This week, we're joined by Thomas and Phillip Barreiro! They're both Division 1 wrestlers and multi-time Canadian national champions, plus the operators of Good Mind Grappling: an organization using wrestling and Jiu-Jitsu to address youth trauma. In this episode, Thomas and Phillip break down their "lazy wrestling" framework. They explain how effective stand-up grappling doesn't require explosiveness, but instead relies on frames, hand fighting, pressure, and positional control. This episode reframes wrestling for Jiu-Jitsu athletes seeking safer, more sustainable ways to stay on top and dictate the match.Support Good Mind Grappling:https://goodmindgrappling.comFollow Good Mind Grappling on social:https://facebook.com/goodmindgrapplinghttps://instagram.com/goodmindgrapplingJoin the Lazy Wrestling mailing list:https://lazywrestling.comMental models discussed in this episode:Inside Channel Controlhttps://bjjmentalmodels.com/inside-channel-controlControlling the Distancehttps://bjjmentalmodels.com/controlling-the-distanceCore Mechanicshttps://bjjmentalmodels.com/core-mechanicsGrips Dictate Positionhttps://bjjmentalmodels.com/grips-dictate-positionOpening Salvoshttps://bjjmentalmodels.com/opening-salvosAsymmetric Warfarehttps://bjjmentalmodels.com/asymmetric-warfare⬆️ LEVEL UP with BJJ Mental Models Premium!The world's LARGEST library of Jiu-Jitsu audio lessons, our complete podcast network, online coaching, and much more!

You love Jesus, and you want to love the Bible, but most days, life crowds it out. And when you do open the text, it can feel confusing, disjointed, even offensive; so you reach for personalities who make it feel easier. The problem is that celebrity clarity often replaces biblical clarity. This week on Win Today, Zach Windahl—creator of The Bible Study and founder of The Brand Sunday—joins me to recover the unified story of Scripture and to challenge a popular church slogan: "belong before you believe." Belonging matters, but the New Testament's pattern is belief that forms a people, not a people that replaces belief. We'll name the most common study mistakes, walk a simple observation–interpretation–application path, and give you a way to read when you're bored, confused, or offended—so you meet the Lord in the words he actually inspired. Guest Bio Zach Windahl is the author of The Bible Study. His work has introduced hundreds of thousands to practical, repeatable study rhythms that move from information to transformation. Today isn't about his résumé; it's about putting tools in your hands so you can read what's there and be formed by it. Show Partner SafeSleeve designs a phone case that blocks up to 99% of harmful EMF radiation—so I'm not carrying that kind of exposure next to my body all day. It's sleek, durable, and most importantly, lab-tested by third parties. The results aren't hidden—they're published right on their site. And that matters, because a lot of so-called EMF blockers on the market either don't work or can't prove they do. We protect our hearts and minds—why wouldn't we protect our bodies too?

Hey girl,In this episode, I sit down with the brilliant Jereshia Hawke for a powerful conversation about what it truly means to descale your life. Jereshia, a former engineer turned business coach, opens up about her journey from burnout and self-abandonment to rediscovering her body, pleasure, and peace. We talk about her year-long sabbatical, the childhood patterns that shaped her survival mode, and how somatic work, breathwork, body awareness, stillness, and inner-child healing helped her reconnect with herself more deeply. Ultimately, descaling your life is about coming home to yourself. Jereshia reminds us that peace has a price, boundaries, identity shifts, and sometimes loneliness, but choosing yourself is always worth it.BIO:Jereshia Hawk is a Strategic Advisor and Business Coach, known as the "Millionaire Maker" for her expertise in helping high-earning CEOs scale with intention and precision. She built a 7-figure net worth solely from business profits, creating a life of freedom without sacrificing what matters most. After a planned sabbatical, where she navigated personal challenges and re-engineered her business-she now guides leaders to scale smarter, not harder. Featured in Essence, Forbes, and Business Insider, Jereshia helps CEOs streamline operations, refine their focus, and build businesses that work for them, not the other way around.Whenever You Are ReadyHere are 3 ways I can help you:​Book A Call With Me - I've been getting A LOT of DM and email requests to chat with me and answer specific questions about love, dating, relationships, and men, so I'm opening back up my limited calendar for a few calls.

If you want to be a better leader, you have to understand your behavioral preferences and deficiencies and those of your executive team and senior leadership. And the Harrison Assessment can help you. A couple of months ago, the fellas at The Mental Hygiene Project shepherded me through it. Michael Stahl and Ryan Gallik went through an hour long debrief identifying my core strengths and where I could improve. I enjoyed the process and found the results insightful and illuminating.  In this episode, we discuss leadership development and also break down a program they offer local governments to improve employee mental health. It is called Psychological Empowerment 360.

