They're like, I don't know what I want. You know that is brand slaughter, right? Because you're now pushing the decision back on the person who doesn't know what they need in the first place, and they don't know what their options are. So what are they going to do? They're not gonna do anything, right, so that, that creates brand slaughter. Lesley Logan 0:23  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 1:02  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 intuitive convo I have with David Corbin in our last episode. If you have not yet listened to that one, you should go listen to that one. It's really fun. It's hilarious.Brad Crowell 1:18  Fascinating conversation. Lesley Logan 1:19  The way it started is quite hilarious. Brad Crowell 1:21  The way it started he's talking about, when you, when you said, you know, who are you and what do you rock at? He said, well, you know, my, my late mother could never describe, you know, what I do for a living, and she thought I just laundered money as my job.Lesley Logan 1:37  But also, like, I forget, because in the episode, do we discover how he got on the show in the episode?Brad Crowell 1:44  No. Lesley Logan 1:45  No, okay.Brad Crowell 1:46  I came into the room afterwards. So for those of you who are wondering. Lesley Logan 1:48  Because I think we talked about it in the episode. Brad Crowell 1:48  Well, okay, okay, I'm actually going to share a little bit about that as we get further into this episode. So hang on. Stick around. We'll talk about how did we connect with David Corbin in the first place? Today. Lesley Logan 2:04  Is August 7th 2025 and today's days were not really aligned with the Be It pod message. So we're looking at tomorrow, August 8th, where it will be International Allyship Day. So International Allyship Day is celebrated annually on August 8th. This holiday dedicates the day to celebrating promoting the power of allyship across the globe. On this unique day, we come together to recognize the importance of standing up for one another, fostering inclusivity and building bridges of support and understanding. Dictionary.com defines allyship as a status or role of a person who advocates and actively works for the inclusion of a marginalized or politicized group in all areas of society, not as a member of that group, but in solidarity with its struggles and point of view and under its leadership. Genuine allyship does not come with special recognition. Do not get awards for confronting issues people have to live with every day. Everyday we should be thinking about this, because it's getting harder and harder for people to see other people as human and deserving, and being worthy of living and having a life that they can have access to health care and housing. And, you know, I just it's.Brad Crowell 3:17  I think, I think, I think we need to go one step higher than that. Lesley Logan 3:21  Okay, let's do it. Brad Crowell 3:22  When you have, when you have leaders in a position of power that are using derogatory language to anybody, towards anybody, it gives other people permission to hold that view. And what's happened in our society, in America right now, with the people who are in power is that they have no regard for anybody else, other than themselves, and so they're using language that is inflammatory and dangerous to be quite honest. Lesley Logan 3:50  Well, themselves and their donors. They do care about who (inaudible). Brad Crowell 3:54  I don't think they care about their donors. They only care about their donors' money. They don't care about anyone except for themselves. The that when they when you use inflammatory language, it creates division in our society, across the board, it creates fear. It also gives permission for people to hold judgmental views or give excuses for other people who are doing terrible things, right? And, you know, I don't, I don't think that everything was like, figured out 10 years ago either, you know, before we had a president who didn't give a shit. But I, but I, you know, in the sense that, like, maybe before, we were nice on the surface and racist underneath, you know, but, but, but now it's like, all out in the open, and people are openly, you know, the vitriol is killing me. It's just so frustrating because there's no, it's not that niceties are the right thing. There's no, there's no respect for human dignity, right? And so even though we disagree with other people, it doesn't change the fact that they are people. Right? Except now we are changing our perspectives on that, and we're alienating others. So, you know, whether that is, you know, a whether that's politically or, what did we say here, marginalized, politicized group or a member of society, right? So it could be political, you know, rhetoric, or it could be a marginalized part of society, you know, or it could be racism, or it could be another whole culture or another whole country, you know, it doesn't matter.Lesley Logan 5:32  Yeah, it's really, it's really, can be really frustrating. I had headaches. My, I was saying, we're sitting at a gym and I said, oh, I'm not getting stuff at Target. My dad goes, why? And I said, well, you know, they are not supportive of DEI and my dad goes, what's DEI? And I said, okay, well, explaining what DEI was and I said, you bought under DEI, you would be an older worker, which, it's harder to get a job. You are also a veteran. Like, like, that's DEI, making sure that you are treated with what you're like what we're supposed to be treated with like, that's part of it. Like, I'm DEI, I'm a female business owner. Now, do we have other privileges? Of course we do. But that doesn't mean that they're like what people, I think, don't understand is how, is how there are the people that they're thinking that they dislike, or that they're creating words around so they don't have to think that they're worthy so much of if they had the access and the rights, you would have better access and rights. You know that we're recording this right now, when the government is trying to get rid of Medicaid, and they have been lying to people, up and down all around that they're not getting rid of Medicaid, they're getting rid of it. And here's what happens, what that means is, if Medicaid doesn't exist, you think that just because you're on Medicaid, it won't affect you, it absolutely will, because your hospital usually runs off the funds of Medicaid, and so if the hospital doesn't have those funds, you might not have a hospital near you. So just because you're not on Medicaid doesn't mean you're not affected. And I think, like, why I like this day so much is like, we have to stop thinking that, because we're different than people, like, not only do they not matter, but like, like, it's not gonna affect us if nothing, if bad things happen to them. Everything is connected.Brad Crowell 7:07  Everything is connected. Lesley Logan 7:08  Everything is connected. Brad Crowell 7:13  Like, people are like, like, to put a very specific example on it, you know, with with the the abduction of farm workers that are happening in the fields. You know how you think that's not going to affect your food supply? It might not affect it today, but give it a couple of months, you know, like when, when ICE camps out and puts up a raid in, you know, in a community, guess who doesn't go to work? Anybody who is afraid. Anybody is afraid. Like they they arrested half the people at a meat packing plant, and the next day, it's not like the other half just decided to show up. No. Only 20% of the original workforce showed up for work the following day, because the rest of the people were like, What if they come and arrest me? Lesley Logan 7:58  Yeah. And so that means your meat is gonna be more expensive. It affects you. Brad Crowell 8:02  Affects us all. Lesley Logan 8:03  Everyone. And so, like, I, I really think that we need to take, I don't care what your religion is, or if you believe in religion at all, if we actually just follow, like, there that's a human fucking being, and they are worthy of living, and they should have dignity and respect, you know, and we would never want for them that to happen to them if it happened to us. Like, if you just look at that going, if you ever think, I'm glad that's not me, that is a sign that you are sitting in a bit more privilege, and you probably should just look at like, what can I do? We can't solve the world's problems. I'm not elected. You're not elected. If this fucking bill passes, we might not have elections. But like, we have to ask, What can I do? How can I change this? Can I be supportive of the people in my what's my bubble of influence? Right? And so not, I guess we'll get off our pedestal here in a second. But like, truly, part of being it till you see it, it will come to you if you love others, and you care about others, not people-pleasing, it's not overworking. It's none of that. It's just like, if you love others, if you love yourself, you can love others, and if you love others, like the world does change. And I think maybe what I'm really saying is like, what the fuck why don't people love themselves? Because if they love themselves, they'd see other people as human beings too. Brad Crowell 9:18  Yeah. Lesley Logan 9:20  We're still on tour, guys, I promise you, we're having a good time. In between the podcast on the news, I promise you, I promise you, we're hugging people. We're having a good time. Brad Crowell 9:33  Yeah, August 7th, that means that we are in Canada. We're actually probably in Kamloops today. Tomorrow, we got a day off. We're going to Banff. We're gonna be up by Lake Louise and seeing the beautiful lake up there. And then we're gonna go the next day to Calgary and teach, before coming back in to the US in Montana, where we're gonna go see the beauty of Glacier National Park. I've always wanted to see it. I'm so excited that we're gonna go up there. And then, yeah. We're gonna hit McCall Idaho on the way back home and teach.Lesley Logan 10:03  I tell you that my family, really, my family went to the tour, and they said, my aunt, my aunt, my auntie and uncle Mike, and they saw the tour, they saw we're in McCall, Idaho. And my uncle goes, you're gonna, you're gonna want to move there. And I was like, oh, like, a vacation home? He's like, no, like, you're gonna want to move there. And I'm like, I don't love the snow, so a vacation home. Got it. Noted. I'll save up.Brad Crowell 10:24  Well, I can't wait to see how beautiful it is.Lesley Logan 10:26  All this to say, like, come to McCall.Brad Crowell 10:28  Come to McCall, yeah, and then meet us in Salt Lake, and then we'll be back in Vegas. Lesley Logan 10:32  Oh, my God. What if people caravaned with us? You could do that.Brad Crowell 10:37  Yes, they could. I mean, we can have like like a roadie tour bus situation with, like, a band, going from show to show, it's possible. Lesley Logan 10:46  Oh, my God. Oh, my God. What's that movie?Brad Crowell 10:48  Oh, I know which one you mean. Lesley Logan 10:50  It was glasses. Almost Famous. Brad Crowell 10:53  Yes, that's the one.

