:19  You sit on the box with a little bit of space behind you. Brad Crowell 9:21  Your feet Lesley Logan 9:22  Under a strap, flexed ankles with tension, and your legs are straight-ish. Brad Crowell 9:27  And a piña colada. Lesley Logan 9:28  Yes. Brad Crowell 9:29  Perfect. Lesley Logan 9:29  And so what I don't like is when I see people because the boxes in front of the shoulder rest have very, very bent knees, like they're in a chair. And then we wonder why they're hanging off their hip flexors, or they're using their back. You put the box in the wrong spot. Now, if the studios you're at have a rule, obviously you got to follow some rules. But if you are here because you like to nerd out and actually understand the why behind the what, your legs are supposed to be straight, you're supposed to use the back of your legs. There's a lot of hamstring, glute, inner thigh working. It's a full body exercise always, if your exercises are only doing sit ups, then you are not using your full body. It's a full body exercise. So you place the box where people can have the straight legs, so they can use their full body and the exercise. And then it comes to but then the box tips because it's over here. Look, you can gear reformers out to create more space. You can put it in front of the shoulder blocks if people are short. You can lengthen the straps. There's a lot of different things you can do. Brad's not on DND, and I already told him that. So at any rate. Brad Crowell 10:26  I am on DND. Lesley Logan 10:27  We are calling you out. Brad Crowell 10:28  It was DND. Lesley Logan 10:30  So at any rate, I prefer the box to be where people can have straight legs and do the short box series with their full body. That's what I prefer. I will show this, I will show this answer on a live on YouTube as well, because I think a visual is a really great idea. Brad Crowell 10:46  That's a great question, swimdog75.Lesley Logan 10:49  And if you are a teacher going, oh my God, I never thought about like that, then it's because you need to do my eLevate program. Brad Crowell 10:55  That's right. Lesley Logan 10:56  And I can't tell you if there's any spots left, because at the time we're recording this, we have more people approved than we can take.Brad Crowell 11:01  But 2026 is coming up and I'm literally already having conversations with people about. Lesley Logan 11:06  We're already filling that. So you want to go. Brad Crowell 11:08  Yeah, go to lesleylogan.co/elevate that's lesleylogan.co/elevate.Lesley Logan 11:15  Send your questions in. We want to answer them. We love answering your questions. It's so much fun. Brad Crowell 11:19  Yeah, by the way, you can text them in so if you haven't just texted, you can text to say hi, hit us up at 310-905-5534, 310-905-5534. Send us a text or a DM or post a comment on the tubes of you. Awesome. All right, well stick around, because in a few minutes, we're going to dig into, or in a minute here, we're gonna dig into Dr. Louise Swarstwalter.Lesley Logan 11:43  And do you know if we made them wait for a few minutes? Stick around for a few minutes.Brad Crowell 11:48  Just stick around, 10 minutes from now, we'll be right back. No, I'm lying. All right. Brad Crowell 11:53  Okay. Now let's talk about Dr. Louise A Swarstwalter. Transformational coach and naturopathic doctor specializing in brain health and emotional healing,. Dr. Swarstwalter is the creator of the Brain Soul Success Academy and the B.R.A.I.N. system. B-R-A-I-N system. She combines multisensory techniques and energy work to help individuals, including children with ADHD, overcome learning challenges and achieve mental clarity. This all happened because of her long journey where, I think she got an accident. I can't remember exactly what triggered it when she was in her 20s and 30s, but she said her brain was really not working properly. Lesley Logan 12:33  She had, like, autoimmune stuff. Brad Crowell 12:34  Yeah, oh, maybe she was sick. Lesley Logan 12:36  Yeah. She was really, really sick, and they couldn't figure it out. Brad Crowell 12:39  Yeah, she said she saw all the doctors, and basically they, you know, she ended up on her own just trying to piece things together, which centered on this journey of beginning to study all sorts of different things. And then she, I don't know when, but, you know, 30s, 40s, she became a doctor. How crazy. Lesley Logan 12:53  It's kind of crazy. I've been, I've been listening to a lot of other doctor modalities lately, and like, the amount of them that have been like, there are so many things in the food and the world today that affecting women's health that it is complicated when something happens and they can't figure it out, because your symptoms are from all over your body, and the doctors here are so siloed.Brad Crowell 13:16  Yeah, they're specialized, sure. Lesley Logan 13:17  So you end up just getting worse and worse, and it's kind of crazy. So she ended up taking, manage it in her own hands and then becoming someone who could heal people, and it's been really crazy to see what she's done. Brad Crowell 13:25  Yeah, it's also, it's also, it's also. Lesley Logan 13:28  You wanted to say it's a little bit weird.You wanted to say it's a little bit weird.Brad Crowell 13:31  It's a little bit weird. Lesley Logan 13:31  It's a little weird. Brad Crowell 13:32  It's a little weird. I'm not gonna lie, but I'll tell you, what's so funny is because she's clearly highly educated, and in the first like, two minutes of the interview, I was like, I want to call this doctor, and I'm ready. And then that was before I even knew anything about her because she's very compelling and she knows what she's talking about.Lesley Logan 13:50  And she also, like, because I've been able to teach for her, her groups of people, they're from all over. They're super cool, also all compassion, also so supportive, and she's really helped them. And I've, I've also seen, like, the before and after picture, the people she's done this stuff with, and by the way, these are before and after, like, we're not talking weight loss, we're talking like her just clearing the thing. Like, I got my, my great grandfather stuff got cleared. I did (inaudible).Brad Crowell 14:16  She introduced herself as a trauma coach. Right?Lesley Logan 14:19  Yeah. My great grandfather's stuff got cleared for me, and I felt so much better for days after. I really felt good. Brad Crowell 14:27  Definitely, on the woo scale, I think we're talking to three. Lesley Logan 14:32  Oh, Brad's going woo, woo, woo? Brad Crowell 14:33  Yeah, we're gonna woo, woo, woo on this one.Lesley Logan 14:36  Does that mean that you came back around though?Brad Crowell 14:38  Maybe. I don't know. I don't know. I'm intrigued. I'm genuinely intrigued. Because.Lesley Logan 14:44  It doesn't. Here's the thing, you don't have to join a commune for this to work. You don't have to go anywhere to get this help. Brad Crowell 14:50  It's not a cult. That I could tell, not that I'm an expert on cult, but it didn't seem like it. Lesley Logan 14:54  Well, I am, but also, but like, it's not like you're doing on a subscription membership. She, I don't think it's a great business model. She cleared my great grandfather's trauma for generations. So it's like, we're done there. Brad Crowell 15:06  Well, it was, you know, and I participated in the exercise too. Even though she was doing it for you, I actually felt more calm. Lesley Logan 15:14  Yeah. So she did the gyms for OPC members. And the members only stuff there is actually this gym thing, and she teaches this thing that she has her kids do, and she does it, like, each day to like, start the day, and it's really a great few minutes you get to spend with yourself and just kind of, like, set yourself up. So I'm not gonna lie, it's different. But also, like, some of the stuff that's out there that we think is safe is not so, like, I'm just saying, it's not, you're not take, here, you're not doing Colloidal Silver, you know what I mean, like you're not drinking anything, not shooting yourself with anything. She's not selling supplements like, you know, well, so I think that takes the woo off. I'm just saying. Brad Crowell 15:51  All right, all right. We'll, we'll settle on a double woo. So when she was talking about energy.Lesley Logan 15:56  Yeah, so she said, we're all energy, 99% space and 1% matter, and she can compare the brain's energy field to an atom with rings around it, which can become unbalanced. And that makes sense to me, like if you think about Saturn's rings and how the solar system works, if something goes out of orbit a little bit, it pulls things in a whole different way, and so it would make you feel out of balance or sick or need something, and she stressed the importance of learning to clear these energetic influences to maintain balance and wellbeing. So I really like that, because sometimes yesterday's shit comes into today, so you can clear that.Brad Crowell 16:32  And not even just yesterday. I mean, yes, that can be internal, but like, especially for teachers you all have, you've all experienced this. Your client comes in, they're in a shit mood and what happens? You walk out of that session going argh because they've affected you, right? We are all susceptible to the energy that's around us. And I definitely have been around people who are angry and I'm like, I don't want to be around that person. I've been the one that are angry, and people said, hey, man, you're stressing me out, even though you're not angry at me. So, you know, we affect, I think we also, like often call this charisma, without realizing that it is energy that we're giving out. Lesley Logan 17:12  You have some rizz, babe, some rizz, that's what they call it now. Brad Crowell 17:14  Yeah, rizz, rizzy riz, so yeah, this doesn't strike me as odd or weird or even woo. I'm totally on board with the energy that we all emit. We are living beings. So sure. Lesley Logan 17:26  So what else did you love now that you're in? Brad Crowell 17:28  Yeah, yeah, okay. She said, pain starts in the field and unresolved issues can hinder progress. So I think when we're talking about the field, we're talking about just being out and doing life and doing the things, right? She said, for instance, personal wellbeing affects business success. So we carry, we carry these things with us throughout the day. They can transit, transfer from, I mean, it's like the work, work energy, home energy. You go home and you're like, I need to chill for a second before I can engage without bringing this with me into my family life, with my kids, or whatever. I'm sure many of you want to understand what I mean there. They're not that I have kids, but she said, oftentimes business owners don't realize that unless you're healthy, your brain is working and your field is clear, they'll keep pumping up against problems such as deeper layers of worry and sabotage. So maybe that, maybe I said that wrong, because I think our field is our energy field that we have. But when things get stuck in that energy field, we're bringing it with us into the other events of our lives. And it can affect our business, it can affect your sleep. It clearly can affect your relationships. It can affect the way that you see yourself. And I thought it was interesting, because what she asked you about was are you brought up the worrying?Lesley Logan 18:43  Yes, I was in a very big state of worry. I had this thing that I couldn't stop worrying about. And I was like, you know when you worry about something and then you spin it out, like they're like, then it's gonna go out to this. Oh my god, if I don't admit it, then it's, then it could actually, if we don't take care, it's gonna affect that, then that's gonna affect this. And I went on this domino, you guys. I told myself a story. It was a series. I told myself an entire series.Brad Crowell 19:06  Well, yeah, and again. I think this makes total sense to me, and this doesn't strike me as odd, that when we are affected by something, we carry that with us, that baggage with us, especially with trauma. I think the concept of trauma seems very tangible to me, and I understand that. So this idea of a field, pain starts in the field. It will stay with you. So yeah, that's then where we get into clearing that field. And I need to understand a little bit more about that with her. But stick around for that. We're gonna, we're gonna talk a little bit more about that in just a second. Brad Crowell 19:40  All right, so welcome back. Thanks. Finally, let's talk about those, Be It Action Items. What bold, executable, intrinsic or targeted action items can we take away from your convo with Dr Swarstwalter? She said we obviously need to keep working on ourselves and be mindful of brain hiccups, right, or moments of worry or anxiety where we shift back into what was in our field, right, the things that were stuck there. And she said a good way to be conscious of those things is to pull out a journal and just jot down a note—I worried about this today—and it allows you to come back to it later and be like, wow, six times today I worried about this thing, or just have some moments of reflection or awareness. But what I didn't talk about, I wanted to make sure y'all got the follow-up there. So the thing that I found that I don't really understand at all, and what was like double woo on the spectrum for me during your interview, was when she was clearing your ancestral trauma, and she mentioned this. I don't even know what she called it, actually, but it was like the somehow, the study of universal numbers, and she brought those numbers into play when she was working with you to clear what was stemming from your great grandfather. And I don't understand that in any way. So that's intriguing to me.Lesley Logan 20:56  Oh my God, I forgot to tell you. After this, so if you all listen to the interview, so it's important, you know that, like, my dad did not leave me, my parents did a mini separation. I'm pretty sure my grandfather told my dad to, like, he had to take my mom, or my mom had, like, somehow, my grandfather. Brad Crowell 21:15  I'll get them back home, basically. Lesley Logan 21:16  Yeah, so, and it wasn't like my dad wanted to leave. So I think it's really, really important, like, there was nothing. It wasn't like my dad was like, I don't want to be a dad anymore. But I asked my dad out of curiosity, hey Dad, how old was I? He said, the exact age that, that we said that, Dr. Louise said on, she's like, you were like 11, so and I was like, he said, he's like, yeah, I think you were like 11 or 12. And I was like, wow. I did not tell him. I did not, I said, hey, I'm just like, curious, like, remember that time like.Brad Crowell 21:41  Did you tell her? Lesley Logan 21:42  No. Brad Crowell 21:42  I'm just also intrigued. That was like, I literally rewound that and watch that two or three times. Because I was like, what did I just see? And I, because it was when she started to just do her work, and not explain what she was doing, that I was like, where are we going here, and what's happening right now? Lesley Logan 21:57  And she asked, and she said you were 11 years old. And I was like, okay, so I just, like, that night my it was just my dad and I going to the gym, and I said, hey, Dad, like, kind of curious, remember that time, like, you got your mom, like, separated for, like, I don't know, 36 fucking hours, like, and he's like, I think you're like, 11. And I was like, shut up. Shut up.Brad Crowell 22:17  Well, that's kind of amazing. All right. Well, anyway, what about you? What's your Be It Action Item? Lesley Logan 22:22  If you've ever been like, I only need to listen to recaps. I don't have to listen to an interview. It's like, (inaudible) it all. Now, you do.Brad Crowell 22:29  You have to listen to the interview. In fact, watch the interview, watch it on YouTube, because, like, she's, she's incredibly endearing, too. Lesley Logan 22:37  She's so sweet. Brad Crowell 22:38  Yeah, she's lovely.Lesley Logan 22:39  She looks like she should be teaching at church on Sundays. She said practice your mind gems. And it's her free gift, everyone. So if you don't, if you're an OPC member, you'll ask, you can still access this mind gems gift, but if you're an OPC member, you can, like, watch her teach it to me and all that stuff. Brad Crowell 22:54  And this is what a mind gem, a mind gem is a set of handheld positions, that you can do in like five minutes or less, and what it'll do for you is change your focus and balance so it can increase your focus and memory, improve your balance and align your energy, and then get grounded and better sleep.Lesley Logan 23:12  Yeah. So you do some stuff with your hands on your head, and you switch which hand goes there, so you can stay present. Then you clear shock and anxiety by counting your fingers and pressing them on either side of your thymus gland. Then you breathe deeply during these exercises to enhance their common effects. So there's all these different things you can do, and I can't. I obviously haven't practiced them. So clearly called out right now, but it's her gift to you, so don't let me take that away from you. It's really cool. When we did it with the OPC members, like, people really loved it, and they're like, I want my mom to do this. So, like, super, super cool stuff. So your Be It takeaway is to go get your mind gems tutorial and try it. Because here's the thing, if meditating for four minutes or five minutes is not working for you, if breath work isn't working for you, you tried face yoga, it didn't work for you, and you tell me all the time, I'm so busy, I'm so busy, you may as well give the mind gems a try, because it takes four minutes and you get to move around, you get to count, you get to think. So it's all those things, plus it's calming and it clears your field. It's kind of cool. Brad Crowell 24:08  I love it, yeah, oh, links in the show notes. Or you can go to her website, brainsoulsuccess.com and from there, click on the download mind gems.Lesley Logan 24:17  She is on this mission to heal so many brains. So like, she's kind of amazing. She's been on so many TV shows. She's quite cool. Brad Crowell 24:25  She has been on all sorts of TV shows. It's true. Yep.Lesley Logan 24:30  I'm Lesley Logan. Brad Crowell 24:31  And I'm Brad Crowell. Lesley Logan 24:32  How are you going to use these tips in your life? We want to know. Tag, the Be It Pod. Tag Dr. Louise. Share this with a friend. You know, you know, share it with a friend who also might think things are (inaudible) but you can previs like she, like, I was, you listen to recap. She did not know about, I think Brad knew that my parents had, like, a momentary separation. So at any rate, like, it's pretty cool. It's pretty interesting. So you can share it with a friend who needs it, and until next time, Be It Till You See It. Brad Crowell 25:00  Bye for now. Lesley Logan 25:02  That's all I got for this episode of the Be It Till You See It Podcast.

