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 0:47  Hey, Be It babe. How are you? Okay. Now, now that I've done one, I think I'm gonna be much more organized on this one. That's my win this week. My win is that I'm more organized for my FYF episodes. No, I'm not. I'm just kidding. This means nothing to you if you missed last week's episode. So if you missed last week's episode, go back and listen anytime. The wins are appropriate to listen to whenever you want. And it's really about really reminding us all that we're actually really fucking amazing. We're doing great things. And if we can't do that on Fridays, when can we do it? Right? I mean, ideally, every day, but let's be real, like life is busy. There's a lot going on. It's really easy just to focus on all the ish that's out there in the world. And what I've come to, like, realize and enjoy is like, I can actually go, Okay, if we take what's going on the world out, like, just put it over on just like, over here, I can actually say I'm doing really freaking great. If we bring it back in, then I'm kind of meh. I'm like, in the whelmed state, overwhelmed sometimes by all that I'm feeling, and then, like, underwhelmed a bit about, like, people's reactions and support. And then we have to go back and do the thing, right? We have to go back and do the thing. So anyways, I'm recording this in February for March. My wins are really gonna be fun for you. I think hopefully you'll see, like, oh, wins can happen in all places. And I got wins from you guys that I want to share and I can't wait, but for that, we have to do something that's quite inspiring about what some woman did, a way back when that we all should be thankful for. and know. Okay, so this is from her story. Feminism. I really like this account, by the way, they come up a lot. I have tried to get them on the show, but that is not going to happen, and that's not because they're not cool. They're really cool. So anyways, did you know the woman quoted in every US passport was born enslaved, and most people don't even know her name. Meet Anna Julia Cooper. Anna Julia Cooper was born into slavery in 1858 in North Carolina. Her mother was enslaved. Her father was almost certainly her mother's enslaver, a reality many black women endured under slavery. After emancipation, she earned a scholarship to St Augustine's Normal School. She fought to take classes reserved for men, because she knew education was her way to freedom. In 1882 she wrote A Voice From The South, one of the major works of black feminist thought, arguing that the progress of an entire nation depends on on the uplift of black women. Couldn't agree more. She became one of the first black women in US history to earn a PhD that was in Sorbonne, 1924 she spent her life educating, advocating for black women and children, becoming a teacher, principal and lifelong activist. Her words, the cause of freedom is not the cause of a race or a sect, a party or a class. It is the cause of humankind, the very birthright of humanity. That quote appears in every American passport today, but most Americans have no idea they're reading the words of a formerly enslaved black woman. I'm just gonna read that again. The cause of freedom is not the cause of a race or a sect, a party or a class. It is the cause of humankind, the very birthright of humanity. And I just think that's most beautiful thing. I think we have so much work to do, but I think in learning history and learning what women before us have done is really important, because things can seem really heavy and big right now, and you just got to keep going. I'm sure, I'm sure, I'm sure she had to just get, like, one obstacle after the next, and she just kept going. So that's what we're going to do as we Be It Till We See It. Lesley Logan 4:07  All right, time for some wins of yours. So let me grab these, because you guys are so cool. I asked for these a couple weeks ago. You can send them in to beitpod.com/questions anytime. So the same link works for questions or win. Send it in. I want to share your win. You it will come up when you need to hear it. I promise you, it's kind of like a great mantra or a tarot card. It'll just come up at the right moment you need to hear it. So this one is from @cordeliamadetomove. She wrote, my win, sumptuous, mindful practice on the Reformer this morning after a three week break, forgot some of the order, but could laugh at myself rather than chastise. Also taught my mom too, and found I was so patient. Both the above tells me I need a break mentally, and how good it is for me mentally. Bring on more holidays. Next one is to see Lesley in Bruges. Well, we're gonna see each other in Bruges like in two weeks. I'm so excited. See how the timing of this works. Lesley Logan 4:59  Cordelia, you're amazing, and I appreciate this, because I think we have a lot of people who do Pilates who listen to this, and there's so much judgment of every exercise that doesn't go perfectly. Pilates is not meant to be perfect. It's meant to be a practice. And so I love that you got to a place where you could laugh at yourself. I'm so happy for you. It's so so great. So so great. So thank you, Cordelia, for sending your win in. Lesley Logan 5:17  All right, my win. Are you ready for this? It's gonna shock you. Okay, so my lovely win is I, well, this won't shock you at all, but in my effort to be part of my community in a deeper way, and I also just have something else to do also, I just really, I'm trying not to adopt another dog in this moment, because we're quite busy, and I miss the energy of multiple dogs in this house, but the reality is, it's like it's just not where our life is. If we had them already, we would have them and be dealing with it and enjoying ourselves. But introducing another dog, as you know is it takes time, and so I've been wanting to volunteer for the Nevada, Nevada SPCA for a long time, but you have to go to the volunteer meeting, which only happens once a month, and like, it sometimes it's full and it's on a Friday. And, like, of course, most of the time it was on a Friday that I wasn't in town, versus all the Fridays that I was on town. So it was getting kind of frustrating. But the first Friday I could go to was in January, and so we went to that meeting. That's great. Then I went in person to get my badge and all my stuff, and then we went to the dog walker training, and that is what I can say I've completed. I'm so excited, because what I really want to do is just go walk the dogs, get them out as much as as they can, as much as my time allows. And we're approved to take dogs out on a little foster trip, field trip. Because if you haven't noticed, I'm going to be doing some reels of dogs that are having a hard time getting adopted. I feel like, you know, if I adopt one dog, I get to save one dog. But if I can get, if I can be part of what the Nevada SPCA is doing to get more dogs adopted, then like, my goodness, I feel like that will hopefully scratch the itch of me have another dog, and if there's one I fall in love with, well then that's what's going to happen. But my ultimate goal is like, this is for this year. This is really participate in helping get these dogs a loving home. The Nevada SPCA is really great. They don't take any government funding. So if you want to donate to somebody who's taking care of dogs in a great, amazing way, I really love them, also your local SPCA, go check it out. Go tour the facility. Go see if they need help. The local ones actually need your help more than the big one. So it goes a long way. OPC actually donates to the Nevada SPCA every quarter. So I have some exciting things that I want to do with them this year, just being on time. But I'm just really proud of myself because I wanted to volunteer, and then I wanted to do it in a way that I could participate, in a way that filled my soul, but also help them out. And so I just want to say, That's my win. That's my win this week. It took me about eight months to get it, to get my schedule to do it. But you know what? You just have to keep going. And that's the thing. I think people don't realize, right? With a goal or a thing that they want to do, they get to an obstacle. Like, truly, I saw all the different volunteer meetings. I just couldn't go. And I, instead of going, this is never gonna work out. I should just do something else, or I'll just get more money. Like, No, I'm just gonna keep checking the dates until I can go. And we all want things to happen sooner than than they are happening, but they won't ever happen if you just, if you stop. So that's that's that, right? Lesley Logan 8:09  All right, my loves now for your mantra. What are we drawing up today? Here it is. I trust my instincts completely. I trust my instincts completely. I trust my instincts completely. You're a badass. You're amazing. Thank you so much for listening to our show. Oh my god. You know what I never have done. I haven't done. We'll have to do a formal thing on this. We are celebrating. We are the last time I checked, we were in the top 1% of all podcasts. That's because of you. Thanks so much. Couldn't do that without you. Literally every download, every download helps, every review helps, every time you share with a friend helps. So please keep doing it, because it allows, as the show gets bigger, it's gonna allow us to get bigger guests. Like, I've had some great recommendations for guests from you guys. I love them. Hate to say it. We have to be like in a top point five. So get your friends to listen to the pod so we can get those amazing guests on and until next time, Be It Till You See It. Lesley Logan 8:59  That's all I got for this episode of the Be It Till You See It Podcast.

I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started. Lesley Logan 0:56  Welcome back to the Be It Till You See It interview recap where my co-host in life, well, not. Clare Solly 1:02  I totally could be. Lesley Logan 1:05  Well, you are my slingshot friend. So my my co-host and my part time co-host in life, Clare Solly and I are going to dig into the vital convo I have with Rachel Varga in our last episode. If you haven't yet listened to that one. You have no idea the number of tools you I have to listen to it twice. I'm definitely already re-listening to it because I took one of her ideas from this episode. I have been doing it every day ever since. I'm like, okay, I'm ready to add in a new one from that. So I definitely think it's one you'll go back to. Clare Solly 1:36  Yeah. I took notes, copious notes. Lesley Logan 1:38  I was like, okay, thank God, because Brad would love this. But like, the like I said last week, the timing of you being here so you could be my co-host on this episode, way more fun, way more fun, because you and I have shared so just when you're here, you're like, oh, did you know if you spray this, like antibacterial stuff on your armpits, and then you're deodorant, it lasts longer. And I was like, life has changed. I don't even know how to start that process, but I'm going to. Lesley Logan 2:00  Anyways, we are gonna jump right into things. Today is March 12th, 2026, it's Girl Scouts Day, everyone. Clare Solly 2:07  I love Girl Scout cookie. Lesley Logan 2:09  I told Clare. I was like, do you know it's Girl Scouts Day? She's like, are you serious? I'm like, yeah, it is. So steal your resolve. Dieters, beware. This is obviously like, pre you know, body neutrality. There are Girl Scouts everywhere, and they're all trying to sell you kryptonite, aka their most delicious cookies, whether your favorite flavor is minty Thin Mints or googie, gooey, gooey, Gooey Tagalongs.Clare Solly 2:31  Those are my two favorites, both the googie and the Gooey Tagalongs.Lesley Logan 2:35  I love a Thin Mint. If I could have gluten and dairy, I would be all over these Girl Scouts of America. I'm just saying in the year of our Lord.Clare Solly 2:43  They do make a gluten free cookie, but it's not. Lesley Logan 2:45  Well on the year of our Lord 2026 I think you could find a way to make a gluten free cookie in Vegas, there's a brewery who does Girl Scout Cookies with beers. And they like do a whole thing. It's like, I don't know, Google it Vegas. I don't know where it's at, because I can't drink beer or have these cookies, but I do know that I sent all the men in my life to do it, and they had the best time. They're so good. They deserve a holiday, and they have one of sorts get ready to celebrate this March 12, because it's National Girl Scout day, part of Girl Scout week. National Girl Scout Day commemorates the anniversary of the first girl scout meeting. In 1912, Juliette “Daisy” Gordon Low organized the meeting. That's a that's a name that's a definitely sign of the times. Gordon Low organized the meeting in Savannah, Georgia, and Girl Scouts have only grown from there. So grab a cookie or 12 and get ready to celebrate. Honestly, buy them even if you can't eat them and give them to people.Clare Solly 3:32  You can, yeah, you can actually donate them to soldiers and and folks like on their website too. Yeah, it's easy. And actually you can just donate money to help Girl Scout troops.Lesley Logan 3:41  Because that would allow Girl Scout troops, of all areas, to be able to join in and do what they want to do.Clare Solly 3:46  When I was a daisy through a senior Girl Scout, it really changed out my life. So I'm a Girl Scout supporter.Lesley Logan 3:52  I love that. I, you know, Girl Scouts weren't a thing for me. Because I think I don't know. I might I think, because my I was already over scheduled as a child. Clare Solly 4:00  So many sports. Lesley Logan 4:01  I have sports, dance, sewing classes, but, and I was in like, a church version of the whole thing, which still had patches. And you know what? I'm just gonna say, I missed out. I missed out. I think that's why I probably don't have as many girlfriends. Clare Solly 4:12  We could be a we could be adult Girl Scouts. Lesley Logan 4:14  Is there a way to do that? Anyways, I want patches. Do you remember? Okay, hold on side note. Do you remember Troop Beverly Hills? Clare Solly 4:20  I love Troop Beverly Hills. Such a good movie. Lesley Logan 4:23  The best movie, like, the opposite of, like, oh my god, her outfits. Beverly Hills, what a thrill. Beverly. And they do, and like, I love how they made up their own patches. Like, I just like, that was a, that's a be it till you see it movie. I mean, yes, that's your like, no one's crying for the rich girls. But also, like, I liked what they did. They got outside, they tried to do things, and I hope it ages well, sorry if it doesn't, okay. So real quick I leave next week for Poland, so if there is space is not too late, xxll.co/poland it's me and Karen Frischmann and all the Controlology stuff and some really epic workshops. And even if you're not Polish, you can come because Karen and I will speak in English, and it'll be translated to Polish, and so you have double the time to write your notes, and then we'll be in Bruges. And I thought we're in Brussels. So this is why Brad travels with me, because I've been telling everyone to be in Brussels and we are going to be in Bruges. So.Clare Solly 5:13  It's good to have, everyone needs a Brad.Lesley Logan 5:15  Everyone needs a Brad. And when I told my psychiatrist, the reason I didn't think I had ADHD is because I was an Aquarius. This is a this is evidence.Clare Solly 5:24  I love this for you, though. Lesley Logan 5:25  I know xxll.co/brussels to get your tickets to Bruges. It's still in Belgium, so I didn't fuck it up that much and and so it's gonna be a really fun time. That's Karen Frischmann and myself and Ignacio and Els of Pilatal. And it's just gonna be a wonderful time with some friends who love to teach alongside each other, and you're gonna want to come because the spots are almost sold out. And then after Brad and I finally get to France, that's the goal. It's been a set time with the second honeymoon. We'll be in London, and they'll probably be the last time in London