It's a really good time. So go to crowsnestretreats.com, crowsnestretreats.com. Before we get into this convo you have with David Corbin, however, let's dig into this audience question that we had. I couldn't actually get the entire name of the person from the screenshot, so I'm pretty sure it was Rosie B something, something, numbers, numbers from YouTube asked, hi Lesley, I've heard you say that a spine corrector can be a good addition to your mat to your mat practice if you don't have space or the budget for the big equipment at your home. Can you, or have you talked about the different options for barrels or arcs? I did not realize that there were so many different choices, especially regarding the different options with angles and depths of the well. Great question. Lesley Logan 14:02  Yeah, I love this. We do have a video on, like, all the equipment, like, literally every piece of equipment. And I don't know if we did a video just on the barrels, but I know that we have, I know that our mastery and the basics on the barrels, you could hear a lot about barrels in that workshop that's on OPC, but let me just chat a little bit. So the spine corrector, if you could only buy one barrel, is the best one of the bunch, because you have two options for the extension on that one, and it allows you to do all the things you could do on a spine corrector. If you had a small barrel, that's nice if you have extra room. That and also it's really only for those who are have a tighter back or are a bit more fun sized, the smaller barrels for that. Brad Crowell 14:50  Yeah, we don't have a YouTube video. Lesley Logan 14:52  On just barrels. Brad Crowell 14:52  On just just. Lesley Logan 14:53  But there's that one video that has, like every single piece of equipment, it took us forever. We filmed every single piece. Brad Crowell 15:00  Yeah, so we've got a couple. One is called Pilates for Beginners: How to Choose the Right Equipment. We have.Lesley Logan 15:08  It's, it's another one. Anyways, I'll keep talking. It's another one. So it's, it's, why.Brad Crowell 15:14  Types of Pilates Equipment. Lesley Logan 15:16  Yes, that's the one. Brad Crowell 15:16  Pilates reformers, ladder, Pilates ladder, Tower and Guillotine. Lesley Logan 15:17  That's the one. Brad Crowell 15:17  I think a best Pilates equipment to improve your practice. That's reformer versus chair. Lesley Logan 15:27  No, this is really boring now. Brad Crowell 15:29  Yeah, good times. Anyway, just go onto our YouTube channel.Lesley Logan 15:31  Well, you didn't make it sound like it's easy to find. It exists and it literally is every single, we do a Reformer, a mat, we do the High Chair, we do the Cadillac, we do all the barrels. I explained each one, so, but my point is, if you can only buy one, get the Spine Corrector. If you're on the fun-sized, you can skip the Spine Corrector if you can only buy one thing and get the small barrel, but you will be limited a little bit. If you can get two things, and you're not so fun-sized or tight, then a Spine Correct and a Ladder Barrel, but a Ladder Barrel does take up space, and you specifically liked that I was saying that a Spine Corrector could help enhance your practice, your mat practice, if you don't have a lot of space. And the reason I say that is because you can do the arm series on there, the leg series on there, and then do your mat practice. Or you could do your mat practice and do your arm series and leg series. You could do swimming. You could do teaser. You could do a sported teaser. You're having a hard time getting your hips overhead. The Spine Corrector is really, really helpful for that. So I really do love that. And so I know I go into great detail about these things in our Mastering the Basics on the Barrels workshop on OPC, unfortunately, it's not free, but if you buy our Barrels Flashcards, just a little hint, there's a way to get that workshop on a discount (inaudible) barrels. And then I particularly like the Contrology brand because it is based off of the original pieces. And it's like they went through a lot of effort to get. Brad Crowell 16:44  To dig those up. Lesley Logan 16:45  To dig them up. And it's really amazing.Brad Crowell 16:46  Well, what you can actually do is go to opc.me/perks, opc.me/perks when you're on there, scroll down halfway, and you'll see a list of all the equipment that we recommend. And we actually have links to multiple arcs and barrels on that list that you know so you can go see the ones that Lesley did.Lesley Logan 16:47  The Contrology Spine Corrector is my ultimate favorite. Brad Crowell 17:10  Yeah, the Contrology is the one that we have at our house. But not everybody, you know, wants the bigger, heavier one. So we do have a couple of the arcs on there. Lesley Logan 17:19  Oh, well, we do have those and I will just say the reason I like a Contrology is actually do like the weight. The foam ones are great. If you are a studio teaching a class and you have to have a bunch of they're lightweight, they're easy to stack. But when you are doing your exercise, you have to put like little pads down. Oftentimes they slide around, or they could be too light, and they might move. And so I prefer the Contrology, and I know it's more than the East Coast arc and East Coast foam, and that's what everyone wants, but I'm just saying it's a little more comfortable to have a little little cushion. Anyways, you can send your questions in to BeItPod.com/questions you can text us at 309055534, still haven't secured the number that we can say, Be It Pod, but we'll get we're working on it. We just discovered it 20 minutes ago when we recorded the last episode. So it's coming. It's coming. Send your wins in, send your questions in to BeItPod.com/questions.Brad Crowell 18:10  Okay, welcome back now. Let's talk about Mr. David Corbin. David Corbin is a Wall Street Journal bestselling author of 14 books, a TEDx speaker and an award winning inventor in healthcare and wellness. And he's an ex, he describes himself as an ex-Woodstock attendee. Lesley Logan 18:29  I know, the original. Brad Crowell 18:30  He's also a father, grandfather and husband. He is known as the illuminator. David specializes in helping individuals and companies face it, follow it and fix it, transform challenges into opportunities, which is pretty amazing, actually. His work centers on taking ownership, accessing your inner wisdom and learning to tune into the you to achieve prosperity and fulfillment. Not included in our mini little bio that we wrote here is that David also, his inventor stuff. He created this thing called the Rejuvenation Station, and it's a box, okay? It's like a phone booth, but it's a little bit bigger, because you sit down inside of it, okay, but it's portable, and you can move it around. And you go in and you throw on some headphones, and you immerse yourself in another world for just a few minutes, right? Five to 10 minutes. There's like. Lesley Logan 19:19  I want one of these at the airport. Brad Crowell 19:22  Oh, it would be, I mean, where he, where he's been selling them into is hospitals for the staff. Lesley Logan 19:29  Oh, yeah. Brad Crowell 19:30  Because the staff never gets a moment to take a breather. And they could take five minutes and they come out and like he, he's, he said he's been able to measure their their stats before they go in and out of this thing. And he said, you know, where, where they're, you know, always in a high stress environment, this can help them with longevity of their job, of their enjoyment, of their life, of their of themselves. And actually, that's how I met him, when I was at an event, he had a booth, and he had the Rejuvenation Station there. And I just started, it was like, the end of the day, everyone was milling around or leaving, and I just started talking to him. And it was so, like, it was an easy conversation. Obviously, he's like, he's very, very intelligent. He's like, tells a lot of stories, a lot of fun to be around. And we started talking about his tool that he made, built and yeah, that's how we connected in the first place.Lesley Logan 20:21  It was, okay, and I think I