In the 9th century AD, two years after the Holy Roman Empire was established in Western Christendom, another world-shaking empire was rising in the east, more powerful even than that of Charlemagne and far wealthier. Born in what is today Northern Cambodia but long before the horrors of the Khmer Rouge, the mighty Khmer empire dominated most of mainland Southeast Asia, stretching as far north as southern China, and far outsizing the Byzantine empire and its peak. In 802 a mighty warrior king, Jayavarman II, united the warring clans, made dynastic alliances and conquered his way to supremacy. His descendants would become God Kings…Meanwhile, in the famed city of Angkor, the divine kings of the Khmers built a temple of such epic proportions and complexity, such beauty, that its fame - like the temple itself - would endure across the ages: Angkor Wat. But what is the truth of Angkor Wat's origins? And how much does it owe to the example of India? Join William and Anita as they discuss the extraordinary Khmer empire and the divine kings who raised her, illuminating as they do, one of the greatest lost history's in all the world.

(0:00:44) Kev: I’m actually obligated to. (0:00:46) Al: I suspect I’ve already made that joke though, haven’t I? (0:00:49) Al: I probably made that joke a year ago. (0:00:51) Kev: Yeah, that’s fine. (0:00:52) Al: Um. (0:00:53) Kev: Oh yes, cottagecore. (0:00:55) Kev: But we’re here to talk about Cozy’s studio Ghibli likes. (0:00:59) Al: Yeah. (0:01:01) Al: Yes. (0:01:01) Al: So we are going to talk this episode about Mika and the Witches Mountain. (0:01:07) Al: This episode is the reason that Dave the Diver Month got delayed, basically. (0:01:07) Kev: finally (0:01:14) Al: We, we managed big news and full disclosure, because we have to say this. (0:01:14) Kev: Yeah (0:01:20) Al: Uh, we got a free code for Mika and the Witches Mountain for review. (0:01:25) Al: Uh, so, um, thank you to Chibi Games for that. (0:01:28) Kev: both of us oh oh okay sorry well ah that’s how you got it okay like (0:01:29) Al: No, just you. (0:01:31) Al: I paid for mine, but you, you got yours free, I paid for mine. (0:01:35) Al: Uh, I mean, to be fair, I paid for it like three years ago in Kickstarter. (0:01:42) Al: Um, so because of that, we then had like a specific time that they (0:01:48) Al: wanted the review to be done by. (0:01:50) Al: So we are doing the episode now, which means that hopefully next episode will (0:01:55) Al: be the final episode of Dave the Diver Month, or maybe not because of new (0:02:01) Al: I’m not going to talk about the Dave the Diver news in this episode, (0:02:02) Kev: I was about to say or maybe not. (0:02:04) Al: because there is Dave the Diver news. (0:02:06) Al: We’re going to talk about that in the next episode, just cause it’s so close. (0:02:09) Al: Um, so there we go. (0:02:12) Al: So yes, uh, we’re going to talk about Mika and the Witches Mountain. (0:02:12) Kev: And we can finally say #sponsored. (0:02:15) Al: Um, the hashtag sponsored hashtag, hashtag ad. (0:02:22) Al: Uh, I think it’s actually hashtag gifted. (0:02:25) Al: It’s not an ad. (0:02:25) Al: It’s not sponsored as gifted as a difference there. (0:02:28) Al: Cause we’re, we’re obviously. (0:02:30) Al: Getting the review code would not change our review. (0:02:33) Al: We would be reviewing it in the same way, whether we were paying for it or not. (0:02:36) Al: Uh, yeah. (0:02:36) Kev: Yup, that’s why Nintendo won’t sponsor Alex. (0:02:43) Al: Yes. (0:02:44) Al: And, um, unlike the developers of that new game that I can’t remember the name of, (0:02:49) Al: uh, we will talk about the politics of China. (0:02:52) Al: Uh, yeah, I think that’s something like that. (0:02:53) Kev: Oh my gosh, Black- Is it Black Wukong? (0:02:58) Al: I can’t remember what the name is, but yeah, it’s something like that. (0:03:01) Al: Very, very awkward. (0:03:03) Al: All that news of them trying to stop people talking about things that people (0:03:07) Al: are obviously going to talk about. (0:03:08) Kev: Yeah, oh good. (0:03:08) Al: Uh, but as far as I know, there’s no, uh, there’s no kind of big political issues (0:03:16) Al: with chibi games, uh, so we’re going to just talk about the game, um, because (0:03:20) Al: there’s no controversies that I know of to talk about before that. (0:03:23) Al: We have some news and first of all, Kevin, what have you been up to? (0:03:26) Kev: Well, a lot of meat primarily, but on the off chance I do get a breather, I look in (0:03:36) Kev: meek at time of course, I played hey guess what, a Mario game, Chalker, particularly (0:03:45) Kev: where was it, Mario World 2 Yoshi’s Island, I forget the swirlder land, but Yoshi’s Island, (0:03:50) Kev: the first Yoshi’s Island for the SNES, yep it’s the one with the bait. (0:03:52) Al: Is that the one with the babies? (0:03:56) Kev: The SNES always surprises me, like how modern it looks compared to the NES or whatever, (0:04:07) Kev: but anyways, I mean it’s a Yoshi game, it’s good, have you played any Yoshi games now? (0:04:12) Al: I have played this one specifically because when I was playing through the Mario games, (0:04:20) Al: the way that I defined it was anything that says “Super Mario” and is a platformer. So (0:04:26) Kev: Okay, sure. (0:04:26) Al: this one being called “Super Mario World 2, Yoshi’s Island” meant that I played this one. (0:04:31) Al: But I also included then the first Wario World as well, because that was a Super Mario World (0:04:37) Al: 2. Was it 4 or 3? I can’t remember. It was one of them anyway. So yeah. (0:04:38) Kev: That was three, wasn’t it, I think. (0:04:40) Kev: Yeah. (0:04:42) Al: Back when they would make a random platformer for another character and just slap Mario’s (0:04:48) Al: name on it. Yeah, yeah. Well, why not? I don’t think I’ve played any of the other ones. I’ve (0:04:50) Kev: It was a good strategy. They go, “I should go back.” (0:04:53) Kev: Um, yeah. (0:04:56) Kev: Mm. (0:04:57) Al: been meaning to play Willy World for a while just because it looks fun. But I don’t think (0:05:00) Kev: Yeah. (0:05:02) Al: I need to have a look at the list of (0:05:04) Kev: Yeah, well, shocker. (0:05:05) Kev: The core of the game, of a Nintendo game, has stayed pretty intact all these years. (0:05:11) Kev: Um, it’s a fun one. I like it. (0:05:14) Kev: Yoshi’s Island, um, (0:05:16) Kev: introduces all the Yoshi mechanics that are just (0:05:20) Kev: Mario stuff right not just the the eggs but the the flutter jump all sorts (0:05:24) Al: Yeah, but I guess the interesting thing about this one was that it was you were (0:05:24) Kev: of the Yoshi cop they’re all sorts of fun things if you want here (0:05:30) Al: controlling Yoshi rather than controlling Mario on you. (0:05:32) Kev: yeah that’s true yeah it’s true no longer your loyal steed slash jump (0:05:37) Kev: assist when you throw him in the pit didn’t make that jump but yeah if you (0:05:45) Kev: want to hear extended thoughts on Mr. Yoshi’s first (0:05:50) Kev: spotlight feature, well that’s not true, he had that Yoshi puzzle game, whatever, (0:05:56) Kev: go listen to Rainbow Road Radio, the show I do with Alex, that’ll be the next (0:06:01) Kev: episode, he’ll be out by the time this is out, so yeah, go check that out. Other than (0:06:07) Kev: that, I’m pretty sure I talked about Battle Cats a long long time ago on this (0:06:12) Kev: podcast, it’s a mobile game, it’s tower defense, you control these goofy cats (0:06:17) Kev: that’s sending your or me (0:06:20) Kev: to get units to go fight the enemy CPU units or whatever (0:06:25) Kev: I go on and off it (0:06:27) Kev: one thing about it, they do collabs with all sorts of different properties (0:06:32) Kev: the most wild ones like they’ve done Evangelion, Street Fighter (0:06:36) Kev: and they happen to do one with Ruruni Kenshin (0:06:39) Kev: which brought me back in hard (0:06:42) Kev: do you know Ruruni Kenshin now? (0:06:44) Al: - I do not, I was just about to ask, what is that? (0:06:45) Kev: Oh, okay, um, it’s a manga/anime, uh, unfortunately. (0:06:50) Kev: Of course, the very problematic creators I will acknowledge. Uh, by problematic, I mean awful. I won’t… yeah, not a great person, but the manga/… yup. Yup, not good things. Yeah, okay, criminal. Okay, let’s… okay, a criminal. A criminal creator. Let’s bump it up a little. (0:06:55) Al: I’m going to Wikipedia and looking at, oh right, okay, yep. (0:07:07) Al: That’s not just problematic, we’re not going to talk about that. (0:07:20) Kev: - But, which is unfortunate, ‘cause the manga slash anime (0:07:22) Kev: was very popular, was from like the ’90s, I believe, (0:07:26) Kev: and very well-liked and whatnot. (0:07:30) Kev: I watched it when I was younger, actually, in Mexico, (0:07:33) Kev: because Mexico had a lot of anime going on back then. (0:07:36) Kev: It still does. (0:07:38) Kev: It’s a, you know, it’s a whole thing. (0:07:40) Kev: It’s about samurais, basically. (0:07:41) Kev: I’m just really cool and really enjoyable. (0:07:44) Kev: And so, yeah, hearing that Colab got my attention, (0:07:48) Kev: so I got into it back in about, (0:07:50) Kev: and that was fun to see. (0:07:52) Kev: And then, Zona Zen Zero, the whole reverse game, (0:07:56) Kev: I continue to play it. (0:07:57) Kev: I’m actually kind of getting finally invested (0:08:00) Kev: into the story a little bit after like a month, (0:08:04) Kev: some time to get through all the gobbledygook (0:08:08) Kev: and nonsense words they use to finally understand (0:08:11) Kev: what’s going on. (0:08:13) Kev: One thing interesting about it is because it’s, you know, (0:08:16) Kev: ongoing engine-type game. (0:08:18) Kev: Like I– (0:08:20) Kev: Kind of hit. I think the end of the available story, right? (0:08:22) Kev: They do chapter drops or whatever and so now I have to wait for the next one. (0:08:27) Kev: Which is just an interesting experience. I don’t think I’ve ever had to really deal with it, at least in a video game, right? (0:08:33) Kev: But yeah, that’s what I’ve been up to. What about you, Al? What’s going on with you? (0:08:38) Al: Well, I have obviously been playing Mika as well, and we’ll talk about that. (0:08:44) Al: I have also, we are recording on the 23rd of August, which is the day the Harvest Moon Home (0:08:50) Al: Sweet Home comes out. So, or came out, or has come out. It’s out. So, I have bought it, and I have (0:08:52) Kev: against all odds with no no work no not a whisper of anything about it but it (0:09:09) Al: a little bit. Obviously not very much, because it’s the first day, and I’ve been working today. (0:09:15) Al: Well, I will obviously have a lot more thoughts about this in the future, but my first (0:09:24) Al: thought is this game has basically no controller support, but it’s not completely not, right? It (0:09:32) Al: has, I’ve found one thing that has controller support for, and that’s conversations. When you’re (0:09:38) Al: you can proceed the conversation with the controller. Nothing else. And it’s so weird. So weird. (0:09:42) Kev: That’s so weird. You have to play on your phone, but when you hit the conversation pick up your controller (0:09:49) Al: It’s so weird. Well, that’s the thing. Because I have an Android phone, and I have an iPad, (0:09:56) Al: I have to decide on which platform I’m going to purchase on, right? Because I’m not going to (0:10:00) Al: purchase on both. Although I will say, interestingly, it’s not that expensive. It’s 18 (0:10:05) Al: £14 on IOS and it’s £14. (0:10:08) Kev: Oh, I’m a darned. (0:10:08) Al: It’s weird that there’s the difference there, but it’s not an insane, you know, it’s not (0:10:14) Al: it’s not a ridiculous amount. (0:10:16) Al: It was pretty good for what it is, but I’m probably still not going to buy it on both. (0:10:23) Al: So I had to decide and I was like, I can’t, I think I decided originally to buy on Android. (0:10:28) Al: So I bought it and downloaded it and opened it and it crashed. (0:10:33) Al: And apparently they’ve had an issue on Android where the game is crashing just now. (0:10:33) Kev: Oh (0:10:36) Kev: Say yes, I have to buy both (0:10:37) Al: And so I was like… (0:10:39) Al: I went on to the Play Store and there was a refund button. (0:10:42) Al: So I was like, “Oh, well, I’ll refund that and I’ll go buy it on iPad then.” (0:10:46) Al: So I’ve been playing it on the iPad. (0:10:48) Al: But the problem with that is obviously I would like to use my controller (0:10:50) Al: because it’s on my iPad, right? (0:10:52) Al: Like I don’t want to be like holding my 13-inch iPads, (0:10:56) Al: trying to play touchscreen controls. (0:11:00) Kev: Back to the Wii U days, baby. (0:11:02) Al: It’s worse than that. (0:11:02) Al: It’s so much bigger than that. (0:11:06) Al: I do have an iPad mini. (0:11:08) Al: So I will try it out on that and see how it feels on that as well. (0:11:11) Al: But this this might not be a good start to it. (0:11:14) Al: Although I will have to see. (0:11:16) Al: I need to check this. (0:11:17) Al: I meant to check this earlier (0:11:20) Al: because Mac OS has a thing now where you can install iPad apps. (0:11:23) Al: So I need to see if I can install that and maybe I can play it on my Mac. (0:11:25) Kev: Ooh. That’d be nice. (0:11:26) Al: We’ll see. (0:11:27) Kev: Is there no blue stacks equivalent on Mac? (0:11:30) Al: What that is, that is that. (0:11:32) Kev: Oh, that is. Okay. Okay. (0:11:34) Al: Yeah, it’s the same thing. (0:11:35) Al: and technically developers can deceive. (0:11:39) Al: So, we’ll see whether they’ve disabled it or not. (0:11:39) Kev: Mmm, let’s see. (0:11:42) Al: I would hope not, but we’ll see. (0:11:42) Kev: Okay. (0:11:44) Kev: Um, okay, about the game, okay, the big question about the game itself, (0:11:49) Kev: is it, you know, a farming game? (0:11:51) Kev: Don’t even know what it’s supposed to be. (0:11:52) Al: Yeah, I would say it’s basically, it’s a Harvest Moon game. Now the question is whether it is a (0:11:56) Kev: Okay, it is a harvest move. (0:11:59) Al: Harvest Moon game, and they’ve definitely thought about it in terms of touch screen first. I would (0:12:04) Al: say touch screen first, or touch screen only, clearly, because they don’t have the controller (0:12:07) Kev: Okay. (0:12:08) Al: support. Which is, I mean, the fact that they’ve thought about it touch screen first is good, (0:12:09) Kev: Yay. (0:12:14) Al: the fact that it doesn’t support controllers is bad. But yeah, it’ll be interesting to see (0:12:16) Kev: Yeah. (0:12:20) Kev: Okay. (0:12:20) Al: how things go. I’ve not put enough into it to- (0:12:23) Al: You know, an opinion on the story or the full mechanics or anything like that. That episode will come. (0:12:24) Kev: Sure. (0:12:27) Kev: Sure. (0:12:30) Al: But yeah, so start off disappointing. We’ll see. We’ll see where it goes from here. (0:12:36) Kev: - Nah. (0:12:41) Al: I think I also- I launched- I bought and started playing (0:12:46) Al: Natsumon? Is that real? Yeah, Natsumon, 20th century summer kid. I haven’t played a lot of that, though. (0:12:52) Al: That’s probably for the future, because there’s a lot happening just now. (0:12:57) Al: That was one of the games that Micah talked about, I think, last year. End of the year. (0:13:00) Kev: Ahh, okay. Oh, I love that art style. (0:13:04) Al: And they only added the English translation at the beginning of this month, so. (0:13:09) Kev: - Okay, cool, cool, cool. (0:13:11) Al: So yeah, that’s what we’ve been playing. So, into the news. Speaking of mobile games, (0:13:17) Kev: Eh? (0:13:17) Al: we have some Animal Crossing news. It’s been a while since we’ve had some Animal Crossing news, Kevin. (0:13:22) Al: And now it’s time to talk about a game, (0:13:23) Kev: It’s good for once. (0:13:25) Al: now it’s time to talk about an Animal Crossing game that neither of us have really played. (0:13:30) Al: I think I have downloaded it and I’ve opened it and got really bored really quickly. (0:13:35) Al: But that is Animal Crossing Pocket Camp. (0:13:38) Al: So the news is that the game is shutting down. (0:13:42) Al: But don’t worry, they’re releasing it again offline. (0:13:47) Al: So this is very interesting and I wanna know what you think. (0:13:50) Al: But my opinion is that this is. (0:13:52) Al: Because I think exactly what we want online games to do is when they shut down, they (0:13:59) Al: release another version that allows you to play the whole game without in-app purchases. (0:14:05) Al: And granted, it’s going to cost money. (0:14:07) Al: And I accept that because it takes work and that’s life. (0:14:13) Al: But it’ll be interesting to see how much it costs. (0:14:15) Al: That will be the killer, I think. (0:14:18) Al: I think overall, although some people we disappointed because they obviously… (0:14:22) Al: It means there’s no new events in the game. I think that overall it’s a good news because it’s not going… (0:14:28) Kev: All right, I heard, I cannot source or confirm, I heard that they will