Ready to earn more without adding more hours to your week? We break down three practical paths pool pros use to scale: hiring your first tech with clean pricing and standards, selling select accounts for lump‑sum cash, and building passive income that compounds over time. You'll hear the exact numbers, the customer conversations that make handoffs smooth, and the realistic headaches to expect so you can plan around them.We start with a readiness check: if your monthly rate can't support wages, payroll taxes, workers' comp, chemicals, and admin while leaving a margin, hiring will backfire. From there, we map a ride‑along training plan, why a company truck reduces risk, and how to prep clients so they're comfortable with a new face on the route. We run conservative math: paying a tech per pool using a 4.3-week multiplier, estimating a $50 net per account at 50 stops, and showing how that can conservatively add ~$30,000 a year. Scale that approach with density and QA, and you understand how larger firms turn process into profit.If you're allergic to payroll, try the route-cycling strategy. Partner with builders, grow to ~90 stops, then sell a 15‑pool package each year—often worth close to 10–12 months of revenue—dropping a sizable check into the business while you reset to a tight 75 and rebuild. It's a simple loop that improves route quality and protects your time. We also look beyond the backyard: small multifamily with DSCR loans, or cash‑heavy businesses like coin laundries, can provide tax advantages and durable cash flows that don't depend on your daily schedule.• Readiness checks for hiring and pricing• Per‑pool pay math using a 4.3 multiplier• Customer prep and selective handoff strategy• Training plans, trucks, insurance, and QA• Conservative profit scenarios and scaling logic• Annual route‑sale model with builders• Real estate and DSCR loans for passive income• Tax advantages, deductions, and CPA guidance• Mindset of stewardship and sustainable growthJoin the pool guy coaching program.

She's a single mom, faith-driven warrior, battle-tested leader, and community rebuilder, and today, Sarah Kouba pulls back the curtain on the real story behind the strength.

In this episode of Head, Heart, and Boots, Brandon and I sit down with Alejandro to unpack what ten years inside one of the toughest jiu jitsu cultures in the country can teach us about leadership, loyalty, and personal growth. We dig into how a broken season in his life led him to a mentor who changed everything, why the Daisy Fresh laundromat became a proving ground for world class competitors, and how the same principles that shape great fighters also shape great teams. Hope you enjoy Chris Why You Should Listen [00:02:36] How one mentor's belief and availability created lifelong loyalty and a culture people wanted to be part of [00:11:03] What living and training in an old laundromat taught fighters about discipline, discomfort, and eliminating excuses [00:21:00] The long, unglamorous process behind becoming a world class grappler and why consistency beats talent over time [00:25:39] How wrestling and jiu jitsu build confidence, emotional control, and character in kids and adults alike [00:36:05] How Alejandro revived a dead high school program by applying the same leadership principles that shaped him on the mat Did you know...

In this episode of Unfck Your Relationships, we're diving into the identity level shifts required to level up so quickly it almost feels wrong. The truth? You're not stuck because of timing, luck, or the men you date. You're stuck because your nervous system is still wired for chaos, crumbs, and chasing and you keep choosing what's familiar over what's actually good for you.I break down the real reasons you keep looping in the same patterns and how to step into the version of you who doesn't tolerate inconsistency, confusion, or emotional breadcrumbs. This is where your “Secure Her” identity gets built not from goals, but from standards, self-respect, and micro-moments of alignment.Here's what I unpack in this episode:Why You're Stuck It's not the universe or bad luck. It's the identity you're operating from and the parts of you (anxious girl, avoidant girl, cool girl, little girl) running the show.Defining Your Next-Level Self Who is “Secure Her”? What does she tolerate? What becomes a hard no? And if the world was watching you 24/7… would you be proud?Meeting the Version of You Who Already Lives There The you with standards, follow-through, nourishment, rest, boundaries, and self-respect. What does she do that you're not doing? What has she stopped tolerating?The Brutal Gap Check Where your life doesn't match your mouth: who you text, who you sleep with, your friendships, your food, your sleep, and how you talk to yourself. Your results = your standards in action.Closing the Gap With Micro-Standards One small high-standard action per day. Don't text him back. Go to bed earlier. Speak up. Walk away from what isn't a match. Let your nervous system learn that it's safe to be the new you.Expecting Backlash + Resistance Old friends will notice. Men who benefitted from your low standards will push back. Your inner child will panic because familiar feels safe. This is GOOD.Reframing the Discomfort “I'm not losing people I'm losing patterns.” “I'm not being dramatic I'm raising my standards.” “It's not scary it's new.”At the core, leveling up this fast isn't about becoming someone new. It's about returning to the version of you who was always there the one with discernment, self-trust, and standards that feel like a full-body yes.WORK WITH MICHELLE:Join THE CONNECTED WOMAN, a course for the woman who wants to go from anxious & self-abandoning in relationships to secure, confident and unf*ckwithable: https://michellepanning.com/the-connected-womanSign up for THE EXPERIENCE, an exclusive 12-month mentorship experience where you go all in on YOU (aka, you get direct access to me as a mentor, access to every offer I run over your year, and MORE): https://michellepanning.com/the-experienceSign up for THE AWAKENING RETREATS now before they sell out.