said this on the pod, I usually pre-interview anyone who comes on. If I don't, it's because, like, we already know each other, we're friends, or I was on their pod and I liked them. You know what I mean? Like, it's very, it's, it's not often that, like, there's just someone on my calendar I've never, I know nothing about. And so I'm looking at like, the updates on his like file for the pod, and I see a business card, and I'm like, this looks like Brad's thumb. I think it's Brad's thumb. Who is this guy? And he didn't know you. He didn't remember.Brad Crowell 20:56  No, he didn't remember, he shouldn't have even known my name, but like, he might remember us talking, maybe if he saw my face but like, yeah.Lesley Logan 21:01  It was, it was hilarious, and it was so I think it was after all of it was said and done, the whole thing was done I hit, ended the record of the interview, and he and I are chatting, and Brad comes in, because I think it was laughing or whatever, and that's we discovered that you met him and like, you should be on our show. And he's like, okay.Brad Crowell 21:19  Yes. Lesley Logan 21:20  Anyways, I'm glad it worked out. I really liked a lot of things he had to say, I think this is an episode that there's a lot of nuggets. Brad Crowell 21:29  A lot of nuggets. Lesley Logan 21:31  A lot of nuggets. And he said, you can't solve everything you face, but you can't solve anything unless you face it. And of course, like, isn't that so good?Brad Crowell 21:40  It's so obvious. But like, when you say it, you're like, oh, I, am I avoiding things? It's great.Lesley Logan 21:46  Yeah, yeah, yeah. And he, he said, believes his secret sauce is being awake, aware, alert, and that kind of, like, I think that that, like, probably what led to his mindset around it helped others avoid when that's where he uses his model, face, it, follow it, fix it. You know. And so, and when you think about that in your in anything that you're doing, face it, follow it, fix it. And then it allows you to take more action. It allows you to stop avoiding things. It can be used in personal life and professional life. It can be used in a project that doesn't go well, or a conversation that didn't go well. I think it's just brilliant.Brad Crowell 22:19  Yeah, it's, it's clear and concise. It's something that you can remember. When he was talking about how he works with these companies, he said that you can apply this personally to yourself, or you can apply it to a team or organization or company, face it, follow it, fix it, you know, and, and he had a bunch of examples that I, you know, I thought were really helpful. And he talked about one that, one company that he consulted for, that rhymes with schmamanos, I think, is what he said. And, you know, he said, you know, as they started to dig in, they started to realize that they're not a pizza company, they're a crisis management company. And he said, it all came down to how they answer the phone and what they recommend, and when they, when they, when they faced the problem they had, and they followed it, they started figuring out, then they fixed it, and that was a fix. And it's funny, because, you know, we tell that all the time, like, you are, you know, you're not, quote- unquote, just a Pilates teacher, you know, end quote, you're that's not enough. You know, that's like, people, first off, don't know what Pilates is. Second off, they.Lesley Logan 23:23  Not anymore. They used to, I used to think there would be a day when they know what it is, and now, no.Brad Crowell 23:27  I mean that, that aside, that's not the point. They have their preconceived notion of what Pilates is, okay? And so if you just say, oh, I'm a Pilates teacher, then you're trusting that they know what that actually means, right? As opposed to having a clear response of like, oh, I help such and such type of people do these things you know in their life through Pilates, now they're like, wow, I didn't know Pilates could help people like that, you know, and that and you described me. I want that for me, right? And so when you start to face it, follow it, fix it, you might actually have a whole new view on what it is that you do. You know, I thought that was pretty cool. Lesley Logan 23:27  I agree. I loved it. Brad Crowell 24:01  Yeah, one of the things that I really like, first off, he's very quippy, because he writes books, right? So he's got 14 books. So every book, you know, he tries to make a short, concise, punchy, right, memorable. And so, like, that's the kind of guy that, when you get him on a topic, and especially if he knows a lot about the topic, because he did a whole lot of research to write that book, you know, you're going to get these kinds of things. So one of his books he talks about, his Brand Slaughter. And I just started laughing, because, like, what a visual, right? You're slaughtering your brand, you know, but, but he talks about just simply actions that you're doing that are create, that are contradicting what you intended, or like they're they're not bringing around about the desired results and and you know, same thing, like you can apply the concept of brand slaughter to the what I was just talking about where they're answering the phone, and instead of the response being, oh, well, what kind of pizza do you want? They're like, I don't I don't know what I want. Instead of that, you know, that is brand slaughter, right? Because you're now pushing the decision back on this person who doesn't know what they need in the first place, and they don't know what their options are. So what are they going to do? They're not gonna do anything, right? So that that creates brand slaughter, as opposed to being suggestive and saying, oh, well, for people in your situation where it's chaos and you just need a decision right now, you should go with option number two. And then they get to say, that sounds great, because they just need help. What's option number two? And you can sell and, by the way, if you need this extra stuff, you can upsell them all that kind of a thing, right? So it's, he said, you're either living your brand or you're committing brand slaughter. You know. He said, when individuals or companies allow their brand or reputation be undermined or, quote-unquote, killed by actions or behaviors that do not align with their desired image. And, you know, he said he actually has all these acronyms and all this stuff. And he and he, like, he like, flipped through them, and I didn't even follow them at all. And you laughingly said, I've A.D.D. so I don't know what you just said, because I was stuck on the first one, but he said he created a following, the following flow, to teach companies and people how to maintain their own identity. IDB with the ABI to the SBI divided by the MBV. I don't remember, but basically he said, you take your intended brand descriptors, which is how you want to be described, and then you audit the brand integrity you're assessing if you are living up to your intended brand descriptor. So if this is what you say you're doing, are you actually doing it, right? So, and then the second, the third step is review your strategic brand initiative or SBI. So these are the actions taken to close the gap between your intentions and your actions, right? And then finally, you have, when you do those three steps, you're creating massive brand value, right? The result of consistently applying those three steps. So he said, everything you do is either living into how you want to be described, or it's not.Lesley Logan 27:14  Just like that. Brad Crowell 27:15  Just like that, we just solved it. Lesley Logan 27:17  Yep, and now sometimes we just need to hear like, not sugar coated in that way, you know.Brad Crowell 27:22  Yeah, fascinating. I mean. And he knows his stuff so well that he just like, bam, bam, bam, bam. Lesley Logan 27:27  I know he really did. And I was just like, come on. I was like, oh yeah, oh yeah, hold on. I'm still over here. What is that? And then acronyms are really hard for me to like, remember all of them? It's just like, not. Brad Crowell 27:38  I know, even the ones I just read, if I didn't have