try to do some events (0:14:34) Kev: still for the first, like, while for the offline version, but… (0:14:38) Al: No, I haven’t seen anything about that. What they have said is that they’ll be doing events (0:14:44) Al: and adding some items until the end of the current version, which ends, which is running (0:14:48) Kev: Oh, okay, that’s why it would have hurt, nevermind. (0:14:51) Kev: Um, but still. (0:14:54) Al: until the 28th of November. That is when they’re going to shut it down. So they said there (0:14:59) Al: will be some more events and items before then, but I haven’t seen anything about new (0:15:04) Al: stuff in the in the. (0:15:07) Kev: if uh if i’m employed by that point I will pick this up because i’m much more interested now that (0:15:14) Kev: I can just play it all especially offline um because that’s uh that’s my idea (0:15:21) Al: It’s going to be very interesting to me how much it costs. Will it cost like what Mario (0:15:27) Al: Run cost? Was that like 20 dollars? Something like that? Or whether it ends up going like (0:15:32) Kev: I was about to say, it’s in the new nintendo to pick the latest entry into the animal crossing (0:15:36) Al: a full price switch game. I would be surprised if it did. But you never know, it is Nintendo. (0:15:47) Kev: series, full price animal crossing, locket camp deluxe. (0:15:51) Al: - It turns out the Switch 2 runs Android. (0:15:58) Al: Look, we’ve got a new Animal Crossing game for the new console. (0:16:02) Al: Yeah, the other thing is, they haven’t said for certain that it’s definitely 100% offline. (0:16:09) Al: Let me see if I can find the wording. (0:16:11) Al: It says, “We’re developing a version of Animal Crossing Pocket Camp that users (0:16:15) Al: can continue to play with their save file.” (0:16:17) Al: So that’s a key point your data will carry across. (0:16:20) Kev: Oh, yeah that yeah, can you imagine if it did? (0:16:21) Al: You would think that would be a minimum required thing for this, but just it’s good to have the clarification. (0:16:29) Kev: You know in this day and age yeah, yeah, it’s good to have that clarification (0:16:33) Al: You carry over your saved data by linking your Nintendo account. (0:16:37) Al: It says, but you cannot carry over any remaining leaf tickets. (0:16:40) Al: I think they were the like paid item that unlocked things in the game. (0:16:42) Kev: score. Right. (0:16:44) Al: So obviously it doesn’t make any sense if there aren’t, because it says it’s a paid app without in-app purchases. (0:16:52) Al: The question of course is whether that means everything in the game, all the items will be unlocked for everybody. (0:16:59) Al: And if so, do you have to do something to unlock them? (0:17:03) Al: Like are there going to be challenges or is it just you can access everything like you had paid for it? (0:17:10) Kev: if I were making the decision / this is my guess I’d say you there’s a new fake (0:17:19) Kev: premium currency new leaf tickets what I would call it and you have to do (0:17:24) Kev: challenges to earn that and that’s what so that way they can just leave like (0:17:26) Al: That’s a possible. I wouldn’t be surprised if that wasn’t the case purely because that (0:17:33) Al: sounds like work and is probably more less work just to have like I can’t I don’t I (0:17:40) Al: don’t think I played long enough to know how these things unlock but I’m presuming it’s (0:17:45) Al: just a shop somewhere and so instead that shop just has a cost of zero for everything (0:17:50) Kev: - Oh, okay. (0:17:52) Kev: Or can they change it to, I don’t know about this games, (0:17:54) Kev: non-premium currency, I don’t know. (0:17:56) Al: Yeah, we’ll find out. The other thing is it says it does not require constant data communication, (0:18:02) Al: but that word constant would imply that maybe there is some internet connectivity to it, (0:18:08) Al: but why would they do that if they’re shutting down the game? So I’m a little bit intrigued (0:18:11) Al: as to what that means and what exactly it’s going to look like. They have said they’re (0:18:16) Al: going to have more details about the new app in October, so I guess we’ll find out. (0:18:21) Kev: - All right, but like I said, I’m looking forward. (0:18:23) Al: Yeah, I will. I will almost certainly purchase. (0:18:26) Al: This will I regret purchasing it? We’ll find out. Stay tuned. (0:18:35) Al: Next, we have a renamed game. What was previously called a last song is now called MeloBot, (0:18:43) Al: a last song. MeloBot, MeloBot is a good name. I’m not a huge fan of like subtitles in games, (0:18:44) Kev: I love Metabots! (0:18:46) Kev: Classic. (0:18:52) Al: but I get why they’re doing this one, right? Because it makes it very clear that it’s a (0:18:58) Kev: yeah yeah i’m actually a fan of subtitles and the reason like because if they want to make you (0:19:08) Kev: know franchise or whatever sequels like having different subtitles I think is better than the (0:19:14) Kev: the numbering thing (0:19:16) Al: I mean, I personally I prefer just numbering because then it makes it very clear the order. (0:19:22) Al: But that aside, I think part of the reason I don’t like subtitles is because it implies (0:19:28) Al: that they are going to make a franchise and it’s like, don’t assume that you’re going (0:19:31) Al: to be successful enough to do a franchise. And often subtitles are really, you know, (0:19:40) Al: stupid and not like, so let’s talk about the art games, for example, right? (0:19:44) Kev: Yeah, yeah the pinnacle of subtitles (0:19:47) Al: A perfect example of bad subtitles. They have their first game was Ark Survival Evolved, (0:19:53) Al: right? Which, OK, sure, fine, you’re making it clear it’s a survival game. That’s fine. (0:19:59) Al: Evolved, maybe that’s talking about the dinosaurs. Who knows? What I find confusing about it, (0:20:07) Al: though, is that when you get to a second game, you then start to go, well, is Evolved the first (0:20:12) Al: or the second game? Because Evolved would imply to me that it’s like an evolution of the previous (0:20:16) Al: game. And then their particular problem is they have a remaster of the original called (0:20:23) Al: Ark Survival Ascendant, which is very not clear what, like, why? Why those two names? (0:20:31) Al: And how you meant to know which is which based on those names? That’s my main problem. And then, (0:20:35) Al: of course, their new game is just called Ark 2. So they just can’t decide what they want to do. (0:20:40) Kev: Beautiful. (0:20:41) Kev: I like that. (0:20:42) Al: But anyway, as subtitles go, this is not a bad subtitle. (0:20:43) Kev: Mm-hmm. (0:20:48) Al: I guess just a reminder to people, this is the game where you play as a robot on an alien planet and you are healing plants with salt. (0:20:58) Kev: Yeah, there is in fact rhythm gameplay in this game. (0:21:04) Kev: I was looking at the trailer. (0:21:06) Kev: That looks nice. (0:21:08) Al: Yeah, so it’s a little world that you walk around in and you find plants and then you (0:21:12) Al: have to use your rhythm to heal them, which is a fun little idea. And, you know, I like (0:21:16) Kev: - Mm-hmm, yeah. (0:21:19) Al: the idea of kind of combining a, I don’t know if it’s open world or what, but like, you (0:21:23) Al: know, a world traversal, also with rhythm. (0:21:28) Kev: And somehow there’s still combat. I don’t know if that’s rhythm based, but there is you (0:21:32) Al: I think it is. I think it is rhythm-based as well, based on the trailer. We’ll see. (0:21:37) Kev: Which is a cool idea, um, it looks nice i’m down for this september 12th. That’s not far off (0:21:42) Al: Yeah, so that’s the other news. It’s coming out on the 12th of September, and they’ve (0:21:44) Kev: plus a month (0:21:54) Al: or three weeks three weeks is that three weeks to go till it comes out next we have the full patch (0:22:00) Al: notes for the new disney dreamlight valley update dapper delights so if you want them they are now (0:22:06) Al: available and (0:22:06) Kev: Did they add hot hot ones to the game the reverse of the collab? (0:22:12) Al: Uhhh… no. I feel like I’m missing a reference. (0:22:16) Kev: No (0:22:18) Kev: Okay, you know what hot ones is right (0:22:19) Al: The, like, wings challenge. Yeah. Yeah. (0:22:22) Kev: Yes, yes, okay. Yes the talk show where people eat spicy food in the meanwhile or whatever, right? (0:22:28) Kev: They’re they’re doing with Donald Doug and animated Donald duck (0:22:30) Al: Um… why? (0:22:35) Kev: It was I think (0:22:36) Kev: 90th anniversary, I guess (0:22:43) Al: Oh no, that sounds (0:22:49) Kev: I mean the animations good. I will say that they’re not limping on it. But um, I (0:22:56) Kev: Gotta love how the host is just gonna be talking (0:23:00) Kev: itself I guess or standing Donald (0:23:03) Al: I really don’t know what to say. I’ve never watched a full episode of Hot Ones, (0:23:03) Kev: Good you got a little bit (0:23:06) Kev: I (0:23:11) Al: I’ve just seen clips on TikTok. Sorry, what now? No. As in, like, the animated character or as in… (0:23:12) Kev: Haven’t either but um, yeah, I’m excited for it. Will this be as good as doofenschwertz on shark tank? I don’t know. Oh (0:23:22) Kev: You didn’t know that dr. Doofenschwertz from a Phineas and Ferb was on shark tank (0:23:30) Kev: That is correct, yes (0:23:31) Al: But… (0:23:33) Al: I don’t know what to say. So no, The Hot Ones is not suddenly in Dreamlight Valley. (0:23:35) Kev: I’ll see you tomorrow. (0:23:36) Kev: Bye! (0:23:46) Al: But no, this update adds Tiana from Princess and the Frog, and she brings a restaurant with her. (0:23:51) Kev: Oh, okay. (0:23:55) Kev: Uh-oh, Rami’s facing competition now. She’s got to pick a side. (0:23:56) Al: I don’t think I’ve seen the Princess and the Frog. Is that a thing she’s known for? (0:24:00) Al: I’ve not seen the Princess and the Frog. (0:24:02) Kev: Oh, that’s her entire thing. Like, (0:24:05) Kev: her ho- she’s- works in a restaurant, wants to save up to own- open her own restaurant. That’s her dream. (0:24:10) Al: Fair enough? Well, yeah, so the full details on the update are right now. And I did notice (0:24:19) Al: that we do have confirmation now that the Act III of the DLC, which comes out with the update, is (0:24:26) Al: the final in the Rift of Time expansion, which I think confirms that the next thing that they’re (0:24:34) Al: hinting at, the next expansion they’re hinting at is our new expansion, because I looked on Steam, (0:24:38) Al: and when you’re purchasing the (0:24:40) Kev: Mm-hmm (0:24:40) Al: expansion, you are very explicitly purchasing Disney Dreamlight Valley Arift in Time. So (0:24:45) Al: I think that’s Arift in Time is complete and the next thing that they’re hinting that comes (0:24:49) Al: later this year will be another paid. (0:24:52) Kev: Sure, and other things, yeah. I wonder what it’ll be. (0:24:56) Al: Yeah, I don’t think that I don’t think we’ve got any real hints on on that yet. (0:25:00) Al: So we’ll we’ll see. (0:25:02) Al: We’ll see what comes. (0:25:06) Al: Next, we have a new update for Steam World Build. (0:25:10) Al: The Skull Valley update is out now. (0:25:13) Al: So this adds a whole new map (0:25:15) Al: filled with piratey perils and opportunities. (0:25:18) Al: Build your town town. (0:25:21) Al: Build your town amidst palm trees, (0:25:23) Al: canons and the looming shadow of the Kraken. (0:25:25) Al: So there you go. (0:25:26) Kev: Okay, I have not played this one. I’m out of the loop here. (0:25:26) Al: And so this is the, it’s a town builder, a SteamWorld town builder. (0:25:30) Kev: Kraken’s are cool. (0:25:34) Kev: Yeah, I remember that. (0:25:36) Al: So this is just a new map for the town builder with some new stuff in it, which is cool. (0:25:41) Kev: The brand-new map is pretty cool (0:25:45) Kev: Yeah (0:25:46) Kev: Rockin school. Oh, oh there. I’m seeing the picture. It’s it’s cracking like in the desert. Okay. You could do is expecting that (0:25:54) Al: Yeah, I don’t know whether anything will come with that or not, because it does say looming (0:25:59) Al: shadow of the Kraken implies that something might come from that. But it does look very much dried up. (0:26:05) Kev: yeah that that’s actually a fun aesthetic dried up pirate island um and I like that that’s cool (0:26:10) Al: Yeah. (0:26:13) Al: So if you’ve been playing SteamWorld Build, go get the update now. If you haven’t been playing it, (0:26:17) Al: and you’re like, you know what I really want, what will make me buy this game? (0:26:21) Al: Pirates. Well, there you go. Now you can go. (0:26:24) Kev: You know what would make me buy a game, Al? (0:26:25) Al: Nothing you say is gonna be true right now. (0:26:29) Kev: Spinach. (0:26:30) Kev: What if they’re gonna have spinach? (0:26:33) Al: Oh, my word. (0:26:33) Kev: You’re– ooh. (0:26:36) Al: Farming Simulator 25, in our continual coverage (0:26:39) Al: of this game for some reason, we’ve (0:26:43) Al: got some more information on the game, more reveals. (0:26:45) Al: There is a new map and there’s spinach. (0:26:50) Al: So I don’t hate spinach, but it’s (0:26:50) Kev: Do you like spinach, Al? (0:26:55) Al: something I would particularly choose. (0:26:58) Kev: So, I like- (0:26:58) Al: But if I was having a meal that had spinach, (0:26:59) Al: I’d be like, yeah, that’s fine. (0:27:01) Kev: Yeah. (0:27:02) Kev: I like, you know, baby spinach, the green leafy stuff. (0:27:05) Al: Yeah. (0:27:06) Kev: But, when you, like, book it too much and it turns that Popeye mushy stuff, uh, no, I can’t- (0:27:11) Al: Yeah, that’s part of the problem. (0:27:13) Al: You basically can’t cook it. (0:27:15) Al: You just need to mix it into your hot food (0:27:17) Kev: Yup. (0:27:18) Al: and otherwise it’s overcooked. (0:27:19) Kev: There’s… (0:27:20) Kev: …too much dang water in there. (0:27:22) Kev: Um… (0:27:24) Kev: Well, there you go. (0:27:26) Kev: Spinach fans rejoice. It’s incredible. (0:27:29) Al: Oh, you’re gonna love this. So I’ve just been looking through the other previews they’ve (0:27:34) Al: given us. So they are releasing with this game an ignition lock, a physical ignition (0:27:44) Al: that you can buy, and insert the key to turn on your tractor. (0:27:48) Kev: now we’re talking I like that forget controller support where’s my physical (0:27:50) Al: Oh dear. But that’s basically what it is. There you go, there’s a link you can (0:27:56) Kev: key and lock support oh that’s that’s uh (0:27:59) Al: look at, Kevin, this is quite something. So this comes with the collector’s edition (0:28:08) Al: of Farming Simulator 25. (0:28:10) Kev: oh my gosh this is great I love that this is genius always on the cutting edge um little farming (0:28:17) Al: I was on something, though I will say the collector’s edition in the UK is 60 pounds. (0:28:26) Al: So that’s not bad for coming with, you know, the physical ignition key, if that’s what (0:28:33) Al: you want. (0:28:35) Al: It comes with two keys as well, in case you lose one. (0:28:38) Al: There you go. (0:28:38) Kev: I definitely would so I appreciate that they’re thinking. (0:28:42) Al: I feel like my key would just sit in the ignition the whole time. (0:28:45) Al: I mean, it’s not like (0:28:47) Al: someone’s actually going to steal it. Since we wanted to ensure a quality product that’s not (0:28:53) Al: just functional, but also robust and reliable, our specialists sat down, designed and engineered (0:28:59) Al: it directly in-house. It is something, that’s for sure. And the last piece of update news (0:29:01) Kev: You look at that, look at that is expertise and it’s fine. (0:29:13) Al: for games is that Smishy Come Home, I’ve got a limited physical release. (0:29:17) Al: Which includes trading cards. (0:29:20) Kev: that’s interesting five there’s uh three of five there’s only five of them um it’s like one of (0:29:29) Kev: each biome um and then a nice one with art um five that’s okay I guess you know what all I care (0:29:38) Kev: is that that box art is beautiful I might not I won’t be getting right now under my circumstances (0:29:45) Kev: but that is beautiful and smooshie is a lovely um home (0:29:51) Kev: you know what I posey is a foul word but it that is actually cozy and enjoyable and lovely game (0:29:57) Kev: I highly recommend it to pretty much anyone it’s if you want a nice game to actually (0:30:04) Al: My issue is not with the word cosy, it’s with developers or publishers using the name, using the word. (0:30:12) Kev: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yes, yep, you know what, yeah, fair enough, yeah, so yeah, if you want (0:30:13) Al: I think it’s fine for people to describe a game they like as cosy, I don’t think it’s okay for developers to say “this is a cosy game” (0:30:25) Kev: a hug in a video game form, go play smooshy, smooshy, smooshy, smooshy. (0:30:30) Al: So we also have two new games that have been announced. One is called Herdling (0:30:36) Al: and this is the new game being published by Panic