If you have followed recent activations and the meditations on my channel I have focused on a new and powerful concept that transcends quantum jumping. We are learning to access our future self from another timeline and accessing their intelligence as they essentially become a walk in and create a total identity shift. I have to report the most profound results of any technique ever as I have explored this with my clients. Many of you have tried this activaiton or meditation. You've experienced the identity shift. The future self walk-in has occurred. But now you're discovering that with great power comes great responsibility to learn how to use it. If this is your first time with me, Iwork with the concept that your future self—the version of you living your optimal timeline—can merge with your current identity through advanced consciousness techniques. This is the next evolution of human potential. The emergence of abilities that were always latent within the structure of consciousness itself. Your future self didn't just merge with you and disappear like some cosmic one-night stand. They're still there. Present. Active. Continuously guiding you through frequencies, sensations, and quantum information streams that your consciousness receives every moment of every day. Most people who experience transformation—whether through meditation, plant medicine, near-death experiences, or consciousness work—report the same phenomenon. They return to their ordinary life with expanded awareness, but they struggle to integrate that expansion into practical decision-making. They have access to higher wisdom, but they don't know how to consistently tap into it when they need it most. Without proper navigation, you become like someone with a smartphone who only uses it to make phone calls. You have access to infinite information, but you're only using a fraction of the available functions. Today we're upgrading your internal GPS. We're teaching you to receive, interpret, and act on the constant guidance flowing from your optimal timeline. You're going to learn to read the quantum information streams that your future self broadcasts every second of every day. By the end of this session, you'll have a functioning navigation system that turns decision-making from guesswork into precision. You'll stop wondering whether you're making the right choice and start knowing it with unshakeable certainty. This is your user manual for operating at your highest potential. 

The concept of investing is often associated only with money and the pursuit of wealth, but this fails to capture the true essence of investing. An ideal future isn't encapsulated by a stack of $100 bills. The true essence of investing is not about building wealth, but about building the atmospheric conditions that align with your ideal future self. Listen to the latest episode of the podcast to learn why a relentless focus on accumulating wealth will end up costing you what you're actually working for, and why you need to have a more encompassing vision for what your retirement can be beyond your portfolio. Your quality of life isn't determined just by the number in your bank account. Those dollars are merely the resources you use to create the ideal life. Wealth extends beyond the mere accumulation of money. It's about the life you can construct around it and the atmospheric conditions you can create for yourself. You can possess all the wealth in the world, but without the cornerstones of a healthy life like thriving relationships, health, purpose and meaning, the value of that wealth diminishes. We need to exercise caution in our perception of wealth and the significance we ascribe to money. Investing shouldn't only mean contributing to your financial future but should be considered building towards your ideal future. Having a vision for your retirement that involves activities and people requires a keen understanding of what's important. Brian had a client who embodied the rags to riches narrative that people in the West admire so much, but after years of diligently working toward accumulating his wealth, this client ended up sacrificing his health. Instead of traveling the world and enjoying the fruits of his labor, this client spent his golden years visiting doctors and hospitals. “Man sacrifices his health to make money, then he sacrifices his money to recuperate his health.” -Dalai Lama A healthy lifestyle lays the foundation for our capacity to live fully and pursue our ambitions actively. The importance of investing in health can not be overstated. Along with health, investing into your relationships is paramount. Relationships form an integral part of our support system. The rewards are not always monetary, but they are no less important, and investing time into relationships is crucial. Investing into a steady flow of income beyond just building a portfolio is another key component to enjoying your retirement. Growth is not income generating and growth is not the same as income. Retirement needs to be a time of shifting from a diversification of growth assets into a diversification of income producing assets. The true essence of investing is not about building wealth, but about building the atmospheric conditions that aligns with your ideal future self. That includes nurturing your health, cultivating meaningful relationships, ensuring a steady income, and fostering cognitive ability. Money is a tool to reach those goals, and not the goal itself. Retirement should be seen as a chapter in your life that is ripe with potential. True wealth is not just the abundance of money, but the presence of all the components that make life fulfilling.     Mentioned in this episode: BrianSkrobonja.com BuildBanking.com Previous episode - Make Health Planning Part of Your Retirement Planning, with Regan Archibald     Securities offered only by duly registered individuals through Madison Avenue Securities, LLC.

Your greatest creative work already exists. Right now, in your optimal timeline, the masterpiece you were born to create has been completed. The innovation that will revolutionize your field has been perfected. The artistic expression that will move millions of souls has been brought into full manifestation by the version of yourself who has actualized your complete creative potential. Creative genius is not the ability to pull something magnificent from nothing through raw talent and relentless effort. Creative genius is the capacity to access and channel creative intelligence that already exists in a state of completion beyond the limitations of linear time and individual consciousness. Throughout history, every breakthrough artist, inventor, and visionary has reported the same phenomenon: their greatest works came through them rather than from them. They felt like vessels receiving transmission from a source of intelligence far greater than their individual creative capacity.Mozart described hearing complete symphonies in his mind as if a cosmic orchestra were performing them in another dimension. He didn't compose music so much as transcribe what he heard playing in the field of infinite musical possibility. Tesla could see his inventions operating perfectly in his imagination before he built them, testing and refining them in a mental laboratory that existed beyond physical constraints. Einstein discovered that his most profound insights arrived not through mathematical calculation but through what he called "combinatory play" - a state of receptive consciousness where breakthrough understanding could emerge fully formed. He understood that genius thinking operates according to principles completely different from ordinary analytical reasoning. These masters weren't superhuman. They had simply learned to access a level of creative intelligence that exists beyond individual consciousness. They discovered how to receive completed works from what we now understand as their optimal creative timeline. This represents a fundamental paradigm shift in how we understand the creative process. Instead of seeing creation as the struggle to generate something from nothing, we begin to recognize creation as the art of remembering what already exists in a state of completion in the quantum field of infinite possibility.

AI-Redesign Can Spark MotivationUsing AI to rework your job—not replace it—can zap those boring, soul-sucking tasks and revive your work vibe. Diane Hamilton explains how AI can automate admin grunt work, letting you focus on meaningful challenges, boosting motivation, giving clearer goals, and making time feel like it actually counts again. Trade Jobs Are AI-Proof—Mike Rowe's Warning for AmericaMike Rowe—yes, the Dirty Jobs guy—says AI's coming for coders, but skilled trades are safe. Think welders, plumbers, steamfitters, pipefitters, electricians: robots can't handle that hands-on grit. Plus, with half a million construction roles needed this year, these are the careers that matter—and will outlast AI. AI Will Create New Jobs—Yes, ReallyAI's rollout might cost some roles, but it's also birthing fresh ones—think AI trainers, quality-checkers, and data specialists. Job listings for AI-focused roles more than doubled from 2023 to 2024, and 2025's additions signal a boom—despite doom-and-gloom headlines. Historical tech trends suggest this shift often creates more opportunities than it destroys. The Age of Self‑Evolving AI Is Here—and It's Shaping the FutureSelf‑evolving AI refers to systems that adapt, learn, and improve themselves on the fly—without human updates. They use long‑term memory, multi‑agent collaboration, and self‑correction loops to evolve during inference. Promising tech for personalization, cybersecurity, and discovery—but ethical guardrails and complexity control are needed fast.Netflix Drops Gen‑AI VFX in ‘El Eternauta'—Hollywood's FirstNetflix just flexed some next‑level tech: a building‑collapse VFX in its Argentinian sci‑fi series El Eternauta was generated with AI—10× faster and cheaper than classic methods. Co‑CEO Ted Sarandos says it's a creative helper, not a human replacer. This marks the first time Netflix put generative AI on screen—Hollywood's watching. AI Reminds Us That Connection Is What We're Really AfterBonnie Jean Feldkamp shares how AI tools (like transcription apps) can speed up tasks, but when it comes to real storytelling—covering disasters or interviewing scientists—it still takes human empathy, nuance, and presence. AI helps, but it can't replace the emotional connection at the heart of meaningful stories.