them in front of me, I'd be like, what?Lesley Logan 27:41  Yeah, no, I, and to be honest, also running in the back of my mind with my ADHD, was like, who is this man? I mean that, like, I loved the whole interview but the whole time I'm like, who the fuck is this guy? Why is he?Brad Crowell 28:00  I love that. I think that's so fun. Also, too, like, from when I met him to when the interview finally happened was months, like, six months more, I don't know, like, so, like, I read his name, and I was like, I know him but I can't remember.Lesley Logan 28:12  You met him, you went to, you went to that event, like, a year ago, it was summer of last year, and then I interviewed him like beginning of this year. So, it's definitely six months.Brad Crowell 28:16  So it was more than six months later. Yeah and fascinating. Well, anyway, stick around. We got a little bit more to dig into from David Corbin, so we'll be right back with those Be It Action Items. Brad Crowell 28:36  Okay, welcome back. Let's talk about those Be It Action Items from David Corbin, we've got bold executable, intrinsic or targeted action items that we could take away from your convo with him. David shared a metaphor, a metaphorical exercise he introduced during his TEDx talk using imaginary LSD, which I think is hilarious, because the whole time he's talking groovy and talking about being a hippie and going to Woodstock, and he's like, yeah, I didn't save he told everyone in the TEDx, 500 people, he's like, I saved y'all some LSD from when I went to Woodstock, which, who knows when that even was.Lesley Logan 29:07  It's like the 60s babe. Brad Crowell 29:09  Right, well, because they also had a new one in the 90s. So I'm assuming he was talking about the 60s. Lesley Logan 29:17  The 60s. The 90s was burnt down to the ground. Brad Crowell 29:20  It doesn't change the fact he could have been there. But he said, he said, he said, you're going to take this imaginary LSD, and I don't know what he passed out, but he actually passed something out. So people, literally, I'm pretty sure they took something. Lesley Logan 29:22  It's like a little piece. I thought it's like a little piece of paper, isn't LSD, like a little paper? Brad Crowell 29:23  Like a tab, could be, I'm sure it comes in different forms. But anyway, he said you're going to, here's what's going to happen when you take this imaginary LSD, you're going to imagine that your business can talk back to you.Lesley Logan 29:44  Oh, because when you're on LSD.Brad Crowell 29:47  Yeah, things can happen. He said, so here's what you're going to ask your businessLesley Logan 29:50  We clearly have not done LSD, we have no idea what we're talking about. Brad Crowell 29:51  He said, ask your business. What do you need me to do and who do you need me to be? So he said, make two lists, job functions and character traits. What do you need me to do and who do you need me to be? He said, then get naked of ego. He actually said, just says, get naked, but not with your clothes off. That's, he said, that's the easy part. He said the hard part is get naked of your ego and rate yourself on a scale of one to 10 across those what do you need me to do and who do you need me to be? He said, identify the gaps and take actions to close them. So.Lesley Logan 29:54  Okay, LSD, definitely can like, be a little piece of paper or like a stamp. Brad Crowell 30:23  Oh, can be like a stamp. Lesley Logan 30:28  Yes, I do remember, like, during the day or years of like, be careful. Like someone gives you, like, a little sticker, it can stick on your tongue and dissolve. It can be in a pill form. I am seeing this, but it, like, a lot of it is like sheets of, like, wild colors and like, like, oh, do you remember the elephants in Winnie, the Pooh, the Heffalumps, the Heffalumps, the Heffalumps, yeah, the Heffalumps. I think they're called. They were kind of like spooky and weird. I think Winnie the Pooh is on LSD. Brad Crowell 31:03  Oh, yeah, you're right, Heffalump. Lesley Logan 31:05  Heffalumps. Brad Crowell 31:05  Heffalump. Lesley Logan 31:06  Heffalumps. Yeah. Looking at this, maybe he was on, maybe he took LSD in my cartoon. You know, they always sort of like supplementally, anyways, we are off topic. Brad Crowell 31:15  Well, okay, David Corbin did his TEDx Talk called Woodstock Wisdom in January of 2023, so you're welcome to go watch it. I'm sure it's a trip. Maybe pun intended, but he but he said when you can do this, when you can compare, when you can let go of your ego, and you can actually take rate yourself and then be able to take action on that you you can no longer complain about market conditions and competition. You take control of the differences, the distances, and you close those gaps that your business told you you need to close. He said, as you do, you increase your competence, which brings up your confidence, which brings up your competence, which brings up your confidence. And it's a cycle, you know. What about you? What about you? Lesley Logan 31:55  Okay, this is really fun, because he says he doesn't journal. And I was like, yeah, because I always tell people, like, don't journal, but we have the people who've said to journal since episode like 50 have done a really good job, because I tell them, you better tell us fucking journal. But he said he meditates. And I was like, okay, like, because I have a hard time meditating. And he said, so he shared his process. He said, you sit down with a piece of paper and you write an issue or question at the top. So piece of paper, issue or question at the top, you set your timer for 22 minutes, and then, while we're in a meditative state with a question at the top, you write with your eyes closed. And this allows the download of insights to come through from your unconscious mind and universal consciousness on to the paper. And so the goal is you dwell upon the question and you let your intuition provide answers. So because you can't see it, you can't self-edit. He must have great handwriting. Brad Crowell 32:52  No, I'm sure he's writing over top of his own stuff. It really doesn't matter. You can literally write in the same spot, right, because the point of it is not for you to go back and read it later. The point of it is to get it out of your head. Lesley Logan 33:04  Yeah. So he, well, it's kind of like Morning Pages, but with your eyes closed. So he said, the answer to everything you got is already within you. Don't tune into YouTube. Tune in to you. It's another quip. I just I was like, this is so much fun. This is a great interview. Who is he? Tune into you. You know a lot more than you give yourself credit for. And I just if you, if you really haven't listened to it, you've got to listen to it. I'm telling you I joke that I'm like, who is this guy? But, like, he's a bit like a 14 books, a great TEDx Talk.Brad Crowell 33:36  Fascinating. It's a really great conversation. It's fun to meet him in person.Lesley Logan 33:40  Even if you buy nothing out of his stuff. Like, if you just, like, listen over and over again to like the things he's saying you're you're going to, like, change your life. Because if you just think about, like, am I in alignment with my brand or am I curating brand slaughter or am I like, what if you could solve your problems with just writing it down and then writing it over the top with your eyes closed? I think this is really cool. Lesley Logan 34:01  So, I'm Lesley Logan. Brad Crowell 34:02  And I'm Brad Crowell. Lesley Logan 34:03  Thank you so much for listening to our pod.

Are you a fan of antique furniture? There are many reasons why people love antique furniture, especially in today's modern era. All great trend goes through a cycle. Something worthless becomes treasured and ultimately enters the vintage category. Antique stuff from previous generations becomes valuables. The same goes true for high chairs. The styles we consider fashionable now are influenced by masterpieces from the past. Those who rejected the inexpensive, plastic high chairs of the 1990s and early 2000s discovered satisfaction in the opposite. So: Where did these antique high chairs come from?