who do a bunch of stuff. They (0:30:46) Al: did Untitled Goose Game and Firewatch and they make the the Playdate, the little (0:30:53) Al: controller. They had a little games console with the Crank… yeah. (0:30:56) Kev: Wait all those guys did that it’s a wild array of things (0:31:00) Al: Yeah, it is. They are a wild array of people. Anyway, this game is being (0:31:06) Kev: Yep, I you know hats off to them they are not cowards, but they will go with the good teeth (0:31:13) Al: published by them. They’re not developing it, but obviously they’re not like a (0:31:18) Al: massive publisher, so they must see something in this game which immediately (0:31:22) Al: makes me interested. The blurb for this game is “Guide a Herd of mysterious (0:31:28) Al: creatures on a stirring and beautiful day. (0:31:30) Al: journey into the mountains and beyond, um, yeah, I mean, that’s exactly what it is, (0:31:37) Al: right? (0:31:38) Kev: Yep, I’m watching the trailer, and you are hurting. (0:31:38) Al: Like if you watch the video, you are guiding a herd of majestical creatures, I don’t… (0:31:44) Kev: They kind of look like full cow things, buffalo things. They’re hairies like yaks. (0:31:48) Al: Yeah, different sizes, different sizes and colours and stuff like that. (0:31:50) Kev: Um, it’s a pretty game. Yep. Some of them glow a little, twisty horns. (0:31:57) Al: Yeah. (0:31:58) Kev: It’s a very pretty game, very pretty world. (0:32:00) Al: And it looks like there’s some… puzzles? You do. (0:32:04) Kev: Take ’em on a boat, push things with your… (0:32:08) Kev: It’s a cool thing. (laughs) (0:32:10) Al: Yeah, do they have a name for these creatures? I’m not seeing any- Oh, here we go. (0:32:14) Al: Calicorns. (0:32:16) Kev: Okay, I’m down for. (0:32:21) Al: Yeah, no, this looks cool. They’ve not announced when it’s coming out. (0:32:25) Al: it’s on Steam, but they haven’t said what platforms it’s on. (0:32:33) Kev: It says, “An emotional wordless tale.” (0:32:35) Kev: Oh no, this game’s gonna hit me bad. (0:32:38) Al: They have said it’s coming to console, but they haven’t said what consoles, so. (0:32:38) Kev: It’s gonna do something to hurt me bad. (0:32:40) Kev: I can already see it. (0:32:47) Kev: Tell me to the play date. (0:32:48) Al: More information as it comes. (0:32:49) Al: I highly doubt it will come to the plate. (0:32:53) Kev: It’s exclusive. (0:32:55) Al: It’s a cool little console, but I don’t think it could cope with that game. (0:32:59) Al: And finally, we have Floetopia. (0:33:01) Al: Have you watched this trailer yet, Kevin? (0:33:02) Kev: Oh, no, let me see. Are you ready for my… (0:33:03) Al: Right. (0:33:04) Al: Okay. (0:33:05) Al: that you need to watch this trailer. (0:33:08) Al: Pause the episode, go watch this trailer, it’ll be in the show notes. (0:33:10) Al: Go, honestly, go watch the trailer before we talk about it. (0:33:15) Kev: okay listen with my library action let’s see first reaction there’s an ad so (0:33:22) Kev: give me a second one second almost there okay here we go oh the words ending (0:33:30) Kev: that’s nice (0:33:31) Al: Yeah, not ideal no ideal (0:33:33) Kev: with cute little should be people (0:33:37) Al: Yep, they’re running around trying not to die (0:33:38) Kev: there’s there’s somebody very nonchalant about it (0:33:42) Al: The end means I don’t need to go to work I mean fair (0:33:46) Kev: there I admire the hustle they’re saying the world’s ending so come live to the (0:33:53) Kev: cloud photopia people islands you definitely is yep you go from actual (0:33:56) Al: So, I mean, that’s quite a dramatic shift in tone there, right? (0:34:05) Kev: apocalypse with giant tornado in the background to happy joy music in the (0:34:10) Kev: clouds we’re just gonna ignore all the people who didn’t make it (0:34:14) Al: I think that’s a costume. (0:34:16) Kev: why are all these people animals well not all of them but (0:34:22) Al: I don’t think they’re actually animals. (0:34:23) Kev: they well I know dog person was digging like a dog I don’t know man somebody (0:34:30) Al: I wouldn’t be surprised if the costumes gave you abilities because they do talk about how you get superpowers and different characters can have different superpowers. So I suspect that might be what it’s from. (0:34:44) Kev: Mm-hmm. Okay, they’re sliding on a cloud now on a cloud mobile card (0:34:51) Kev: This is wild (0:34:53) Kev: What a way to start that trailer. I’m looking for more of it. Where’s the apocalypse? (0:34:54) Al: Yeah, like, I’m very intrigued. So, like, is that… My first thought is maybe that (0:35:03) Al: part is actually just the trailer for someone… Like, it doesn’t actually happen anywhere (0:35:06) Kev: Y’all definitely (0:35:10) Al: in game. I’m thinking someone in the game is trying to sell you to come to this place (0:35:15) Al: and they’re like, “Oh, real world is like the apocalypse, come here instead,” sort of (0:35:21) Al: thing or whether it actually happens and then that’s (0:35:22) Kev: It’s yeah, it’s just going to happen in like the opening cinematic and that’s it. (0:35:24) Al: just the setup for the game. (0:35:31) Al: Well, maybe, yeah, but that’s my question is does it actually (0:35:32) Kev: Oh, oh, I think it does happen. Oh, and then at the end, it’s all inside a snow globe. Okay. (0:35:33) Al: happen or does it not actually happen? (0:35:40) Al: Hmm. So there’s the other interesting question. What is (0:35:43) Al: happening here? Is this, what is this? And why are we, why did (0:35:44) Kev: I don’t know what’s happening here. (0:35:46) Al: we fly onto the moon? Why are we in amongst the stars? Like, is (0:35:50) Al: that something you can do that seems to be inside a carton (0:35:54) Al: of the snow globe on your desk? I need, I need to know more (0:36:00) Al: about this game. I will I will 100% be buying this game. (0:36:02) Kev: I need to know why the Gogotown people didn’t survive the-the-the-apocalypse. (0:36:08) Kev: Because it’s-it’s something, um, that feels like just an announcement trailer, right? So, (0:36:17) Kev: it’s all-I don’t think we actually saw any gameplay. Oh no, there’s a little bit there, minder bit. (0:36:22) Al: We can’t wait we saw limited gameplay (0:36:26) Kev: Yeah, because there’s a. (0:36:27) Al: Anyway, I’m very intrigued. I wouldn’t be surprised if this turns out to be just another farming sim (0:36:33) Al: But I’m a little or I guess it would probably be more like an animal crossing like rather than the farming sim (0:36:38) Kev: Yeah, yeah, go, go, Town Vayne, like I said, um, it uh, it, yeah, I wish they… (0:36:43) Al: Yeah, I don’t know cuz like (0:36:45) Al: Yeah, maybe maybe kind of like that (0:36:48) Al: Yeah, I don’t know, well, we’ll see, I’m intrigued, like they’re literally just (0:36:52) Al: announced this at Gamescom, and it’s coming to Steam and Consoles, but we don’t know when yet. (0:37:00) Kev: Who knows, I wish they’d lean into the apocalypse stuff. (0:37:03) Al: Oh, the website just started singing at me. (0:37:08) Kev: - That sounds right. (0:37:09) Al: Oh, no, I don’t know how to stop it. There we go, I’ve muted it. Right, let’s try that again. (0:37:14) Al: What were you saying? (0:37:16) Kev: Just, I wish it leaned to the apocalypse more, that’s all. (0:37:21) Kev: That’d be something. (0:37:22) Al: Yeah, yeah, yeah, we’ll see. (0:37:25) Al: Cool, so I think that’s all the news. (0:37:30) Al: Next we’re going to talk about Mika and the Witch’s Mountain. (0:37:34) Al: Just now that we’re starting this part of the episode, I need to put the disclosure (0:37:39) Al: out there again. (0:37:40) Al: We did receive one review code from GB Games, so that is what it is. (0:37:49) Al: our review of the game will not be affected. (0:37:52) Al: by that but that is something we need to tell you by law so a quick introduction to (0:37:52) Kev: Nope. (0:37:57) Kev: There you go. (0:38:02) Al: the game as Kevin joked early in the episode it is I have forgotten the name of the yeah (0:38:10) Kev: Studio Ghibli. (0:38:12) Al: no the film though yes Kiki’s Delivery Service it’s basically Kiki’s Delivery Service in (0:38:13) Kev: Sticky’s Delivery Service. (0:38:18) Kev: Sticky’s Delivery Service cross Wind Waker, because boy, that is a Wind Waker park style. (0:38:18) Al: in a game, right? (0:38:28) Al: Yeah, yeah very much so. So you are a little witch who has to deliver (0:38:29) Kev: They promised and they delivered. (0:38:35) Al: packages to people to get to the top of a mountain. And you honor a broom. (0:38:39) Kev: Yes, they’re paying you to get them in you can buy the broom that that’s how it works (0:38:44) Kev: It’s not as if they’re guarding their guarding your way to the mountain (0:38:48) Al: Yeah, I guess we’ll expand I guess a bit more on the broom later on. But yeah, that’s kind (0:38:48) Kev: You cannot pass until you deliver this (0:38:52) Kev: Fish to the captain (0:39:00) Al: of the summary of the game. I guess let’s start on quickly talk about the looks and (0:39:08) Al: the sound and stuff like that, because obviously, we’ve both talked about we like how this game (0:39:12) Al: looks before we’ve played it. But now we’ve actually played it. What do you think? (0:39:14) Kev: Still like how it looks! Shocker! (0:39:20) Al: Yeah, I just sometimes like, I mean, I don’t know how it runs on the switch, but it like (0:39:22) Kev: Yep. No. (0:39:24) Al: ran really well on my Steam Deck. I wasn’t seeing any issues. (0:39:26) Kev: Yeah, it was running fine. It was running fine on Switch. I didn’t see any big issues either. (0:39:31) Kev: Oh, I guess for context, Al has completed the game. I made it very far, but did not complete it as of yet. (0:39:38) Kev: But I very much enjoy the game. (0:39:44) Kev: It’s interesting how Chibi will shift art styles between different games set in the same universe or whatever, but it looks quite nice. (0:39:52) Al: Oh and and boy is this set in the universe the same universe they make it very clear (0:39:58) Al: this is set in the same universe. I counted I think four different characters in this game (0:40:04) Kev: I was like, yeah they namedrop Mara, they’ll do well, we’ll get into that in the story I guess, (0:40:13) Kev: but yeah, there’s plenty of familiar faces. Yeah, but no, I love the presentation, like it is very (0:40:21) Kev: much just, you know, imitate Wind Waker, but you know what, I really like the Wind Waker art style, (0:40:26) Kev: so that’s fine by me. They didn’t do a bad job of it, I’ll say that. (0:40:29) Al: Yeah. (0:40:32) Al: Yeah, yeah. (0:40:33) Al: And sound wise, I quite liked the sound design and the music and stuff like that. (0:40:34) Kev: Also, yep, it is, yep, and I agree. Also, I will give it problems for one more thing, so like I’ve (0:40:38) Al: It’s all all very nice as well put together, I think. (0:40:48) Kev: said, expressed before, that a lot of game companies are using Studio Ghibli-like or inspired or (0:40:56) Kev: whatever, it’s a phrase, and a lot of times they don’t quite deliver on that, but I think this one (0:41:01) Kev: actually did. It captured the spirit of Kiki’s delivery service. (0:41:04) Kev: Pretty well so much that the person who sells your books is just like Kiki. (0:41:10) Al: Yeah, that’s fun. I haven’t actually seen it yet, so… (0:41:10) Kev: Um, yeah. Oh, well, that’s the view of Ghibli. It’s charming. Um, yeah. (0:41:15) Al: I only know what people have told me. (0:41:19) Al: I have so far seen one Studio Ghibli film, but I do plan to watch the rest. (0:41:22) Kev: Wait, which one was it? (0:41:24) Al: The Boy and the Heron. (0:41:25) Kev: No, I’m not saying that, but I just looked up. All right. (0:41:28) Al: It’s good. It’s very good. And despite everything, I would highly (0:41:32) Al: recommend watching the dub, because the voice acting in the dub is (0:41:38) Al: Excellent. It’s very good. (0:41:40) Al: It’s not a lot of dubs are pretty half-hearted. This is very excellent. If you’ve ever won. (0:41:44) Kev: yeah the studio Ghibli dubs usually I think are pretty solid they get good (0:41:52) Kev: talent I got Billy crystal for us moving first castle oh really huh yeah oh well (0:41:57) Al: They have Robert Pattinson and the boy in the heron. (0:42:01) Al: He plays the heron. (0:42:04) Al: And he puts everything into that, like he’s not folding it in. (0:42:08) Al: It’s a very good performance. (0:42:11) Kev: He is a good actor, and I’m glad he put effort into it. (0:42:13) Al: Yeah. (0:42:16) Kev: Unfortunately, he was not here to voice the captain, or whatever, but overall, I loved (0:42:28) Kev: the presentation. (0:42:29) Kev: There’s a few things, like the chibigs, the Walmart, or whatever you want to call it, (0:42:37) Kev: of standard of slightly awkward English translations at times. (0:42:40) Al: Yes. (0:42:41) Kev: But in general, I didn’t have any problems with it. (0:42:48) Kev: And you have access to pretty much the whole map at the beginning. (0:42:52) Kev: You can fly around and see the different areas and stuff. (0:42:56) Al: Well, except the bits that you need to get to at the end. But yeah, they’re quite limited to the (0:42:58) Kev: Yeah, yeah, I said mostly. (0:43:00) Kev: Yeah. Yeah. (0:43:03) Al: extra bits. So yeah, it’s mostly you can access most of the game from the very start. And I guess (0:43:12) Al: let’s go into that. So we could talk about the flying and the brooms because you start off with (0:43:18) Al: a broken broom and you have to get it fixed and you have a fixed broom. And then of course, yeah, (0:43:22) Kev: Because, of course. (0:43:24) Al: Yeah, you have to do that. (0:43:26) Al: And then as you do more deliveries and you get more money, then your friend can upgrade your broom for you. (0:43:33) Al: And the broom does different things. (0:43:36) Al: It can act as though there’s like air currents, which your very first broom can’t use. (0:43:44) Al: You just kind of get pushed off to the side, whereas the second broom will let you use them. (0:43:46) Kev: Yeah, you know both horizontal and vertical so you can speed boost or rise yeah (0:43:50) Al: And then the later horizontal and vertical. (0:43:54) Al: Yeah. And then there’s. (0:43:56) Al: One that gives you this like extra air boosts that are hanging in the air that one of the brooms gives you access to. (0:43:59) Kev: Yeah, like the midair jump sort of thing (0:44:04) Al: And then the final broom there’s like a hurricane a tornado type thing not hurricane a tornado. (0:44:10) Al: On one level which you can only use if you have the final broom and that like boost you really high up in the air and that’s how you get to the top level. (0:44:17) Kev: Right. (0:44:19) Kev: Okay. (0:44:22) Al: So that’s obviously fine, it does the job. (0:44:26) Al: I will say, when I first played the game, I got very confused with the flying. (0:44:31) Al: I was expecting flying to be a bit different than it was, and this is probably a me problem. (0:44:37) Al: But I was… I don’t know why I was expecting this. You know, I’ve already talked to Johnny (0:44:43) Al: about this, and he definitely wasn’t expecting this. But I was expecting that you get on a broom (0:44:47) Al: and you can, like, fly up. You can’t fly up, basically. You’re always flying down. You can (0:44:52) Kev: Yeah. (0:44:54) Kev: Yep. (0:44:54) Al: have like if you’re close to ground. (0:44:56) Al: And you get like a little boost so you can like go up a little bit so you are actually (0:44:59) Al: above the ground. (0:45:00) Kev: Right, right, yeah, you don’t want one on the graph. (0:45:00) Al: But basically if you want to go up, you have to use the air streams or follow the land (0:45:04) Kev: Mm-hmm. (0:45:04) Al: and jump off a higher bit of land stuff like that. (0:45:06) Kev: Sure. (0:45:07) Al: And because of that, because of that’s how it works. (0:45:10) Al: Like you know how when you’re flying, you can have like two different control schemes. (0:45:14) Al: You either have like pull back, pulls you up and push forward, makes you go down. (0:45:20) Al: Or the way this was, which is when you can’t like control going up and down. (0:45:26) Al: Just control where you are. (0:45:28) Al: Like forward makes you go forward and back makes you go backwards. (0:45:32) Al: So like I was pulling backwards to go up and I was just turning round. (0:45:34) Kev: Mm hmm. Mm hmm. (0:45:35) Al: So it kept confusing me like that. (0:45:38) Al: And I suspect that’s mostly a me problem, expecting something different. (0:45:42) Al: And probably due to how much I played Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, where when you actually (0:45:46) Al: fly rather than glide, that is what it is, right? (0:45:49) Kev: Say. Yeah, yeah. (0:45:50) Al: You pull up to go up. (0:45:52) Al: So I got used to it, but yeah. (0:45:56) Al: Was a little bit kind of jarring at the (0:45:58) Kev: Sure, I didn’t have that expectation and like, I think the game, the presentation of you have, you know, a really basic broom or whatever like they’re clearly showing you’re going to be building up to it like it made sense to me. (0:46:13) Kev: But, I mean, regardless, regardless of that bit. I think the flying overall feels great. It feels exactly like how I wanted it to feel. (0:46:28) Kev: I had a demo some time ago and I was happy and they didn’t disappoint like everything else that they add to it. It all feels natural. It feels great. You can actually go pretty fast when you get the air currents and whatnot. (0:46:41) Kev: You can go far and it’s almost a sort of platforming at times, right? Because you’re trying to hit air currents or jump on islands and whatnot. (0:46:50) Kev: And I enjoyed it. Yea

