Show Notes: Alison Wakoff Loren went to St Louis to medical school at Washington University. She specialized in internal medicine and later completed a subspecialty fellowship in hematology oncology at the University of Pennsylvania. She met her husband in medical school and they have three children all in their early twenties. Alison  is now the chief of the Division of Hematology Oncology at the University of Pennsylvania, specializing in bone marrow transplantation, a curative therapy for blood cancer. Taking Care of Patients Alison finds the best part of her job to be taking care of patients, especially those who have just been diagnosed with leukemia. She gets to know people when they are in a vulnerable place and understand their lives, which is a privilege. She also does a lot of administrative work, mentoring trainees and faculty, helping them understand their passions and connecting them with opportunities. Alison is proud of her mentoring success stories. She encourages everyone to show gratitude and warmth, as the world is not always generous, and it is important to show that we can make a difference for each other by showing warmth and gratitude. She also shares a story of mentoring a talented MD and PhD candidate who was unhappy in her research role.  Helping Patients with Leukemia Alison discusses the fear and uncertainty people face when discovering they have leukemia. She shares her experiences in delivering sad news to a patient who had been a high school history teacher and had leukemia come back. She mentions that people have incredibly generous spirits and sometimes don't behave their best when they're scared. She also shares examples of people making decisions that matter to their loved ones, such as stopping treatment or continuing treatment when they don't want to. Alison also discusses the range of responses people have when they have to deliver sad news. She explains that most people know they're in for an uphill climb, and it's rare to be surprised. Alison specializes in bone marrow transplants, which are intensive but curative intent therapies, and she emphasizes the importance of laying groundwork ahead of time to make difficult conversations less shocking and offering hope while grounding the conversation. She also stresses the importance of being honest and respectful in her interactions with patients. Fertility Preservation in  Cancer Treatment The conversation turns to Alison's research and the importance of fertility preservation in cancer treatment, which can harm reproductive capacity and lead to infertility. Oncology teams often don't discuss this topic, partly because they are focused on cancer and not reproductive endocrinologists. However, there is a focus on making sure all patients are counseled about the reproductive impact of their treatments and reproductive options to engage in fertility preservation before starting cancer treatments. Alison explains what is recommended for women. She mentions that it is important to discuss these options before starting cancer treatment, as it reduces distress and decision regret for people after treatment. Alison is fortunate to be able to speak and advocate for fertility preservation for people with blood cancers, which represents a special population in oncology care. She has been fortunate to co-chair an effort to develop guidelines for fertility preservation from a large cancer organization. She explains that  colleagues in reproductive science are doing amazing research to extend options for reproductive care before and after cancer treatment, which is exciting to inform oncology clinicians and advocate for insurance coverage for these treatments. Family Life, Running, and Circadian Rhythms Alison shares her experiences with her children, including a daughter who works at the Amherst College Library, an older son considering medical school, and a younger son at Bates College in Maine. Her daughter has inspired her to think about women in the workplace, as she was criticized for not valuing women in her division and for hiring women because they are cheaper. Alison also shares her experience with running, which she enjoys but has to get up early to get in before work. She talks about the concept of morning and night people, stating that people have their own internal clocks. She also mentions that research into the biology of the circadian clock is still in its early stages.  Influential Harvard Courses and Professors Alison shares her experiences at Harvard, including taking courses with Stephen Jay Gould and Dick Lewontin, who were incredibly intelligent and insightful. She also took Act 10 as a senior, which was an unexpected experience that helped her learn different ways of thinking about the subject. Alison  volunteered at the Mission Hill after-school program, which allowed her to get to know the kids and families there. She tried out for various extracurriculars, such as singing and photography, but found it intimidating. She also mentions the training program for photographers.