for a couple of years. So, xxll.co/pot. Actually can see all the POT's from Balanced Body on that schedule. The only one I'm excited to teach at right now that I can share is London, so you want to come. My first workshop is sold out, but the second one has a couple spots left, and that's on a Sunday, so why not? And then when I come home, we'll be doing spring training. That is a virtual week long event where, no matter your Pilates level, we are going to help you understand the foundations to getting Pilates deeper in your body. It's at opc.me/events. Okay, Clare's taken over the the questions, and so it's like, what is Clare gonna ask me?Clare Solly 6:27  They're always kind of fun and kind of scary. So today, you're gonna get a multiple choice. Are you ready for that? Lesley Logan 6:32  I'm ready. Clare Solly 6:33  Would you rather be able to teleport so you can go anywhere at any time in an instant? Would you rather have six more hours in the day, and it won't feel like your day's any longer. It's just like you'll have six more hours to get all the stuff done, and everybody else will be on 24 or would you rather have, like, an on call body technician to like massages, do your hair, do your makeup, you know, anything you want that like, is self-care, body stretch you out, anything. What of those three would you rather have?Lesley Logan 7:01  Well, instant, my first gut before I heard the second two would have, I would hit the buzzer, but like, teleport, because that's like the problem. I want to just teleport. I hate the time, like, in between things. But when you got me to the third one, it was the on, like the body technician, like I do. I am jealous that, like, these amazing, famous people have, like, someone who, like, does their hair, does their nails, like, I have to do my makeup, and I hate the lighting in my bathroom where my makeup is I realized I could just switch bathrooms, but, like, no, the annex is the bathroom, so I but I just want someone to do that for me, because I look so good when someone else does it. Like Cynthia Rivo, her team is amazing, right? Like, obviously she has good, like aesthetic and like, lens and style, but like, that's what happens when you have an on call team. So I think I have to do number three.Clare Solly 7:47  Yeah, yeah, that's a good one. I don't know which. Lesley Logan 7:49  Also, if I could be doing, like, if someone's doing my hair, I could be actually getting other things done. So I think I would like solidly fix number 3.Clare Solly 7:56  We know how you like to multitask on this pod. Lesley Logan 7:59  What would you choose? What would you choose? Clare Solly 8:01  I even though I think I would like the on body technician, I think I would take teleport. Because if I could save the time in traveling, I think I would just like, I mean, I like, you can kind of hear it like I've been traveling for two weeks. So I'm like, travel makes me if I don't hydrate enough, I, you know, don't do so well. So I think I would take teleport. What do you think Brad would do? Lesley Logan 8:21  Brad? Brad would teleport in a second? Clare Solly 8:23  Would he? Lesley Logan 8:23  Yeah, in a second. Clare Solly 8:24  Okay. Well, we'll have to see. Maybe he can put it in the show notes and confirm that for everybody listening. Lesley Logan 8:28  Yeah, put it in the show notes, go read the show notes to see if I got it right. We'll put it in there. If you don't know how to find the show notes, I can't help you know what device you're on. But like usually, if you go to the episode, then you can click, there's a link for the show notes. Or if you go to our website, you actually can see every single podcast has a blog and a transcription. So if you want to read what we're saying, because I talk too fast.Clare Solly 8:47  And then you can binge everything too, all the podcasts you missed. Lesley Logan 8:50  Everything is there, still there you know. So however, you like it. Okay. Clare Solly 8:53  Should we talk about Rachel Varga now?Lesley Logan 8:55  Before we do that, you need to also send your questions in, because Clare can't be here every week to be the question asker, so go to beitpod.com/questions you can also send your wins in. I share those on Fridays.Clare Solly 9:07  Oh, fantastic. I love this. I love it. You can also text them right, to 1-310-905-5534.Lesley Logan 9:15  Yeah. Someday I'll remember that number, and then I'll become like, who should we call on emergency? And I'll be like, that's the one I know.Clare Solly 9:22  Why? Is it your own voice?Lesley Logan 9:27  You know what, here's the thing, I'm gonna die when I actually put that number down for Brad, and they're like, I got your customer service team is like, look, I'm calling your customer service. You can call mine.Clare Solly 9:38  Okay, now let's talk about Rachel Varga. Rachel Varga is a double board certified aesthetic nurse specialist who has been practicing since 2011, created skin care products and hosts The School of Radiance Podcast. As a traditionally trained esthetic nurse, she's performed thousands of rejuvenation procedures on patients, including peels, lasers, injectables and assisting with surgery. After years in traditional medical aesthetics, she incorporated biohacking longevity practices and home care routines that make a significant long-term difference. Then you can see it in Lesley already, and it's been short term. Her overall mission is to help people both look and feel their best.Lesley Logan 10:19  Oh my gosh. Okay, so here's the deal. She's been on this podcast for a second time. Probably have to have her back, because there's like, so many tools in my mind, too, but I really was like, peppering her with, like, do I need to, like, derma plane? Do I need to do this kind of thing, like, anything? I was like, What about the Gua Sha? Should I do this X, Y and Z? So I'm going to tell you right now. We can't get into all the things, because she said it best, and she's the expert. Clare Solly 10:40  Yeah, just listen to the podcast and take notes. Lesley Logan 10:42  But I will say, so what I love that she said is, like, self-care, particularly your morning and evening rituals, are an act of self-love. And if you don't know what self-love is, go listen my self-love series, it came out in February. But like, I think that that is a lot of people are like, trying to find the new the right mascara or right foundation color, but truly, like when I got rid of my fake lashes, and I was like a mole rat with, like, no lashes, like alopecia on my eyes. No offense to people with alopecia, but like, it was like, a shocking difference from having zero. And the girl was helping. I said, you have to teach me to do my makeup, because I've had fake lashes for five years, so I've just never done it, and she said, look the best makeup doesn't work on bad skin, so your best thing you could be doing for looking beautiful is to have a really good skincare routine. Now, luckily, I did do that, because I'm a Californian afraid of wrinkles, all that stuff, but like, so I was like, Okay, so I'm halfway there. And so I couldn't agree with her more about like your evening and night routines are part of the of the self-love that you can give yourself, and also, like she gave you in that episode, so many ways of doing things for free or for low cost money. And then she stressed the importance of of engaging the parasympathetic nervous system so your body's rest and regenerate mode. Ladies, like, if you are not sleeping, you're not digesting. If you're not digesting, you're not absorbing stuff. You're getting high cortisol. That is not fun in the perimenopause. So it's not fun. Clare Solly 12:09  Start those practices now.Lesley Logan 12:10  So I you should. And if you're already in it, and you're like us, like if you owe it to yourself to try out something, one thing at a time, trying to do all the things at a time to really help you intentionally drop into your parasympathetic of the nervous system.Clare Solly 12:22  Well, and to piggyback on that, like, do one thing at a time, even though you're like, I mean, I took notes and not like, and I know you did too. And like, all the things, try one thing at a time and give it like, a week or two to see if it's actually working for you. Because if you do five things at once, I mean, yes, we want you to, like, give yourself all the self-care you can. Lesley Logan 12:39  You won't know what's working. Clare Solly 12:40  You don't know what's working.Lesley Logan 12:41  And then you can't drop it off. And then you're gonna freak out like, oh my god, I can't take this on the plane. I can't do this. So I was on a podcast with Jessica Valant, her her podcast, and she was asking about, like, when I travel, how I take care of myself. And I'm like, because when I'm at home, I'm so good about knowing all the different things that work for me. I know what I can do when I travel and what I can't get away with. I'm not experimenting on a trip, you know, so but you have to do one thing at a time. And she said, the more relaxed you are in the parasympathetic state, the more beautiful you are going to be perceived as. And that is so true. I don't ever see someone walking around stressed out, going, look how pretty she is. You're kind of like, oh my god, that woman scares the hell out of me. Like, but we like, see these people who look so calm and confident. It's like, oh, because they're parasympathetic nervous system, it's like, totally taking, like, getting it what it needs. Clare Solly 13:27  Well, and two of the easiest way to help. It's the Wonder Woman pose that, like, was big a couple years ago. You know, the little the little girl next to the bull, put your arms on your and your shoulders back and down, and like, already, like, if you're watching on YouTube, you can see, like Lesley and I just became 10 times more beautiful. Lesley Logan 13:42  Yeah, adjusted ourselves in our chairs. You totally do. Clare Solly 13:45  It posture does so much for you and like and it does actually do something to your heart and makes you, like, radiate, and opens up your chest and your body, and then humming. Like, honestly, if you're nervous about anything, it will also help you regulate. This is I'm a trained singer, so like that. And Brad can probably like recount this too, but just humming to yourself, even if it's quietly, even in the car, if you're traveling to something that you're nervous about, just hum.Lesley Logan 14:09  Also just inhale for five counts and exhale for five counts. So the perfect breath is between 10 and 11 seconds long. And if you just go inhale and count and exhale and count, you can, I can feel myself even just talking about it, like, drop in. There's also a way that you can breathe. You do two inhales, one exhale, yeah, and that's an instant reset as well. Clare Solly 14:30  Yeah, all the breath work, all the breath work. Lesley Logan 14:33  I know. So I mean, like, you might even have tools that you used to do, and we haven't brought them up, and you haven't done them in a while. And I would just say it's worth it to do because, like, like, my, my Sephora girl said, I can teach you all the makeup tips in the world. But if you are tired and stressed out, and your skin is not, you know, shining and glowy like it, it won't be as wonderful. And we're talking about beauty like, beauty is skin deep. I think it's really, truly, like how you take care of of the skin that you're in, then whatever you apply to that is gonna be better. Doesn't have any makeup. It could actually just be, maybe don't wear any makeup. But like, just taking care of yourself is gonna be a really nice, wonderful thing.Clare Solly 15:11  And also just like, again, gut check when you're like, when something feels like it's too much for you, or, like, too long of I mean, take care of yourself in any way you can. But if it's too long of a commitment or too difficult for you to resource the things, like, don't like, it's not, it's not going to help you.Lesley Logan 15:26  No and real quick, I'll just say one of the things that I have been doing from this talk, because everyone talks about Epsom salt baths, and like, because, like, you know, I'm perimenopausal and like, inflammation, all these things and like, my joints were bothering me, and everyone's like, Epsom salt bath. Are you kidding me? My bath is set up as a cold plunge. I can't have a cold plunge Epsom salt bath. So I was just like, and I'm not a bath person. Like, the cold plunge is easy, because I can drop in, I wake right up, right? But like, a bath, it's kind of like that, like you just said, it takes more time than I want to give it. And so, like, the like, it just doesn't feel like doable, right? Who's going to take a five minute hot bath? First of all, it takes 15 minutes to load the tub up, right? And I'm in Vegas, and they check our water. So at any rate, she said, you don't even need to do an Epson salt bath. She said, get some oil, avocado, or, like, I think human sesame, but, like, single source oil, put it on your body in the shower. So I get a hot shower on me. I put the oil on, and then I just take a bag of Epsom salt bath. I put my wet hand in it. It's covered in Epsom salt, and I just scrub. And she was very clear on the episode. We're not. Clare Solly 16:26  I was gonna ask you about that. So as you said you were doing it. Lesley Logan 16:28  I do it. I don't do it every single night, just because it is a drier climate here, but I do it like at least every other night. But if I'm having, if I had a more stressful day, I'll just do it anyways, even if I did the night before. So arms, legs, and I, first of all, I don't even need to put lotion on afterwards. Your skin is so soft. It's like, we went to the Korean spa and, like, they took off the skin so so soft. And I sleep like a baby. You get all the benefits of the Epsom salt bath without having to take the bath. And then it all just washes down the drain. So real quick, we have a bag of Epsom salt on subscription. So it comes, it's a wonderfully sourced Epsom salt, and then we took those, like, restaurant like, like, mustard squeeze bottle, and we just poured a bunch of oil in it. It's in the shower, and it's just, like, easy, easy. And you walk out so clean, and I have a bath to clean afterwards.Clare Solly 17:15  And what I really loved was her skeptical on a lot of these, like, I loved that you were, like, asking about all these tools. And she was like, well, and she, like, she had opinions on all of them. You like, you could hear it. But she was also like, yeah. And I, like, I loved that she, like, gave you different things to do, like, you asked her about face yoga, and should you do it? And she was like, No, do the lymph node things. And like, automatically I was starting to do that. And like, and, you know, press things. And it felt so much better. Like, and I like that she also, like, gave you things like, you know, was the was the lady who did the thing on the one side of her face, like, didn't actually work. She's like, well, it could be that because, because she sleeps on that side, and because she, like, she dries and gets sun on that side, things you don't think about. Lesley Logan 17:57  I know she's like, she had a healthy skepticism that made me go, oh, okay, she's like, I'm watching it, and I know that there's like, fake stuff out there. But also, like, I don't know, like, my girlfriend does this, like, brushing to her face, and it her face looks so good so, you know, like, but it's that lymphatic drainage stuff, I don't know, like, so. Clare Solly 18:16  Oh and lymphatic drainage is something like, I'm convinced that's actually why I have this little bit of a head cold right now because I had like, a massage with, like, massive lymphatic (inaudible).Lesley Logan 18:23  If Rachel is listening to this, she's gonna send us a link of, like, what you should be doing. Clare Solly 18:26  Oh, please, please Rachel, please send it. Please, please, like I would listen to you and like I'm following you