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 guests 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 dig into the feeling convo I had with Sara Frenza in our last episode. If you haven't yet listened that episode, feel free to pause this now and go back and listen to that one and then come back and join us. And by the way, if this is the first episode you've ever listened to. Hi, I's me and Lesley Logan. Hello.Brad Crowell  Oh, hey, my name is Brad Crowell.Lesley Logan  I already introduced you. I know. I know. So but I just thought like maybe every once in a while. I'll just say who I am just in case. There's a first timer. Hello. (Brad: Hey.) Welcome to the Be It pod.Brad Crowell  Yeah, we're so glad you're here.Lesley Logan  This is the recap. It is a Cliff's Notes version. And our opinions of what happened on Monday's pod.Brad Crowell  Yeah, we're summarizing, pulling out a couple talking points, expo... expounding on them, all those things. (Lesley: I like inexpoundsion ...) Inexpoundsion? That's not word, 100% not a word. I wouldn't even know how to spell it, expound s i o n. (Lesley: Yeah.) expound... No, no. (Lesley: Maybe ...) Expoundsion. (Lesley: Maybe it's x i o n, expoundxion) Expansion. (Lesley: Ah, that's such a boring word.) It's a boring word. We're making them up ... Well, before we make up more new words. A couple quick announcements here.Lesley Logan  We just drove back from the POT, Balanced Body's Pilates On Tour at Monterrey. And the flashcards went like hotcakes. (Brad: Oh, yeah.) Oh, yeah. You guys, it's just so fun to see how you guys use these flashcards in your life. I love, I love it. I love showing them to you. I love you getting your hot hands on them.Brad Crowell  We're talking about the Pilates flashcards that Lesley made. Just in case you're the first timer we've ever known ...Lesley Logan  Oh, yeah. Just in case you're Tracy from Michigan. Is that what they say? (Brad: Yeah, Tracy.) This is for Tracy.Brad Crowell  I think we're gonna call it Bob. Because Bob is going to be the husband of someone who does Pilates and he just doesn't have a clue. (Lesley: Okay, we can call him Bob.) Where's Bob from? (Lesley: Well, I'm just gonna, like ...) Do we not like Bob?Lesley Logan  ... Hi, males. If you're listening, there's like, it's like we have a lot of amazing women and a few good men. So, I think it could be like Cheryl from Wisconsin.Brad Crowell  Okay, Cheryl from Wisconsin.Lesley Logan  Yeah, she's pi curious.Brad Crowell  She's pi curious.Lesley Logan  And you need our Mat flashcards. Anyways, we, maybe we'll change her every name every week. But anyways, these are my flashcards the links in the show notes. We are about and this brings us to the next exciting news. (Brad: Yeah.) We are literally days away from announcing deck number four. Now, (Brad: days away) Cheryl's if you're pi curious you don't have a Wunda Chair this might not apply to you but it might apply to your teacher. So we I finished the chairs flashcard and when I say chairs plural is because there were multiple, (Brad: three) yeah I'm also there's pural chairs but ... (Brad: If you're a chair curious.) Yeah. There's there's a High Chair also there's an Electric Chair. There is an Arm Chair also known as a Baby Chair. And there is a Wunda Chair which is always called that. SoBrad Crowell  Unless you get the exo chair ...Lesley Logan  Which they people, well that's still a Wunda Chair, (Brad: I know.) but we've call it, I have an exo chair. (Brad: Yeah.) So you can have that chair. You can have ...Brad Crowell  ... like there's 50 names for them all. But we call them the chairs.Lesley Logan  You can have a homemade chair. You can have whatever chair has springs to it. I've seen them all and I did a very thorough job. I like to pat myself on the back and making sure our how to use this deck card has information on how to apply whatever your chair is to whatever chair I have and if you're like, "But Lesley I don't have a High Chair and a Baby Chair." I don't care. If you might have access to them ...Brad Crowell  Right. You might have access to one, at some point you might want to get one and totally okay. (Lesley: Well) It's just consider an extra information.Lesley Logan  Welcome to be it till you see it. (Brad: That's right.) I'm going to help you be the person who knows how to teach equipment until you see that equipment. So, it is and then just in case you are someone who needs to know how many cards, 72% of this deck is for Wunda Chair so that is more than two thirds. So no excuses, get on the waitlist at opc.me/flashcard waitlistBrad Crowell  opc.me/flashcard waitlistLesley Logan  that is hard slash flash.Brad Crowell  I know the slash discussion really messed up me last time, too.Lesley Logan  That's that that was a voice. I went to a sort of speaking, what do you call it speech therapy? (Brad: Yeah.) That was not in my list of things to work on any ... (Brad: No, slash flash.) Anyways, according to last week's episode, Brad said we're only gonna let the waitlist people know. SoBrad Crowell  Yeah, get on the waitlist because well the waitlist people are gonna get the link.Lesley Logan  Yeah, to the presale. (Brad: That's right.) Yeah, so you're gonna get the best deal. (Brad: Yeah.) And if you're not on the waitlist, you are not going to get that link or the best deal you're gonna you're gonna hear about it when it ships and you'll pay full price. (Brad: Love it.) So and then finally, one last exciting news. The doors have opened for our October retreat. And if you know, you know, (Brad: I ykyk.) I wonder how many times we can just say that?Brad Crowell  What retreat? Send us a DM. It's gonna be amazing.Lesley Logan  What retreat? Keep listening to the episodes, Cheryl. (Brad: Yeah.) We talk about the retreat. (Brad: Yeah, we do.)Brad Crowell  Okay, so what was this week's question? You got a listener asking, Are you ever in the Washington area, teaching Workshops? And they mean, like, Seattle, Washington.Lesley Logan  Yeah. Yeah. So I was like, oh, because it was, you know, we, they've been hearing about our tour. And we've been like, talking about maybe doing another tour.Brad Crowell  Right. So every year we do have tour up to out to Philadelphia from the West Coast (Lesley: It's out and up.) Well, yeah, it's out and back. So we do like, sometimes you go South first. Sometimes you go North first. But. it's like an epic saga of a drive.Lesley Logan  I did like the going South first. I mean, I don't know (Brad: Thank you with that.) that we probably can't do it again. No, because that whole weather system was a disaster.Brad Crowell  I know. It would have definitely served us better if we had been South on the way home.Lesley Logan  Yeah, yeah. So we'll do that.Brad Crowell  We'll figure it out. We'll figure it out.Lesley Logan  We'll flip it and reverse it.Brad Crowell  Yeah. Anyway, the (Lesley: That's a Missy Elliott) Oh, here you go. (Lesley: lyric)But rumor is that we may be doing a West Coast tour. So it could hypothetically start in Vegas, and go south to San Diego, and go all the way up the west coast of Vancouver before coming back down.Lesley Logan  Don't make too many promises.Brad Crowell  I said, hypothetically, potentially, fingers crossed, all the things. If this is something that would be of interest to you, we need to know. (Lesley: So if you either ...) This is not ... planned yet.Lesley Logan  I want to participate in the West Coast tour as a as a client, or you want to host a spot as a as a host to use the same word in the sentence. You have to hit us up because we are (Brad: Yeah, we need to know.) we will actually be planning it like right now. (Brad: Yeah.) And and so you know, get get in on it. Because people always like, "How did you pick that spot? Why are you going to that place?" Because they asked. (Brad: Yeah.) If you want things in this world. Y'all, you have to ask for them. Like I'm like let this be a lesson to you. People like, "How did you get that spot?" I applied. Like I applied, no one is calling me and offered me random things. They're just not. So everything you ever see that I've ever done I've applied for. (Brad: That's true. Very true.) So if you want in on this tour, and you want us to hit up your town, then you know any which way you want to contact us so it's gonna be fine. (Brad: Yeah, so) How about TikTok? I'm be really honest. I have not ...Brad Crowell  No, just chat to us. Go to opc.me/chatLesley Logan  Oh, that's a good spot. (Brad: Yeah.) Yeah. Yeah. Okay, cool.Brad Crowell  Amazing. Great question. Thanks for asking.Lesley Logan  You know, you guys can ask questions. (Brad: Like any question.) Any question. (Brad: All the time opc.me/chat.) It can be life, fitness, business. We don't really care. We just like to answer your questions. (Brad: Yeah.) We have all this information ...Brad Crowell  We'd love knowing that you listen, we love connecting with you. (Lesley: Yeah.) And it's so fun.Lesley Logan  You know what I want? This is what I want from you guys. This is my ask. I want I want questions like a longtime listener, first time caller like I want them. (Brad: Cool. Yeah.) Longtime listener, first time caller. I want to read those.Brad Crowell  Would that be, would you want to actually call, leave a voicemail?Lesley Logan  Yeah, we need a phone number.Brad Crowell  Tell us about that. If you would if that's something of interest to you, let us know (Lesley: Yeah.) on the chat. (Lesley: Yeah.) And then we'll set up a phone call number because I don't want to set it up unless you want it. (Lesley: Yeah. But ...) opc.me/chatLesley Logan  But if you want to be like don't tell remember like longtime listener, first time caller? (Brad: Yeah.) Like I want that. I want that, that's what I want. You gotta tell me if you want it. (Brad: I want it.) I want it and well it's a two way re... I guess it's a three way since we're like listeners. You and me. I don't know. Brad Crowell  Okay, now let's talk about Sara Frenza. A mom, published fitness model, a writer and a life transformation coach. Sara Frenza is on a mission to help women make their health and their fitness a priority. She's passionate about not taking