So we work with family and vulnerable populations. We work with the elderly, and we work with things like helping promote social work in China, as well as clinical psychologists in different NGOs around the region. The other nonprofit that I am on the Advisory Council of is the Asian American foundation, TAF for short, T, A, A, F, F. The Asian American foundation, basically, is a platform that gets together different organizations around anti hate, changing the narrative education, helping to advocate for Asian American history taught in public schools, as well as narrative change representation in Hollywood and beyond. And again, it was founded around the 2020, around the growing disturbing rhetoric against Asians with the rise of COVID So yeah, those are two nonprofit organizations that I'm involved with. So again, one nonprofit that's been on the board for for many, many years is called the Keswick Foundation, and it funds pilot programs in Hong Kong as well as Mainland China. And then the Asian American foundation.

This week on “Talk About Las Vegas With Ira,” Ira sits down with Steve Connolly, the powerhouse behind “Spirit of the King,” the ultimate Elvis tribute show at Notoriety Live every Wednesday, Thursday, and Sunday at 7 p.m. In this engaging conversation, Steve shares his eclectic journey—from playing bass guitar in high school and attending art school to restoring 700 statues and 123 churches. Initially set on becoming a curator, his path took an unexpected turn when a professor encouraged him to embrace both art and music. Steve talks about sneaking into bars with a fake I.D. at just 15 to play music, learning guitar, taking voice lessons, and how an open mic night changed his life forever—setting him on the road to embodying Elvis. He recalls the thrill of stepping in front of an audience, shedding inhibitions, and truly thriving in the spotlight. He recounts how “Legends in Concert” producer John Stuart and Will Collins helped bring him to Vegas, cementing his place as a dedicated student of Elvis. And how a critical letter pushed him to dive deeper into researching the King of Rock ‘n' Roll, refining his performance to a new level of authenticity. The key moment for Steve: before a particularly challenging performance (in front of a goth crowd), he asked for the spirit of Elvis to enter him—a ritual that has since become a pre-show prayer. Beyond the stage, Steve talks about his deeply personal commitment to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society and how his family tragedy formed that commitment. Tune in for an episode filled with passion, music, and the magic of Vegas entertainment! (Also Watch Full Podcast Video)

This includes molecular testing and colonoscopies, which offer the opportunity to remove precancerous polyps, preventing them from developing into something more serious.The battle against cancer requires collaborative efforts between healthcare providers, academic institutions, industry partners, and advocacy organizations. This is not just one organization's fight; collaborative efforts must continue.Resources:Follow Dr. Karin Tollefson, Chief Oncology Medical Officer at Pfizer, on LinkedIn.Discover more about Pfizer on their LinkedIn and website.Read more on Pfizer in Oncology here. Patient Resources/Advocacy Links:Explore This Is Living With Cancer's Advocacy Support's website.Visit the Global Colorectal Cancer Alliance's website here.