and I'm doing all the things. But I loved that, like that just working out, like things that you do and adding to your normal routine. I think you mentioned, like, can I do the massage while I'm putting on my facial lotion? And she was like, yes, absolutely.Lesley Logan 18:45  Is that great? Because you're already doing it. You're already doing your skincare. And you can, just like, make sure your hands are nice and moisturized, and you can do the things. I'm like, if you're watching this, I'm like, doing the things. And, like, it really does make a massive difference.Clare Solly 18:57  Yeah, it does. It does well and make sure your hands are clean and moisturized, not and just like, you've had French fries and you're like, oh, there's some (inaudible).Lesley Logan 19:05  Like, let's not, let's not make it, let's not it's like they no good deed goes unpunished. Like, don't fuck up. We don't, like, clean your hands. I think people need to wash their hands more. But anyways, I couldn't agree more. And I just thought, like, I just keep going back to, like, self-care is, like, such a self act of love. And like, I mean, we always think, oh, I should go get a facial. Oh, I should go get a massage. And think you could be doing like, little massages to yourself. Clare Solly 19:28  Yeah, yeah. I mean, again, not after French fries, but like at the stoplight, while you're driving in your car. You could do something like quick, like knuckle Gua Sha on yourself, press those lymph nodes in your in your clavicle, and release things. Lesley Logan 19:39  Oh, yeah. I love this one girl online, she like, shows you, like, okay, clear your things. And I'm like, whenever I see her, I'm like, let's just clear them. Like, what are we doing here? And I feel like mine are so tight, no wonder, like, my eyes are always so puffy.Clare Solly 19:48  Oh yeah, yeah. So so many good tips that she had. And I love that you were like, I felt like you were asking the hard questions. And then one thing that I'm fascinated with is the energy in your fingertips. Like, I want to read more about that. I'm like, my fingers are magic. Lesley Logan 20:03  I know the visualization of me is like, oh, does that mean like, I have, like, little like, I want that. What a super power. Like, then you can just, like, someone who annoys you just walk by and, like, shock them. Clare Solly 20:22  So good, so good. Lesley Logan 20:23  Yeah. But, you know, I really so one of the things, like, she's so educated, and obviously the way you can do Botox and things like that, like, she's not any anti any of that stuff, but I really appreciate her honesty. Like, you could also try these things first, if you're, like, not interested in the injectables and but then also, don't just go buy anything that says it's, like, better than Botox. Like, yeah, you know, it's just, I just appreciate like, she's like, you can spend good money in good places, and you could waste it, or you could use your own hands. Clare Solly 20:48  Yeah, well, and, like, I mean, you and I talked about Gua Sha, I think, like, a year ago, and you were like, you have to do this. And I started doing it, and I was good for like, two months, and then I'm like, oh, and I travel, and I forget to take my Gua Sha or, Oh, I'm, you know, you know, off doing whatever and forget to Gua Sha, but my fingers are always attached, and I can't use that as an excuse. Lesley Logan 21:08  I agree, and like, I still like my Gua Sha, but also, it's not always where I am, you know, like it's or it's I found, like I almost want a Gua Sha in the shower, because I'm in the shower already, you know, like I'm already there, but then, like, I have dropped a Gua Sha, don't do that. Then it cracks, and you don't want to scratch your face, so, like, it's so I kind of like that, if I forgot my Gua Sha, if I can't travel with it, if I'm asleep, I could still do it, you know, like, because I think a lot of us look for an excuse of why we can't do something. You have, you know, you have your hands. If you have hands, and if you don't have hands, then teach someone to Gua Sha you.Clare Solly 21:43  Oh, and you said the thing, sorry, I'm circling back to the thing that you said about the like the cold well, she said something about the cold plunge, like you should rinse off at the end of you can stand it. And I am a person that likes the water so hot that it burns my skin when I'm in the shower. Lesley Logan 21:55  I agree with you, because I think that's effective. Clare Solly 21:57  I love a hot, hot shower. I love a hot shower. And I know she was saying she, you know, prefers a shower in the morning. I'm a night person because I like to, like, calm down and cool down and, like, it makes me sleep better. But here's a tip for somebody like me that is, like, afraid of the cold water. I turned down my hot just a little bit so I have, like, room temperature water, and I'll do that for a couple of showers, and then slowly, like, turn down the heat a little bit more, a little bit more. Lesley Logan 22:22  Yeah, I so there's a lot of studies on, like, women's temperature for cold plunge. And so I, you know, like, our cold plunge is set 50. I mean, like, I'm sure men will say that Brad should have it colder, like, he doesn't like cold, like, it's not good for his constitution. So 50, 50, is fucking cold. I'll just say that. And I we use it in the morning as a such a great way to, like, wake up. Like it is, like, better than coffee, like it's you do. You can, like, be hung over and get in that fucking thing, and you are not hung over anymore. You're like, okay, it's not going over my head, it's not going my face, but, like, I get up to my neck and shoulders. I do it for a few minutes. It's enough. I like the routine of it. I like the way I'm starting the day. Like, hello. Like, let's go. But we used to do cold showers. And I will just say, those suck. Those are so miserable. But obviously, like, not everyone can have a cold plunge. So I think that you have to figure out what works for you. And I will say, like, the act of doing something that's uncomfortable does allow me to be in more discomfort on most days, not on my worst days, but like on my best days. Discomfort happens things. And I because, like, kind of trained my mind, like I can handle this only a few minutes, like, not a big deal. It does translate. So I think even if you're not doing it for like, the aesthetics of it or the biohacking of it, like, there's reasons to do it. But I also, like to me, the shower needs to burn my skin. I want to be a red I want to be a lobster. I tell Brad, I'm like, it's killing the germs. He's like, That's not it. I'm like, it's gotta be doing something there's never too hot of a hot shower for me. I am, like, just so.Clare Solly 23:52  I'm a lizard. I just want the hot. Lesley Logan 23:54  Yeah, what he used to do is, like, get in the shower at like, the middle, and then, you know, get himself wet at that, like, more like, room temperature water, and then, like, dip it down to a cold that he could tolerate, and then he would do it. That is too long of a commitment, but, hey, you know, but that that's how we're different. Clare Solly 24:13  That's how we're different, yeah, and it's good to talk about these things and things that, like, work for you and don't work for you, and try things.Lesley Logan 24:18  I think it's so funny because the internet's like, you must do this. It's the best thing for, like, the belly fat or the cortisol or the menopause or whatever. If you don't like it, don't do it. Like, oh my god, you know, like, there's so many tools out there, and they might have worked for someone. They don't have to work for you. And then also, like, Whatever happened to like, if it doesn't work for you, it's okay for it to work for someone else. Don't you? I just feel like, you know, we don't have to be the same.Clare Solly 24:43  Yeah, well, and your body changes too. Like Rachel was saying, like, some of the things that you'll do, and that she suggests, your body will actually change while you're doing it. And so maybe the thing that you're you start doing today isn't going to work for you in a year. And so, you know, just, you know. Find a new thing. Lesley Logan 25:00  I know I had to change my skincare line after 40 I found a really great one that I love, but, like, the stuff I was doing before, just like, stopped being great. That's okay. It's not there's nothing wrong with the line. It just wasn't right for me. And like, oh my god, you know. So if you love your Gua Sha, keep doing it. But if you if you hate your cold plunge, don't. Find something else that like challenges your body a different way? Clare Solly 25:22  Yeah, absolutely. Let's talk about the Be It Action Items. What bold, executable, intrinsic or targeted action items can we take away from your convo? I know I took away two crucial foundational elements for overall health and skin, drink 1.2 to 2.5 liters of water daily. One of my hacks for this, I actually, when I'm setting up my coffee at night, I put a cup of water by the coffee machine so I don't even have to fill it up. It's ready when I wake up, and I like, I'm just like, I dummy proof it like I drink my cup of water while I'm waiting for the coffee to brew. And then I'm gonna start doing this. I'm gonna put a pinch of salt in it. I actually put magnesium drops in mine, because I drink them all day long, because, like, your bottled waters, like Perrier and those mineral waters that are European have magnesium in them. So I get my magnesium that way too, although they say magnesium is best absorbed through the skin. So I could just be doing it for fun. Lesley Logan 26:19  That's why the Epsom salt thing is so good. Clare Solly 26:21  Yeah, I'm gonna try that. Lesley Logan 26:22  I'm telling you tonight, since you have one more night here, yes, put it in your bathroom. You're doing it. We're gonna do all the magnesium, and then make sure that water is filtered, whether you're putting it on your body or in your body.Lesley Logan 26:33  Yeah, guys, find a shower filter. Oh, my god. Like, even if you're renting, like, you gotta do it, yeah? Because, like, there's so much crap in that water, or they've taken everything out of it, so there's nothing good in it, like you got, if you can't change the filtered water in your house, we could, but because we, but, like, that's, it's an investment we're not making right now. So we have a shower head filter, and we've had it for a year. Whole my hair is different, my skin is different, everything's different. Clare Solly 26:59  Yeah, I just got one. I rent my apartment, and I just bought one. Pro tip, though, make sure you can actually find filters for your shower head and for if you I have one on my sink, too, make sure you find filters that like they're out there and they're not hard to find, and they're not expensive, or the way you can afford them.Lesley Logan 27:14  Ours is like, ours was a gift because we asked for it at Christmas, and I actually do wonder if, like it even as a filtered change, or if we just buy it a whole new thing, if we can find a filter for it, I'm gonna move it to the guest bathroom, because, yeah, I got you guys to listen to the HigherDOSE. I was like, oh, we're due for a new filter. And then HigherDOSE is like, hey, we have a red light filtered water head.Clare Solly 27:35  Ooh, okay, maybe I need to try that one while I'm here too. Lesley Logan 27:39  Okay, I'm we're recording it, and it's supposed to ship tomorrow. So I don't have it, I can tell you right now, like, the number of red lights that I live under. Like, I can't even wait to shower, light off. Red in the bathroom, red light on.Clare Solly 27:51  Amazing, amazing, amazing.Lesley Logan 27:55  Rachel's probably like, girl, I don't know. I fell for all of it. I'm in.Clare Solly 28:00  You know what? Sometimes, sometimes things that we think make us beautiful actually do make us beautiful because we like them. Lesley Logan 28:06  Yeah, beitpod.com/higherdose okay, use that link. It's our affiliate, so that helps you support this podcast. And then Balanced Dose, Balanced with so, like, like, two Ds in the middle, we'll get you 20% on anything you want there. But I'm, like, big on the show. I'm so excited about it.Clare Solly 28:22  Amazing. So Lesley, what were your biggest takeaways?Lesley Logan 28:25  Okay, so she said, we just have to, like, hear this, look at your beautification routine as self-love, because you're worth it. You are worth it, right? And so we've said it already, but I think, I think some of the best, Be It Action Items are the ones we repeat. Because, like, I just think so many people see it as, like, something they have to buy into. And it's like, it is part of it. We did this with the fascia blaster lady. She's like, massaging your body is like time spent with your body. It's an act of self-love and like, so that you guys, we don't realize when things change in our body, because we're just so used to kind of like living with it. We're kind of like a frog like, although I have heard that the frog in boiling water is, is a myth but everyone says it, so it makes sense, so we'll use it, but it is a totally, apparently, a myth. So we don't realize, like, that ache we had yesterday, and we're like, oh, it's still there. And then we kind of, like, we kind of start to live with it. So I just really believe, the more time you spend with yourself, like you will recognize when things are changing and some of those things are changing, or your moles, like, I have pre skin cancer, and I didn't know you could be I thought we were all pre, weren't you? Apparently there's another level. It's an in between. But it's because I was like, hey, this mole is acting differently. Can you check it out? You know? And so, like, if you're not spending time with yourself and your body, you don't notice these changes that are happening, so. Clare Solly 29:38  Yeah, and it's really worth it. I mean, you taught me years ago to put on my calendar the things that were worth it for me to do for myself. So like, even if you have to block off your like, mentally block off your calendar for 15 more minutes to, like, go take that extra time in the shower, to do your Gua Sha, to do your Epsom salt. Like, do it like, you are worth the extra five minutes, 15 minutes out. You're worth it.Lesley Logan 30:00  You really are. I mean, I think, I think a lot of us are spending way too much time on things that actually don't care for us, make us feel good. And so I just think that, like, notice if you actually made the time for your skincare, notice what you don't have time for. And I promise you, you're letting go of the things you didn't need to be doing. Clare Solly 30:16  I'm sure we could all stop scrolling for 15 minutes. Lesley Logan 30:18  Well, here's the thing. Like, if I was to say, hey, you know, like, Clare, you're like, Oh, I'm flying down. Oh, you're flying tomorrow, right? Yeah. Oh, my God, Clare, I just want a shopping spree. You know, at our favorite store that you're, you know, it's at two o'clock, you move your fucking flight. I would move it. You would move it. You would just do that. Like, so we make time for things we want to do. And if you say you really want to take care of yourself, you will make time for it. If you just so she also reminded us, we have one body, so we have to care for it. We have to make good decisions for it.

I want them to teach me on the pod like that is, oh yeah, like, that's why i It's the year of learning how to deal with my hair so.Clare Solly 31:42  Because you tried them, then I could come try your red lights. Lesley Logan 31:45  I'm at the point where I would chop it off, but it does look beautiful when it's done.

In this recap episode, guest co-host Clare Solly joins Lesley Logan to unpack one of the most uncomfortable topics for women: money. They revisit Tess Waresmith's powerful reminder that money is just a tool, and good people should not be afraid to build wealth if they want to create real impact.