It's ask yourself very clearly, like, why haven't I done this? What has been in the way? Is this actually something I still want to do? Can I actually do it and then set new measurable goals, set new milestones and make it happen. Lesley Logan 0:14  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 0:53  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 purposeful convo I had with Wendee Close in our last episode. If you haven't yet listened to that interview, feel free to listen to that one first, then come back and listen to this one, or listen to this one and see if you agree with what we liked about that one. It's your choice. That's what's really important about the Be It Till You See It podcast, you choose. You choose how you want to listen. Today is July 17th. Brad Crowell 1:22  You choose very closely. Lesley Logan 1:23  Yeah, I hope you like that, Wendee. I'm sure she hasn't heard that before. It's like, my mom's last name growing up was Friesen, and like, she was super tall, so they would always go, how is the weather up there? Is it Friesen? Right, like, wow. I know kids are clever and cruel. Anyways, that's, I don't know why that popped in my head. Welcome to ADHD. So today is July 17th 2025 and it's National Tattoo Day. It was also another day, but obviously I have to pick this one, tattooing, the art of inserting pigment under the dermis layer of the skin. Brad Crowell 2:00  In case you didn't know. Lesley Logan 2:01  To create a decorative, symbolic or pictorial design or just a sticker on your body, permanent sticker on your body. Brad Crowell 2:01  Permanent sticker on your body. Lesley Logan 2:06  How I like to think of it. And on National Tattoo Day, July 17th, we set time aside to learn more about the tattooing process. It's a societal importance and history. Okay, here we go.Brad Crowell 2:17  I didn't know that. I'm in on societal importance. Lesley Logan 2:20  You guys, in case you don't understand the process of picking which day, it really is like what title speaks to us, and then we learn about the day as we read about it with you on air, and that someday could become problematic, but we'll edit it out then I guess you'll never know. So if you don't have a tattoo, you likely, or you're likely, to know someone who does. And if you've asked them how they knew at the time when they were getting inked whether they would still want that design on their skin years or decades later, you may have just gotten a peculiar look instead of an explanation. There is a certainly a fraternal connection between people who bear tattoos, a connection that those without ink can never really understand. We asked one correspondent to try address this phenomenon. He said, tattoos began as a ceremony, and they're still kind of like that. Once you're in an artist's needle, it's like a little it's a little like a religious experience. It's like the aha moment people talk about having in a business life. It illuminates something you didn't see before. I don't understand any of that. That doesn't resonate with me in any. Brad Crowell 3:15  Yeah, me neither. Lesley Logan 3:16  So first of all, I overthought my first tattoo, way too much. Brad Crowell 3:20  I mean, took me 15 years to get my first tattoo, because of the same thing. Lesley Logan 3:25  15 years from when you're 18 or like?Brad Crowell 3:29  Yeah, yeah, I didn't get one. So I guess that's not true. I wanted to get a tattoo in my teens. My parents said no, but I started designing it in my teens. Lesley Logan 3:38  Okay, okay. Brad Crowell 3:39  And then I didn't actually get one until 30 years old.Lesley Logan 3:45  Yeah, I got my first one on a blind date.Brad Crowell 3:48  You got one on a blind date? Lesley Logan 3:50  Yeah, we wanted something to do. Brad Crowell 3:52  Wow. Lesley Logan 3:53  I know. Brad Crowell 3:53  This is the first time I'm hearing this story, y'all. Do tell. Lesley Logan 3:57  Anyways. Brad Crowell 3:58  How'd that go? Lesley Logan 3:59  I never saw that person again. And I covered up that tattoo after I left my ex with the cherry blossoms that we then added on to, and then I just got others. Because once you get the first one, you kind of start to just get other ones and.Brad Crowell 4:21  Well, the hurdle has been left, you know, like, you're, you're, there's this weird mental block of like, I don't know if I want to keep that thing on my body forever. And then after, after you get your first one, you realize no one actually gives a shit. And then also you're like yeah, you know.Lesley Logan 4:38  We speaking on podcast or proponents for tattoos? Brad Crowell 4:39  Yeah, I'm not. I'm not that worried about it either. Because here's the other thing, you can also change the tattoo or you can cover the tattoo or you can remove the tattoo.Lesley Logan 4:50  Or you can remove it. Keith Davidson removed all of his tattoos. He is a complete blank slate. Google it right now. Brad Crowell 4:55  No way. Lesley Logan 4:56  Google it right now, because I thought for sure, it's AI and people were saying it's AI, and he has done actual interviews about it, and he there's no way it's makeup. He has, he spent $200,000 getting them all removed. And I thought that's all it costs to cover remove his entire body. Brad Crowell 5:12  I mean, he had a he had. Lesley Logan 5:13  His whole head to toe, like he was so covered. So anyways, our neighbor is shout out to Brieanna, Viva Vanish skincare, she actually removes tattoos. So like, to me, you could just remove it, right? Or you could cover it up, but you, you, you do overthink the first ones, and then you kind of just get them, and they just become part of you. Also, I've gotten, like, my dream catcher, my dream catcher tattoo. It is really funny. When I got it. Remember this, Brad, I got the dream catcher tattoo. It takes up my whole fucking arm. We came back from Cambodia.Brad Crowell 5:48  Upper arm, shoulder down to elbow. Lesley Logan 5:49  Yeah, shoulder to my elbow. We come back from Cambodia and, like, literally, no one notices. Like, no one notices. And I'm starting to think that like it, people don't like it, you know, and all this stuff. And so I'm, like, starting to make this through my head, and then someone who I've never met in person, they only know me through social media. I was at an event, and they're like, oh my god, is that a new tattoo? And I said, it is. Thank you. I just got it, I just got it right. And other people are like, that's new. And I'm like, yeah, there are people who, like, have known me for years, and I'm like, they're like, well, you're just, like, a person with tattoos. You just have tattoos. So anyways, all I had to say is, you know, I saw a reel or a meme. It was just like, tattoos are just stickers for adults. And, like, we like pretty things.Brad Crowell 6:32  I'm in on that. And I was looking up the Pete Davidson thing still, and I found something really interesting. He did an interview with Variety, why he decided to remove all of his tattoos, and apparently he's not removed every single one, but he's removed the majority. He said, on deciding to remove his tattoos, I used to be a drug addict and I was a sad person, and I felt ugly and that I needed to be covered up, and I didn't. And I don't think there's anything wrong with tattoos, but mine, when I look at them, I remember a sad person that was very unsure, so just removing them and starting fresh, because that's what I think works best for me with my brain. When I look at them in the mirror, I don't want the reminder of, oh yeah, you were a fucking drug addict. Like, that's why you have a Sponge Bob smoking a joint on your back. So good for him. Lesley Logan 7:18  Oh, I love that. But see, that's the thing. You can just remove it. So, you know.Brad Crowell 7:22  I mean, it's a process, but it can be removed. It's money and time, yeah. Lesley Logan 7:26  You know what? There's a lot of things you could spend your money on. I, don't get something you don't want. But also like. You. Brad Crowell 7:33  I like, I mean there's definitely sentimentality around the tattoos that that I have, have put thought into them. It hasn't been just like, on a whim, but also, too, the more like, as you get after you get your first one, the second one, the decision to get it was, like, much faster than the first one. Lesley Logan 7:52  Well, I also just want to say, like, you don't have to get them, and it's also fine if you get them and don't over, like, don't overthink it so much because it, because you kind of make it perfect and, like, you're trying to get all perfect. And it's, it's, like, it's, there's no judgment either way, like, you're gonna, life will go on. Brad Crowell 8:10  Well, we are very big proponents of ink and tattoos. We think they're really fun and cool. Lesley Logan 8:15  If it's part of your personality, like, and also, like, I don't, I don't think I remember my parents saying, you like, oh, you're gonna be so judged. You'll never get a job, like, that has never happened to me one time, and I have tattoos all over my hands and like, no one notices. Brad Crowell 8:17  Yeah, yeah. Lesley Logan 8:17  You know. So most of them are for me anyways, because when I have to look at myself in the mirror all the time, and I have to, like, look at what I do, like, or on a camera live all the time, and I'm like, I just want something to look at that's not just my family. Just my face. Like, I'm so tired of looking at my own face, I would like to see something else. So that was really a lot of it for me. Anyways. Brad Crowell 8:50  Anyways. Lesley Logan 8:52  Back to this podcast (inaudible) coming up. So, today we actually kick off Agency Mini 11. That's happening right now. Brad Crowell 9:01  Right now. Right now. If you'd have no idea what that means, and you were like, I need in on this, go to prfit.biz/mini. That's profit without the O dot biz slash mini. Lesley Logan 9:10  It's for Pilates instructors and fitness instructors who want to improve their business and attract clients that actually want to teach and make the money they want to make. So that sounds like you. You do want to sign up for this because the next one with our calendar, if it's possible being Q1 of next year.Brad Crowell 9:25  Yeah, we're, we've been literally, like, tentatively looking at February. Lesley Logan 9:25  Yeah and it could be the end of February. Brad Crowell 9:30  So it's not, we're not doing another one, we're not doing another one this year. And, and honestly, it's a killer program. So, and it's also not expensive, you should definitely do it.Lesley Logan 9:40  62.50 sign up today. Three days. First couple days of replays. There