He clearly lives in such a present place. I don't think the man is stressed out. I want to move to Ojai and do his routine. 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.  Welcome back to the Be It Till You See It interview recap where my co-host in life, Brad, and I are going to talk about the dream convo I had with Gay Hendricks, oh my god, in our last episode. If you haven't yet listened to that one, you are missing the fuck out. You are missing out. Brad Crowell 1:07  It's a great convo.Lesley Logan 1:09  Isn't that wonderful? Don't you just want to be friends with him? Brad Crowell 1:12  Okay, so if you don't know who Gay Hendricks is. He is a renowned author and psychotherapist. And he blew my mind when he said yeah, so I've written 51 books in the last 50 years. I was like what? That's insane. Fascinating, fascinating human. Sounds like the coolest guy. Lesley Logan 1:36  So cool. He loves his wife. Did you? You didn't watch it, did you? Brad Crowell 1:40  I did. Lesley Logan 1:41  You watched it? Did you see him tear up? He's like, she was gone for three days and just came back. I was like, my husband doesn't tear up when I return.Brad Crowell 1:50  What? What husband? Lesley Logan 1:51  Ah. Anyways, we're gonna get into that convo because I loved it so much. I am just, I can't even believe, I can't believe it happened. So today is August 1st 2024 and it's the beginning of National Wellness Month. About this month. In August, we celebrate National Wellness Month. Prioritizing your self-care managing stress and promoting healthy routines. Create wholesome habits in your lifestyle and focus on self-care to feel like your best self. We can often put our health and wellness on the backburner due to work deadlines, traffic, family obligations and other stressors. Research has shown self-care helps manage stress and promotes happiness. For a happy and healthy life, it's important to focus on wellness and self-care. National Wellness Month was born out of the idea that if we're going to do big things in the world—build our careers, raise a family further education, create new ideas and nurture our bodies—we must take care of ourselves. Brad Crowell 2:38  Got to do it. Lesley Logan 2:39  Hey, Brad, how do you take care of yourself?Brad Crowell 2:43  I eat well and I sleep occasionally. Lesley Logan 2:49  No, you sleep more than occasionally it's gotten a lot better. You used to like do a lot of all-nighters at least one a week and you don't do that anymore.Brad Crowell 2:55  Yeah, it's true. I don't do that anymore. Lesley Logan 2:57  Yet you also work out. Brad Crowell 2:59  Oh, yeah, I do that. I do workout actually more now than I have in, well, maybe there was one point when I was super diehard with my yoga practice where I was doing, like four or five times a week. But yeah, I mean, I'd say I'm pretty much moving every day intentionally, you know.Lesley Logan 3:19  You also cold plunge in the morning. Brad Crowell 3:21  Yeah, been cold plunging. I've been doing some sunlight in the AM.Lesley Logan 3:27  You do get your morning sunlight. You also do yoga almost once a week. Brad Crowell 3:31  Yeah. Also, you know, doing some vitamins through our supplements. AG1. You know, stuff like that. So it's been good. It's been actually more than I've ever done in my entire life. Lesley Logan 3:46  Yeah. And you didn't try to do all the things at the same time you like, added one in at a time.Brad Crowell 3:51  It's. That's exactly right. We all have heard you talk about your morning routine and self-care routine, but I must say the thing that I the most excited about is the cold plunging. And I'm sure you're excited about that, too. I know it's become a daily thing for you.Lesley Logan 4:07  I love the cold plunge. I never miss a day. I'm actually so bummed that I'm not going to have the cold plunge when I travel. Like that's the hardest thing is like, a cold shower is not the same. Brad Crowell 4:16  It's not. Lesley Logan 4:17  You can do it. But it's just it's a little torturous to be completely honest. Yeah. Yeah, I also love that I added my sauna blanket into my routine. It's more of a weekly thing, a couple times a week. And I made the mistake of going oh, I'm working out later this afternoon. So I'll sauna this morning. And I've been fasting like, Mindy Pelz fasting thing and nope, not a good idea to sauna blanket during the fasting window. I was like, oh my god, I'm famished. So, not great but, it was good intent. Good intentions. Well, you guys, we want to hear your self-care routine. So send them to us. We can share them with others because people need to know what are different ways of taking care of ourselves. Self-care is not a reward you do for being a good person in this world, it's part of your rights as being a human being who, just so you know, you're a much better person in this planet when you take care of yourself.Brad Crowell 5:11  It's true. That's why we encourage everyone to do Pilates. Lesley Logan 5:15  And speaking of Pilates, we're leaving in three days from today. So if you listen to us on a different day then, we might be already on the road for our summer tour, our sixth tour powered by Balanced Body. We are hitting 13 cities and so many are sold out. But there are some spots and some things we want to see you so go to opc.me/tour to snag your spot. Bring a friend who's probably curious, of course, come for the community, get the Pilates and win some prizes. It's a good time.Brad Crowell 5:43  Actually, a bunch of the classes are already sold out. But there's, there might still be some availability. So make sure you go check opc.me/tour 5000 miles over 16 days we're going to be ripping through and so come hang out. We actually love to meet all of our members in person, you know, or listeners in person, come hang out and come meet the pups. It's gonna be good time. Lesley Logan 6:07  Yeah. Also, my eLevate applications are open for 2025. It's my mentorship for teachers who've already been trained on the mat, reformer, tower and chair, then you can apply to be in my mentorship program. We really like dive in deep and nerd out and help you teach the body in front of you and like progress clients with confidence, but also, also get nerdy about your personal practice. It's a lot of fun. We've had so many grads and we have a ton of amazing people already signed up for 2025, space is super limited so if you're interested, you don't want to hesitate and wait to the last minute because I might not have any slots. And the next one won't be till 2026. So lesleylogan.co/elevate is where you can apply.Brad Crowell 6:51  Yeah. Okay, next up is one of my absolute favorite things to do. You've heard me talk about Cambodia before. We are going back in February, the end of February 2025. And we would love to have you join us it is an once in a lifetime opportunity. Seriously, the memories that you're gonna make from this experience you will tell everyone about it, you will brag about. It is a bucket list thing. We're gonna go to temples of Angkor, there are lots and lots of temples and we'll get to see a whole bunch of them, get to eat amazing food, meet some incredible people. You're gonna stay at our place, you know, in, you know, right in Siem Reap is the city that we're in. And then we get to do Pilates and all the things, so it is just amazing. Go to crowsnestretreats.com crowsnestretreats.com if the end of February 2025 works for you. And if it doesn't just go there and you know, add yourself to the waitlist for future retreats. Lesley Logan 7:45  Yes. And then, if you haven't yet tried the OPC, we want you to. OPC is our Online Pilates Classes membership where you come and just nerd out about Pilates and you get accountability to show up for yourself. Our classes are 30 minutes. Every week in our monthly classes you have access to the full month or 50 minutes, but you can finish as many minutes as you want because I do believe finishing is optional. And we have amazing teachers besides myself. Also, we made a change. So now you get access to each weekly class for two weeks. So when you log in, you'll see this week's class, you'll see last week's class. And so when you try OPC for 40 days for $40, so it's $1 a day, you're going to have access to several different classes to really enjoy and nerd out about in your body and also access to our members link community where you can get feedback on your form, and so much support. So go to opc.me/40.Brad Crowell 8:39  Yeah, do it. Next up, we got something new, we're making a few changes to a webinar I've been working on for a really long time, the Studio Growth Accelerator for Profitable Pilates. So if you are a fitness business owner and you've got a small business or medium-sized business and you're looking to figure out your money, and how to get more of it, and what all that means, join me on this accelerator. It's a free webinar. Free. So go to prfit.biz/accelerator, prfit.biz/accelerator that is profit without the O dot biz slash accelerator. And, you know, add yourself to to the list and then we'll let you know exactly when things are kicking off. And we'll be digging into money together. It's really exciting.Lesley Logan 9:33  Okay, before we get into, I can't wait to talk about Gay. I'm so excited. Before you do that we have an audience question. We have a listener question. So Brad, what is our question we're answering this?Brad Crowell 9:43  Okay, cool. Erin Donahue asked, 'Hey, what have you changed in your daily routine or way of thinking as a result of one of the guests' Be It Action Items?' By the way, I think it's perfectly timed with today being the beginning of National Wellness Month. Lesley Logan 9:58  Yeah, it's great timing.Brad Crowell 10:00  Yeah. What have changed in your daily routine or way of thinking as a result of one of your guests' Be It Action Items?Lesley Logan 10:06  There's a there have been some things that, I've done a lot and we've had so many, I mean, 400 episodes. So like, that's not all 200 interviews but like Brad Crowell 10:14  120 or 130. Lesley Logan 10:16  130 interviews. So it's 130 minimum. Brad Crowell 10:19  Probably 150 because we didn't start doing the third episode till partway through this. Lesley Logan 10:23  Yeah. And also, some people give us four Be It Action items, three. So there's been a lot that I'm like, oh, I love, I want to try that out. Or oh, I really love that one or oh, I don't need that one right now. But I know someone who does. I will say what changed my way of thinking is when Dai Manuel from episode 185 talked about 30 minutes is only 2% of your day. I had no idea that 30, how cool am I that I created OPC with 30 minutes, I'm only taking up two percent of your day. But it changed my way of thinking. And so now instead of like going (inaudible) time for that, I'm like, it's only 2% of my day, do I not have 2% of my day to dedicate to myself? You know what I mean? Like, it really changed my way of how I prioritize even just 30 minutes for myself, because my goodness, you got to have that in your day. It doesn't have to be all at once but that's really cool. I did do Kel Cal's, like, be it till you see it song several days in a row. And I have to say, because I would play it while I was cold plunging. And I think this is so fun. But I also kind of want like a different song all the time, which is making me research too much. And so obviously the overachiever in me is like, wearing its ugly head. So I got to tame that beast, but I really do. I really, I want to find a five-minute long song to be completely honest because then it's not ending while I'm in the cold plunge in it and like having to find a new song or repeat it. But that being said, that was a great one. I really liked that one. I think I changed my mindset around some mantras because of Nikole Mitchell. You know, like posts and things like that, like putting reminders up where I can see them because of her Be It Action Items. So which one? Can you think of any that you've added? Or changed your thinking?Brad Crowell 12:05  I mean, there's so many different things, but two that really jumped out for me over the years that have actually made an impact. One of them is Phil Barth actually saidLesley Logan 12:16  Oh my god, Phil Barth.Brad Crowell 12:18  Yeah. He said, (inaudible) he basically said, if you don't make room for your bucket list, you'll never do your bucket list. Okay? So I know, it's like one of those things we like, I'm gonna get to it someday, I'll eventually get to it. And I really loved where he's like, pushing you to put a date on that, a timeline on that. Because I thought, I still think that way. I'm like, someday I'll do that really cool thing. Like, I've always wanted to hike the Appalachian Trail. You know, that's a six-month thing. So I don't know how I'm going to just do that. But you know, when you, when you put that on your list, you got to figure out when am I going to do? How am I going to do it? Am I ever going to accomplish that? Otherwise, it'll just stay there. Another one that I really, I'm not very good at this. And this is something that is challenging for me. Joanne Johanna White said buy the shoes. Lesley Logan 13:14  You don't. You, I have to push you. I'm sitting over here almost buying a belt for a suitcase bag and you are like, I don't know, I've been in my car. Let me think about it. Three months later. I don't know. I'm like, those are never going on sale. They'll never do it. Just get the shoe.Brad Crowell 13:30  So yeah. You know, basically, whatever the thing is, that represents how you want to live your life and you know, that aspirational thing. It's time to put the money down and do it. You know, and I'm not very good at buying myself. Thanks. So, yeah, that's, I've just kind of always kept those things in the back of my mind. I mean, there's so many other amazing ones.Lesley Logan 13:53  I'm now wondering if we should do an episode of just like, Be It Action Items, like just take all all these Be It Action Items and just make episodes out of them because like, I feel like people need to re-hear them. Brad Crowell 14:05  Yeah, I mean, that'd be awesome. That's definitely something we should go back and and have a convo about. But, let's get to it. Let's talk about our guest, Mr. Gay Hendricks. So stick around. We'll be right back.Okay, now let's talk about Gay Hendricks. Gay Hendricks is a renowned author, psychologist and speaker known for his influential work in personal growth and relationships. He holds a PhD in counseling psychology and has authored over 50 books, including The Big Leap which explores overcoming personal limitations and achieving success. Also one of Lesley's favorite books. In his work, he emphasizes transforming one's perception of time, as discussed in his concept of Newtonian versus Einstein Time. Hendricks' teaching focuses on self-awareness, love and integration of body and mind therapies. He's also been married for 44 years, and he and his wife are both focused on similar things. And he was talking about how excited he was that he was able to work together. Lesley Logan 15:07  I know they are so precious, you guys have to follow them on Instagram. And they like do little lives together and like videos and she like, cook something and they're just so sweet and supportive. And they go, it's just wonderful. So they'll put a smile on your face always.Brad Crowell 15:22  Okay, first off, I just want to say, tell I ask, "When did you first find his book? And how many times have you listened to it now?" And tell us a story about bringing him on to the pod. Lesley Logan 15:34  I think I first heard about him in, I want to say it was in 2019, because I remember being driving the Tahoe on tour, listening to his book. Got it. So 2019 was when I was listening to the book the first time. I have listened to it seven times. It has been a book club book for Agency. We have, anytime someone's like, what's up? I'm like, that's the book.Brad Crowell 16:00  Yeah, I think we had, at one point we had a couple of copies of it here too. Lesley Logan 16:02  Yeah. They just keep getting given away. Which is fine. So it's the best and then how did I get him on the show? Okay. So I remember at the very beginning of this podcast, like I asked some big dream