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 0:43  All right. Welcome back to the Be It Till You See It interview recap where my co-host, Clare Solly, is joining us today to dig into the money-savvy convo I have with Tess Waresmith in our last episode. If you haven't yet listened to that one, you missed out. You missed the fuck out. I'm just gonna say it right now. She's amazing. We had her back. We're having Clare back. Clare, just in case people don't remember you being part of the recaps, like, a year and a half ago, and from your amazing episode. Who are you? What do you rock at?Clare Solly 1:10  I am Clare Solly, I feel like I rock at being me right now.Lesley Logan 1:14  That's the best answer no one ever gives that.Clare Solly 1:16  You know, I feel it's funny. I feel like I'm like, I have nothing super exciting, like, like, publicly going on, but I've got a lot of, like, internal stuff happening. I rock, just being a general cheerleader for anybody I come across and feeling free to talk about money widely. So I'm actually, like, this podcast, or this, this episode really got me excited. So I'm excited to be here and talk about it. And I'm, bonus, I'm here in Vegas with you recording in like, I'm across the desk from you.Lesley Logan 1:43  I know it's really fun. That's why she's got Brad's lovely, masculine background. That's true. So, you guys, Clare is here, you're visiting, and we have these recaps to do, because I was in Sacramento on Tuesday, and I was like, hey, I have to do a little bit of work. Do you want to work with me? And that is the, like, just the testament to her, and also, like, my amazing skills, (inaudible) to work alongside me, but.Clare Solly 2:07  It was a total arm twist. I'm like, not gonna lie. I was like, walking in through the door. Like, can I see the studio? Lesley Logan 2:13  Well, but also, like, but the divine timing of these two episodes that we're recording together, this one and next week. Because, like, there are topics I think that you'd actually really be interested in, not that Brad wouldn't be interested in the money one, he absolutely wants, he loves Tess, but also the skincare one. Clare Solly 2:27  I mean, two more perfect episodes for me. There were not so. Lesley Logan 2:31  Yeah, I agree. Well, today, you guys, is March 5th, 2026, and it's Name Tag Day. So on the first Thursday in March, which is on March 5th this year, duh. You guessed it, wearing name tags. On this day people become more human and pay more attention to the people who pass by them or who they pass by every day, with over 7 billion people in the world, it can be easy to feel alone and small. Name Tag Day allows everyone to be in the spotlight a little. On Name Tag Day, you're not a nameless Joe passing by in the neighborhood. Instead, when you pass by, everyone knows your name and connects with you, which is the whole aim of Name Tag Day. So Clare, are you gonna wear a name tag today? Clare Solly 3:07  I love this. I actually, absolutely will. I feel like I'm horrible at names. I feel like that's my like, negative superpower. I try really hard to remember people's names. And I mean, in our society, you like, tell people your name once when you introduce yourself to them, and then you don't know it again. I've called people by the wrong name so many times. But the tricky thing is, like, where do you wear your name tag? Lesley Logan 3:27  Oh, I love where do you wear it? Clare Solly 3:29  I like to wear mine, like, down on my hip. I mean, I'm like, a giant so my hip is, like, everyone's eyeline, but I feel like it messes up, like, unless you have, like, a really cute one, like the Hello, my name is, sticker, like, messes up. Like, your your top hat, it gets in your hair.Lesley Logan 3:43  So many top, oh, my hair is all over. It just peels it right off. And then also, like, depending on the material of your top, ladies, I mean, so I kind of wish that like this, maybe I should have a name tag that's magnet, and I can just put it any like, you know what I mean, so it's one I can use every year. But I am someone who is like, oh, I'm gonna put it down my hip. But then when you, if you're sitting for the meeting, you know, like that's a problem. So I ended up putting it on my bag as if that's helpful. And it's not because it's now that I think about it. So I probably am the reason why this name tag digs is because I'm really good at remembering faces of people. I can remember like when we worked together on retail. I can remember what people bought, I can remember when we saw them last. I remember who they bought the gift for, and I cannot remember their name, like, it takes a few times. And so I I'm very aware of this. And people like, it's a choice. And I'm like, I don't think you understand that like, the fact that I can remember everything you said to me, like, I'll say people, I'm like, oh, I remember you, but I don't remember your name. And they're like, oh, it's this one. Like, we met two years ago at this thing. I'm like, oh, that's right, it was in DC, you had so and so with you, and they look at me like I'm a crazy person, because I can remember the details of the event, but not your name. So maybe this is my day. Clare Solly 4:47  Maybe it's your day. Lesley Logan 4:48  Yeah, so it's not too late, if you're listening to this in the evening, go put your name tag on before you go to the bar. Why not, you know? Clare Solly 4:52  Why not. Lesley Logan 4:53  All right, so you guys, we are days away from going to Poland, so we'll be in Poland for a few days. I guess it's like the 20, 20th of the 22nd so you should come with Karen Frischmann, and I don't know when I'm coming back, as I was talking to my friend Clare, like I'm really aiming to travel, like I combine the travels and it might be like 2028 so xxll.co/poland that I'm gonna go to, technically, I'll be in Bruges, but we've been saying Brussels. So, you know, same country, just a difference, but it's at Els Studio. Pilatels we with Karen Frischmann, Els and my friend Ignacio. We all study with Jay Grimes together. That one's almost sold out. It's xxll.co/brussels but yes, we'll be in Bruges, and then after a second honeymoon in France, Brad and I will be at POT London. That is almost sold out, and at the time that this episode is dropping, you can still get the 10% off that ends like literally next week. So xxll.co/pot, at the time we're recording, I have a few spots left in my Sunday workshop, and just because London is different than Poland, doesn't mean that I'll get there any sooner. So you're gonna want to go. And then when we come back, we have spring training. So if you are Pi-curious, Pilates curious, or you're advanced practitioner who's just struggling with some exercises, you're going to want to be in that week long training. You want to go to opc.me/events is where you want to go, because that is where we are having a lot of fun. And if you're on the events list and you get you'll never miss the early bird. You'll miss you'll get all the bonuses. So go there. Lesley Logan 6:18  Okay, before we get into this recap, Clare, you're taking over the questions the next two weeks. So what do you want to ask me?Clare Solly 6:24  I am. So, you know, I noticed that we're at 650 episodes like, wow, how did that happen? That's not the question, sorry. And that was too easy. But since this is the Be It Pod, what is your next big Be It item, Lesley? Lesley Logan 6:40  Oh my God, there's a few I can't tell you guys just yet, or kind of like they're not public yet. But what I'll tell you that is public, and you'll actually experience on the show, I am being it till I see it as a solo podcast. Clare Solly 6:52  Oh. Lesley Logan 6:53  So don't worry, the interviews are not going away. I just want to reduce how many we have. We did a habit series, which was a longer series, and it was combined with guest episode. And then I did a week about burnout, and then a week about self-love. The self love one was the week of Valentine's Day. I think that's appropriate. And so I want your topics that you want me to nerd out about. You guys, you can go to beitpod.com/questions, and just so topics for Lesley to talk about. And so basically, like, I want to take a topic and then do two episodes on it, so Tuesday, Thursday. So we're not going to change your cadence of when your episodes come, but I feel like you couldn't have, like, I would have been too stressed out to do a solo episode ever when we first started the pod, and now that we're 600 something episodes in, and I do all these FYFs, I'm like, I think I'm ready to, like, take on maybe one one week or two weeks a month, of just like, owning the podcast myself and giving you the information from my perspective and and hopefully holding space for topics you want to know about. And that's a little scary for me, because I won't be able to let someone else's light shine and then, like, bounce off of them. I have to, like, shine it myself. Clare Solly 7:59  I just kind of want to reiterate what you're saying, because I think it's really, really important for all your listeners, especially this is the Be It Pod, and it's something you and I have talked about incessantly in our lives. So you've done 650 episodes, five, I want to say it's like been five and a half years, almost six years, that you've been doing this, and you're just now ready to start out on your own. So everybody who's listening. You don't have to take that long, but you also can take that long. And then just want to reiterate, too. If you have a question, text us at 1-310-905-5534, or submit it at beitpod.com/questions.Lesley Logan 8:36  That's what, I want your topics. I want your questions, I want your wins. They all go in the same place. I know that's weird, because it's just questions. But like, maybe the questions will inspire a podcast series. But I just, I know, I think I was probably ready sooner than before. But like, it's a big deal to change the how you run your show. Like, it means I have to, like, tell everyone on the team what I want to do, and then they have to, like, adjust everything. And like, you know, it used to be a little like tugboat that I was doing this business, and now it's kind of more like a yacht, and I have to, like, it's harder to turn a yacht around. Clare Solly 9:04  It's harder to turn a yacht around. Lesley Logan 9:06  It's not a cruise ship. We're not that big yet, but it is a you have to be a little bit more cautious about how you turn. There's little tug boats out there. All right.Clare Solly 9:18  Well, should we talk about Tess Waresmith now? Lesley Logan 9:20  I think we should. Tess is an accredited financial counselor, trademark, and the founder of Wealth with Tess, a platform dedicated to financial education for women, she teaches an approachable investing and money fundamentals that support independence and long term security. Tess's work centers on helping women build enough financial stability, to have options later in life, including the ability to step back from work and retire with confidence.Lesley Logan 9:49  I really am so glad she's in my life. I we've had her on the pod before, and I was just like obsessed with her. I've done her course actually, and I just think that like, we need more women like her talking about money, because she does it in such an honest way. And she's vocal about what's going on in our world and how it's affecting, like, your money, not rich people's money. And we've been, like, kind of conditioned. I think that, like, rich people know what to do when they get money. And so she said on the pod that I really love she's like, money is a tool. It's not either good or bad or evil, it's just a tool. And she really made the argument that, like, good people should actively seek to acquire more money because they make a bigger impact and donate to causes that you care about. I couldn't agree more, because, like, look, there's a lot going on, and we're like, what's my $20 going to do? But you know, if you have money that you are able to, like, have extra of, you're more likely to give it to local causes that inspire you based on your own life experiences. Maybe you donate to a local cause, like, we donate to the SPCA because I want to adopt all the rescue dogs, and I cannot, and they're here, and my money goes farther with them here. You know, there's people right now who are needing, like, rent help or health care support, and like, if you have an extra $100 you can give it to people and so I think we should, those of us who have a heart actually should be the ones with the money. Clare Solly 11:06  I agree. I agree. And I think to, sort of to, like, piggyback onto that thought, too, giving money, you have to decide if you want to see it in action or not. Like you you give locally because you want to see it in action. But some people want their money to go farther, and they don't need to see it in action. So figure out what you care about. I love that.Lesley Logan 11:23  What a great point, Clare, because I do think that sometimes we go, oh my god, what are people going to think that I'm not giving to like the environment or like the home, like, there I had someone on early in the podcast who talked about, like, if you can take what you care about and you can give to that, whether it's time or money, you will see change. And if someone else cares about something different, and they focus on that, I think we, as especially as women, feel this pressure that we have to, like, care about all the cares. And, and you should have some empathy for all the cares, but also you'll you're you'll exhaust yourself and your mind, and then you'll be too busy to actually like, go and acquire the wealth that gives you the independence and freedom to choose how you spend your money and who gets that money. And I do think that, like, we'd be in a different place right now if more people had some independence be due to finances. I think some people don't leave terrible jobs because of money, and that means bosses can be abusive and they can't, you know, there's just different things that if we if the. Clare Solly 12:21  I was one of them. Lesley Logan 12:22  Yes, oh my gosh, yes. I know. So, like, I don't know. I just, I really, but I think we need to continue to remind ourselves that money is a tool. Clare Solly 12:31  Yeah, well, in my podcast with you, way, way, way back when, I'm sure your team will put it in the show notes, I want to say it's episode 19, single, double digits, baby. I was early on, but I was the woowoo side of this. Like money is energy, and it is a measure on the energy you as a human put into something that your company gives back to you so you can use, you know, because we're not in the days of of goats trading, you know, the goat that you farm for the milk that I need. So go back and listen to that podcast, everybody. That's your homework. But one thing I loved, and actually, I kind of want to, I have two things. I'm gonna I'm gonna take it. I love that she said, we're afraid as women, especially, to talk with our friends about money, and I think we need to like because we are afraid of money, because we've been trained to be afraid of money and not spending it or spending it when we have it, and then, you know, so we as women kind of are trained to go between feast and famine, because we don't talk about what people have. And bonus, we're all so used to the Instagram version of everybody, so like, I, you know, I'm jealous of like and like, you're one of my best friends. And I tell you, I'm like, I'm jealous of your lifestyle, and you're like, girl, you were seeing the tip of the iceberg. And but like, well, and then we'll talk about things, and we'll talk about a minute, and it's sometimes not directly bank account related, but we'll talk about things like you just mentioned you found this great person you've been wanting, and you, you know, you bargain chopped for it because you wanted this purse and. Lesley Logan 14:04  Yeah. I wanted this purse. It's not cheap. And I was like, well, I don't want to spend that much, but I want to, I want to buy it. So I'm just gonna wait and be