you go. All right. Then we are now really in the countdown of our Summer Tour the van has.Brad Crowell 9:52  We leave next week. Lesley Logan 9:54  I know the van has a new look. We have a huge tour going on. We have so many cities that are sold out. So many people are we're so excited to see in person for the first time, some we were seeing in person for the third or fourth time. We can't even wait. It's powered by Balanced Body, which means we actually bring some of the Contrology equipment with us. You can try it out. We have amazing prizes from them to give out, we're bringing Bayon. So it's opc.me/tour and then you can see all the different cities. And some of these cities, you are easily drivable. We have people who are coming to two cities, so you can do that too. Also, if you're having a little FOMO that we're not coming to a city anywhere in driving distance near you. And I just want to remind you, we are driving for several thousands of miles so you can drive a few hundred. Brad Crowell 10:38  Yeah, you can, it's okay, come join us. Lesley Logan 10:38  But it's like, if that's not an option, the Calgary event is a virtual event. And so it's in-person, of course, but there's virtual seats that are available, and they're limited. So you can get those at opc.me/tour, just pick the Calgary event. And then we come back.Brad Crowell 10:48  That's, I just want to call that again, if you weren't listening, we have virtual tickets for the summer tour for two workshops. Lesley Logan 10:51  Yeah, we've never done that before. Brad Crowell 10:56  Go to opc.me/calgary. To go directly to where you find them. Opc.me/calgary. Cool.Lesley Logan 11:05  Yeah. And then we come back rest up, unpack, repack, because we're going from summer to Scotland's fall, and we are going to be in the UK. We'll be in Leeds and in Essex. Brad Crowell 11:17  Yeah, we're running out of seats over there, y'all. It's exciting.Lesley Logan 11:19  Yeah, oh yeah. It's, well, at the time we're recording every time someone buys, it's like, this is, this stock is low. It's like, low it is. So Leeds only has a couple spots. Essex, we are offering day passes there, but every time someone buys a two-day pass, we run out of two-day passes. That's how that goes. So because it's a week during the week, because it's not nice, like, you can go to a whole workshop day during the weeks, plus, like, a vacation during the week, so go to opc.me/uk, I've had a ton of people going come do a tour in the UK. I'm like, I am, you guys, I'm coming in September. And we have a ton of our workshops that are happening at these locations. You can even do both locations. There's only like one workshop that overlaps, so opc.me/uk and then we'll come back at a couple weeks later, we go to Chicago for P.O.T., and then we go to Cambodia on our retreat. And it's not too late for you to sign up for our retreat for Cambodia, because we just bought our plane tickets.Brad Crowell 12:11  We just bought our plane tickets, and also we just had another person sign up, you know, so there's still time, absolutely, it's not like, you know, the plane tickets aren't getting overly crazy right now, which is nice. So pop in, come join us. Go to crows nest retreats.com. It's going to be a pretty small group this time, so I'll tell you (inaudible). Lesley Logan 12:11  If you don't like big crowds, it's the time to come, because I can't promise you it'll be a small group every time. In fact, I know 2026 has a ton of people, so you're gonna want to do this one because we'll have more time together. It's a lot of fun, and you can always come a day early or stay a day late.Brad Crowell 12:47  Well, we would encourage you to stay a day late, because we actually have two events that we can't include, quote-unquote, in the retreat. I mean, those events include going to see an elephant sanctuary, yeah. And then the second event is a waterfall excursion. And the reality is they're both just like, like, longer events that we couldn't fit into the flow of the actual retreat. Lesley Logan 13:08  Full day events, and also, like, especially the waterfall, we have to have a smaller group weather permitting, you know, all that stuff. So that's why they're extra so and on the extra days, and we're going to do them before we leave, so you should come, crowsnestretreats.com. Okay, we have a ton to talk about with Wendee, but we have an audience question.Brad Crowell 13:26  We sure do. @BrendaHornung1990 on YouTube asks, can I put a reformer in our garage? I'm in the southeast. So does it, so it does get hot in the summer southeast, probably like Georgia or Florida? I think I'd be more worried about the humidity. Lesley Logan 13:46  Good job, Brad, good job. Brad Crowell 13:48  Unless you've got a Contrology Reformer, which won't, you don't have to worry about the humidity as much. Yeah, there's no wood that's going to warp, right? Lesley Logan 13:55  Correct, because that's the thing. So, so the thing so one, I don't know which Reformer you're looking at that makes a difference. Two, so if you get a Balanced Body Reformer, that's wood, like a studio reformer, you have to worry about humidity for the wood. However, their springs have a coating on them, so you don't have to worry about the springs resting, whereas the Contrology, it's aluminum. And so you don't know. Lesley Logan 14:21  Or an Allegro 2. Lesley Logan 14:22  Yeah, yeah, yeah, you could do that. Brad Crowell 14:22  Allegro 2 is also aluminum. Lesley Logan 14:22  Yeah, so, uh, is it aluminum? I thought it's fiberglass. No, no, it's metal, I know, but is it alluminum, I don't think it's, it's white. Brad Crowell 14:34  Yeah, it's, it's aluminum. It's definitely not, it's not fiberglass. Lesley Logan 14:37  Really? We should (inaudible).Brad Crowell 14:37  It's definitely not fiberglass.Lesley Logan 14:37  Anyway.Brad Crowell 14:37  100% not fiberglass. Lesley Logan 14:37  Well, Brad is gonna, Brad is gonna, it's a prefab. I know that it's like the way they make it, anyways, the Contrology. I have friends who have them in Hawaii.Brad Crowell 14:50  Powder-coated aluminum. Lesley Logan 14:51  Okay, there you go. Brad was paying attention on the tour, not me. Anyways.Brad Crowell 14:57  I've also picked them up. I know what they freaking are. Lesley Logan 14:59  Yeah. So the Contrology, my friend has in Hawaii, and the frame is great. Nothing goes on there. Doesn't even rust, but the springs, well, you have to clean the springs, right? So. Brad Crowell 15:12  That's right. Yeah. I forgot about that. That's great. It's exactly the same, like, environment with humidity.Lesley Logan 15:18  I so I worry more about humidity anywhere. And then when it comes to, just, like, the hotness, I mean, obviously it's gonna pin like, are you gonna want to lay on a hot Reformer bed? Because it's gonna like, like, it's like, sitting on your car when the car's hot.Brad Crowell 15:34  Well, here's the thing, you can actually regulate the temperature inside your garage. Lesley Logan 15:37  Yeah, if you can, yeah, then I would do that. Brad Crowell 15:39  In Cambodia, we have these wall units for, like, air air conditioning. Lesley Logan 15:44  Yeah, I love this idea. We're helping you out, Brenda, so get a wall unit, and then I probably. Brad Crowell 15:49  Yeah, they're called a they're called, there's a specific term for them. What are they called? They're not a window unit. They're a wall unit. Oh, they call it a split, mini split. Lesley Logan 16:03  A mini split. Brad Crowell 16:03  Mini split. So that way, what it does is it actually takes the big air conditioning part of it that, like, you know, is loud and noisy, and it actually is outside, yeah, but then the inside is just a little wall.Lesley Logan 16:15  They're amazing. They're so quiet. The other thing I would just say is, like, I've never experienced this thing. I've never had to purchase one in my life. But a dehumidifier is something you can also purchase. I saw one in Brad's uncle's basement. I was like, what is this thing? He said, a dehumidifier. I'm like, I only know about humidifiers. Clearly, that's where I've lived in the world. So you can have a dehumidifier, and then that would make your equipment last a long time as well. Brad Crowell 16:39  That's true. Lesley Logan 16:40  Just something to note that, like Naugahyde and your leather straps, you know, those things can be affected by the weather. So if, again, if it's hot, cold, like, you're just gonna want to find a way to stabilize the environment a little bit so that it, you can have it for years, because that's all I want to make sure, like, we didn't leave my Reformer around the heat. I think my extra Reformers out in the in the garage for, like, in the shed for like, a year, but it was in a box protected. And then we're like, we got to get that in. That's probably not so great for it. So. Brad Crowell 17:07  Yeah, just because the the Naugahyde will eventually become brittle. Lesley Logan 17:10  I think the leather straps would also become, they would dry out as well because, like, they stay healthy because of the oils of the skin. So anyway.Brad Crowell 17:18  I just also found out that a mini split is, it's called a mini split because it's heating and cooling. Brad Crowell 17:24  Oh, well, there you go. Brenda. Show us the pictures of your garage with your new Reformer in it. Brad Crowell 17:24  You're amazing. Lesley Logan 17:24  You guys. If you want to ask us any questions, they don't have to be about Pilates, they can be about anything. You'll, you just have to go to beitpod.com/questions. You can also send us your wins. We can celebrate you. And you can hear about your wins on a day that you need to because they always happen to land on the day. You're like, my life isn't working. And then you hear a win you had, and you're like, Oh my God, it was, I just forgot.Brad Crowell 17:47  Stick around. We'll be right back. Brad Crowell 17:49  All right. Welcome back. Let's talk about Wendee Close. Wendee is the founder and CEO of Goals2Life, a personal development platform designed to help individuals create and achieve meaningful goals through detailed planning and execution. It's quite a comprehensive platform. It's actually kind of amazing. After 27 years in the B2C industry, she pivoted into the tech world to build a purpose driven SaaS platform aimed at transforming how people bring their aspirations to life. SaaS stands for software as a service. So the like a SaaS platform would be like Gmail or Google Calendar. That's a SaaS platform. In this case, she's making a tool that is software that'll help you bring your aspirations to life for real, known for her