the quick fix, but working for long term solutions and passing along the information to the next generation.Lesley Logan  Yeah, so I actually really, I really love Sara. She's such a sweetheart. And I hope you all heard her journey, because I think it can be really easy to think, "Oh, must be nice for them. Those people who are on these pods that transform their career." But y'all can have it, you all can have that for yourself. One thing I love that she had talked about was like making your health and fitness a priority. So you're like, simplest way to think about this is because like, "Uh huh, Lesley got it. Nice, Sara, thanks for that. Duh." But it's like your health and fitness is not a fad diet. Like, it's just not. So the more you can think about your health and fitness as your priority as part of your lifestyle, as part of the transformation that's always ongoing. We had Keri Ford on here and she talked with this mountain with no peak, like your health and fitness is a mountain without a peak doesn't mean you just like keep going, going, going without like ever celebrating an achievement. But it isn't like, okay, for the next two weeks, I'm gonna go on a sugar detox, and then I'm gonna be great. It's like, well, then you will have had not had sugar for two weeks. But if you go back to the way you lived, then that's not exactly taking your health fitness and making it a priority. So (Brad: That's true.) Yeah. And I'm not advocating that you ditch sugar or you don't. I'm just saying like, how looking at your health and fitness if you look at like, when I was an ambassador for Lululemon, they made us do goals was like personal, health and fitness, professional. (Brad: interesting) And you had three could not have more than three bullet points under each one of those things. And then you had goals for that those bullet points that are one year, five year and 10 year. Of course, I started with a 10 year. But the point is, is that if we have too many goals, you don't get anything done. And also, if you aren't building upon the achievements that you had, it's kind of like, "I'm doing this today. I'm doing this tomorrow. I'm doing this over here." It's like it's all it comes kind of like a one and done thing and so you just kind of build on it. So maybe maybe you want to do a triathlon. I don't but let's just say that's what your goal is. So then you work backwards until you to one year from now. Well, are you running already? Can you bike? Can you swim? Like one of those things probably you're not doing. So make that a goal. And then (Brad: Sure.) sort of add that in. And then over time you get to like the five year goal and maybe you're doing a mini triathlon and then you're working your way up. So just I just really loved that she brought that up because your health and fitness is not a fad diet.Brad Crowell  Yeah, I also what the fad diets. It's it's called that because you you know it's not gonna last.Lesley Logan  It's like a, it's like It's like fast fashion. Do not make your health and fitness the same as fast fashion. Fast fashion.Brad Crowell  Yeah. Oh, I was gonna talk about the cayan and like lemonade fucking iced tea thing, whatever. (Lesley: Oh.) Do you remember that? Like when was suddenly drinking that. (Lesley: What is that called ... Okay.) I can't remember. But like, that's the kind of like that is not real.Lesley Logan  So, I worked in, so I used to work at Fred Segal. And some of the girls were on the diet coke and iceberg lettuce diet. (Brad: Amazing.) These are not proponent things, do not try them. Some, other people ...Brad Crowell  They are not winners. (Lesley: Other people ...) That's why they're fads.Lesley Logan  cigarettes and coffeeBrad Crowell  That was mine through college.Lesley Logan  Yeah. So um, but you know, I mean, look, everyone, my grandmother and in my entire life, I learned about every single diet there was I know all the diet pills and all the things and I can tell you right now, none of them are sustainable. So instead of looking for a fad diet, look for the life transformation that you can sustain and works with you because it has to work with your life.Brad Crowell  Yeah, exactly. And I think that's, it's a mindset shift, right? There's no quick fix here. This is a long term decision that you're making for yourself. It's as simple as that, which is really hard. But I know it's, it's like,Lesley Logan  I know, you're like easier said than done, guys. We know. We also have bodies. We also understand,Brad Crowell  Hi, I'm a floating entity. I'm not a fishball.Lesley Logan  We hit 40. We got it. We know.Brad Crowell  All right. One thing I really loved was about like she started to talk about the support systems that you make and sharing, not only sharing that you're on a path, but also allowing people to support you in that journey. Right. And, you know, specifically she said, You can't do anything alone, you have to share your journey along the way. Because maybe that's with your spouse, your significant other, your kids, your family, parents, whatever, your co workers, your friends, you know, the reality is that if I think I think when we were doing the Full Body in 15 Pilates challenge, last year, we had a lot of success with the participants who went back to their family and said, "Hey, next week on Monday, Wednesday, Friday at, you know, 5pm, for 30 minutes, I'm busy. I'm going to be taking care of me." And the the family was like, "Hey, cool." And so what happened was, the kids knew already the spouse knew already, you know, mom's busy, she's doing this thing. AndLesley Logan  Or dads busy, or somebody is busy.Brad Crowell  Yeah, I mean, in our case, most of our audience was women for that. (Lesley: Yeah.) Maybe I might have been the only guy in there.Lesley Logan  No, we had two husbands. (Brad: Oh, that's right. That when we had ...) That why, that's why where a lot of women, amazing women and a few good men. Thanks, Cheryl.Brad Crowell  Well, the point is, you know, when they were explicit, and sharing what their intentions were, and what they were doing, and why they were doing it, they got the support that they needed from the people around them. And the same thing goes for you, if you are able to voice that to, I don't know, maybe your coworkers go out to dinner every day after work or something or, you know, you are taking a break from drinking and you live with someone, you know, and you can share that with them, they can encourage you and help you in that path, whatever it is, that is that you're trying to achieve for your health. When you share that with the people around you, then now a) you're not hiding it, and b) they can help actually support you.Lesley Logan  And also, they can also help support you like there's accountability there. And and and you can't resent them for, they can't read your mind. So (Brad: Sure.) if you (Brad: Sure.) if you don't tell people, "I'm taking a break from drinking." Then they, if they go, "Hey, can I get you a beer." You're like, "I'm trying to drink." And then you like have this whole internal conversation with yourself. And the truth is that they didn't know. So they have to on your team actually just wrote about this on, the time recording, so I wrote an Instagram post about my birthday. So obviously, this is way after my birthday. But for my birthday week, I actually wanted to take off several days. I just want to take off Wednesday to Saturday. So I normally take Saturday's off. I normally got two calls on Monday and Tuesday but Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, there's like commitments that I usually have. So I wanted to have those off. Now, I couldn't just block them off without telling people. I mean I could but that would have just worked like people would have been like, "Hey, can I do this? Hey, can I do this?" And like, you know, I would be like, "I'm taking the time off? Don't you understand?" It's like so I actually just months ago, I said, hey to my assistant. I said, "Hey, I want to take this time off for my birthday. So I can just really enjoy, like resting, relaxing, do whatever I want, whatever it is I want." And I told that my assistant, which helped me tell the team, which helped me block things out so that everything is gonna get done on time. No one is gonna be like, "Where's Lesley?" And I actually can take time off without anyone bothering me. It's so exciting. (Brad: Yeah.) So but it does require you communicate these things. And I know that can be like, I want to tell people my goals are in case I like screwed up. If the people around you are going to judge you because you said you weren't going to have a drink that week. And then you did. That's probably a sign that they're not on your team.Brad Crowell  Yeah, they're definitely not supporting you. It's true. It's true. 