patient. And I think, like, I do think I had, I have had friends who are like, because they care. They're like, well, how much was it? I'm like, I'll tell you, because if you want this bag, you should know, don't pay more than I paid. You can get it.Clare Solly 14:23  Yeah, yeah. And it's all like, what we value versus how much we have and, and I think one thing too, that she said was, like, don't overspend what you make. And I think that, you know, I think there's a little bit of gappage in there, but if you're really trying to control yourself, like, yeah, make sure that you can, you can pay close to what your credit cards are. Lesley Logan 14:42  Well and there's so many tools now, like, there's and I think that are different than what we had when we were growing up, which was just like a piece of paper and a budget, you know, like a checkbook. Do you remember, doing the checkbook and doing the math. And I think that, like, you know, it's true, especially because in our lifetimes, our moms finally had permission to get their own bank account, their own loans, you know, and their own credit cards. I'm like, that's crazy, that in our lifetimes. So it's, it's, it's clear that the education about that. But I, if people ask me, you know, about different things, like, I'm very honest, like, you know, we got, you didn't know I had a new car, and it's a car that I've wanted for over 10 years. And I literally said, you know, like, this is a write off.Clare Solly 15:22  And I totally thought you borrowed a car from a friend. When you picked me at the airport, I was like, how did you borrow your dream car from a friend? That's amazing.Lesley Logan 15:29  Yeah, well, I mean, like, because I don't, like, I don't put a ton of of the stuff on the internet, because people will make up a different story about it. And, like, I but I am really honest with in our coaching business, we'll tell people like, this is why you should set your business up this way, because these things are write offs, and you'll get these kinds of things. And, like, the reality is the rich got richer because they know how the loopholes are right. And like, am I a fan of, like, a flat tax for everybody so there's no write offs, but yeah, because I think the world of Pilates is a better place, and there will still be someone who finds a loophole for it. But like, I actually do want my tax dollars to work for the people that do have less. Like, I actually want to be like, yeah, this my tax money goes to the health care and the housing and the education of the people coming because, like, like, it's this funny joke that I'm very much stuck on. But like, I don't, I don't have children, so who is going to take care of me when I am older, right? Like. Clare Solly 16:17  You now is going to take care of you when you're older, right? Lesley Logan 16:19  Yeah, right. So like, you know, I need to have money for that. And I also want people who are not me to be educated in a way that they could support me when I'm in need. I don't want someone who, you know what I mean. So I think, like, I wish more people thought like that. I do think that anyone listening to this podcast does care about how others are, and so, you know, yes, it's voting, and yes, it's all these different things. But also, until the government actually works for the people, we women are more likely to spend our money in our communities and support other people. And so we need to understand how the game is played and use it. And maybe it means, like, figuring out, you know, maybe it's using, like, something like a Rocket Money to figure out where your money is going. I don't know. They don't sponsor the show, but if someone knows them, I'll take a commercial ad from them, I'll take that money and I'll give it to the SPCA. But like, I think if you don't know where your money is going yet, that's the first place to start, you know.Clare Solly 17:14  Yeah and to, like, to start the conversation. This kind of goes into my second point, or my second you know, love it Be It item from this. I think, like, one of the conversation starters that you can have with your friends, it's easier than, hey, Lesley, how much do you make annually? Because, like, that's also a touchy subject, and sometimes we don't want to share that, but maybe start talking about the economy and the stock market being different things, and talk to your friends about, like, what they're interested in and if they invest, and how they invest, because she mentioned a whole bunch of things, 401(K), Roth IRA, a regular IRAM. She also said the thing about investing for her, her niece, you can do that for yourself. You can throw $100 in a Rocket Money account, an Acorns account, just a regular savings account, a CD like start talking to your friends about how they make their money work for them. And if they're not, like, find a buddy. And like, start going down and share things. Like Lesley and I, we shuttle things back and forth to each other all the time about, like, business and how to invest and things like that. And like, it's not mind blowing, earth shattering, and sometimes it's a reiteration, but we do talk about money, and I'm so glad I have you to be able to talk about money openly. It's so great.Lesley Logan 18:29  Well, I agree same. I mean, like, the thing is, you who told me, because, like, I work for Equinox, and they told me, in my benefits package, there's a 401(K), right? And there's a program, and they did, like, some sort of matching up to some amount of money. And my male trainer was like, Do you are you doing the 401(K)? And I was like, Oh no, I don't really know what to do. And he's like, you just say you want it, like, and they'll just take the money out. And like, I didn't know. No female around me had told me to do it. And I'm not saying that they're at fault. Like, I could have done the research. But like, sometimes we all have so much going on, and so like, making sure that our friends know these things, or at least your colleagues, like, hey, yeah, did you hear that they're doing a match on the 401? K, I upped my like, announce that. Because everyone wins, by the way, everyone wins whenever, when you're, when, when that happens. And retirement does affect us all. Like, it's just going to if you're, if your family members don't, aren't set up for retirement, it's going to negatively affect you in some way. Either they're gonna need more from you, or they're gonna be working forever and you're gonna have less time with them. So I think that's important. So that happened, and then, because I have friends and clients like my business of just teaching people who obviously people have private session Pilates, they have a little bit more money, I let them talk about what they were doing when they were talking about investing, or they're talking about their stocks are down, I would go tell me like, tell me more how that works. Like, I just got curious, and I learned from them. I learned how one of my friends borrowed money from her parents, and she did it the right way so that she'd like pay a loan back, and then she was able to use that in her taxes to write some stuff off. Like, you, people will share with you, but sometimes we're not asking the questions. We just hear them talk about, oh, I'm, I'm, I'm buying this house, or, like, I got, like, I had a friend who was like, Oh yeah, I'm doing, I'm doing a remodel. And I was like, oh, that must be, like, I didn't, like, how long did you save up money for that? Right? She's like, Oh, I did this HELOC. And I was like, Oh, my God, what's a HELOC, right? I don't know these things. I'm a first time homeowner. I don't know anything. What I know is everything fucking is on, on us to fix. But guess what? It's not because we had the AC go down and because our neighbors mentioned something they had, we had checked the right box when it came to our homeowner's insurance. When our AC broke, that motor's $3,000 and Brad was able to do X, Y and Z with the homeowner insurance. And guess what? It's and so we would have been out $3,000 that we didn't need to be. And I think this is where, like talking with your friends, talking with your neighbors, asking what they're doing, if they don't want to tell you, you'll find out. Their body language will shift. They'll get really weird, and then you'll know interesting they don't want to talk about that. I don't have to have a judgment towards it, but I'll find someone else. Yeah, no, I agree. Women, let's talk about money more. Clare Solly 20:58  Let's talk about money more. Okay, all right, so let's talk about those Be It Action Items. What bold, executable, intrinsic or targeted action items can we take away from your convo in preparing or weathering volatility, stock market crashes and building substantial wealth? She advised, money invested in the stock market should be funds you do not need for the next three to five years. It's your fund money, guys. Organize finances by their intended timeline and purpose. Clearly separate short term needs, cash savings from long term goals and keep more money in cash, such as high yield savings account during the uncertain times. This serves two purposes. It provides a safety net to cover expenses without being forced to sell investments, and it prevents emotional and panic-driven decisions. I mean, I have, like, a rule of thumb, because I live in New York City, I have two months of rent saved up, because you never know what's gonna happen.Lesley Logan 21:52  No, I think that that's wise. And thanks for sharing what you're doing. I think, like, you know, Tess was honestly on the pod. She's like, yeah, I'm having, I have, I actually have more cash on hand now. Yeah, it's a little more uncertain right now. And when we were recording this, we're like, it'll be interesting to see when this comes out. Like, what's going on. And I, I asked her, like, I DM-ed her, I said, Hey, your episodes coming out in March. Like, is there anything you want to add? And she's like, I really stand by. Like, the things that I said, and, and, and she and so one of the things that she said in the Be It Action Items is just like, no one cares about your money more than you do. Clare Solly 22:20  No one cares. Lesley Logan 22:21  No one cares about your money more than you do. So if you care about your money, she actually said to go, like, go, I want you to go with the show notes. She has a free guide, and it's been 20 minutes reading it. It takes 20 minutes, and just pick one next action step. Like, honestly, I think we overwhelm ourselves by all the different things that there is to do, the CDs, the 401(K)s. But like, if you start with like, one thing. And for those of you who are employed, like, is there a 401(K)? Are you maxing out it? I know that they've made changes to, like, how much you can max out. So are you maxing out to the new changes? You know, I believe everyone should just have an accountant, because these tax laws are so freaking ridiculous, and your accountant needs to know what your goals are. So you might need to sit down. Maybe your next action step is like, what are my money goals? Like, you know, I'm 43 so my goals now are different than my goals when I was 33 right? So what does that look like? Are they understanding? You know, Brad and I've been very vocal, like, we talked to our accountants all the time. When we bought went to buy our car. We were very specific about, like, Okay, if we buy it this week versus the next week, because it's at the end of the year versus the beginning of the year. Like, what are the risks and losses and pros and cons, and I think that that's important stuff. So obviously, we work for ourselves versus being employed. And, you know what? With chatGPT, you could literally ask it, hey, this is who I am, this is how much I make. This is what's going on. Like, what do you think? Like, I mean, obviously I would, I would research anything it says. But like, there's tools right now to take action so you can be educated one step at a time, you know?Clare Solly 23:40  Yeah, and to kind of piggyback on that. You guys didn't talk about this, but one thing that came to mind when you were talking is, if your gut is saying one thing, and your accountant or your investment person is telling you another, go get a second opinion. Just like a doctor, it's okay to get a second opinion. If you're not feeling like something might be off, like, in it, you don't have to invest with somebody to go do that. Just go, like, call somebody up and say, Hey, I got this advice. They may or may not be like, be able to help you. And so you try to, have to try a second, second opinion, but.Lesley Logan 24:09  You might, and also you should, because if they're like, if your gut is going, hmm, they seem a little shady, then move on. Like, listen to your gut with that. And in fact, Tess's first episode with us really talks about, like, finding those wealth people, or how to do it yourself. So it just depends on, like, you know, what your capabilities are. I will say, like, Brad and I do have someone that we trust helping us, because maybe it'll be different now that we're like, have help with the ADHD, but it just felt like a little bit more than we could take on in this particular moment. But they're very clear, very communicative. We checked with, you know, Tess's fees and all that stuff, so we're making sure that we're making sure that we're not getting screwed over like but so there's just different help out there. And you can also go to Tess as a certain a Substack that is free. Clare Solly 24:49  Really? Lesley Logan 24:50  Yes, it's free. Clare Solly 24:51  Oh I'm signing up. Lesley Logan 24:52  I know I know. Me too, because I like her honesty about everything. I like her attitude. I like she her, you guys, when she teaches you how to actually manage your own accounts, you can literally just do it like I'm just, I have just have a problem with, like, starting new things sometimes, and this is one of them. Obviously, therapy will help, but, and next year could be different, but where I am today, but you can do it like it's, I will. I watched it, I was like, I can do this right now. And I actually opened up my own high yield savings account without Brad did myself. Like, I'm so excited, because that money is what's taking us on our second honeymoon, his and mine. Like, we that was the goal of this particular account that we opened. But she's such good information. You're gonna go to wealthwithtess.substack.com and you can grab it for free. So I (inaudible).Clare Solly 25:36  And Tess is gonna be super proud of you. Like, that's amazing. Lesley Logan 25:39  I know. Clare Solly 25:40  Like, I mean, because we should, again, back to what we first said. We should be in control of our money, because nobody else cares.Lesley Logan 25:46  Yeah, I mean, that's very true. And so anyways, if we can live with anything, it's go take one piece of action on educating yourself about your money that Tess has for you. It's all free out there. And then there's ways to invest if you want to know more. I'm Lesley Logan. Clare Solly 25:58  And I'm Clare Solly. Lesley Logan 26:00  Thanks for joining us today. I hope you had fun with Claire and I if you miss Brad, he'll be back in a couple weeks. Don't worry, he's not going anywhere. But we are so grateful for you, and I can't think of a better episode to share with a friend than our money episodes with Tess and Clare. So you can listen to the woo one. You can listen to the legit one. You can listen to this update. Not that yours is not legit, but I guess how should I say it. You can listen to the dry one. What is it? What's the opposite of woo, like. Clare Solly 26:26  Grounded in fact. I don't know.Lesley Logan 26:29  Grounded. I don't know. It's not I, I think that like everything in moderation, including moderation, yeah. So well listen to both of them, and then go take some action steps that work for you. And until next time, Be It Till You See It. Clare Solly 26:39  Go do your homework. Lesley Logan 26:40  Do it. Lesley Logan 26:42  That's all I got for this episode of the Be It Till You See It Podcast.