guests. I like I have like a lot of guts, I guess.Brad Crowell 16:18  Which we're talking more than 400 episodes ago. Lesley Logan 16:20  Yeah. Yeah. And he responded that nothing, no response. And I like DM-ed him and no response. And you know what's really funny? Here's the link, the podcast that I heard him on, I asked her, she didn't respond. A year later, I asked her she was like, I'm so in. And then for one year, her assistants dicked me around and canceled last minute, moved it around, and I, they're like, oh, we have to like reschedule again. I said, we're not rescheduling anymore. I'm withdrawing my invitation. And I was so disappointed because of just how she handled it just seemed like out of alignment with her values. But I was not done asking Gay I just needed like, I was likeBrad Crowell 16:59  So, with somebody else all together?Lesley Logan 17:01  Yes. Yeah. So Gay, it was like, I just I wasn't getting I wasn't going to the right avenue. I was like, maybe have to find his publisher, maybe I have to do this thing. So I just was really busy. And so occasionally, I would like tag his book and things and like, he wouldn't even respond to those. And that's not his fault. Like you guys. Like, that's not a slight against him. Most people don't respond when I tag them. So like, it's not a big deal. I don't respond when people tag me. So like, that wasn't a big deal. But Christmas of last year, I have been listening, you and I have been listening to like some sort of like self-help, like, thing with James Wedmore who's also a guest I will have on the show. And so I was listening to his like, seven days, or whatever it was. And I was like, I don't want to listen to any news. I want to stay in this positive mindset space. So I'm going to listen to Gay Hendricks' book again. And I was listening to it. And it was Christmas Day. And you were at your parents and I like was walking I like was being by myself in the hotel. And I got through like five chapters like in the morning. And so then I posted a selfie of myself saying I'm listening to this book, like the seventh time, if anyone knows how to get this man on the podcast, help a girl out. And he saw it. And he shared it. And he sent me the email of the person who gets on the pod. So timing is just everything guys, like, probably he was either busy writing a book or wasn't the one opening his DMs. I don't know, maybe he just never saw it because like, it's also the when the post that he made that day was the first one in months. So like it's just also possible and stories don't last more than 24 hours. So then like there's nothing to respond to. So at any rate, I think the timing was so perfect, because how cool he gets to be episode 400? Brad Crowell 18:38  Yeah, pretty, pretty rad. That is really amazing. Okay. Well, tell us about one thing he said that you loved.Lesley Logan 18:46  There was actually so many things. First, I didn't even know he wrote 51 books, you guys. I thought he had written the two that I love. So I'm like, wow, I should do some research. But he said most people don't know where their upper limit problems are located. They think it's problems are having externally rather than internally. But each of us has our own self-sabotage mechanism. And these start from childhood and they are the form of limiting beliefs.Brad Crowell 19:13  That was something very surprising to me. Like before you even realize that you're consciously compiling decision-making powers you're being imprinted by Lesley Logan 19:23  All the parents listening, you probably have, in all your best intentions, done some form of limiting Brad Crowell 19:29  You f* up your kids, god d* it. Lesley Logan 19:31  You f* them up. And you know, it's okay because your parents f* you up and you're all doing the best you can. And each generation you, hopefully f* them up a little bit less. But at any rate, like they're these limiting beliefs are things that we've, are ingrained. Like, you know, my mom was telling me some things that hurt like dad would say it and I'm like, oh my god, no wonder she doesn't think she can do X. He, like he, like the things he said were just who says it out loud?Brad Crowell 19:59  So I was listening, overheard that conversation.Lesley Logan 20:02  I mean, I'm just like, Oh my god. So. So I just think it's really, really I think what's cool about his book is it helps you understand your self-sabotage because you, you might not until you and he puts words to things that you're doing and actions you're taking. And you might not even be thinking that, like, I've told, I've told this story before, but my client who, whenever she would meet a guy she really, really liked to have an amazing date, she'd lose her voice for six months. You guys, this girl did not have a cold. Like, nothing happened to her. She just really liked this person. And then because she had, she would like self-sabotage by making herself lose her voice. So she couldn't possibly go on another date. And then she'd have to go through steroid treatments and all these things and like, vocal coaches, it was just crazy stuff. And I'm not saying like, you know, like, these are things we do. You know, we do this all the time when things go, well, we want vacation, we get sick. You know, so it's just very fascinating stuff. Um, that's just one of them. Self-reparations, another, there's a bunch. And I just thought they were so, so great. So his book really will help you understand all of them. He'll give you great examples. And I just, I'm fascinated. I'm fascinated by him. He also, you guys broke his femur. Brad Crowell 21:17  Oh, yeah, like recently. Lesley Logan 21:18  And he is doing just fine. Because he just looks at life with just so much curiosity and joy and excitement. He clearly lives in such a present place. I don't think the man is stressed out. I want to move to Ojai and do his routine.Brad Crowell 21:35  Well, I really was nerding out about this idea of Newton versus Einstein time. I know it's your favorite chapter in the book.Lesley Logan 21:42  But as I, you guys have to listen to the episode, because it wasn't always. Brad Crowell 21:47  It wasn't always but he, he also talked about it being one of his favorite chapters in the book. And he kind of explained a little bit about this. And I thought we should rehash this so we can kind of wrap our heads around it. Newton time, time is linear and mechanical. Lesley Logan 22:04  Or also known as Newtonian time. Brad Crowell 22:05  Newtonian time, it reflects a rigid, structured approach to time basically the way that we think of, I gotta be there, you know, I'm working from nine to five, okay, nine o'clock to five o'clock. So you're there, right? Period, that is Newtonian time. It is rigid, it has a structured approach. Whereas in Einstein, he said, time expands or contracts, depending on the quality of our experience. For example, what did you all just think when I said, nine to five? It's so long. But it's still just nine to five. It's the same nine to five. But our experience of having to be at the office from nine to five is like, ugh, right? So it feels like forever. I'm sure you've all had that experience, where you're like, whoa, what happened to today? It just went so fast. That is Einstein's approach to time, right? So he emphasized the importance of Lesley Logan 23:00  Well, Einstein's approach is that you could stretch, you can manipulate it. Like, it's not just that, like, the day goes so fast. It just is like, you can, in the book, he talks about how like, if you are constantly looking at your watch, I'm gonna be late, I'm gonna be late, I'm gonna be late, I'm, and you have no control over the train, and you have no control over these things. You are inevitably, what? Hitting every red light like Newtonian time, like when we stress out, like we hit all the red lights, and we're late, right? But when you just like sit back, relax, like James Wedmore talked about a story about how he was like doing a sales call. And it went long. And he looks at the clock, he's like, I'm never gonna make it to the airport. He was like, and he had to like return the rental car.Brad Crowell 23:38  I literally experienced that same story. Lesley Logan 23:40  And he was like, there's no other way but I'm gonna make this flight. And it's going to happen, and he just believed in it happening. And he eased in, he kept focusing on that. And he stretched time, you guys, he made it there it's not like the plane delayed, and that's why he made the flight. He just somehow made it there faster. Like everything opened up, all the doors opened up for it to be easier to get there. So that's Einstein time. Brad Crowell 24:04  I've had that same experience, like in the airport where we landed late, you know, from another flight. And then I had to go across the airport, which includes taking a tram. Right, and then I had to still go back through security. And yet somehow I made the flight. Lesley Logan 24:17  Yeah. Oh, I mean, I remember. Okay, so, Heathrow. I was on a plane and they were, the Heathrow Airport was making us circle the airport and the flight attendant came up, came up and she said, hey, they know you're here. You're checked in. But you're gonna need to run. And I was like, okay, no problem. You guys. I didn't just need to run, I had also take a bus and then run again. So the bus and I started doing little Newtonian time I started like checking the minutes. I just kept checking my watch because this bus was not coming like checking. I'm like, I'm not gonna make this fight. And then I was like, hold on. I have to make this fight. This flight is going to happen. And I was on the bus. And of course every plane is just wanting to drive in front of our bus and I see this girl and I, because everyone there is definitely going back to India and like, this is one blonde chick. And I was like, are you going to LA? And she said, yeah, I was like, (inaudible), like, we're gonna make this flight. We're making this flight. And we it's going to happen. And sure enough, you guys we ran, we had to go through security. But I was just like, we're making the flight, we're making this flight. And we, I don't know how we made that flight. But we made that flight. And they brought us wine and they gave us our own row. So it does work, you just have to believe in it.Brad Crowell 25:32  Well, so Einstein emphasized the importance of changing how we perceive time, encouraged noticing and altering complaints and limiting beliefs around time to start noticing when you're complaining about time, start noticing when you're complaining, or where you address other people about time. I guess when you were talking with Gay, one of the things he talked about was, "Oh, sorry. I don't have enough time for that conversation." Right? And that was the kind of approach that people are taking with Newtonian time as opposed to Einstein time. And he said, ultimately you own your time. And that's one of the things that Gay was talking about. You take responsibility for creating whatever way about time you want to create. But you have to do it in your own creative way. It's abstract. I'm not gonna lie. But, also, it's amazing that we've all probably inadvertently done this over the years.Lesley Logan 26:24  Oh, you guys, it feels like this random chapter should be its own book. And then it when you read the book again, and again, it makes more sense. When you listen to Gay and like why he put that in there, it will make more sense. So listen to the episode. And then also, like, just notice the intentionality of words. Like I don't have time for that meeting, as opposed to like, oh, I'm not able to commit to that right now. Do like one of those puts you in a more powerful place, and the other one puts you as a victim of your circumstances. Right? And so that can change how you perceive your abilities and your strengths. There's this one woman that I heard speak and she said, I never say, I can't afford that. Because that is telling the universe I don't have any money. That's telling me I don't have any money. She said, instead, I say, I'm not, I'm choosing not to spend money on that right now. And so it's just it's a different thing. And so, at the very least, just like, notice the power in your words, and your time, we've got control over it. It's kind of amazing. Brad Crowell 27:19  Well, speaking of time. Lesley Logan 27:21  We're taking too much. Brad Crowell 27:22  Stick around. We'll be right back. All right. So finally, let's talk about those Be It Action Items, what bold, executable, intrinsic or targeted action items can we take away from your convo with Gay Hendricks? He emphasized to get busy wondering about what your genius zone is. Now, I think the key is wondering, right, y'all to have this great conversation. Well, I wonder and you talked about your tattoo. But he said wondering is an underutilized human superpower. We, he said, we often we almost always go around looking for answers outside of ourselves, you know, very much like this podcast. But he said, what if you take a moment to look in internally, we're often asking gurus and teachers, but it's rare to actually just sit, set aside 10 seconds or 10 minutes, and then genuinely wonder about yourself, about it, the thing, whatever it is that you're working on, are focused on. And he said, here's a couple of key questions to ask, which I thought was really helpful. What do I most love to do? And what do I love to do that makes a contribution to other people? And I thought that was helpful because you know, what is wondering, right? What are we wondering about here? What are we actually trying to do? Lesley Logan 28:43  Yes. And in his book, his daily book, Your Big Leap Year, he has you do a lot of hmm.Brad Crowell 28:50  Oh, yeah?Lesley Logan 28:51  Yeah, humming, it actually does a thing in your brain that like opens up the wonder portals and then you say, hmm.Brad Crowell 29:01  Well, so remember, we're trying to find our zone of genius. So how do we get busy wondering about our zone of genius? So start by asking the questions what do I love? What do I most love to do? And then what do I most love to do that makes a contribution for other people and then give yourself time to actually wonder, be curious, think about it. Lesley Logan 29:22  And you could go hmm, what do I most love to do? What do I most love to do that makes a contribution other people?Brad Crowell 29:31  Hmm, what about you?Lesley Logan 29:32  Hmm, oh my gosh, okay, this was so great. This was just like I was eating this up. Our poor team, we didn't even stop for him to, we just went right into this. I was like, good luck guys getting those be it action items in there. Creativity is anything that has the capacity to surprise you. I'm like I just love it surprise you like we never get surprised anymore. No one wants to be surprised anymore. I don't.Brad Crowell 29:55  I do. Lesley Logan 29:55  Like you love it? Brad Crowell 29:56  Yeah, I like surprises. Lesley Logan 29:57  I get so nervous. So like I'm trying really hard. But he says make a commitment to getting more creative every day and opening up more of your genius, which starts with a commitment. So you have to start somewhere by making a stand and the more heartfelt you make your commitment, the faster it will manifest. So he advised you to get your head and your heart in alignment and working together because that gives you an unstoppable power to bring forth the things that are most important to you. Creativity is anything that has the capacity to surprise you. So a Be It Action Item is like, how could you be more creative in your day? What is something you could do? Could you, "Hmmmm, I wonder." Like going back to episode, how fun is this, episode one was all about going how does it get any better than this? Brad Crowell 30:43  How does it? Lesley Logan 30:44  Like that could be your ability to open. Brad Crowell 30:46  101, we're back to it. Lesley Logan 30:48  Yeah, the capacity to surprise you. So and I really liked this because you know, The Artist's Way is very big on like getting creative every day like journaling. So creativity can be just like Morning Pages, it can be taking a different route to work in the morning. And maybe you get creative with your outfits every day. Some of us like have a whole closet full of clothes, we don't wear like there's so many different ways you can get creative. Maybe you get creative with your lunches that you make for yourself, or the coffee that you, that you make, you know, maybe like, there's just so many different ways you can, you can be creative. So I love that. I love I just love this episode, and I'm just so happy. It's out into the world and it's in your ears. Please share it with as many people as possible. If you don't have to share this one you can share that interview one but like, please, please, please leave a review. And we're at episode 400. And you know, what I would love?