If you're new to this podcast, I'm so glad you're here. One of the things I've shared in prior episodes is that I have been managing a bone marrow cancer diagnosis since 2002—that's 23 years and counting. It's been a journey filled with highs and lows, but right now, I'm in a good phase where my blood levels are stable. Even so, I still check in with my doctors regularly, staying in a watch-and-wait phase to monitor my health. During a recent doctor's visit, a new physician assistant looked over my medical history and, with curiosity, remarked, “You're quite interesting.” That moment sparked today's conversation about what it means to be different, to not fit the mold, and to embrace that uniqueness as a strength. In this episode, I share why I've taken a different approach to my health and how it's worked for me, along with the importance of celebrating what makes you unique rather than seeing it as a setback. I talk about how we can find connection and community even when our experiences don't perfectly align, as I've discovered through my involvement with the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.  I also explore how breaking patterns can lead to new discoveries and perspectives, and why innovation often comes from those who challenge the norm. Most importantly, I reflect on the power of self-trust and the freedom that comes with honoring your own path instead of following what's expected. Whether it's in health, career, or personal growth, we all have moments where we deviate from the standard—but can we embrace it? Can we see it as an opportunity rather than an obstacle? Today's wise walk invites you to reflect on where you've stepped outside the norm, how it's shaped your journey, and where you might want to break the mold next. Where in your life do people say, "Oh, you are quite interesting!" When they say it, what is your emotional or energetic reaction? Do you feel taken aback because they are differentiating you from the norm? Are you able to embrace your uniqueness and the qualities that make you stand out? Can you celebrate your uniqueness as a superpower? How do you want to respond energetically and emotionally when people recognize how interesting you are? When you reflect on a time in your life when you deviated from the norm, what has worked for you? Have you noticed any advantages in doing things differently? Do you manage a team in a way that sets you apart from others? Are you highly skilled in an area but approach it differently than those before you? What in your life do you want to deviate from?   Where do you want to set a new standard or raise the bar? Is there something you've always done a certain way but feel there's a better approach?   What do you have to lose by trying something new?   Are you willing to believe in yourself and honor your uniqueness?   Can you embrace being an anomaly and confidently step outside the norm? Where are you deviating from the norm?   Where can you find a community that supports you?   How can you connect with others through shared understanding and appreciation?   What opens up for you when you embrace your uniqueness?   How does recognizing your individuality change your perspective on yourself? Thank you so much for going on this Wise Walk with me today and for sharing my story. Oh, and my results are strong! I'm staying consistent, and while I still have to check in with my doctor every six months, everything is looking good.    So we're going to celebrate that too. Thank you, thank you for being a part of this Strider's community!   In this episode: [04:58] At first, I was a little bit taken aback because this was the first time I was meeting that doctor. Then I agreed that I am interesting because I don't fit the norm. [06:08] I want to celebrate my uniqueness. [07:35] Can we honor deviations when we feel called? [08:34] My nephew has started playing golf. He uses a traditional grip, but a famous golfer decided to deviate from the norm and now he's revered for his grip. [10:03] It only takes one person to show something new to inspire the rest of us. [11:31] There is excitement about having commonality with people. [12:03] Not fitting the norm or being an outlier can make us feel alone. [13:07] There will always be pros and cons to being unique. [15:35] Sometimes groundbreaking discoveries result from our unique deviation. [16:32] I want to encourage you to deviate from the standard if you feel called to.   Memorable Quotes: “Celebrating your uniqueness is not just about accepting who you are, but recognizing that what makes you different is also what makes you powerful.” - Mary Tess “Not being the norm can be a really great thing, because when you step outside of expectations, you create space for new possibilities and discoveries that wouldn't exist otherwise.” - Mary Tess “Honoring the choices that feel right for you, even when they don't align with conventional wisdom, is an act of self-trust and self-care.” - Mary Tess   Links and Resources: Mary Tess Rooney Email Facebook | LinkedIn | Twitter | Instagram Heart Value

(Singers Taking Action Reaching Souls). Her journey has taken her across the globe, captivating audiences with her extraordinary talents.   Natalie's passion for music was evident from a young age. Remarkably, she could sing before she could articulate coherent sentences.By the tender age of thirteen, she had already assumed the role of choral director and conductor, a role she initially embraced at her childhood church. Her professional journey commenced at age 17 when she graced the stage as a soloist at the iconic Carnegie Hall. It reached a pinnacle years later as she performed in the enchanting setting of the French Riviera for the late Prince Rainier of Monaco.   As a singer and actress, Natalie has left an indelible mark in the world of entertainment.