Tourisme : promenades à dos d'éléphants, spectacles d'orques, atomic parties… ces pratiques autrefois normales désormais interdites

L'Indonésie vient de prendre une décision forte : interdire les promenades touristiques à dos d'éléphant.Une mesure saluée par de nombreuses associations de protection animale, qui parlent d'un tournant historique pour le bien-être des pachydermes. Mais cette interdiction suscite aussi des inquiétudes parmi certains acteurs locaux. Pour eux, ces activités constituaient une ressource économique importante, notamment pour financer des centres de conservation d'une espèce protégée.Ce débat illustre une évolution plus large : certaines pratiques touristiques, autrefois considérées comme normales, sont aujourd'hui devenues difficilement acceptables.Prenons par exemple les spectacles de dauphins et d'orques dans les parcs aquatiques. Pendant longtemps, ces shows étaient l'une des attractions phares du tourisme familial. Mais le regard a changé.De plus en plus de pays légifèrent pour limiter ou interdire ces pratiques. Le Mexique, qui abrite environ 10 % des quelque 3 000 dauphins vivant en captivité dans le monde, impose désormais des conditions plus strictes : les animaux ne peuvent plus être maintenus dans des bassins en béton et doivent vivre dans des enclos marins.En Belgique aussi, la question avance. Le delphinarium de Bruges, dernier du pays, devra fermer au plus tard en 2037. Le ministre flamand du Bien-être animal, Ben Weyts, a même évoqué la possibilité d'une fermeture anticipée.Ces évolutions sont le fruit de décennies de mobilisation. Dès les années 1990, des campagnes dénonçaient déjà la captivité des cétacés. Un film a d'ailleurs marqué les esprits à cette époque : Sauvez Willy. L'histoire d'une amitié entre un garçon et une orque captive dans un delphinarium.Le succès du film a contribué à sensibiliser le public. Une fondation a même été créée pour sauver l'orque qui incarnait Willy à l'écran, Keiko, et lui permettre de retrouver l'océan.Autre domaine où les mentalités ont changé : les cirques. En Belgique, les animaux sauvages y sont désormais interdits. Une avancée obtenue après des années de campagne menées notamment par l'association GAIA, qui dénonce depuis longtemps l'exploitation animale dans les spectacles.Le tourisme animalier a lui aussi connu des dérives spectaculaires. Pendant des années, certains visiteurs se rendaient en Thaïlande pour se faire photographier aux côtés de tigres dans un temple devenu célèbre.Mais en 2016, le site a été fermé par les autorités. Les enquêteurs ont découvert que les tigres étaient sédatés pour rester calmes devant les touristes. L'enquête a aussi révélé l'existence d'un trafic d'espèces sauvages.Toutes ces pratiques témoignent d'une époque où la question du bien-être animal était beaucoup moins prise en compte.Mais les changements ne concernent pas seulement les animaux.Certaines formes de tourisme humainement ou culturellement problématiques ont aussi disparu. Dans les années 1950, par exemple, Las Vegas était surnommée la capitale du “tourisme atomique”. Les hôtels et casinos organisaient des “atomic parties” sur leurs toits pour permettre aux visiteurs d'observer les champignons nucléaires provoqués par les essais atomiques dans le désert du Nevada.Aujourd'hui, cette idée paraît totalement absurde.Dans un autre registre, certaines pratiques touristiques autrefois tolérées sont désormais interdites pour protéger des sites patrimoniaux ou sacrés. Il est par exemple interdit aujourd'hui d'escalader les pyramides en Égypte ou au Mexique.Même chose en Australie, où l'ascension du célèbre rocher d'Uluru est interdite depuis 2019. Ce site est sacré pour les peuples aborigènes, qui considèrent que le piétiner constitue un manque de respect.Les mentalités évoluent, et le tourisme aussi.Ce qui semblait normal hier peut devenir impensable aujourd'hui. Et à bien des égards, c'est peut-être le signe d'un monde qui apprend — lentement mais sûrement — à voyager avec davantage de respect.Vous aimez ce contenu ?

Myriam Spira « L'envol de la mémoire » (Grasset) Betty, résistante, a vingt et un ans lorsqu'elle est arrêtée à Bruges, en mars 1942, pour avoir dissimulé un poste émetteur clandestin. Elle est déportée au camp de Ravensbrück puis de Mauthausen. Joseph, juif et résistant, est arrêté quelques mois plus tard, Gare du Midi à Bruxelles, et déporté à Auschwitz-Birkenau. C'est après leur libération, à bord d'un train de la Croix-Rouge, que Betty et Joseph se rencontrent. Cinq enfants grandissent dans l'ombre de ce couple singulier, beau et meurtri. Cinq enfants pour reconstruire une famille décimée, celle de Joseph, dont le père et les quatre frères et soeurs ont été assassinés dans les camps. Petite, Myriam Spira écoutait ses parents raconter : la faim, le froid, les souffrances, la douleur des expériences médicales. Mais aussi leur combat pour la vie, l'espoir de retrouver une existence normale. Cet héritage douloureux imprègne l'âme des enfants qui connaîtront le mal-être existentiel, et la difficulté à devenir parents à leur tour. Autant de symptômes d'une transmission souvent indicible.

And there's not enough words, he said, to encapsulate the power in that as a photographer. Lesley Logan 0:09  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 powerful convo I have with another Brad. Brad Walsh. Brad Crowell 0:55  Another Brad. Lesley Logan 0:55  In our last episode. If you haven't yet listened to that interview, then actually listen to this one. You should go back and listen that one. It's pretty good. I liked it. Brad Crowell 1:05  That's a great interview. It was, I'm not gonna lie you, you spoke my thoughts out loud. Lesley Logan 1:10  I did? Brad Crowell 1:11  Yes. Like. Lesley Logan 1:12  Did I say that I have to say Brad's thoughts? Brad Crowell 1:14  No, but two. There's another comment I can't remember. It'll come back to me. But you know when, when I heard you introduce Brad Walsh as someone who is entirely devoted to platforming and empowering women, I was like, a man is doing that? Okay, okay. I was like, I guess, I guess I'm I didn't even know. I was dubious and a little curious and then encouraged and excited at by the end. So, yes, it's great.Lesley Logan 1:45  Turns out you can be really successful if you platform women. Turns out. Brad Crowell 1:50  How about that? Lesley Logan 1:51  Yeah, it turns out there's, there's things like, there's like, good things that happen when you do that.Brad Crowell 1:55  You did mention that you had similar thoughts to him, and I was laughing, because I was like, okay, I'm not alone. Lesley Logan 1:59  Yeah. I'm intrigued. Well, we'll get into that in just a second. But first today is February 26th 2026 and it's Black Lives Matter Day. Black Lives Matter Day is celebrated annually on February 26th in remembrance of Trayvon Martin, an African American teen who was killed by a white American out of hatred. The acquittal of the killer, George Zimmerman, from the murder charge and is roaming free, caused a wave of widespread anger, which led to nationwide campaigns centered around fairness and justice for black people. Black Lives Matter is a chant against systemic racial discrimination which has shaped and increased the risk of violence towards black people. Join in the movement to end discrimination, declare equality for all.Brad Crowell 2:39  Yeah. So one of the things that I wanted to address is we're obviously not black. However, we have heard a lot of people who are not black say, well, what about white people? Or what about other, you know, people as well? Shouldn't we be focusing on them as much as we are focusing on black people? And ultimately, I would say Black Lives Matter does not say other lives don't matter. But what Black Lives Matter is saying is that there is a historical, documented like systematic approach against that has not given the same opportunities in our society, in our in the United States of America, to black people, whereas it has favored, white people. Lesley Logan 3:37  Oh one thing and I heard that I heard this in 2020 and I'll share it here. It doesn't mean you didn't have to swim uphill, it just meant that you had a paddle, it just means that, like, you could have had a hard life but there, the research is there, even if your family came here like mine did in the 1912 all this stuff, the research is, is, is very much there, the status are there that because after slavery, we didn't, we did not treat black people the same as white people, the wealth that their families could pass down, which whether or not you got any money, because I didn't either whether doesn't matter. It doesn't mean that you that there was less opportunity for their generations of families to have options. And there's actually a black family, a guy who was able to buy slaves, the black man who was able to buy his family as slaves. And so then when when slavery ended, there was this whole, basically reparations for the slave owners. And so he was given money for the slaves that he lost, and you can see his family and the generations that came from his family, and how different their lives were compared to other black people and so especially as we're watching this right now where brown people are being targeted in an insane way, black and brown people, but we're seeing a lot of it with brown people because of ICE. I'm just gonna say who it is, because of that. The reality is, is because.Brad Crowell 5:02  Because of ICE directed it by, you know, Stephen Miller and our president.Lesley Logan 5:06  And our president and his vice president, we're gonna add in there. Because some people think if we just got rid of Trump at life would be better. No, you'll still have a shit sandwich. So the reality is, because we've never had Black Lives Matter, we are all being affected. All every other color is going to have a hard time. And by the way, white people, you are too, your life is not going to get easier because they got rid of some brown people, or they only pull over black people. You're this is a community.Brad Crowell 5:32  But I want to go back to this. I agree with the things that you're saying, but I want to go back to this by saying let white lives matter too. We're actually sidestepping the issue. And that's the problem. The problem is not that white lives don't matter. That's not what we're saying, and that's not what you know, that's not what, when someone says Black Lives Matter, they're not saying white lives don't matter too. But what they but when we say white lives matter too, we're we're just derailing the conversation away from the fact that there has been systemic oppression of people in our society for 400 years, right?Lesley Logan 6:05  And also, by the way, if you vote for the people of color who are different than you, you benefit too. By the way, if you've not, I'm not saying vote for people of color. I'm saying if you vote for the people who will represent the people of the least of these, you will benefit. You'll benefit in so many different ways.Brad Crowell 6:20  But here's the thing, that, yes, that you will absolutely benefit when there is, like, cultural and systemic racism against a particular group, it almost empowers violence towards that group, and that is where the that's where everyone got really, really frustrated with this murderer who was literally set free, you know, and, and I couldn't agree more, you know, it's, it's, it's wrong.Lesley Logan 6:50  It's just fucked up. I mean, to be honest, the whole thing that he stood on, that law that he stood on, is stupid, and it's in several different states, and people and like kids have been killed since then because they knocked on the wrong door. A black kid last year knocked on the wrong door looking to pick up his brothers, and they shot him because he's a black kid at their door. Like, what the, I'm sorry, that is infuriating. And we, we are not done. And I think, like, we got past 2020. Brad Crowell 7:18  It's like a mix of fear and racism and the fact that they're ever like. Lesley Logan 7:21  But they're, I won't even give them warrant over fear they're fucked up. Like, come on, I'm sorry.Brad Crowell 7:26  Like their bread fear is like, spued into their life.Lesley Logan 7:31  Right, I guess. But also like, we live in a world where you can curate your own algorithm and and these people are not taking the time to even, like, think about somebody else's experience at all, just their own, and they're so self-centered, and then they vote for people who lie to them and use them and use fear to use them. And now look where we're at. People are dying, and they're like, but my life still sucks. Yeah, it does. You voted for people who made sure it fucking sucked. And I am just like, the guns are the fucking problem. And then we have to. We voted we got rid of Trump the first time. We're like, oh, good. All this stuff is better. No, it's not. The Democrats didn't work fucking fast enough. And now we're here in this place of shit where black people still don't have the rights that white people do, and now brown people are being attacked in crazy ways. And by the way, like, if you're so concerned with, like, immigrants and crime. Like last year, immigrants killed three people, and ISIS killed 33 people from the stats that I just looked at. So like, I just think that, like, there's things that we could be taking into perspective, and it requires us to be more considerate of people who look different than us, and also fighting for their rights, because it will help yours. Anyways, end of rant. And by the way, that's a long conversation that we were like trying to get out. So if we like, that's something a little weird forgiveness, because we're all growing. We're all learning. You get amped up. Lesley Logan 8:50  So anyways, I want to get into what's going on. We just wrapped up Agency Mini last week, and so you missed it. Brad Crowell 9:02  Congratulations, it's over. Lesley Logan 8:57  Congratulations. You can't get on the waitlist, but you can get on the waitlist for the next one. We will do one more this year, prfit.biz/mini prfit.biz/mini that's profit without the O and it is for Pilates instructors and studio owners who work for themselves or want to so highly recommend it. Now we're getting up and we're gearing. We're gearing. We're gearing up and getting ready because we will be gone for an entire month in Europe. Brad and I, we're not taking Bayon on this trip. On this trip, and so we'll be first in Poland at the Controlology Conference to Contrology Pilates Conference in Wroclaw with Karen Frischmann, xxll.co/poland you can come from anywhere to go to that. Karen and I speak in English, and it will be translated into Polish. So if you can do either of those languages, that conference is for you. And then after that, Brad, Karen and I are going to go to the Contrology. We're going to Brussels to Pilatels like Vintage Pilates and friends. Ignacio is going to be there. El is the owner. She's going to be there. The four of us are gonna be teaching workshops and classes. It's gonna be a long, fun filled days. I promise these are something you don't wanna miss. Els really throws a party with these xxll.co/brussels, and I guess we're gonna be like in Bruges. So that's really cool. Don't quote me. It's all on the site. Just go there. Brad Crowell 9:02  Sounds fun. Lesley Logan 9:02  We have a lot of eLevate and other people that we know are going to that one. So it's gonna be a really fun party. And then after our second honeymoon, which your recommendations for things to do between Brussels and Paris that get us to London are welcomed, because we're going to take that train. I think, hopefully we can. That's the plan. We clearly haven't looked up anything. I just heard you can go from Paris to London, so that's what we're going to do. But you can join us at POT London. My Saturday workshop is filled, but there is a few spots left in the Sunday workshop that I'm teaching, but you should come to any of the workshops, because there's some excellent presenters at the POT in London, xxll.co/pot. By the way, that link will take you to all the POTs that Balanced Body is doing right now. Right now the only one on that schedule that I'm going to be at is POT London. We will have a booth at a couple others, but if you want to take workshop from me in Europe, you've got three weekend options, and that is it for at least a year, maybe two. So check it out xxll.co/pot, and then we come home, we're gonna get ready for spring training. Brad Crowell 11:16  Yeah, really looking forward to it. This year we're gonna change it up. Lesley Logan 11:19  How to get overhead. Brad Crowell 11:20  How to get overhead. So last year's spring training was so fun. We had people join us from all over the world. We had teachers join us from all over the globe, all the OPC teachers, and it was a big party. And we were digging into, well, each year we're digging into a different topic. So this year's topic is how to get overhead. And I know we kind of said this last week on the pod. But you don't have to be able to get overhead right to come learn. Lesley Logan 11:46  I don't like that. It's not have to get overhead, it's a how to. It's really finding your own version of overhead exercises. It's really just, you're here to find your own and that's what Pilates is making your own personal practice practice. It's called Contrology, the study of control. Not controlled.Brad Crowell 12:02  Yeah, not controlled. So come join us. Go to opc.me/events opc.me/events to grab a spot on the waitlist so that you're gonna be the first one to know when we do that in May. Before we get into this great interview with Brad, let's dig into this question. So on YouTube, @wanderlustonwheels asks, I would love to see recommendations for us perimenopausal ladies on the Cadillac. I am also hyper mobile, so I can't really do any mat work without fabricating and crunching my joints and pinching my nerves. I always end up with neck cranks that keep me from sleeping when I do mat work. So this is like multiple things rolled up into one. Lesley Logan 12:45  Yeah, I'm gonna keep it tight, because I appreciate your question about perimenopausal exercises on the Cadillac. And unfortunately, the way that Pilates has been changed, in some ways, is that people think I need to know this type of exercise for this piece of equipment, but really it's a system. And actually all Pilates is available to any perimenopausal woman on any piece of equipment. So what's cool about Pilates is it actually is a low cortisol producing workout, or it should be. And if yours is not, then you're probably not doing Pilates. It's a mind body connective work, and you're not moving super slow or super fast. There's some moments with zest and there's some moment with rhythm. But in in all honesty, most Pilates exercise classes session should actually be low cortisol producing really great for building strength and for getting that mind body connection, which will bring down that cortisol levels. And you should be able to sleep really, really well. So I'm not gonna say which exercises are great for perimenopause, because they all are, but depends on which ones your body needs right now. And that