And that happens if every listener, if every single one of you shares with a friend who listens, boom, doubled. That's how it goes. It's that easy. You don't have to share with 10 people, one person. Brad Crowell 31:56  One person.Lesley Logan 31:57  So and you know what, you can get creative with it. And you can combine.Brad Crowell 32:01  You can wonder. Lesley Logan 32:02  You can wonder, hmm. Brad Crowell 32:03  How are we going to do this? Lesley Logan 32:04  I wonder who needs to hear this episode?

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  Welcome back to the Be It Till You See It interview recap where my co-host in life, Brad, and I are going to dive into the instrumental, life-changing, health-related, my life will never be the same because of this woman. Holy moly, this podcast has changed our lives, Brad. Brad Crowell 1:26  Yeah.Lesley Logan 1:27  changed our lives. This interview changed our lives. So I'm just gonna say that right now. And so you're gonna listen to this one. You're gonna hear all these amazing things. You'll listen that one that was back in time before I even like knew Michelle, and then you're gonna go do things to change your life because my life changed. Brad Crowell 1:47  That's true. Lesley Logan 1:43  I don't think I've ever said, I only have yet to say that my life has changed from an episode this much. Because while they're all amazing, this one really has tangible benefits and things have changed my life. So anyways, we'll get into that in just a second. Lesley Logan 1:56  Today, you guys, is July 11th 2024 and it is World Population Day. So about this day, World Population Day on July 11th is a holiday that's dedicated to focusing on the importance of population issues. The day was established by the United Nations as a result of the massive interest people had in Five Billion Day in 1987. Here's a crazy timeline. The World Population Day Timeline. 1804: First billion people. That's 1804. How do they even know there's a billion people? How did they do that? Because by the time they allBrad Crowell 2:27  It has to be an estimation. Lesley Logan 2:28  Right, because by the time they actually get to telling the place, there's more people. Anyways, 1927: Second billion. That's been a while. Lesley Logan 2:37  That's over 100 years took a while to hit to 1960s. Third billion people. So that.Brad Crowell 2:41  That's over a hundred years to hit two. Lesley Logan 2:42  Took a while. 1960: Third billion people.Brad Crowell 2:44  So that one cut down to less than just a little over 40 years, they added another bill.Lesley Logan 2:49  1989: A holiday is born. The United Nations recognizes July 11 as World Population Day. Well that's an annoying, that's a lame little timeline there, guys. Brad Crowell 2:59  They wanted to plug themselves. Lesley Logan 3:00  But then we skip the fourth and fifth billion we just go straight to the 6 billion, so.Brad Crowell 3:05  So, within 40 years later, it's year 2000, where it doubled from three to six billion people.Lesley Logan 3:11  Yeah. And then April 24th 2017, seven and a half billion on this day statistical models as the world population at seven. Okay, so we're not celebrating World Population Day on the same day, like sometimes they're just. Brad Crowell 3:23  No, no, these are just markers in the sand. Lesley Logan 3:25  But yeah, 7 billion would have been a marker. (Inaudible) Brad Crowell 3:28  Yeah, I don't know why they did 7.5. But they didn't have eight on there and I know we hit eight. So I went and looked it up. So, November 15th, 2022.Brad Crowell 3:33  There's eight billion people. Brad Crowell 3:37  Which is only 22 years after 6 billion. So, we're definitely growing as a species.Lesley Logan 3:43  Yeah. And you know, that means we all have to think about each other. So, there's a lot of shit going on. And people being assholes, about other people. And it's like, all this fear that people are dealing with. And you know what most people actually are just really nice people. And so please, please, please, when you wherever you vote in this world, think about your neighbor when you're voting not just yourself.Brad Crowell 4:04  Yeah, I mean, the reality is we have more, as of 2020, we've had more people forced to move out of their home of birth, like their country of birth, than ever in the history of our planet. And that was 2020. That's four years ago, there was an estimated almost 300 million people had, were moving around, right? Whether that is from climate change, or war, or whatever it is, I mean, the world is changing, shifting, growing. So, it's really important to understand that these things are happening.Lesley Logan 4:41  Yeah, so just like, you know, when you vote think about people, not just yourself, and like, we all try to live on the same planet together and it's possible. So anyways, that's my PSA.Brad Crowell 4:53  All right, here's what's coming up next. We are going to be on the road in less than a month we're going around the Midwest, we're going from Vegas up through Minnesota, over to Cleveland and back around through the Midwest, on our summer tour for OPC. Come join us for a Pilates class or a Pilates workshop where you get to really dig in. Come hang out with us. Come meet our dogs, come see this epic van. We are sponsored by Balanced Body. We are so fired up to be able to say that. That's incredible. opc.me/tour, opc.me/tourLesley Logan 5:24  Yeah. And then, as this is going on, the eLevate applications are open. Brad Crowell 5:29  Oh, yeah. Lesley Logan 5:31  I think you have a few days left to apply. So you'll want to go to Lesleylogan.co/elevateBrad Crowell 5:37  You got a few days left to apply with a big bonus.Lesley Logan 5:40  Yeah, yeah, that's true. That's true. That's true. But also, if it fills up, then that's it. (inaudible) So, yeah. So just like I wouldn't, I feel like I don't need a bonus, Les. I'm good. Like, that's fine. But there also might not be space. So, Lesleylogan.co/elevate.Brad Crowell 5:56  Yeah, that's your Pilates mentorship program. It's a nine-month program. Next up, we got retreats. Lesley and I go to Cambodia all the time, as you've heard us talk innumerable times in this podcast. But we've got a retreat coming up in February 2025. And we're going to be taking a group of people with us, we already have a bunch of people signed up. It's gonna be an amazing trip. There's room for more. And we want that to be you. Yeah.

And we'd love for you to join us and see what life is like, around the world go to crowsnestretreats.com.Lesley Logan 6:39  Yeah, and then finally, come to OPC with me, it is 40 days for $40. It's the best deal we've got. It's $1 a day to get some Pilates in your body and an incredible community. Oh my gosh, we're having the most fun now that we're not on Facebook, and we're in the app. And like, it's just so cool. Every single day there's someone in there having an aha moment trying to picture their pet, getting feedback on their form. And it's just and we also have a live class you can come to and we get to hang out and have happy hour or coffee or whatever time it is where you are. And so, it's just like literally people around the world come to class and take class together on that monthly live. So opc.me/40 is what you want to do. Before we get into, can't wait to like sing from the rooftops how my life has changed. But before I get into that, do we have an audience question to respond to? Brad Crowell 7:23  We sure do. Marianna Coaching & Wellness on YouTube asks regarding the Pilates exercise called the roll up? The real problem for me is that I'm a Pilates teacher since 2021. I used to train weights, too. And I think my abs are quite fit. I struggle a lot. And my legs always lift during the roll up. I'm starting to think it's my body's shape. I mean, maybe the shape of my spine lumbar curvature is quite deep. Or maybe it's just that I have glutes or I may, you know, my hip flexors. Like, what do you think? If you're watching on YouTube, you could already see Lesley shaking her head. Hey, Mariana, I can relate to this. I was not lifting weights when I met Lesley. And when I did the roll up, my legs would lift too. So this is, you're not alone. This is absolutely something that people go through. And what is it actually saying about your strength and flexibility and your body? Lesley?Lesley Logan 8:18  Well, without me seeing you do it, which, if you're an OPC member, I could actually, you could film yourself doing the roll up and I could see you do it. Without seeing you do it just based on what you said, I actually think that your back is tight, your hip flexors are over worked. And while your core is fit, your deep core muscles, there's a lot of them, are not firing because your hamstrings and glutes and inner thighs are too weak. Boom. I said it. I said it. Now, it doesn't mean that they're like, you don't have them. No, it's not me saying but your hip flexors are really strong. And so. Brad Crowell 8:45  It's out of balance. Lesley Logan 8:47  So, it's out of balance. And so everything has to be working together in a balanced way, which means nothing is overworking or under working. And so if your hip flexors are really strong what they're doing is they're pulling on your back. So, your back actually is tight, and it cannot round. And so I'd also want to know like what your rolling like a ball looks like and what your open like a rocker looks like. And so  Brad Crowell 9:05  It's true. That's what I was gonna say (inaudible). Lesley Logan 9:07  Yeah, Brad look at those ones, too. So I'm gonna say, if we're not gonna blame your body, we're not gonna blame your booty, I got, I got one, too, not gonna blame it because if we actually turn everything on, you can actually get up and over your butt. You just can't because also the butt doesn't even move the butt is supposed to stay where it is when you do the roll up. So my homework for you. Brad Crowell 9:25  Homework. Lesley Logan 9:25  Homework.Brad Crowell 9:26  Oh, shoot. Brad Crowell 9:26  For those who whose legs lift in the roll up is, single leg kicks on the mat, thigh stretch on the mat, shoulder bridge, not pushing your lower back up but making sure your tailbone is reaching toward your knees. Brad Crowell 9:38  Are your writing these down? Lesley Logan 9:38  Better write them down. Brad Crowell 9:39  Write them down. Lesley Logan 9:40  All of these are free tutorials on the OPC app. They're also on the mat flashcards. And then what I would suggest is that you are really making sure your (inaudible), we have a whole workshop on the (inaudible) on OPC, I want your (inaudible) on, I want your hamstrings and glutes to work which means on the roll up on the hardest part I want you to exhale, squeeze your butt and roll up. Brad Crowell 10:04  Do it.Lesley Logan 10:04  And if you use the mat with a strap like the Contrology mat that I have, we have an affiliate link for that. Grab it because the strap is not for beginners. The strap is for the more advanced. You get, and I just want to say one more thing, because I know Brad wants me to end, just because you've been a teacher for since 2021, do not put pressure on yourself. You should do the roll up by now. I've had clients who don't do the roll up for I mean, they still struggle with the roll up years later.Brad Crowell 10:24  Less than three years. Lesley Logan 10:25  Oh my god it's like not enough time. Like it just takes a long time. It's a hard exercise and in other training programs that's the beginner exercise because it's possible to do for a newbie, but it doesn't mean it's easy. So I just want to take that pressure off, babe. All right. Send your questions in to us guys, and we'll answer them here on the Be It Pod. Brad Crowell 10:41  All right, let's talk about Michele Wispelway. Michele is a seasoned healthcare executive with over 18 years of experience holding an MBA in healthcare management and co-founder and CEO of FemGevity. She also pioneered the first saliva-based COVID-19 PCR tests in the New York metro area. She advocates for women's health, emphasizing the importance of an integrative and preventative approach to perimenopausal and menopause. Her passion extends to creating a supportive ecosystem where women can openly discuss health issues, and access the necessary resources to live healthier lives.Lesley Logan 11:17  Oh my gosh, well, if you guys listen to the episode, you heard me like, I was sharing my frustrations with my experience. And we talked about how, especially in the U.S., but also we've had people here in the U.K., and it is really freaking hard if you're a woman to get your hormones tested. And then for that to be covered by insurance. And then for the things you need to be covered by insurance, it just is really difficult. It's mostly because they just don't do a lot of testing on women. So like people don't know, but a lot of people know a lot of stuff. And what we do know is that there's help out there, and you don't have to live this way. And so she would actually love for like doctors and annual test to make it much easier for women to get their hormones tested. I mean, we expressed this two years ago, when I tried to get my hormones tested from my annual physician's checkup, could not do that. My annual pap smear, could not get my hormones tested. So I guess, what I did guys, I actually worked with FemGevity and I got my hormones tested. We'll go into that in a little bit in a second. But like, there's just a lot of, first of all, if you are frustrated about how the system, especially in a western society in the US, like is hard to get the answers you need, and you're feeling a little crazy. There is help for you. And that is basically why they created what they created. Because like, they're like, there's help out there. And why are we preventing women from getting this help if they can live longer, healthier lives if they had it?Brad Crowell 12:38  Yeah. And I think it was interesting, you know, she, she talks about how to find a doctor. She said, a red flag for her is a doctor who only focuses on one thing. So the irony specialists that she's basically suggesting, you need more than just a specialist, you go to the specialist, after you've identified an issue that like the, the person who's looking at your entire body, can help you, okay, hey, there's actually an issue here, you really need to go see a specialist. But what we often have happen when we are doing health care, in the United States at least, is that you're talking to somebody who is only assessing a small portion or a small vision of your overall health, right? A small piece of your overall health and she said that's gonna go.Lesley Logan 13:23  Well and also like, if you have crappy insurance like we do, currently. Because we work for ourselves, we're working on getting better ones, but there's not a lot of options for us (inaudible) and so we're stuck with the options that we have that we can afford. And so we have to go to a GP who would be someone who does everything. And then they're the gatekeeper to the specialist. And Brad had an experience for the guys like, yeah, you want a referral for that? No problem. You want a referral for that? No problem. Here's, Brad was thrown referrals. And I was like, she's like, no, they can't test for that. No, they can't, like, with women it changes a lot, like, she was like, just like, I was like, do you not like me? Like, why, what is going on here? So at any rate, it can be very difficult to get the specialist that you do need once you have someone who's supposed to have general knowledge, because the general knowledge people don't know all the new stuff, because how can you like, I'm not here to knock, if you're GP listeners, I'm not here to knock that. Like, there's so much new things changing all the time, it'd be so hard to keep up with all that. So at any rate, it can be really frustrating. If you are frustrated. Stay tuned, I got some, I got some things that will take the frustration away from you. What did you love before we go into that?Brad Crowell 14:29  Okay, so actually, nothing to do with FemGevity or health or any of that it actually was failure. You know, Michele talked about being an entrepreneur, which I can relate to, she talked about how do you grow a business? And, you know, how did she become to get into this? Because you asked her like, how did you start from FemGevity? Right? And she said, well, you know, you have to be able to take risks. And because you know, which means you have to be able to fail. And we've talked about this before on the pod but the reality is failure will make you better. Even though it sucks, sometimes it's so scary because there could be a lot riding on a thing that you might be doing, right? And she talked about the decisions that you make as a small business, that could put your business at risk. But you have to be willing to take risks in order to grow. And you have to be willing to fail so that you can learn, and then bring something better to your clients that they will love even more and share that story with others. So I found it interesting where she was also talking about when you're starting to evaluate your health. There's failure there, too. Right? Lesley Logan 15:40  Yeah. Brad Crowell 15:40  You know, like the reality of testing your gut, like learning about the different foods, you know, you just got, you just got a whole bunch of results back. Lesley Logan 15:48  Yeah. Brad Crowell 15:48  And they said, Okay, you're totally allergic to this. and you're highly sensitive to these things. But you're only sort of somewhat sensitive to these other things over here. And then what does that actually mean? And they're like, well, sometimes you could eat it. But then other times, you shouldn't eat it. Lesley Logan 16:02  Or like, the, you might be