On this episode of the Scouting For Growth podcast, Sabine VdL talks to Jeff Abbott, CEO of Ivanti who, alongside his global team, brings insights shape the future of work. As the leader of a company dedicated to providing innovative IT and security solutions, Jeff brings a wealth of experience and insight to the discussion of the evolving workplace landscape.  Today, Jeff will be sharing key findings from Ivanti's 2024 Everywhere Work Report – a comprehensive study that explores the latest trends, challenges, and opportunities in the distributed work environment. KEY TAKEAWAYS If you think about where some of the most successful platforms are, Salesforce.com has brought an amazing platform to sales and marketing, Workday is an amazing platform for HR. CIO's and CISOs have not had that. Our quest at Avanti is to bring that platform, and in this transition we're in right now, the global business community at large, I believe it's the most important evolution in contemporary business we've seen in the last 25 years. It's going to be the basis for our economic wellbeing for the next 50 years, if we get this right. It makes sense for leadership teams to take active steps to dig a little deeper into this divide. With remote work becoming more prevalent, surveying your employees, I believe, is more and more important, this idea of remote leadership and keeping up with the ‘vibe' of the company in this remote world to understand the experiences and challenges of employees and the executive suite with different mode of work. Over 90% of leaders we surveyed say that employees have the tools to be productive in a remote or hybrid work environment. But, of those employees, just 57% say they need better tools and better access and don't have the smoothest experience from a digital culture perspective.  What we're observing is that IT teams aren't fully bought into the value of DEX (digital experience platform). IT teams are less likely than leadership to say improving the digital employee experience positively affects productivity, retention and satisfaction. Additionally, those IT professionals don't always get to experience the benefits of the digital employee experience that they actually help power. As a result, they don't buy into it simply because they haven't had a positive experience themselves. Applying the promise of DEX should really start with IT, because they're the ones enabling it. BEST MOMENTS ‘The biggest challenge is engaging in the Everwork policy and technical adjustments in the safest and most secure way. You can't rush this. You got to get it right. Just can't wing it.' ‘Threats from bad actors or cyber terrorists is as bad as it's ever been. It's getting worse. These days, it's a persistent threat, they don't just come and knock on the door with phishing, it's a campaign, it's nonstop. Vigilance is so important.' ‘Both the CIO and the CISO have to lock arms and enable IT to understand how they can truly impact productivity with the DEX platform by having transparency and visibility across the landscape of the company.' ‘Ultimately, where we're headed is no longer operating IT over here, security over here, we see these organisations starting to converge. That's why this platform is so important for the future.' ABOUT THE GUEST As CEO of Ivanti, Jeff oversees all aspects of the company's growth strategy and direction. Before becoming CEO of Ivanti in October 2021, Jeff was Ivanti's President since January 2020. Jeff has over 25 years of experience working for enterprise software and services companies, including Accenture, Oracle, and Infor. Jeff holds degrees from the University of Tennessee and Georgia State University. He sits on the National Alumni Board at the University of Tennessee and has previously held board positions with the Georgia Leukemia and Lymphoma Society and the Posse' Foundation.

Effective communication between patients and healthcare providers is crucial to facilitate shared decision-making and meaningful dialogue that supports improved patient outcomes in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) care. In this episode, CANCER BUZZ speaks with Jean Louise Koff, MD, MSc, associate professor in the Department of Hematology and Medical Oncology at Emory University School of Medicine in Atlanta, Georgia, about fostering trust, rapport, and collaboration in the patient-provider relationship. “I think empathy is a key part of establishing a relationship between a provider and a patient. [It] helps the patient feel safe when they're dealing with what can be a very stressful and frightening situation...A phrase that I like to use: ‘Our care team is going to take care of you. We are here for you during this diagnosis, and we're going to take care of you as you move through your care plan.'” — Jean Louise Koff, MD, MSc   Jean Louise Koff, MD, MSc Associate Professor Department of Hematology and Oncology Winship Cancer Institute Emory University School of Medicine Atlanta, GA   This video podcast was produced in partnership with the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society and made possible by support from Abbvie, Genmab, and Genentech.