actually has nothing. That has very little to do with perimenopause, and more to do with like, what's going on with your body, the fact that you're hyper mobile, you didn't mention that you have EDS. So if you had EDS, this was a it's a different story, and you should definitely be working. You should really make sure to find an EDS teacher near you, trained teacher near you or online. Because the fact that when you do mat work your nerves are pinched and you have neck cranks makes me actually nervous that you're not doing actual Pilates exercises, and somebody is using the popularity of Pilates to entice you in, because if you're doing Pilates from your center on the mat as a hyper mobile person, the worst case scenario you're going to have is that it's easy. I'm a hyper mobile body, and so it would just feel easy to me because I was just locking my joints out and over stretching things and kind of hanging off of things. But the fact that you're actually having pinched nerves and neck cranks tells me that there's some sort of pressure that's being pulled to you in these exercises.Brad Crowell 14:46  Well, I think, I think, like, okay, so also hypermobile here. And did you know in like, super intense yoga for like, a long time before moving to Vegas and so now I do yoga differently, but before it was like, you know, 3, 4, 5 days a week doing yoga. And I definitely understand the idea of, like, crunching joints and pinching nerves, or I don't understand fabricating. That doesn't mean anything to me. But, you know, just because you can force your body into a shape doesn't mean you're doing it correctly. Lesley Logan 15:18  Well and also, I think that, like, something that you had to learn was that not every cue is for you. And I think sometimes in a class we hear them say something, so we do it in a hyper mobile people, we can keep going like, our end range isn't there, whereas a tighter person would be like, get stuck on something.Brad Crowell 15:35  I mean, look, I you know, I could put my head, my foot behind my head on the first day of class, the very first day, like, and they were like, your yoga practice is amazing. I was like, I'm brand new. What are you talking about? Right? So.Lesley Logan 15:46  And that teacher should have been like, oh, even though you can do that, you should not do that, because you don't know what you're doing.Brad Crowell 15:51  Right. You don't know how to engage your muscles, to protect your body. And that's what, to me, that's what it sounds like here, when you have crunching joints or pinching nerves, like in Pilates, we talk about the five spine shapes. And the spine shape that that you should focus on as a hyper mobile body is tall.Lesley Logan 16:07  Yeah, look at you, Brad. Brad Crowell 16:09  Oh yeah. Lesley Logan 16:10  Look at you. So so @wanderlustonwheels, like, here's the thing, if you were an OPC member and I was you sent in a video of you doing a couple of the mat exercises, just a couple reps, I don't want you to hurt anything, I could actually see what's going on. Without being able to see it just based off what I'm reading, it sounds to me that the person who's teaching the class is not teaching your body. They are teaching a class, and that is hard because it's more accessible for you to go to a class or to watch a YouTube video, but not everything is going to be for you. And so actually learning how to move from your center is going to be key, and that might mean investing in some time or some money to get either an OBC membership or a studio near you, where a teacher can actually look at you and go, oh, that's too high. Oh, that's too much. Or here are these exercises, because the mat work, like I said, as a hypermobile, it should just feel easy, and the fact you're getting hurt, really, like alarm bells are going off for me. Brad Crowell 17:03  There's a second thing I wanted to say on this, and I'm not a physical therapist, but also being a hypermobile body, the best thing that has that I've done for my body in the past five years is lifting weights.Lesley Logan 17:16  Well and, for perimenopausal women, you should be so people who actually do Pilates say I should lift weights. It's not an or it's an and I do both. I lift heavy weights and I do Pilates.Brad Crowell 17:27  Because, because the strength, here's here's where this has been weird for me, because I am, like, super competitive, the guy who wants to be the guy who can, you know, bend over backwards and and, like, you know, touch my toes backwards. I want to be that guy, because if they can do it, so can I. That's how my mentality has always been, and I could do a lot more flexibility things, maybe not properly, but with my hypermobility before I started becoming more strong, but with the strength added, which, you know, has been like, a process over multiple years. My body hurts way less, way less. I can still jack myself up, and I can still be like, oh man, I'm in my lower back right now. I can feel it, you know. But because my, because I've been like, my shoulders don't hurt anymore. They used to. My knees are hurting less they, you know, my back especially has been hurting less, and then, you know, I haven't had neck issues the way that you're describing them. But like, you know, if you strengthen your neck, imagine.Lesley Logan 18:31  Well, that's the thing that people, especially while we're doing that, going back to that spring training with overhead, I ask you, like, what they're nervous about and everyone's afraid of their neck. And I'm like, one, you should be on your neck. And two, your neck should be strong. Most people, like, are so afraid of hurting their neck that they're not actually strengthening their neck anymore, and their necks getting weaker. And so guess what? It's actually gonna you're gonna hurt it just sitting around. So I, I really, like, I feel for people because, like, what if? So what if @wanderlustonwheels, like, can't go to any place, right? What if she, like, doesn't have money or the time, and she like, I get that it's about listening to your body. And really true, like, sometimes you have to film yourself, because if you're looking at someone do something, and then you're trying to make yourself look like them. But then when you actually film yourself, you go, oh, wow, look at how hyperextended or look where my chin is like that could help you or if you can invest in even just some privates, going hey, I need to know these foundational exercises for my body. I need to know these foundational weight training exercises for my body. I'm hyper mobile, then you can I truly believe you can do Pilates on your own once you have those foundations. And that's I wouldn't have created OPC if I didn't think so, and you can train on your own. That's why gyms exist. So at any rate, like also, I just really wonder if the person teaching that mat class is actually teaching real mat Pilates or doing lots of extra reps or something. They might be doing Pilates exercises, but doing a ton of reps, or doing it too fast, or adding heavier weights. I say, like, what? I was like, oh, I want lightweights for a class, right? And I showed up and they're like, the lightest one's worth five pounds each. And I'm like, that's not Pilates. That like that should be in a gym, because Pilates is a one pound weight. So like, sometimes, you know, people want to fill the burn and so, and then studios lean towards that, because that's what I think, is there gonna be money, and what we're not doing is educating people, you know? (inaudible)Brad Crowell 20:12  Thanks for writing in that question. There's a lot there, but, but. Lesley Logan 20:17  We have a great workshop on OPC that Mindy Westfall did about Pilates for hypermobility, so I highly recommend taking a look at that.Brad Crowell 20:24  Yeah, that's a great point and and sorry for interrupting you there. But yes, if you have a question, we want to hear it, so text us 310-905-5534, or you can submit it through beitpod.com/questions beitpod.com/questions where you can leave either a win or a question. So send us some wins, people, we want to celebrate with you. Stick around. We'll be right back. We're going to talk about Brad Walsh. Brad Crowell 20:49  All right, let's talk about Brad Walsh. Brad is the host and founder of the Empower Podcast, a Toronto based platform dedicated to amplifying women's stories and strengthening their voices. A lifelong photographer. He discovered his passion in high school, and later transitioned from a 12 and a half year career as corporate audiovisual technician to full time photography, eventually specializing in boudoir work that helps women see their own strength and beauty. His commitment to women's empowerment is rooted in the example set by his mother and grandmother, whose courage shaped the values behind his work today. Lesley Logan 21:23  Yeah, and some cool women in his life. And we've had one photographer on before, and so I was, I was excited to talk a little bit about boudoir photography with him, because I grew up where a lot of women changed their bodies because of what they thought men would like, and then him being a male boudoir photographer who's like, literally loving everybody as it is and showing them how beautiful they are in their own bodies with these photos. And then then they can see how beautiful they are in those photos. It's fucking cool. I think it's great. Thanks, Brad, for not being a dick, you know, like there are some good men out there. Brad Crowell 21:56  If you haven't listened to his episode just yet, his you know, he shared his story a little bit. His dad left, or his mom left his dad, who was, you know, off cheating on her, basically, when he was 10, and they went through it like they were broke. They got an apartment. Mom slept on the couch, because he also has a brother, and he said, you know, her strength and courage to stand back up after 15 years of marriage and say, I'm done with this abuse. She left with nothing but the clothes on her back. And, you know, and then when she got a job because she needed to, after being out of the workforce for over a decade, grandma helped in, you know, stepped in to help. So, you know, very inspirational story there. And also, like, definitely lays the foundation for why he would be encouraging, you know, women and empowering women. So I appreciated hearing a little bit of that. But what are the what is one of the things that he talked about that you really loved?Lesley Logan 22:54  Well, he said, the gift of her seeing herself for the first time a light she's not used to seeing herself in. He said, like, it's so powerful to be able to give that to another human being and.Brad Crowell 23:03  You're specifically talking about his photography, yeah, boudoir photography.Lesley Logan 23:06  Yeah. He said when they see who they truly are and how they're captured, they leave a completely different woman. And there's not enough words, he said, to encapsulate the power in that as a photographer. I mean, I.Brad Crowell 23:19  His conviction, like, was, was so. Lesley Logan 23:21  Oh yeah, you have to hear it. Brad Crowell 23:22  Yeah, it was. It was very compelling. Because he's like, I don't, I don't have the words to say how much that has impacted me. Lesley Logan 23:28  Yeah. Well, I think, like, first of all, ladies, if you're like, I hate being on camera. I don't have (inaudible) you're the one who fucking needs to have your picture taken. Because, like, I was like, oh my God, we have a photo shoot tomorrow, and I love our photographer, and I love our makeup artist, and so I'm like, it's, I know it's going to be a great time, and it's a long day, like we talked about Brooks Tyler's book last week, and it's like, to be on an eight-hour shoot, you you have to have stamina, endurance, and I really think Adderall would have helped, like, just, just to stay focused right for that many hours. But when you see the photos at the end of the day, you're like, oh my God, I'm fucking stunning. And then you like, wake up the next day without hair and makeup, like, I'm fucking stunning. Like, it just keeps going. So, like, I highly recommend doing it, because it does change how you think about yourself. And when you change how you think about yourself, you change how you act, you change how you act, you change how you be it till you see it. I mean, there's no other way to say it. So what did you love?Brad Crowell 24:25  So I really dug when he was talking about resilience, right? And it stemmed from a conversation about being tired of the word resilient. You know, like, I've been told so many times you're so resilient. Well, I don't want to be resilient anymore. Why do I have to keep being resilient?Lesley Logan 24:37  My friends are like, you're the most resilient person, I know I'm like, over it pretty done.Brad Crowell 24:42  And he took a step back and paused, and he's like, well, this is how I see what resilience is. It's, it's courage and inner strength, specifically, when you you keep getting back up after being knocked down time after time, right? And he said, he said it's really important that women be resilient so they can share their experience, and inspire other women by being vulnerable, by sharing their experience. It's a permission slip for others. It shows them what is possible, right? And I thought that's totally relevant and important. And he said, while it can certainly be tiring, it serves a greater purpose, right? And it makes your efforts bigger than just you. You know, it makes your efforts towards whatever it is that you're working on. When you share those things and you continue to get back up, you know, you're giving permission for others to keep going on their journey, which we don't know what exactly what it is, but there's clearly going to be something relatable. He said, even if you're only influencing one person, right? It's worth it. He said, think about that impact, and how you know that you can have and how you can help. Maybe, you know, maybe by sharing your story, your struggles, it will prevent someone from having to go through something similar that you experience, because you know you're sharing how you got through it. So, I mean, that's honestly, like half the reason we do this podcast is hearing, you know, how did they get from A to B? How are they being it till they see, how they get to where they are today and, you know, it's inspirational. I hope you found it as well.Lesley Logan 26:08  I did. I really did. And I couldn't agree more. I mean, like, you're, you know, it's not a podcast I used to listen to before I was ever like when the first they just ended their first season, which is like, more like an ending of a show. I think they call the end of a season one, because they could always come back. But it was like 968, episodes. And I know. And I was just like, interesting. I wonder what it'd be like, like, well, how do you, how do you think about ending it? I read, like, their statement, which is, like, everything that we did worked, and like, look, we've inspired people. And I was like, there must have been a point where they, like, thought it wasn't adding anymore, you know, and but, and every time I'm like, is this podcast like helping anybody out? And then we go on tour, and someone's like, I loved this. And I'm like, well, fuck, we got to keep going because it's fucking hard work podcasting. But I know every stupid bro makes it look like it's the easiest thing you ever did in your life. This is a fucking hard thing that we do every week.Brad Crowell 27:00  Yeah, we're surrounded by a whole team to set us up to be able to even do this.Lesley Logan 27:03  Yes, and you just get to, like, vent or rant or like, I don't know what the fuck they think they're doing, but like, you actually have to, like, have structure and, like, think about these things and think about the people you're platforming. You know, I know that dickhead CEO podcast is like, I'm not platforming these people. I'm having a conversation. No, you're fucking platforming them, right? So, like, sometimes I'm like, oh, do I should I be platforming this person? Because I want to change lives for the better, right? So, and it's difficult because you're like, how do I know this person? How am I going to there's so many things to think about, but I do agree. It's like, if you can change one's person's life with it, like, then it's worth doing, worth all the effort. Brad Crowell 27:33  Yeah, well, stick around. We'll be right back. We're going to dig into those Be It Action Items that we got from your conversation with Brad Walsh. Brad Crowell 27:42  All right, welcome back. 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 conversation with Brad Walsh? He said, you just have to be authentic. Don't try to be something that you're not. And the two of you went back and forth about we need to take back the word authentic, it's overused and overplayed, but there's still something to it. You know? He said, look, when we only show the happy, shiny, beautiful part of the thing that we went through, we're not being honest, and that's not being authentic, because there was definitely some shit we had to go through to get there too, right? And so I think it's fair to say that you can still be selective about all of the shit. You don't have to share everything. We're not airing our dirty laundry, but it's important to show that there's a struggle as well, and that that like contributes to that authenticity. It makes it actually authentic, right? So drill down, you know, be selective, but take that mask off and actually like, be genuine. So what about you?Lesley Logan 28:42  Oh, well, you know, I love this his father's wisdom, who said, what's meant for you will never go by you. And the mantra that I say, which means the same thing, is, like, what is for you will not pass you, or you will not pass you. And I think that that's a really important thing, because it's really easy to, like, hang on to something because we're afraid that something else won't come along. But like, if it's meant for you, will not go by you. And it's something that, like, as our career has taken off, as our business continues to grow, I have to say no to a lot of things, and that means worrying. Oh my god, am I letting something go? Am I saying no to something that could have, like, changed the trajectory? And it's like, I have to trust that what is meant for me will never go by you. What is for me will not pass me. So I hope that gives you something to think about, because it's not going to be all fucking rainbows and glitter, especially right now. Like, it's really hard right now. And I want to recognize every single one of you are listening like, you open up the news and it's fucked, and then you have to go to work and go, how are you? Well, all things considered, not shitty, but, like, it's hard, especially especially as people who have empathy and feelings and and caring. And so you have to keep getting up, doing the best you can. If you live somewhere where you can call someone who represents you and yell at them for what they need to step up, do that, it's part of a great day, and then keep going because if you can affect one person's life to make it better, it does matter.