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 Sara Frenza.Lesley Logan  She had seven action items for you guys. And I really love these because some people think that meal prepping is like only somebody who has a really organized schedule can do but ...Brad Crowell  Or like people who are like, trying to be in weight training competitions do.Lesley Logan  Yeah. But like you grew up with some meal prepping, your mom did some stuff. And (Brad: I did. Yeah.) Yeah. And I remember there was a time when my parents had like, planned things out. And then there was a day where it was like leftover day, which is obviously the day that I hated. But then there was the then there was ...Brad Crowell  I love leftovers.Oh, my God. (Brad: That's great.) Your parents must have not had you eat lamb and beans. Anyway, (Brad: No, lamb and beans in my house ...) So I'm gonna, I'm gonna read these out, seven meal prep tips. So step one ...Lesley Logan  Plan out your meals.Brad Crowell  Yeah, this is not very complicated. Just you need to know what meals you're cooking for.Lesley Logan  Yeah. Number two, meal prep in batches. So she talked about making two proteins and then two carbs and just kind of mix and matching. Think of this ladies. I put on my college y'all. But like, I'm thinking like all my magazines, capsule wardrobe. Capsule Wardrobe, right? (Brad: Oh, yeah.) You have like, one you have a pair of pants, two different pairs of pants, two different tops, and like a bold statement something and like the magazine (Brad: couple pair of shoes) shows you seven ways to put these two things together. So that's how (Brad: That's right.) it, right. So literally, if you capsule wardrobe, you can meal prep, you've already done it. You've already figured this out.Brad Crowell  Yeah. And she actually talked about making like chicken and I can't remember what the other protein was and then two types of carbs so she made sweet potato fries and rice. And she said she took the chicken and made a buffalo chicken salad. She you could pull the chicken apart and make like a graded chicken thing.Lesley Logan  If you're watching this on YouTube Brad is mimicking (Brad: Yeah, I'm mimicking ...) like these claws that we have. So you can basically like for non cook, (Brad: shred the chicken) you just take a bunch of chicken breasts, you just cook them all on a on a pan at some temperature and then some of those can be chopped up for a chop salad, some of those key pulled apart for a pulled chicken sandwich buffalo sauce like. Right. (Brad: Yeah.) Yeah.Brad Crowell  And it was crazy. She was like yeah, I use the and she cooked them all at the same time. She had an instant pot going you know the oven going up and going and whatever I don't remember and she's like boom cooked all these things and was able to take the proteins on the carbs and then mix max, mix match and creating these different meals. And then step threeLesley Logan  is freeze the extrasBrad Crowell  Yeah, so she specifically talked about stuffed peppers and brown rice and she said yeah, you know I overcook on the brown rice on purpose. And she made and a couple extra stuffed peppers and then she throws them on the freezer.Lesley Logan  Yeah. (Brad: Yeah.) And so if you're like, "Ah my fridge is really small." Yeah, ours too. (Brad: ... Yeah.) It doesn't fit a pizza box and ... (Brad: No, it literally doesn't.) That's a contention in this house. But what if you just tried like yes she said chicken maybe you're a vegan? What if you just gave, what if like you just beat it till you saw it when it came (Brad: beat it?) yeah, beat it. Just to beat it. Anyways, so what if you just tried it like what if it was possible to whatever your dietary restrictions are? What if you actually just try to plan the meals out and then actually grocery shop for those meals and then try to cook all the stuff and one day so that it was ready to go?Brad Crowell  Yeah, my, the store you were talking about ... (Lesley: We haven't finish the seven steps guys.) The last episode was my mom and her friend used to meal prep, because both families had three kids with crazy soccer field baseball field schedules, and, you know, the spouses were working, and then we'd get together on one weekend, a month, and they would literally make every meal for the entire month.Lesley Logan  Yeah, I mean, this is a house that has two fridges. SoBrad Crowell  No, my mom had an extra freezer in the basement that was like one of those like leftover freezers (Lesley: Two fridges and a freezers?) Two fridges and a freezer.Lesley Logan  Okay, so a month is the month, (Brad: And that's very ambitious, that's very ambitious.) I would go, do one week at a time, or maybe just three days. And then like, go from there. So like, you know, baby step this to badassness. But I love that I think that's great, because actually what it made me just realize, and I didn't even know this until now, you guys, if you are running out of time to work on things that are gonna help you be it till you see it. And it's called cooking that is taking up all the time, meal prep. (Brad: meal prep) If you could gain, if you could spend two hours on a Sunday, or Saturday, and you could gain back 30 minutes every night, five minutes a week, like when what like, you don't need two hours at a time to work on your goal because that is overwhelming. Especially there's so much uncertainty, there's a lot of fear in there things take the time to get it. So if you had 30 minutes every day to dedicate to moving yourself forward, and you just spent one afternoon prepping like a badass on the meals. Like imagine what you could get done.Brad Crowell  Yeah, and my you know, today my parents are empty nesters. Right. And but they still meal meal prep. And it's really well the way they do is really impressive. So if my mom (Lesley: ... are doing this.) if my mom ever has to chop up like a pepper, she'll chop the entire pepper, she'll chop the entire onion. And then what she does is she takes them and puts it on a mini cookie sheet and lays them out so they're not touching each other. And then she puts them in the freezer for like 20 or 30 minutes, and then takes it out of the freezer and puts them in a ziplock and then she throws the whole ziplock into now it's condensed, they're touching each other, but they're partly frozen. So they don't freeze into a big block, basically.Lesley Logan  Oh, that'show you do it. (Brad: Yeah.) Well, that's ...Brad Crowell  And then if she ever needs that ingredient, she's already got pre chop to the right size stuff. And then they do the same thing with chicken, they'll go to the store, they'll get a whole bunch of chicken. And what they'll actually do is they'll take like the bigger chicken breasts, and they'll they'll slice them up into smaller pieces. And then at the beginning of the week, they'll pull out like, you know, six chicken, you know, cutlets that they basically have frozen. And so they know three meals that week, they'll be able to have chicken because it's thought out. (Lesley: Yeah. So ...) So super quick and easy.Lesley Logan  For the for the people who are like, "Hey, you stopped at the third step."Brad Crowell  Yeah. Let's go on to step four.Lesley Logan  Yeah, create multiple meals out of the protein and carbs. So this is where you get to go back to the plan that you had and go oh, like I was able to like this doesn't have to be like I have a chicken breast every night. Like you're prepping for some sort of weight training thing. It can be like, as Brad mentioned, pulled chicken chopped chicken. It could be there's a sauce on this one. This one's in a salad. This one's in a burrito. You know, this one's in a sandwich. So then pre chop all fruits and vegetables, prepackaged for easy grabbing and go. I just skipped ahead all thingsBrad Crowell  Well, that was a little different. So she's actually talking about the full meal. (Lesley: Oh, you're right. You're right.) Like breakfast, lunch, dinner. She so just think about how much time we spent prepping food during the day. And I ...Lesley Logan  This is like definitely if you're about to, (Brad: It's a time stuff.) well, this is like packing lunches. This is all (Brad: Sure.) kind of stuff. So you all might need to go to like the container store or the target section with all the lovely containers and then you pull them out and then go okay, there's lunches, okay, this means a nice things. Okay, this thing is this thing, and then you could put them in a frigerator and put a post it note or, you know, some sort of way of identifying the ...Brad Crowell  Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday. (Lesley: Yeah.) Yeah, exactly.Lesley Logan  You know how there was like, labeled underwear. Like Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday underwear. Did you not have that? (Brad: No ...) Every girl listener is nodding their head right now and I thought that was so terrible. (Brad: That's hilarious.) Because here's why. I didn't want to wear the Wednesday underwear on Monday just because it's clean. Because if anyone saw my underwear, they'd be like, You're wearing Wednesday's underwear. Ew." You so like, anyways, sides, right? This is a problem I had in my life. But what if you could buy food containers that had like Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday. I'm sure they exists. (Brad: Yeah ... 100%) Not sponsor by the show. Okay. Um, lastly ...Brad Crowell  So that's she also mentioned in this step six prepackaged for easy grab and go, pre making lunches for your kids. So you have to do it in the morning.Lesley Logan  Yeah. And then make breakfast for the full week. And this is like especially like Monday through Friday, you guys, I love overnight oats. So (Brad: Yeah.) easy, so easy to make, you can make a whole week's worth of overnight oats in one setting and I challenge you to make it take longer than seven minutes. I challenge you.Brad Crowell  To do the whole week. Yeah ...Lesley Logan  Because because here's the deal. First of all, here's how it goes. Ready? It's one part oats, one part oat, or almond milk or some milk of choice. So if you do one cup, it's one cup, two cups, two cups, so it's really easy. Then you add in any other flavors or things you want. Probably not that nuts. (Brad: blueberry) I keep the fresh fruits out but dried fruits I'd put in just because they soften up and they flavorize. Is that a word? (Brad: Yeah. We'll take it.) We're just adding words here. To the thing and then I like to add some protein powder to it, some fiber, some flax and chia seeds, because that also makes it nice and filling. Then you put it in your container. So if you know you're gonna have half a cup every day or a cup every day, whatever you need to eat, then you'll go okay, Monday through Friday. That's five, right? So it's it's a big bowl, you need at least seven hours of it to be over it for an overnight oats. So it doesn't actually have to even be like, done the weekend before it can be done the night before. Boom, it's ready. And then you can scoop them out into or New York Times does this they also don't sponsor the show, but they sent me an email every week about overnight oats. And they take mason jars. And they literally make individual overnight oats in mason jars.Brad Crowell  So pull it from the fridge with a spoon. Done. (Lesley: Yes.) Ready to go. That's kinda cool. It's clever.Lesley Logan  Yeah. I'm Lesley Logan.Brad Crowell  And I'm Brad Crowell.Lesley Logan  Thank you so much for joining us today. How are you going to use these tips in your life?