The Word burning in Justin's heart right now is that God wants us to “level up!” Justin took the opportunity to encourage all of us that we are in a “for such a time as this” moment, and God wants each of us to rise up and live with intentionality, filled with the Holy Ghost and with fire. The most important thing in life is to stay fixed on Jesus and to increase the Presence of God in your life. You can re-orient yourself fully to God's Light by being thankful, by giving, obeying and worshiping extravagantly, and by simply and overtly asking the Holy Spirit to be the driver of your life! We are on God's side in the very real spiritual battle raging in the world, and we must see ourselves like Elijah willing to fight fire with fire! When the fire dims, we must continually make the choice to step back into the fire God! When we do, God will send down fire, as He did when Elijah contested and challenged the enemy. Our part is to joyfully keep our focus on what will last for eternity!

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 0:48  Happy Fuck Yeah Friday. Oh my God, a Friday. That's a holiday. Hopefully you have it off. I'm obsessed with taking holidays off that I don't do a lot of celebration on, and it's not like Brad and I just don't really cook Thanksgiving meal, and I don't even go to a lot of them, or we're invited. But like, there's something about like, the world is celebrating a day, or not the world, because this is Thanksgiving, so people are celebrating a day, and we're just like, putzing around, like, I love it, but that's not my win. This is about celebrating your wins, my wins, and being inspired and having an affirmation and reminding ourselves that like perfect is boring, being until you see it takes time. And my goodness, we're gonna start bragging about the things we do and inspiring others to do the same. So your inspiration for today, everyone's trying to sell you something. And, yeah, me too on OPC, but, but, but, really, what I want you to enjoy and get a kick out of this says the rule is you have to dance a little in the morning before you leave the house, because it changes the way you walk out into the world. And it reminds me of one of the episodes we had where she said you need to pick your be it till you see it song, and then you need to listen to it every day. And she said you have to listen to it. I'm like this inspiration is asking us to dance a little before we leave the house, because it changes the way we walk out into the world. So what song you're gonna play right now and dance to it on the world? I used to play Level Up every morning in my studio before my clients showed up. This was in 2018 and then I had a different song in 2019 but I'm telling you, it changed, it changed how I approached the whole day, because I was like, Oh my God, I am starting new companies, and I am in charge of the vision of where these are going and and also I still have to teach. And I'm I love this so much. I love, love, love this. And if you go to the link to watch it on Instagram, it's this cute little girl who is just, like, dancing. She is just dancing. This other little girl is like, I think I want to dance like she is. She's like, a little shy. The girl who's staring at her was like, that's me. That's me going, can I be her? Like, can I do that? And I'm telling you right now, we need to do it. We need to do it. You need to do it. So go out, well, don't, before you go out, play a song and then go out into the world being it till you see it. I'm obsessed with this one. Lesley Logan 3:16  So, okay, your wins. Ainsley Walker is back, and you know what I love about Ainsley is that reading her wins makes me relive I feel like I'm living the moment, watching in a movie. And you don't have to be so eloquent in the way you write your wins, but I'm just saying like, write your wins like you're like you're sharing it in a journal. You can relive them if you can, if you have the time, right? It really helps you reflect. So, wow, wow, wow. So this is both a win and a massive thank you. I chose this one because we are in a gratitude season, right? LL, Brad and Meredith, I could have put this in the eLevate group, but I would feel so selfish to all of you who perhaps haven't done eLevate yet. So I say it yet because it's a must. I arrived back last night from an incredible few days in Vegas with all the other eLevate retreaters. What was it? What was incredible is that no matter how experienced or new everyone was, they still had lots to learn and share from all in each other. We have moved lots and had so much fun taking time and investment to step out and do this. Felt big, but the outcome was more than I imagined. It reflected back to me with clarity, what I want my future and how to go about things for my own practice, my clients and my business. It's going to be exact an exciting few months, but first I'm going to move my happy jet-lagged body on my beautiful new mini barrel. Thank you all. Oh Ainsley, of course, you are so welcome, but also, thank you, because when you show up for yourself, it allows everyone else to show up for themselves, right? And so yes, thank you for the gratitude you are sending back to us. Of course, we love doing this, but we we can't do it without people like you who show up as authentically as you do, and then and give so generously and receive so much, right? And I'm just so excited because I have seen how the next few minutes went, and I have seen what you're doing, and it's nothing short of, remarkable is the wrong word, short of like, it's more than what you detail to me that you dreamed of, and I'm so stoked because you did it. You've been being it till you see it, since the moment we did Cambodia together, and I, the first time. And eLevate was so beautiful. I'm so glad you're in it. And for those who don't understand what I wonder what eLevate is, it's my mentorship program next year is completely sold out, but 2027 has a couple spots and I do a retreat with them at the house every year, and it's special to me because it's what Jay gave to me, and Jay's teachers gave to me, and I want to pay that forward into my own way and in a way that allows people to show up fully, authentically themselves, right? So thank you, Ainsley, because without you, I couldn't do what I'm wanting to do. Lesley Logan 6:02  All right, so it, it is an FYF, but it's also, you know, a season of gratitude. And I have a lot to be grateful for this year. The world is on fire. I have had more than my fair share of obstacles and frustrations in life and in business. What's fun is I get to sit here and record this early in a state of I'm actually extremely grateful. I'm grateful for the person I was when I envisioned this business so many years ago. I'm grateful for the people who've been part of it. I'm grateful massively for my team. I'm grateful for my dear, amazing friends. I am the point man who I love, people who don't need to talk to me every day. I like best friends who can talk every week or every other week, or maybe not for a month, but we can pick up where we started, like I love I'm so grateful because my friends are that, and they get that, and they understand that, and because this is Be It Till You See It Podcast, I know we say this often in the recaps, but you have to know that I'm so grateful for you, because this podcast has actually changed my perspective of myself and who I want to become and how I want to be it till I see it as I get older, and not in a way like I'm getting older, but like, what beauty can come as I get older and who I want to become, and so without you listening, I wouldn't get to do this. You don't just get to do a podcast just because, you know, you want to people do have to listen. I mean, I could, but then it would just be a fucking expensive, very expensive task, because you listen, because you listen, because you share your wins, because you send your questions in, because you send in your takeaways, it pushes me to become better at this every each and every year, and each interview has challenged me to be it till I see it in an in a better way. And isn't that how it is, like we envision, like what we want, and then the result is even better. Sometimes we don't get we want, but we got something better. And that is how I feel. And so I'm just absolutely so fucking grateful for you. And in case no one's told you that, today, I'm grateful for you. So go out there and Be It Till You See It. Thank you so much. Have an amazing day. Lesley Logan 8:18  That's all I got for this episode of the Be It Till You See It Podcast.