resourcefulness and her get it done attitude, Wendee now helps ground people break through burnout and overwhelm by aligning their goals with their values. And I think for her, that was, like, legit, because she was like, doing she and her husband had started a business that could she do it? Yes. Was she really good at it? Yes. Did it light her fire? No. Should she have been doing it? No, right. But she did it for decades, right? And after all that time, and they really did well, she still was like, I kind of don't like what I'm doing, yeah. And so that's what caused the shift to start this platform, you know, effectively starting a second career after her kids have flown the coop. She they're empty nesters now. So, you know, she's, she's definitely tackling a huge project. Lesley Logan 19:30  Bird launcher. Brad Crowell 19:30  She's a bird launcher. Lesley Logan 19:32  Yeah, I like, I know I said on the podcast, if not, I said her face. I am, like, immensely impressed that she has taken on this project because, like, it's so, like, I had no idea what starting OPC like, how much effort it is to have a platform like OPC. Like it is the amount of work we have to do on a daily basis for OPC is the amount of people who work on that site to keep everything. So like, when she was, when she talks, she's like, oh my God, that is the biggest project in the world. Like, I was just like, sitting there, from the experience of it, and she doesn't even see it as difficult. I mean, like, of course there's difficult times, there's hard days, but she always is like, excited for the challenge. And like, she takes it in, and then she figures out who she has to talk to to make it happen. And so anyways, one thing she said that I love, and I think it is why she can do what she's doing and take on this mountain of an amazing business, is when the vision is clear, you become it. So she is like, even though the project is still being built out and it works. She has tons of clients and tons of customers and tons of companies that work with it, but it was something that she's continuing to build and perfect and do. She isn't waiting for it to be ready to go out there and talk about it. She's talking about it because she's it.Brad Crowell 20:54  She's been talking about it, I mean, you know, before it was even ready to go. She understood what she was building, who it was going to help, and was out there sharing it with the world.Lesley Logan 21:04  I mean, if you haven't listened the episode, you have to, because it's truly a Be It Till You See It like it is, she is not waiting for the project to be ready for someone to deem the project ready for anything like that. She's like, I'm going to go out there, I'm going to talk about it and the questions I get and the things people need are going to help me make it even better. And that's what we are always trying to tell people to do inside of Agency as well. She said, when you believe in what you're doing, it becomes, it becomes easy to show up and say, this is who I am and this is what I'm doing. The vision is so strong, you live it. And I think, like, a lot of us, are sitting in the place where she was before in that B2C thing. Maybe you're not B2C but, like, was she good at it? Yes. Can she do it? Yes. It didn't light her up. And so I think a lot of people are struggling with, like, preaching, preaching out loud and and boasting about the thing they're doing because it's not the thing they really want to be doing. So they're not as excited. She is so excited about this. Every time I talk to her, I'm like, excited about what I do. Like, somehow, like, it reminds me this is why I do what I do.Brad Crowell 22:06  She lights everybody on fire. You know, I bet you, too, that all the things that she learned with her first business on, she managed a team. She, you know, worked with clients. She, you know, understood how to do every aspect of that business. There's like a direct translation for what she's doing now, even though it's a different project and a different product and a different goal, the skills she learned from the first one are absolutely setting her up to excel at this in What? What? So much faster, so much faster.Lesley Logan 22:42  Well, and also, like, every single even if the thing you want to do is something you were never trained to do, every skill that you've acquired along your journey is transferable. It's all. Brad Crowell 22:51  Story of my life. Lesley Logan 22:52  Yeah, it's really all so transferable. And there, most of the jobs that I well, the job that I currently have, there's, like, not like a degree in it. So, yeah, like, I think, like, we're all like, where's the checklist to go check? There isn't one. So get your vision clear and then talk about it. Don't be afraid to talk about it, because, just because people question it or and they might not be as excited as you, their questions help you deliver what you do better. You know? When we first started about OPC versus how we talk about it now, very different based on the questions we got from the way we talk about it, you know, like, so.Brad Crowell 23:28  Class starts at six. I think we even said that. I'm sure it was, like, new class on Tuesday. I really loved when she was talking about clarity and resourcefulness and her reminder about it, specifically around asking for help, right? She has no qualms to reach out to people and ask for help. She is very excited about what it is that she's doing, and because she knows what she's building, it gives her enthusiasm, right, and courage. And then when she goes and she asks someone for help, even if they say no, it doesn't matter. It doesn't deflate her enthusiasm. But because she has that, she can ask for help in a way that is compelling people actually want to help her. She said, every single day, I'm like, I don't know how to do the thing that I'm gonna do today. But what do I want to do? I want to impact lives. So she has a bigger goal. Like, for example, the conversation you were having was about going live on Instagram. She's like, I'm not a techie, you know, social media user, but I'm willing to learn this thing, even if I fail at it, if I fall flat on my face. Because if I can go live with someone today, and it's got to further my actual goal, which is impacting people's lives. And she said she just, she encourages everyone to just be, learn to be as resourceful as you can. Right? And she said, if you're honest and transparent about where you are and what you're trying to do, others will help you do it.Lesley Logan 25:03  Yeah, they will. They because they get excited. Because you're excited. People want to be part of the party. People want to be part of, that is how, for better or worse, people get involved in organizations like you know, they want it. I read the book Careless, careless people about Facebook and, oh, guys, it's a book worth, and if I could get her on, I would, but she's not doing any touring right now, but it's she talks about why she got involved with Facebook and why she was pushing for it to be around the world, because she want, she want to be part of the vision of connecting people, yeah, and helping people have all these and I know that's like the worst example, but also like getting so excited about your thing that people get excited to be part of your life, because they'll want to connect with the right people too, whether or not they can help you, like, Oh, I know, so and so. And then they're so excited about what you're doing when they talk about this to their friend, there's a trust transference, and all of a sudden you have the connections you need, you know. So no one gets to get their goals all done by themselves. It just doesn't happen that way. You want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.Brad Crowell 26:10  Well, yes, very enthusiastically delivered there. Oh, you mean that old thing. Okay, dad. That's hilarious. All right, well, if you are looking for some, Be It Action Items, stick around, because we're going to dig into those when we come back. Brad Crowell 26:33  Okay, finally, let's dig into those Be It Action Items that we had with our conversation with Wendee Close. What bold, executable, intrinsic or targeted action items can we take away from your convo? I'm gonna go first, because she actually went down all four like, right away, which is pretty awesome.Lesley Logan 26:53  Whenever anyone does that, I'm like, oh, you took the assignment to the next level.Brad Crowell 26:58  She did. She did. She said, hey, here's what's bold, own your next level identity, right? She encourages you to ask, what would my future self do right now, today, in this instance, and then take that action from your future you, right? And she said, that's super bold, you know, like, know where you're going, know what you're trying to do, and then you know, if you're faced with a tough decision, would you, would you choose yourself make decision A or decision B, right? And then she said, executable, take small intentional steps every single day, small intentional steps, right? Breaking down big goals into micro movements. And then ask, what's one step that I can take today, right now, and then go do that step. In fact, that's like half of what Goals2Life is is literally the execution element of it, because what they help you do is map out your goals and then figure out how to do them, actually, how to bring them to life, right? Lesley Logan 27:56  Yeah. You just, that's where the name came from. Brad Crowell 28:00  Goals2Life. That's where the name came from. Intrinsic. Align your goals with your purpose. Align your goals with purpose. She said, What? Ask yourself, why does this even matter to me? Like, if you have a goal of, let's say, doing a 5k race, you know. Why does this matter to you? Why you know do the seven layers of why you know, what is it that you're actually trying to do here? And then, when your goals are tied to your values, your commitment will deepen. So you need to understand what your values are. And then we need to find goals that are going to tie it all together. So, intrinsic. Align your goals with your purpose, targeted, set clear, measurable milestones, replace vague hopes with tangible outcomes. Ask yourself, how will I measure the progress? We would suggest deadlines. Deadlines actually give yourself by this time I will do this thing, you know, or by this time I will, I will have this finished or this piece, piece of it accomplished. Because then it gives you targets. Lesley Logan 29:06  I just talked to Agency members about this. I said, if with, like, you know, we're halfway through the year, right? And it's like, if you