The European Super League has put football in a state of rage. I understand, but I don't think it's helpful. Florentino Perez, Real Madrid President and ESL Mastermind, came out and said all the quiet stuff out loud in a calm and candid manner. If you listen to what he said, you will fully understand the reasons for the creation of this competition. Then you can look for solutions. But don't stay angry. It's futile.

#7: Your baby's feet resting flat on a solid footrest stabilizes their core and helps support a safe swallow. In this episode we're looking at why the footrest is the most important safety feature that most high chairs don't have…and how to DIY a footrest if your baby's feet aren't touching the footrest of your current high chair.

Topic Introduction-Story Doc Smo here. Thanks for joining me today for a lively discussion about children, food, and mealtime. Let's face it, parents with young children are expected to buy a lot of equipment. Here is just a short list: strollers, cribs, pack and plays, stair gates, changing tables, and maybe, just maybe, a high chair? This is just the tip of the iceberg of equipment that is marketed to young families. I've done a previous pedcast about rolling baby walkers in which I came down hard on these devices. I think you can save the $40 you would spend on a walker and instead, put it his or her college fund. But what about high chairs?  You know those sit on the floor, free standing chairs with trays, and straps, and a wide base?  Generally, pediatricians get involved with high chairs for two reasons;  when a toddler or older child falls out of their high chair or when a child has poor food intake because of a feeding problem.  Like the child I saw recently who had such poor caloric intake that he was falling off the growth curve at his 15 month checkup. (a condition that pediatricians call failure to thrive).  Poor oral intake of food is only one cause of failure to thrive but in this child, it was the big one.  When I asked the mother of this child how meals were served in her house, she told me that little Johnny, sat at his little table and chair, separate from the family and ate.  She tried to feed him down there but admitted that he wouldn't sit still for more than a minute or two before he gots up and ran around the house. He also was not interested in eating at mealtime, instead, snacking all day, mostly on crackers and milk. Most of the time, he ate by himself, not with the family and he didn't feed himself anything. I thought everything about his eating indicated trouble so I thought it might be useful to discuss, in today's pedcast entitled "Are High Chairs Needed for Today's Kids",  two questions: are high chairs needed today and are high chairs safe? Stay tuned and find out. Today's pedcast is being sponsored by one of my favorite blogs,  The ChildrensTable.com. There, you will hear a lot about the and savvy and sophisticated feeding of children. The site has been a featured link on my website for years. I love it. If you haven't heard about this wonderful blog, please... take a moment and check it out.  Always worldly, fascinating, well written, and informative. That's thechildrenstable.com. Musical Introduction Reasons to use high chair Let's start this discussion with a list of the reasons you should consider feeding your little ones in a high chair: The Convenience - Having a safe place to feed your older infants, toddlers and young preschoolers is fantastic. Pop them in and mealtime is on. No struggling to keep them still, no trying to hold them down in anyway! Parent Freedom- Having junior safely ensconced in the high chair allows the feeding parent a little freedom to organize, multitask, and serve the food. Supports Younger Feeders- Allows younger eaters to sit up since there is some support from the chair. This is useful for children from about 7months to 9 months of age. Puts Parent and Child Eye to Eye-I think this is a big one. High chair feeding gets a child at the right height to feed and communicate with them. This is very important since we now know that parent's transmit attitudes about food to infants by their body language. Parent and child being face to face allows this communication to happen. And while we are talking about it, having mom or dad eating the same food that baby is consuming also transmits the message that the food is good! Safety-This is one of the most obvious reasons to pull out the high chair-stability and safety, as long as child not left alone and is properly restrained. More on that in a moment. Reduces Chance of Choking-I don't have stats or studies to prove this but my intuition tells me that having a young,

Five years ago Jill Castle and I turned in the manuscript for Fearless Feeding: How to Raise Healthy Eaters from High Chair to High School. It was the first book for both of us and it took about three years from inception to completion. We came together to write Fearless Feeding to provide up-to-date feeding information to parents for kids of all ages. What we didn't expect was how much health professionals would utilize the book. It is used as a textbook in colleges and internships around the country. The Fearless Feeding Philosophy includes the What (nutrition), How (feeding approach) and Why (how development relates to eating) at each stage of development. On today's show, my guest is my writing partner, Jill Castle, childhood nutrition expert and creator of The Nourished Child Blog and Podcast. In addition to Fearless Feeding, she is author of Eat Like a Champion and various e-books including The Smart Mom's Guide to Starting Solids and Try New Food! She is a sought-after childhood nutrition speaker, develops online courses for parents and health professionals, and runs a part-time private practice. Jill and I talk about what's new in feeding since we turned in that manuscript for Fearless Feeding, and I get the chance to pick her brain about feeding older kids.

“Raising healthy kids is one of the hardest jobs of parenthood – from picky eating, childhood obesity, food allergies, sports nutrition, and eating disorders to the endless doubts about what to feed your children.” – Jill Castle   Jill Castle is a registered dietitian and America’s Childhood Nutrition Expert. She is the author of Eat Like a Champion: Performance Nutrition for Your Young Athlete, co-author of Fearless Feeding: How to Raise Healthy Eaters from High Chair to High School, founder of the blog Just the Right Byte, and creator of The Kids Healthy Weight Project, an online nutrition and feeding course for parents. Mealtime is not about what your kids eat; it’s about being together and HOW you feed them—this has an equal, if not stronger effect on overall eating. Dinner together in a positive setting and atmosphere not only helps kids and teens eat healthier, it may curtail negative behaviors like experimenting with drugs and alcohol and other risk-taking behavior.