This is a rich and highly engaging monologue! Here are some great options for the title, summary, and description, focusing on the core themes of self-mastery, environment, and energetic boundaries.Dissonance vs. Resonance: Tuning Your Environment and Stepping Up Your IdentityIn this tactical episode of Resonance, host Michael Trainer tackles the concept of Dissonance—the frustrating static and out-of-tune feeling that emerges when your core values and integrity aren't met by your environment or relationships.Drawing on his challenging experience while recording in Ubud, Bali, Michael unpacks how the gap between his grounded, pragmatic approach and the "maybe I'll show up, maybe I won't" culture became a powerful call to action.You will learn:The Power of Environment: Why physically changing your location (or "garden") is often the most direct and pragmatic way to reset your inner tune, especially when entering a new professional or personal phase.The Radical Reckoning: How to use tools like journaling, trusted friends, or even AI to uncover the blind spots and patterns that lead you to attract and tolerate dissonance.The Identity Manifesto: Michael shares his process for defining a new self-identity, including a declaration to stop "energizing" people and behaviors that don't share your high standards for integrity and follow-through.Confronting the Warrior's Task: How to turn dissonance into resonance by deliberately taking on the uncomfortable tasks, hard conversations, and long-avoided items that are draining your life force.Childhood Wounding as Signal: Recognizing that patterns of frustration (like constantly being flaked on) often connect back to unresolved childhood experiences, and how to use this awareness to heal and show up differently.This episode is a powerful message about holding yourself and your relationships to a higher standard, recognizing static, and intentionally cultivating the energy where your most beautiful music can play. Michael Trainer has spent 30 years learning from Nobel laureates, neuroscientists, and wisdom keepers worldwide. He's the author of RESONANCE: The Art and Science of Human Connection (March 31, 2026), co-creator of Global Citizen and the Global Citizen Festival, and host of the RESONANCE podcast.Featured in Forbes, Inc, Good Morning America.