able to eat it. And you might not notice how it makes you feel, but then you might actually feel awful. So like every (inaudible) that medium sensitive, it's like different for everyone. So it is, if you test it and you gotta get it wrong. And then you're like (inaudible).Brad Crowell 16:17  Because you're eating it. And you're like, oh, that was a mistake, I could tell right away, especially if you pull it out of your diet for, you know, six to eight weeks, and then you reintroduce it it'll be far more attuned to the failure. Lesley Logan 16:30  And also like, this is where the word feedback is a better replacement. Brad Crowell 16:34  Yes. Lesley Logan 16:34  And I think like, it's like, you win, or you learn, right? So if we all can change, failure to feedback, then really now I have more feedback on how I feel about things and I now have a lot more understanding of like, oh, no wonder I felt like crap that day. Oh, no wonder I threw up in South Korea. You guys at outside a restaurant, I had to run up the stairs.Brad Crowell 16:56  I had no idea. She was like, I gotta go. And then I heard the whole story later. Lesley Logan 16:59  Erika Quest had to hold my hair up as I vomited in the bushes outside the front door where everyone from Balanced Body was about to come out. I thought it was my gut. And I'm nope, nope, actually should not ever have mussels. And I had mussels, oysters and slightly sensitivity to scallops. And I had all three in a row. And my stomach was like, holy no, that's a no. So really, my stomach did its job and you should celebrate that. Yeah, she is, I really liked that we got to bring this up because I thought it was like really vulnerable. I mean, like, here she is. She's trying to do something so big with her company and medical rules and things and stuff like it's so hard and to make something that's accessible so of course there's a me failure involved and you learn from it. Brad Crowell 17:29  Yeah, love it. Lesley Logan 17:49  Okay, you guys, here we go. Brad Crowell 17:50  Okay.Lesley Logan 17:50   I'm so you. So, I fell in love with Michele it's like how are we not friends? And when we hit stop on the podcast, I was like, okay, how do I work with you? Because like I'm, I'm sold. And by the way, you guys we didn't get into some perimenopause symptoms in that episode that are like some sneaky ones that your shoulder stuff might not be a surgical thing you guys it could be perimenopause. So go, go get things checked. At least get baselines on stuff. So I asked her about how her company worked. I asked her like what we could do and now FemGevity is a sponsor of the pod and I have gone through their longevity plan. I'm still going through it because it is a what I love about them is like it's your it's not just like a one and done like It's like they're with you. And let me tell you how much they're with me. So they sent a phlebotomist. We need a longevity plan. So we have a link for a consultation call. It's beitpod.com/FemGevity and Brad Crowell 18:44  It's F-E-M Gevity G-E-V-I-T-Y.Lesley Logan 18:47  FemGevity. So when you, when you sign up for the longevity plan, they sent a phlebotomist to my house, which is so nice, because I'm so busy. I did, Brad was like not super excited for what we had to like, top off at a FedEx but I did, I did a stool test. They came to do blood and urine tests. And here's the thing about blood. They don't just do blood, they do serum. And so what is really, really key if you look at their Instagram, you'll see like why serum is so important. So.Brad Crowell 19:15  I'm laughing myself I'm like oh, yeah, that is serum. Like I know what that means. Lesley Logan 19:18  You're like not (inaudible). Brad Crowell 19:19  Oh, yeah, this is serum.Speaker 1 19:21  So, I got my blood tests back first within like a couple of weeks. And you guys I have been telling doctors for years. For years since I got my first test back from the guy who said you have no testosterone that I can detect. I said (inaudible) I have low testosterone (inaudible) no, 2016. That's how long ago. Brad Crowell 19:44  It's like almost 10 years (inaudible).Lesley Logan 19:45  And he told me I could get better testosterone in my body if I lifted weights so I was lifting heavy weights. I did all the things and like my testosterone was like just not becoming in the normal range. And over these years, again, like my last year's results, still not there and a lot of doctors, meanwhile, and they said, well, let's just wait and see because people don't want to put someone on testosterone if they don't need it, but like, what was happening is, I stopped feeling excited to work out. It was really hard for me to work out. I was, I work, some who goes to gym four days a week, and I was like, I was not able to pick up heavier weights. I was actually picking up lighter weights, like everything just felt hard in my body. And I was just getting really frustrated because I didn't have energy during the day, no energy during the day. And so anyways, when my test came back, and it said, my testosterone whas oh, surprise, surprise, oh, really low. And I described how my day felt she's like, yeah, babe, she's like, you do not have enough testosterone for you. And so then I also we went over, like how I was feeling in my cycle. I was like, I don't, I'm really frustrated. Because I'm, oh, I'm like, extreme, like, way too emotional before my cycle starts way like, to the point that like, I run a company and like, I don't want to be in my own meetings, because I don't want to be with me. Because me is not able to control her emotions the way that I want. Like, I feel like a crazy person trying to like control how I'm feeling. And then instead of it feeling better, when my cycle starts, it stayed emotional. And so my and she looked at my progesterone, she's like, Yeah, your professional results are saying the exact same thing. And so progesterone is supposed to be this really fun friend that comes in and just like makes you sleep really, really good. And I was not getting that. And so within two days, they sent me my prescription. It took a week for me to like feel a difference with the testosterone, which (inaudible). I am a new human and I think Brad can even test that I'm a new human. So anyways, I'm not saying that hormone therapy is what you need. What I am saying is I finally got doctors to listen to me and my blood test showed exactly how I was feeling so I was not crazy. My symptoms matched my test results. And I got a doctor I loved the the doctor you get with the telemedicine and she's phenomenal. I got a doctor who listened to me, encouraged me didn't make me feel crazy, like totally told me that there's going to be help and it's going to make me feel better. And then two weeks after that my sensitivity allergy test came back. And you guys I've been poisoning myself. So I've been poisoning myself. I am very sensitive to oats and been doing oat milk every day, sometimes twice a day and doing overnight oats and Brad Crowell 22:16  Loving those oat milk latte.Lesley Logan 22:17  Love, loving oak milk latte and we now make cashew milk, guys, we now make cashew milk. I also found out like what I'm highly sensitive to versus what I'm moderately sensitive to and what I'm allergic to which Brad and I discovered in April that I am allergic to mites like dust mites. Yup, yup. European and American, which explains why my nose runs when I'm in Europe. So, so anyways, like all that, I had all this information. And now I'm on a six-week journey of like trying to take all the things I'm sensitive to out of my life. I know tomatoes, tomatoes, garlic. Cherries are definitely out. But the strawberries and watermelon. Yep, there are two right now. So anyways, but here's the cool thing that the doctor explained to me is like some of these things might not be out forever, but they're out for right now until I like detox myself and then from them just by not doing them. And then in six, eight weeks, just given a test so I can see how I feel, just by doing it because maybe I just feel like not so great. And I'm like, whatever. It's a beautiful day, I want some strawberries, or I might feel like a complete bump on a log who doesn't want to move and then we know don't do it. But then you'll I'll be I'll make that decision for myself. And then just today before we got on this call, so I'm already feeling better. But I could tell I was feeling a bit better. The doctor is like, like, like going crazy and with joy because every time she sees me, I'm a even more energetic human of myself. She's like, because the first time she saw me, I like cried on the call. I was like I don't even I can't even tell you. I'm crying right now. I'm just crying because like, I'm just I don't have any more. There's nothing left of me right now. And you now and you're on this call. And ,and then then I buy when I saw her a few weeks later, just a few weeks later, I was already different person. And now here's a few more weeks later, and I am just like, okay, tell me what you got. What's going on? Like, I'm just like, I'm just so fired up about life. And my gut test came back and I, you guys, I was really stressing today because I was like, what if the gut test come back and there's nothing wrong, like they can't find anything. Like I was just like, oh my god, if they don't find anything, like I'm just a crazy person because I had so many doctors tell me I'm a crazy person for all the guts stuff I brought up before and for 15 years and she was like, okay, she's like, I'm just gonna be really honest. Your gut is got a lot going on. And we can fix it all. But this is probably one of the most the biggest cases I've seen I have a lot of lot of different things going on. And I was, explained to her what's going on with my bowel movements, what's going on with my gut how I felt in the day and on the test you can literally see okay, your bowel movements are like this because you have a parasite, Brad, I have a parasite. So already antibiotics are at the are waiting for me to pick up today. And then there's some other things that can be done with supplements. But what I am so excited about is in a few weeks, I'm going to feel like another better version of myself. And so I'm so excited ladies, I cannot stress enough, pick up the call and get on the phone with them. Just do it because here's the deal. I have spent years actively advocating for my health. It took me years actively advocating and you don't have to do yours to change your life. And I don't, to be it until you see it, you can have the best goals, the biggest passion, know your why, have all the strategies, have all the tools, and if your hormones or your gut are out of balance, it doesn't matter. It's really gonna be hard to be it till you see it.Brad Crowell 25:37  It's true. Yeah, especially just to maintain like consistency and be enthusiastic and excited. I mean, I can attest, I've seen a shift in your approach towards the day. So yeah.Speaker 1 25:51  The approach was, like, literally in a meeting, just like I'm like, oh, this is what we're gonna do. Like, it's just everything is just a lot more. Like, it just feels more possible. So beitpod.com/femgevity will get you a free consultation call. And that way you can meet with them, understand their plans, pick the one that's best for you. And look, here's the deal. Yes, we're paying out of like you pay out of pocket, but there's a lot of stuff that your insurance will cover if you have insurance and so, so it's kind of like going to another doctor is really what it is. But go check it out. Don't, don't turn yourself away right away. Brad Crowell 25:56  It's telehealth so. Lesley Logan 26:17  It's telehealth and honestly, like, I don't want to call the doctors off. I go to the doctor's office for my annual visit like pap smear and I just like, here we are sitting in a waiting room, you know, it is like so annoying. You just can't do that. I guess you can't do that on telemedicine. But you know, it's really nice what you can do and so, especially for my busy women listening, you are not too busy for this to work for you. Because they made it so easy for me. So I will also be going live I will have gone live with them. By the time this comes out. I go live with them on July 9, which is when their episode comes out. So, so, anyways, you can go see us talk on there if you want but use the link to get the free call.Brad Crowell 27:04  Okay, finally, let's talk about those be it action items what bold, executable, intrinsic or targeted action items can we take away from your convo with Michele Wispelway? She said, we have choices here we have three distinct choices in life, these are your options, you either accept the thing, you change the thing, or you leave the thing. And we need to pick our own path, whatever the situation might be, whether it's a fight with your partner, or whether you're having health issues, you have to be very clear which one of those three things you're going to choose, accept it, change it, or leave it, right? And these are like rocks in your life. These three things are what you need to, remember this, we have a decision that we can make about all the things except to change it or leave it. Lesley Logan 27:49  Yeah, I love that. So, so simple, but hard. Yeah. Okay, so.Brad Crowell 27:55  What about you? Lesley Logan 27:55  Of course here we're going to talk about her Be It Action Items, she's stressed encouraging you look for doctors that are not just spot treating, we already talked about this, but this is your Be It Action Item. Is your doctor just spot-treating? Is your doctor not doing holistic testing? So if you have a doctor and you want to see like, will they do blood, stool and gut sensitivity testing all at once, because that should be what you're getting. Like you do a whole panel, and not just like a top thing it's like the whole panel, get it all. And if you and she said if your doctor doesn't, you should find another doctor. And I know that's really hard. I know we're really busy. But this is your health guys. And the US health system specific I can't speak to other ones does not do preventative well, it does, it treats you when you're sick, but doesn't want to do preventative. And there is information out there that if we have information early on, we can do preventative things to make your life better. And so that requires us to advocate for ourselves that requires us to like be on like aware of that and to be making actions for that. So she wants you to make sure that your doctors are going to do a complete full testing and if they're not find a new one. And you can also go to beitpod.com/femgevity for that. Brad Crowell 27:55  I love it. Well, hey, I'm really excited that we randomly connected with with this. Lesley Logan 29:10  They approached us and then I fell in love with her. And I fall in love with her doctor and they have their, I'm a client for life. They're stuck with me. Brad Crowell 29:18  Yeah, I think it's amazing. And thank you for being a listener here at the Be It Pod. We wouldn't do this if you didn't listen. So thanks for doing that.Lesley Logan 29:27  And did you notice this episode 392. So episode 400 is coming up and we have a very, very, very special guest. I might be as excited for that recap as I'm excited for this one. Now that I've said that I wasn't before now I am. And so make sure you take a look and send this to a friend if you've got a woman in your life who's struggling with some stuff with their health, send this to them because they feel crazy. They feel alone. They feel like they, they feel like they, like it's all in their head. They feel like no one will listen to them and like they need to know. Brad Crowell 29:27  When they did finally step out to get some test results. They were told they're fine. Lesley Logan 30:02  Yeah. Or they're told they have IBS. And I do, like, and you might, but also you probably don't, you probably just have some parasites and some gut digestive enzymes that need to be sorted out there. And so please, please, please send this to the friends you have who are struggling with perimenopause where they think they have perimenopause. Or they're struggling with any gut stuff. I need them to know. It's important that they know they're not alone. And it's really freaking hard to be the best version of yourself when you feel like shit. So this is this is my other PSA, listen to this and take some action towards your health because you are amazing. Thank you so much for listening.

Aiko silently questioned herself, "Am I really being useful?"Ja: 途中、ハルトは床に奇妙な模様を見つけました。「これはパズルの一部かも！」彼は興奮気味に言いました。En: Along the way, Haruto noticed strange patterns on the floor.

Paul is joined by Paolo, one his best friends, to compare notes on a big tour of Cambodia and Vietnam (Paul flew to Cambodia, Paolo flew to Vietnam and Cambodia) with many airports, and airlines along the way (not sure about the water on-board a Cambodia Angkor Air). Paul had his worst fly ever (it was no fault of Etihad, just his own!!) and circles the 380 lounge table forever like an animal, whilst Paolo has the most epic security check experience at Sihanouk International Airport (he's a giant, after all). Cambodia is building huge airports, the future Phnom Penh (still in construction), and the just-opened massive Siem Reap International which we both were pretty staggered with. Are turbulences getting worse, and should the pilot give more explanation when we hit them (Paolo compares them as being rock cradled to sleep in business class!). Does landing at SGN remind you a little of Kai Tak ("dodging the washing lines across the apartments"). Paul and Paolo disagree on BKK, but, yeah, a bit of window cleaning would be good (but the Thai government agrees with Paul, it needs a refurb!). Do you really want to board a Wamos Air?