reflect on your goals, you wanted to have done this year, what you want to have done by now, and you're like, oh my God, I didn't hit the name. It's like, well, it's, don't beat yourself up, it's ask yourself very clearly, like, why haven't I done this? What has been in the way? Is this actually something I still want to do? Can I actually do it and then set new measurable goals, set new milestones and make it happen? You know? So I believe in those I love a deadline. Brad Crowell 29:35  Love a deadline. Yeah. What about you?Lesley Logan 29:37  Okay, so she said, and this goes back to what I was just saying, so I'll just translate. If something's a priority, if it's a goal, it needs to be on your calendar. And that's where a lot of people make mistakes. They're like, Oh, I'm gonna do this thing, but they don't even set aside time, like in my calendar. If you look at my calendar, it'll say, write this thing, do this thing, call this person. It is in my calendar. So there's not like, Oh, here's my three things I wanna get done today. And. I have a wide open day. No, every single work day is like it's full because I have now, of course, I can move things, if something comes up or whatever, but then it gets moved because if it's in your calendar, you'll reschedule it. So that's what's really important. She said, if it's not in your calendar, it's not a priority. And she didn't mention time blocking. I'm big fan of time blocking. I actually talk a lot about how we teach Agency members how to time block so that they actually move the needle forward in their business. She also said this is really important. She said she was talking about her burnout. She said no amount of movement, water, nutrition or meditation can make up for the lack of sleep, so sleep should be right there at the very top. And I think that is the most important thing. It's something I always talk about. When you come on a retreat to Cambodia, we actually like put your dream schedule together, and the first thing you actually put in there is when do you go to bed, and when do you wake up? It's your dream schedule. It's not your current sleep schedule. It's like what you desire to have as a sleep schedule. And it's the most one of the most important things to do is work towards that, because you cannot, like, biohack your way out of sleep you didn't get. Maybe one day, maybe two days, but you can't do it 365 days. Not gonna happen.Brad Crowell 31:16  Wendee and I definitely connected on that, because both of us just didn't leave ourselves sleep time or permission to sleep. And so, you know, definitely impacted me through college for sure, you know. And even today, you know, it's still a decision to make sure that that is a priority, But yeah, I love it. I mean, you know, Wendee is one of the most magnetic people that you'll ever met. Like when she walks into a room, you know it, whether she meant you to know it or not, you know it. And her enthusiasm for and her vision for her business, for Goals2Life, is contagious. And, you know, I think the product is, it's really amazing, and helping people actually move forward, instead of feeling stuck. And, you know, I'm excited, so y'all should go check it out. Goals2Life. The number two, Goals2Life.com, we'll put that link in the show notes, for sure, yeah. But yeah, if you haven't gone back yet, go listen to Wendee. She's amazing. Yeah, go listen to why we love her so much. Lesley Logan 32:25  Okay, I'm Lesley Logan. Brad Crowell 32:25  And I'm Brad Crowell. Lesley Logan 32:25  Thank you so much for listening to this podcast.

What if time isn't a river flowing in one direction, but rather, a two-way street? In this episode of Unpacking Possibility, psychologist Traci Stein delves into the intriguing concept of retrocausality, the possibility that our future actions and thoughts can influence our past. Traci discusses the traditional view of time and challenges it with the idea that future events and future decisions may affect us even before they occur. The episode also explores how precognitive dreams or other knowings may be generated retrocausally by future events.Traci provides examples of what retrocausality is and how it might work via highlighting experiments by noted psychologist Dr. Daryl Bem and information outlined in anthropologist Eric Wargo's book, “Time Loops.” Traci also offers an exercise for listeners to try out sending positive emotions and support back to their past selves in the service of feeling, doing, and living better overall.00:00 What if the River of Time is a Two-Way Street?00:38 Overview of Retrocausality, or the Future Affecting the Past02:33 Precognition, Retrocausality and Time Loops05:00 Examples and Experiments on Precognition20:36 Psychological and Hypnotic Perspectives on Healing the Past35:44 Practical Exercises and ConclusionFor more on Traci Stein, her hypnotic imagery, courses and more, visit: https://www.drtracistein.com/For more information about Dr. Daryl Bem's research and an abstract of, “Feeling the Future,” visit: https://psycnet.apa.org/doiLanding?doi=10.1037%2Fa0021524For more on Eric Wargo's interviews, books (including Time Loops), and his work related to precognition and retrocausality, visit: https://ericwargo.com/

Visualisations are a really powerful way to help your mind connect to something you desire. When you create that image and can attach a positive emotion to it, your subconscious mind will come up with creative ideas to help you achieve that goal. That's why you'll sometimes experience really random ideas in the middle of the night, or when driving or in the shower, those times generally when you can't write something down! This is your subconscious mind having chance to help you achieve your goal.be sure to download this so you can listen as often as you can - I listen to visualisations daily, constantly keeping me locked in to a vision I wish to create.If you'd like to learn more about visualisation, read this blog.If you'd love to learn more about the work I do, check out my website here.

In this episode I welcome Theresa Sansone for an insightful conversation about the power of connecting with your future self. Together, we explore what it truly means to visualize your future self, both personally and professionally, and how this approach differs from traditional goal setting by focusing on relaxing into your unique blueprint rather than chasing external goals. Discover how future memories and tuning into your energetic frequency can provide wisdom and guidance, why aligning with your inner potential is essential, and practical strategies for tending to your energy even when immediate change isn't possible. This episode is designed to inspire entrepreneurs to create a life and business that feels authentic and aligned, moving away from one-size-fits-all success formulas and embracing a more humane, heart-centered path. In this episode we talked about: The concept of visualizing your future self and what it means both personally and professionally. The difference between self-visualization and traditional goal setting, emphasizing “relaxing into” your blueprint rather than chasing external goals. How “future memories” and connecting with your future self can provide wisdom and guidance. The idea of everyone having a unique inner blueprint (likened to an acorn's potential to become an oak tree) and the importance of aligning with it. The importance of tuning into the energetic “frequency” of your future self, using the metaphor of tuning forks to explain alignment and attraction. Strategies for tending to your energy, especially when you cannot change your circumstances immediately and so much more Watch this episode on YouTube Theresa's Resources Theresa's Website Future Self Now Playbook Download the Future Self Now Visualization Follow Theresa on LinkedIn --   Speaker 2:  hello, humane marketers. welcome back to the humane marketing podcast. the place to be for the generation that cares. this is a show where we talk about running your business in a way that feels good to you, is aligned with your values, and also resonates with today's conscious customers because it's humane, ethical, and non pushy. i'm sarah senecroce, your hippie turned conscious business coach for quietly rebellious entrepreneurs and change makers, mama bear of the humane marketing circle, and renegade author of marketing like we're human, selling like we're human, and soon also my third book, business like we're human. if after listening to the show for a while, you're ready to move on to the next level and start implementing and would welcome a community of like minded, quietly rebellious entrepreneurs who discuss with transparency what works and what doesn't work in business, then we'd love to welcome you in our humane marketing circle. if you're picturing your typical facebook group, let me paint a new picture for you. this is a closed community of like minded entrepreneurs from all over the world who come together in two meetups per month to hold each other accountable and build their business in a conscious and sustainable way. we all share with transparency and vulnerability what works and what doesn't work in our business so that you can figure out what works for you, instead of keep throwing spaghetti on the wall and seeing what sticks. find out more at humane dot marketing forward slash circle. twice per year, i host my signature program, the marketing like we're human, aka the client resonator program live. in a deep dive into the seven p's of the humane marketing mandala, you will learn to market from within. this program is for you if you want and need to get more clients, but want to share your message in an ethical and humane way. if you want to make a difference with your work. if you are just starting out, or if you have been in business for a while, but haven't really found the marketing activities that work for you. or also, if you are pivoting your business from business as usual to your life's work and want to radically change the way you get clients. find out more at humane dot marketing forward slash program. and finally, if you prefer one on one support from me, my humane business coaching could be just what you need, whether it's for your marketing, sales, general business building, or help with your big idea like writing a book. i'd love to share my brain and my heart with you together with my almost twenty years business experience and help you grow a sustainable business that is joyful and sustainable. if you love this podcast, wait until i show you my mama bear qualities as my one on one client. find out more at humane dot marketing forward slash coaching.