Griffin Warner talk betting for Tuesday. Griffin Warner returned to break down a packed Tuesday card featuring Champions League second leg matchups and a deep slate of college basketball, while also unveiling a significant promotional offer. The European focus begins with Atletico Madrid hosting Club Bruges after a dramatic 3 3 draw in Belgium. Atletico, now one and a quarter goal favorites at home, surrendered both a 2 0 and 3 2 lead in the first leg. Bruges, who covered plus one and a half previously, showed resilience with several quality attacking moments and a late equalizer. With aggregate scoring determining advancement and extra time looming if tied, Warner prefers holding Bruges plus one and a quarter, anticipating a potentially conservative Atletico approach if they secure a lead. The to advance price heavily favors Atletico, yet Warner does not dismiss Bruges entirely. Inter Milan face a steeper challenge, trailing 3 1 on aggregate to Norwegian side Butuglimpt. Inter are two goal favorites in Milan and minus 1.30 to advance despite the deficit. Road goals no longer matter, increasing the likelihood of extra time if Inter win by two. Warner expects Butuglimpt to defend but remain opportunistic on counters, suggesting plus two and the under three and three quarters could offer value in a controlled match where Inter must press but may struggle to run away. Bayer Leverkusen return home with a 2 0 advantage over Olympiakos after scoring twice in quick succession in Athens. Leverkusen are three quarter goal favorites, yet Warner sees intrigue in Olympiakos if forced to attack. The total sits at three shaded under, but given both sides' scoring tendencies he leans toward over three at plus money, even though Leverkusen are overwhelming favorites to advance. Newcastle's tie appears effectively decided after a dominant first leg against an Azerbaijani opponent, with the English side laying two and a half goals. Warner notes lineup dependent volatility and suggests monitoring numbers shortly before kickoff. Shifting to college basketball, Washington laying five at Rutgers raises red flags due to travel and Rutgers' home setting. Dayton catching five at home against St. Louis stands out given the Flyers' environment despite SLU's strong resume. Notre Dame plus seventeen against top ranked Duke is described as a hold your nose spot, while Georgetown as a short home favorite versus Marquette fits Warner's preferred range for laying points. He questions Virginia's rating against NC State, highlights Cincinnati plus six at Texas Tech after a key injury to JT Toppin, and evaluates West Virginia at Oklahoma State in a Big 12 bubble battle. Oklahoma plus two at home against Auburn becomes the featured play, with Warner expressing skepticism toward short road favorites in critical bubble scenarios. Additional notes include intrigue with Florida State as a home underdog to Miami, Arizona State catching points at TCU, and Nevada at pickem hosting New Mexico. The promotional code West25 offers 25 percent off any purchase at Pregame.com through March 2, including season long access packages, marking the largest discount he has provided on the platform. The official best bet closes the show with Oklahoma plus two on the home floor in Norman against Auburn. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Nous sommes le 24 décembre 1898. En feuilletant « Le Figaro », sous la plume de Gustave Larroumet, historien d'art, écrivain et haut fonctionnaire, on peut lire ceci : « Hier matin, au premier coup d'œil jeté sur le journal, j'éprouvais cette secousse de surprise et de douleur, si fréquent, dans la vie de Paris, où l'on apprend la mort de ses amis avant de les savoir malades. Georges Rodenbach vient d'être enlevé, brusquement, en pleine force, à quarante-trois ans. Il y a quelques jours, il me parlait de son dernier livre et, sachant en quelle estime je tenais son talent, il me quittait sur ces mots : « Parlerez-vous de moi ? » Je lui promis, et je tiens ma promesse avec ces lignes qu'il ne lira pas. Georges Rodenbach avait reçu l'adoption des lettres françaises, grâce au Figaro. Il n'était connu que dans les cénacles, lorsque la publication de « Bruges-la-morte », dans ce journal, vint apprendre son nom au grand public. La poésie de la mort lui ouvrait la vie littéraire. Il contractait ainsi une dette envers l'impitoyable créancière, une dette qu'il paye à bien courte échéance. » Larroumet revient dans la suite de son article sur le parcours et les qualités littéraires de son ami et conclut ainsi : « Il s'est endormi, loin de Bruges, le soir de Noël, à l'heure où le cloches tintent pour la dernière fois, avant le repos de la nuit. Qu'il soit couché dans la terre de France ou que la Belgique réclame son enfant mort, il ne sera pas exilé. Il avait deux patries, celle de son berceau et de celle de sa tombe. » C'est dix ans avant sa disparition que Georges Rodenbach monte à la capitale française. Il devient un parfait dandy, noue des amitiés avec Mallarmé, Mirbeau, Rodin, le jeune Proust et beaucoup d'autres. Chroniqueur de la Belle Epoque, il était un personnage complexe et paradoxal. Tentons d'en percer les secrets … Invité : Marc Quaghebeur, docteur en Philosophie et Lettres Sujets traités : Georges Rodenbach, Figaro, Paris, symbolisme, poésie , dandy, Mallarmé, Mirbeau, Rodin, Proust, Belle Epoque Merci pour votre écoute Un Jour dans l'Histoire, c'est également en direct tous les jours de la semaine de 13h15 à 14h30 sur www.rtbf.be/lapremiere Retrouvez tous les épisodes d'Un Jour dans l'Histoire sur notre plateforme Auvio.be :https://auvio.rtbf.be/emission/5936 Intéressés par l'histoire ?

This week on Inspire Change, Gunter discusses resentment. Resentment is one of the most misunderstood and quietly destructive emotional experiences we carry. In this solo episode of Inspire Change with Gunter, Gunter explores resentment not as explosive anger, but as a slow, chronic emotional accumulation that can shape identity, distort perception, and quietly erode relationships and personal well-being.Through psychological insight, clinical observation, and deeply reflective guidance, Gunter breaks down how resentment forms, why it persists, and how it manifests mentally, emotionally, behaviorally, and even physically in the body. Most importantly, he offers a structured, compassionate roadmap for transforming resentment into clarity, agency, and emotional freedom.This episode invites listeners to examine where unresolved wounds may still be influencing their present lives — and how releasing resentment can become a powerful act of self-liberation.Key Themes & Discussion PointsUnderstanding Resentment Beyond AngerResentment as chronic, unresolved emotional buildupHow resentment often disguises itself as moral righteousness or principleThe connection between resentment and unexpressed truths, unmet needs, and unspoken boundariesThe Three Structural Components of ResentmentPerceived Injury – When expectations, trust, or fairness feel violatedInhibited Expression – When emotions cannot be safely or openly communicatedMoral Accounting – The internal ledger that tracks perceived imbalance in relationshipsHow Resentment Shapes Our Inner WorldThe mind's tendency to replay and reinforce grievance narrativesPolarization of perception that reduces people to their mistakesThe illusion of strength resentment can provide while quietly draining emotional resilienceBehavioral and Relational ManifestationsPassive resistance, sarcasm, withdrawal, and communication breakdownOver-functioning and people-pleasing patterns that create hidden emotional debtScorekeeping in relationships and how it erodes intimacy and connectionThe Physical and Somatic Impact of ResentmentChronic tension and stress responses stored in the bodyEmotional states that influence sleep, mood, and nervous system regulationUsing bodily awareness as an early indicator of unresolved resentmentThe Deeper Psychological and Existential EffectsHow resentment can distort worldview and identityThe role resentment plays in avoiding vulnerability, grief, and personal accountabilityWhy resentment can paradoxically maintain dysfunctional relationshipsMemorable Episode Insights“Resentment is anger that has nowhere to go, combined with the story that it shouldn't have happened."“Resentment is often a protest against helplessness — the psyche saying this mattered.”“Resentment is the guard dog at the gate of grief.”“When you track love like a spreadsheet, intimacy goes bankrupt.”“Letting go of resentment isn't about excusing the past — it's about releasing internal captivity.”Why This Conversation MattersResentment is one of the most common yet unspoken emotional burdens people carry. Left unaddressed, it can limit joy, restrict vulnerability, and shape how individuals relate to themselves and others. This episode encourages listeners to approach emotional healing with precision, accountability, and compassion, creating space for deeper connection, authenticity, and personal transformation.GratitudeHello to all our listeners, we thank you for tuning in and promoting positive social change.  This makes you a part of Gunter's efforts in transforming not only men's lives but lives in general and we are grateful you have joined us.  This week we would like to share our gratitude with our listeners in Belgium.

L'échec est immense pour Marseille et pour son trio dirigeant Pablo Longoria-Medhi Benatia-Roberto De Zerbi. Depuis le début de saison, l'état-major du club répète que le véritable objectif est de retourner en Ligue des champions la saison prochaine, et les suivantes.Hébergé par Audiomeans.

Imagine being drunk, without having drunk a single drop of alcohol, it seems completely implausible, and yet for some is a reality. South-West media shared the story of a motorist who appeared in court in Bruges in 2022 after being found to have too much alcohol in his blood twice in the same year. The man, in his forties, was eventually acquitted, proving that the tests were not the result of a night of drinking, but rather of auto-brewery syndrome.  Self-brewing syndrome, also known as intestinal fermentation syndrome, is when your body turns into a mini-brewery. Professor Alvarez, co-author of an analysis published on the subject in December 2020. says it's when carbs ferment into ethanol right inside your gut, thanks to yeast. Normally, our gut yeast can't brew enough booze to affect us. But for those with auto-brewery syndrome, it's a different story. They've got an overabundance of yeast, and when too much sugar is consumed, it ferments into alcohol, leading to drunkenness. What is it? And what are the consequences? Can it be treated?

Throughout the episode, Chris also shares his strategies for communicating with directors and producers, creatively adapting to shifting budgets, and delegating duties to members of the art department. We also reflect on why and how the Shanghai skyscraper scene in SKYFALL pivoted from a location to a set, and Chris shares an episode of creative problem solving from THE LAST JEDI involving the Millennium Flacon, Yoda, and a tree.