Speaker 1:  yeah. well, i've been coaching for twenty five years plus. Speaker 0:  wow. yeah. Speaker 1:  and i was in it. i knew it was not for me. it just wasn't working. i knew there was something more. i knew there was a sort of an essence of me that wasn't being expressed. so several kind of programs and courses later, i, really, came alive to that there was absolutely more for me to to give. and, i came across the book the artist's way that many of your viewers may well know. i became a coach and i started primarily teaching that, about how to rediscover your self expression and really be sort of following your true path. but it was a lot around, you know, your our creative selves. and i did that for thirteen years, running 12 workshops, you know, in person, and latterly online and so on. so, i became really alive to what can happen when people really reconnect with themselves, their true essence. and often it is a very sort of creative side. right? and, go beyond all the programming and the sort of social constructs that we get, you know, battered by over the years. and, but then, you know, i'd been having a kind of waking dream about, this version of me that was living in a fantastic home and that was, just enjoying a moment over a cup of coffee where she was sort of taking that all in and, enjoying that. and then my family sort of suddenly appeared, and we all went away. we were all going out the front door with suitcases because i was giving a speech in paris. and, and this just wasn't something i was going to share with anyone because it sounded a bit kind of outlandish at the time. and but it wouldn't go away. this was a a it felt more like a memory. in fact, nowadays, i call them future memories because it felt so real. and it just suddenly occurred to me that i could experimented with that and, talked to her and blow me down. she was answering back with a lot of really great wisdom. so i thought i knew i was sort of on to something. so i then was grabbing every kind of warm human being that i could possibly find and put them on my couch and and getting them to try this visualization that i came up with to sort of connect to that part of, you know, that i knew was inside of all all of us. and, and everybody found a connection. so it was wonderful. and i you know, i've been doing it now for sort of nearly fifteen years, these, these visualisations. and there's only been one time when somebody hasn't got their future self, and that was because they'd been frog marched to me by their aunt. Speaker 0:  yeah. you know, it Speaker 1:  wasn't a sort of a a sort of willing, participant. but, yeah, i mean, everybody has this. this. so it's, like, really very, very, you know, revealing that this is a truth that we all hold inside of ourselves. like, who we are able to become if we just relax into our own blueprint. so i liken it to an acorn, has the blueprint of oak tree in it, but it doesn't look anything like an oak tree. mhmm. nor is it the size of an oak tree. but it knows, if you like, that to to just relax into its blueprint and it becomes an oak tree. mhmm. and we are no different. we have a blueprint that is absolutely special to us. we're all different. and if we relax into that and let that unfold and really know that that's who we are, then we will become oak tree. so this is a process of getting in touch with your oak tree ness, as i say. Speaker 0:  yeah. and and, you know, several times now you said relax into. right? yeah. and so maybe another question is how is self visualization different from, like, the traditional goal setting? Speaker 1:  mhmm. Speaker 0:  right? which is very action oriented. so not so much relaxing into. so tell Speaker 1:  me yeah. Speaker 0:  talk about the difference. Speaker 1:  well, that paradigm is about chasing, you know, about tracking down, making things happen. it's about push and shove and all of that. it's about trying to insert ourselves into life. this is not that. this is this is, as i say, following your own inner blueprint, and it's an inner knowing. mhmm. so it's we all have it, and often it doesn't take much to peep for people to admit, yeah, i've always known i can be and do more. and that still small voice inside of us that's calling out for that is your oak tree ness. mhmm. it's that part of you that knows what you're capable of, knows what you're here for, and knows what you're capable of in terms of, you know, your being your expanded fully realized self. and so we're tuning into a knowing. we're not kind of goal setting, as you say, and, like, aspirationally trying to go for something that may not even be ourselves. right? so people might think the the word is think. right? they might think they know what it is, but it's nothing to do with what the heart and soul, if you like, know. Speaker 0:  well, it's usually the the definitions of success that come from the outside in. right? like, the career development that you should have, and and and that's outside in instead of inside out. yeah. Speaker 1:  exactly. i use those very words when, i i also work with with organisations. Speaker 0:  mhmm. Speaker 1:  and, yeah, i use those very words. right? it's not outside in. it's inside out. and, obviously, in organizations, that is a, you know, completely different way of doing things. Speaker 0:  yeah. i wanna i wanna talk about that as well because yeah. when you taught yeah. told me that you're bringing this into our organizations, i'm like, wow. you know, this is yeah. it's a paradigm shift, right, that we're completely, yeah, unknown territory for for organizations for sure, but even even for people, i would say. like, and so you let me through one of these, visualizations, which was which was amazing. and i had done it before, and i had, you know, kind of transcribed, my experience in the in this chapter. as a person who is actually not i'm not necessarily comfortable with visualizing. right? and i told you that and and you're like, don't worry about it. it's like it's more of this feeling, this knowing. Speaker 1:  yes. Speaker 0:  and so really that's what came up. right? it wasn't like i wasn't seeing myself necessarily in future situations, but it was more like a deep knowing. and i think that's very aligned with, you know, my idea of of changing our relationship to work as well, which is less about the doing and more about the being. and therefore, if we are more in this being, right, then we yeah. we we are we need to be less in the doing. so talk to me about, you know, what kind of different experiences people have when and and maybe just explain what it looks like when you have, when you do a session like that. Speaker 1:  yeah. no. it's a really good point. and and and it's very pivotal. i always set it up with people that you may not see anything. Speaker 0:  right. Speaker 1:  this is not about visualising in a way. i mean, it's just an easy word because everybody knows what it is. but it's not about pictures. for all that i saw pictures, and some people do, it's really not necessary. what's necessary is that we're tuning into, the way of being, if you like. the the the essence, the feeling of right. your future self. and if we have that, then we have everything we need to align to your future self. so the way this works is forever however we are energetically in life is what we attract. so i use the metaphor of tuning forks. so if i have the tuning fork for c, note c in my hand, and i have a row of tuning forks on the table, only one of which is tuned to c, and i ping my c tuning fork, then it's only the c tuning fork on the table that's going to vibrate. mhmm. so if we wanna become our future selves, and this applies to organisations too, if we wanna become our future selves, then we have to resonate at sea in order to attract the future self that is sea. mhmm. and how do we how do we align? well, we've gotta know energetically who our future self is. Speaker 0:  mhmm. Speaker 1:  and then we can align. but until we're you know, whilst we're in confusion, oh, you know, that person's saying that, society's saying that, my teachers told me that. right? we're not we don't know really what the vibration is that we're trying to line up to. right? so and so once we're equipped with the know the knowledge that our future self resonates in this way, energetically, in other words, they have these kind of values, they they they approach life in these ways, then, you know, it's much much easier to go, okay. and that is why my program is called future self now. mhmm. because the only way we can align is in the now. yeah. that's all we've got. so we have to be looking after tending to the quality of our energy right now. and is it aligned as much as possible to my future self's energy? and and the more i do that, the more i can do it. i mean, none of us perfect. right? but the more i can and the more i'm kind of aware that that's my goal, then the more that's gonna come towards us. right? so the quicker it will come towards us. yeah. so that's that's the game. Speaker 0:  i love this image of the, of the tuning forks. and and what i thought of when you were explaining that is, like, it also matters who's around those tuning forks. right? because the frequency or the resonance of other people constantly influences you. and and it's interesting because i'm just going to the market through the marketing, like, we're human program where we're talking about human design and how we are wired. and then this lady is like, well, i think i'm just surrounded by the wrong people. and i'm like, totally, totally true. like, that's what happened to me when i pivoted the business. and it's like, if you're with the wrong people, then obviously you always feel awkward, being yourself. right? Speaker 1:  yeah. yeah. Speaker 0:  so you need to actually also change the people that you surround yourself with. yeah. Speaker 1:  if you know that that affects you and you're tending to the quality of your energy mhmm. and your the quality of your energy is the number one priority right. then you need to do something about that. now sometimes we don't have any choice. because say it's your boss. yeah. so now you've got to change energetically about the boss. Speaker 0:  right. Speaker 1:  now it doesn't mean that you stay with that company, you know, like it might be time to go. right? but whilst you have to, what i say to people is you have to change the energy of how you're approaching the boss in order to attract something different from them. Speaker 0:  right. Speaker 1:  so, i mean, just a quick example of this is my husband who was having a terrible time with a, colleague at work, and and i and i asked him to think think about the things that he appreciated about that person. and he was like nothing. nothing's nothing's very good about them. but i said you know next time you go into meeting because this person was you know being very disingenuous and very critical in meetings and things like that. i said, next time you go to a meeting, just concentrate on the things that you enjoy about that person. he said he couldn't think of anything, of course, at but then we we went into it because all you have to do is a tiny, tiny thing. and he said, well, they're good with their team. Speaker 0:  mhmm. Speaker 1:  and they they they dress smartly. right? and it sounds ridiculous, but it doesn't matter because you can imagine yeah. going in and the energy of that mhmm. changes the dynamic immediately. and he did that. and at the end of the meeting, the woman praised what he'd been doing in front of everyone. it was a completely different wow. but also what happened was two weeks later, that person resigned and, went on. so, like, there is this concept that you can curate what's around you by how you be energetically. and everything that's not a match yeah. to your energy has a tendency to just sort of fall off. it's something mhmm. to put to the test. right? but, yeah. it's it's a a fascinating and very deep and wide subject to this thing about how we are energetically and what we can attract. right? Speaker 0:  so you mentioned the the name of your program is your future self now. now. when we visualize ourselves, though we see or we feel, well, the future self. right? and so how do we manage the uncertainty or the path from being who we are now and being who we want to be and and not get obsessed with this trip to paris. you know? Speaker 1:  yeah. yes. exactly. no. and it's a very good thing good good question. and, well, one thing is that you can be in touch with your future self. and, you know, like, this is a conversation you actually can have with your own inner wisdom. in other words, your future self. because this is, like, the best version of you, the the wisest person that you've got at your on your at your fingertips. right? and that person would say, relax. it's coming. and they would say, enjoy your life while, you know, while you're doing what you're doing, and you are building towards that. and, you know, trust it and relax into it. i don't want you to hurry up and get here. i want you to enjoy the process that's needed in order to become this. right? and so they wouldn't want you to wish your life away. they want you to enjoy the journey and enjoy the knowing that that is what's coming. Speaker 0:  mhmm. Speaker 1:  and, and again, you know, if you're chasing, if you're feeling resentful and impatient, any of those things, right, you're now not aligned to how future self does life. mhmm. yeah. so Speaker 0:  i see my future self or or, like, before we did this session, i i was more tuning into my wise woman. right. like, see myself on the bike and, you know, white hair flowing in the the wind and getting my groceries in this little basket in in front of me. and so yeah. just like like you said, there's no rush, you know, in in that in that picture. right. and at the same time, i'm like, well, why am i not? you know, we we had bikes, but, where we live in lausanne, it's very up and down. and so i never used it, and so we transformed them into ebikes. and now every time i take this ebike, i'm like, i'm already my future self. Speaker 1:  exactly. yeah. yeah. it's a really good question to ask. in what ways am i already my future self? Speaker 0:  right. Speaker 1:  so back to that question about the what we see and what we feel, it's the what comes in terms of the actual manifestations. yeah. i haven't been in done that talk in paris yet. i will. right. right? but the the question is much more, how much am i being future self now? right? and, and if i'm energetically aligned to her, then i don't need that. right? that that that's just a sort of byproduct. those things are the byproducts. right? right. if you think about it, what are we wanting in life? we're not really wanting the things because we're we're just conflating what we think the things are going to do and how they're gonna make us feel. Speaker 0:  love us. yeah. Speaker 1:  so we we're actually wanting the feeling. mhmm. yeah. so that's what we can that we have some power over that right now. right? so we can have the feeling of that. yes. the manifestations aren't there. and if if that if if that's making us feel like we're lacking in some way, then we can ask ask ourselves, so what am i needing right now? Speaker 0:  mhmm. Speaker 1:  you know, that that isn't about the thing. it's about the the the the way it makes me feel. can i can i bring that to myself that way that it makes me feel right now? the answer is yes. with a bit of, you know, looking around and checking in with yourself, you'll be able to find a way of having that experience right now. Speaker 0:  yeah. another thing that came up, in our little visualisation was the hippie picture. right? and i Speaker 1:  think i was Speaker 0:  mentioning barefoot. and so i'm like, well, i just gotta walk more often barefoot. right? like, that's that's the easy thing. and, yes, it creates a very different feeling than walking with shoes on. so Speaker 1:  yeah. exactly. absolutely. so there's all sorts of things. i mean, people can go on to my website and and download a a thing about how to align to your future self. but it is you can do it in these little things. you know? like, what's their, you know, are you doing the things that they're doing that that you could absolutely do now? like you say, like the biking and the, you know, might even be just the the kind of tea that you have or, you know, like, are you are you being as abundant with yourself as they are being abundant with themselves? you know? like, in doing that in a in a, you know, obviously, in a way that works, but it's the feelings of it. so, yeah. like, if they're if they have a real hippie element that they're really enjoying, Speaker 0:  how can Speaker 1:  you have that right now? right? so, yeah. i love what you're doing. brilliant. Speaker 0:  yeah. so the reason i brought it into the business like we're human book, is also because i think it's such a powerful tool to get us out of this stuckness and destruction that we are in right now Speaker 1:  mhmm. Speaker 0:  and really use it as a tool to reimagine completely, like, something that we feel right now is completely impossible that we could ever have or ever live in abundance. and i'm not talking becoming millionaires or anything, but just feeling peaceful inside and feeling abundant. right? yeah. and so i think it's a really powerful tool to, yeah, reimagine our our life and work differently. Speaker 1:  yeah. Speaker 0:  have you is is that a topic that comes up in your, in your with your clients? Speaker 1:  well, yes. i mean, i i'm actually the chair of the association of sustainability practitioners. and it's it's kind of, i mean, they're a very amazing hopeful organization who are looking, you know, really future sensing and in, as i say, in really hopeful ways. but, yeah, the that exercise with them has, i think, shifted things, subtly as we've gone along is that we have to. we have to tune into that version of life and for and the planet. because if we don't, we're gonna collapse. we're gonna get overwhelmed and we become we lose our agency, and we can't do anything about it. mhmm. so another metaphor i use is one of cells in the body. so if you have a body, so that's the planet, and we are the cells, there may be disease in parts of the body, but it doesn't help if all the cells in the body kind of rush towards the disease and get infected themselves. mhmm. we have to have pockets where there are healthy cells that can grow from being healthy. and the more healthy cells there are, the more we can help heal the disease. it's the healthy cells that are going to heal. yeah. we can't we can't solve the problems from the energy of the problems. we have to solve the problems from the energy of the solution. so the more healthy cells, human beings, there are in the world, the more we are we can help heal. so that for me is very, very pivotal. it's it's way the way asp, the association, works. and i know we we both, enjoy the idg and the, you know, development goals and what they're up to. and there's so many organizations and there's so many people out there who are doing great things. we need to highlight those people. we need to stop highlighting what's going wrong and we need to start highlighting what's going right. and the more we do that, a bit like my my story about the colleague of my husband's. right? by he he focused on what was right. Speaker 0:  mhmm. Speaker 1:  and there's always something to find, even if it's that the person has nice teeth. right? you know, there's there's always something. if you focus on that, that's where the healing starts. right? so that's why it's important. Speaker 0:  yeah. i love how you compare the micro with the macro because it's it's so true. like yeah. and and that then changes the energy of of us as change makers because, like you say, if we are not healthy as change makers, what kind of can we really create? Speaker 1:  yeah. so yeah. yeah. then we get into force and and and bitterness and anger, and we lose our agency, and we just join in. you know, there's another i love you might have spotted i love a metaphor, but there's the the metaphor of the well. right? so if somebody's fallen down the well, you're of no help to them just going and joining them in the bottom of the well and going, oh, poor you. right? we we can't that's not that's not helping them get out of the well. we have to stay above and throw them a line from there. but we cannot come down. we have to stay there. we have to be willing to stay healthy. and it's a brave choice to stay hopeful when everybody keeps telling us that you know it's it's hopeless and it's all going to hell in a handbasket. we cannot engage with that because now we're part of the problem. Speaker 0:  yeah. and that's why i think, you know, just the the word future nowadays, it's such an important word to use in everything. and, you know, of course, especially in your work, but but everybody should, like, make the future part of of their work now because that's what we're working towards, right? any kind of healing, change making, consulting, changing, anything like that should all be future, oriented. Speaker 1:  yes. yes. Speaker 0:  it can, you know, it can only be helpful to visualize that future so that you know where you're going towards, what you're going towards. Speaker 1:  and to know that there is something to go towards. right? that there is yeah. Speaker 0:  there Speaker 1:  is hope and that, you know, we otherwise, how can we operate? right? yeah. i don't know if you know dan pink. he did a he did a ted talk on motivation. mhmm. which basically comes down to three things. amp, basically, is the acronym. autonomy, mastery, and purpose. Speaker 0:  mhmm. Speaker 1:  so in order for us to really engage with life and do it well, we have to feel a sense of autonomy that we're doing things on our own terms in our own way. we have to feel that we're getting mastery. in other words, we're getting better and better at something, that we're growing. and we have to have a sense of purpose, of a sense of a higher that there's something higher that we're working towards. yeah. and that really resonates with me. i think that's absolutely true. and so that the future self work, well, helps with all of that. because, you know, autonomy, you suddenly see that future self is doing in her or his own way. mhmm. and but it that it's of real service to do it that way. not to become a clone of somebody else. right? that they're the fact that they're relaxing into their own oak tree ness means that they they are being the greatest version of themselves and that is the greatest gift that we can give. right? that's a very generous act. it's always good to feel like we're getting better and better at something. and future self gives you that sense of, oh, yeah. there's some there is a gap, but that's fun to to, you know, to work on closing that gap. and there's something much bigger at work that my future self is really engaged with, and i i can really get behind that. Speaker 0:  it's beautiful. Speaker 1:  mhmm. Speaker 0:  how would you say, like, people, can start on their own, you know, kind of just yeah. you i think you said having a conversation with your future self. would that be the step, or how would they get started? Speaker 1:  well, it's interesting. yes. i think if you, if you feel fairly close to your future self, like, you can tell that you do have that kind of inner knowing that there is more Speaker 0:  mhmm. Speaker 1:  and you may have even had those kind of waking dreams that i've had, then yes, absolutely get in touch with that person and have a conversation with them on per on paper. you can lie down and and see if you can start interacting with that person. if you're feeling a little bit more confused and lost, it helps to be guided, i have to say. i think it's, sometimes it's just a difficult thing for us to sort of go towards by ourselves if we're feeling a little bit, you know, more out of sorts. right? because it's about the more we're kind of energetically aligned with our future selves, the more we're gonna see them and feel them. so i think sometimes it does require somebody to help you get into that energetic space. right? but, you know, if you do have a sense, then absolutely you can, do that for yourself. Speaker 0:  i i think maybe, like, what i used to do a few years back is a recorded meditation that you can find on insight timer or calm or one of the these apps. yeah. yeah. the one i used was something about, you know, future wise woman or something like that. so that already kinda gets you familiar with the with the topic Speaker 1:  yes. Speaker 0:  and makes it then once you do have a guided, visualization, it makes it less uncomfortable. Speaker 1:  yes. exactly. you know what you're doing. that. i i have one too that i can give you the link for Speaker 0:  as well. yes. yeah. please do. Speaker 1:  yeah. yeah. Speaker 0:  yeah. i think you have a, yeah, an ebook as well. so please do tell tell the listeners where they can find you, your website, and all of that. Speaker 1:  yeah. yeah. so they, my website is, futureselfnow.co.uk. and so you can get in touch with me through there. and as i say, there are some, tips and, sort of, it says a workbook for aligning to your future self in there that you can download. and, i have a book, what i call the future self now playbook is on amazon. so you can if you just look up future self now and make sure you say playbook at the end of it because there's another book that comes up quite often. but the future self now playbook, then you that is just packed with, like, so many tools for aligning to your future self. so, yeah. that that's and it's very colorful and full of photos and just a as i say, i called it a playbook for that reason because nice. you know, we have to we have to have a lighthearted approach to life. right? Speaker 0:  it's that creative part, i guess, from your earlier years in in business. yeah. yeah. Speaker 1:  yeah. Speaker 0:  and it's true that i feel like if you wanna play with the future, you can't do it from the rational mind. right? you have to go into the other side of the brain. and so i'm sure it helps to have color and images and all of that. yes. Speaker 1:  yeah. yeah. yeah. yeah. it's it's, you know, as soon as we get into that it's all about kind of, it's all serious and we gotta heal and, you know, there's some words that are quite triggering. Speaker 0:  mhmm. Speaker 1:  and, you can see the energy that that stirs up. and so, like, now we're not in the energy of the solution. so we this is why i'm highlighting. Speaker 0:  well, i would assume also anything that is, you know, the more like i said in the beginning, the traditional goal setting. so if it's results and achievements and and well, that's all the rational mind. right? right. exactly. figure it out. and Speaker 1:  yeah. and and, you know, that is why we go to the future, by the way. you know, like, who you are is who you are is who you are. you've always been this way. we could argue you were you were it before you were born and that you'll be it after you die. we don't, you know, like, because it's energy after all. right? right. so who you are is who you are. the only reason we go to future self the only reason we go to the future is because it's the only place that our brains let us suspend disbelief to your point. right? mhmm. and, and and really get in touch with that part of you. we could get back in touch with that part of you when you were five and you were full of the joys of spring and, you know, just loving life. Speaker 0:  that's inner child work. right? Speaker 1:  that's you. right? that's still you. and and and i'm sure there's now times now when you're on top of a hill and you're just in wonder, right? that's the same thing. it's just harder in the past and in the now to do that with all the busyness and the stuff that's been before. so we use the future only because it's the place we can have the cleanest, clearest view. so, you know, it's not about chasing, as you so rightly put it, and it's not about trying to get there. it's about who we're being now. we're just highlighting much more who we already are. Speaker 0:  it's brilliant. so grateful for your work and Speaker 1:  oh, thank you. Speaker 0:  like i said, i i'm sure it it it was important fifteen years ago, but right now i cannot highlight how important it is. so Speaker 1:  yeah. it definitely feels it. yeah. Speaker 0:  lots of work to do, especially with those organisations. right? like mhmm. yeah. Speaker 1:  yeah. yeah. yeah. because organisations can get in touch with their their values and their essence too. right? and it's a it's an energetic thing. and it's it's a new paradigm, but i think, you know, we'll get there with those organizations starting. Speaker 0:  yeah. we're we're especially with are waking up. yeah. Speaker 1:  yeah. exactly. and you're very much part of that impulse, so it's brilliant. Speaker 0:  thank you. i can't wait to see you in person in stockholm in october. Speaker 1:  i'm looking forward to it. Speaker 0:  until then, thanks so much for being on the show, theresa.

Are you prone to putting things off, ignoring the inevitable, or waiting until the last moment? Donna Amidon helps you break this cycle of procrastination with a simple yet powerful proverb.The Word Revealed: Jesus' Power, Provision, and Promise takes you and your discipleship partner through John, chapters 5–6, inviting you to reveal your thoughts to each other and to the people in your world!    As our thanks for your gift today, you'll receive two copies—one for you and one for your study/discipleship partner. For your gift of any amount.....Thank you for supporting the mission of Christ.

Send us a text"Why do I keep putting this off?" It's the question we all ask ourselves when facing tasks we know we should tackle but somehow never do. In this candid conversation, we dive deep into the psychology of procrastination and share battle-tested strategies to finally break through.The struggle is real: we maintain structure at work because others depend on us, but when it comes to personal goals, we often lack the same accountability systems. Kevin opens up about wanting to apply his professional discipline to personal goals like growing the podcast's social media presence. "After working all day, I don't want to do much, but I also have goals that require effort," he admits, capturing that universal tension between relaxation and growth.What makes this episode particularly valuable is our focus on practical, immediately applicable solutions. We explore how setting aside just 15 minutes daily can build momentum for even your most neglected projects. Nancy shares her old-school paper calendar technique that provides visual cues for commitments, while Lou discusses how the right mindset can transform burdensome tasks into acts of self-respect.By the episode's end, we each make public declarations for the coming week - specific, achievable goals with clear action steps. From creating business materials to establishing consistent exercise routines, we demonstrate how to turn vague intentions into concrete plans. The power of these declarations lies in their specificity and the accountability we create by sharing them.Try this yourself: choose one personal goal you've been postponing, break it down into a 15-minute daily action, add it to your calendar, and tell someone who'll check in on your progress. Your future self will thank you for the positive changes these small steps will create. What declaration will you make today?

Episode 115 - It's Solstice 2025, a time of the year to take stock of your life and make changes for the better. Reconnecting with who you are will guide you on the right pathway. It really is easy when you take it step by step.

This episode begins with an explanation. https://www.webmd.com/obesity/features/cant-shed-those-pounds The English language is full of weird little phrases like: “Cut to the chase.” “Made from scratch.” Close but no cigar.” Where do these strange sayings come from? That's just one of the topics about our language I discuss with Erin McCarthy, VP/Editor-in-Chief of MentalFloss.com and author of the book Mental Floss: The Curious Compendium of Wonderful Words (https://amzn.to/443Ihfz). In our discussion she also discusses words people hate the most – but use anyway, and she tells the story of how McDonalds (the burger place) went to war with the dictionary.