Today's interview is with Brian Reynolds, one of the world's fastest double amputee runners. When Brian was four years-old he contracted a rare form of bacterial meningitis, which led to him having both of his legs amputated below the knee. Despite this, Brian was fairly active as a child-- and did his best to participate in most common childhood sports like baseball, basketball and even hockey.  (He grew up in Boston after all.) When Brian was in college, he got into power lifting... which led to him to join the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society's Team in Training to hike across the Grand Canyon... and then finally to running. Brian is now one of the fastest double amputee runners in the world, having set records in distances from the 5K to the marathon.  Brian happens to live about a mile from me, so we see each other on our morning runs quite often. I'd love to run with him more, but I don't think I can keep up! Last month, the Fleet Feet in our town hosted a trail running film festival featuring several short documentaries about trail running and ultramarathons.  One of the films was about Brian's attempt, last year, to complete the Leadville 100, one of the toughest ultramarathons in the world. In a few weeks, Brian will be heading back to Leadville for another attempt.  And as we publish this episode, Brian is currently climbing Mount Kilimanjaro.  Brian is also sponsored by our partners at Brooks Running, so we definitely want to give a big thanks to them as well.  For over a century, Brooks has been propelled by a never-ending curiosity with how humans move. It drives their every decision and every innovation. Because they believe movement is the key to feeling more alive. And we're all moving towards something. It could be the top of a mountain, a first-ever 5K, or peace of mind after a stressful day.  It could be a cure for Parkinson's, a cleaner planet, fair play. So… let's run there. With gear and experiences specifically designed to take you to that place. Whether it's a headspace, a feeling, or a finish line. Let's run there. Head to BrooksRunning.com to learn more.

Why are we doing things because other people are telling us that that's what we should be doing? Right? We are able to make conscious decisions and we can change these paths if we want to, for ourselves, if we make a decision about it. Lesley Logan 0:25  Welcome to the Be It Till You See It podcast where we talk about taking messy action, knowing that perfect is boring. I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started.  Lesley Logan 1:07  Welcome back to the Be It Till You See It interview recap where my co-host in life, Brad, and I are going to dig into the intentional convo I had with Rodman Schley in our last episode. If you haven't yet listened to that interview, go back and listen to that interview and then come back and listen to this interview or listen to this one and listen to that one or binge out on the entire week at one time. Who does that? I want to know. Today is June 13th 2024. And it's Random Acts of Light Day. About this day, as part of the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society's ‘Light The Night Walks' fundraising campaign, Random Acts of Light Day is celebrated every year on June 13th. This day encourages us to do a random act of kindness to bring light into the life of someone suffering from cancer. People observe the day by volunteering at hospitals, reading up on treatments and cures for blood cancer patients, or joining the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society's 'Light The Night Walks' to raise funds and increase awareness about leukemia and lymphoma. Random Acts of Light Day aims to make the world a kinder place for cancer patients and their families. So really, if you don't want to do any of this logistical stuff, you could just do something randomly nice for someone with cancer in your life. I'm sure you know someone, we just had a friend, listener and member of our group whose husband passed away from cancer recently, and he'd been fighting for many years. And then Heather Ingram, who is one of our eLevate grads, Agency members, she actually taught a mat class for people after breast cancer, which I'm so excited that is now on the OPC site. Yeah, so getting people who have gone through it something for them, so. Brad Crowell 2:38  Well, I just wanted to say something about all this, I can't remember the name of the guest that we had, who gave this advice as an action item, but as a Be It Action Item. But it has stayed with me since the interview. And it was when somebody is in need, you don't want to just say, "Hey, let me know if I can help you," or "Let me know how I can help." Because 99% of the time, they're not going to actually know what they need at the moment. And instead, if you know someone who needs help or suffering or some kind of thing like this, you can actually volunteer something specific that you know, you can do really well. And do it well for them. Right? So instead of it being like this open-ended let me know when, you know, if you need anything, you know, you could say, "Hey, let me know when I can come over and wash your car." Something specific, you know, something that's like tangible, and like, oh my god, that would be fucking awesome. I would really, really appreciate that. So I just want to throw that back out there because it's really impacted me in how I respond to people who actually are going through something and I wanted to remind all of you as well. Lesley Logan 3:50  Yeah. We had two guests within the same summer on grief. Brad Crowell 3:57  I do think it was the grief one, you're right. Lesley Logan 3:58  And I can't decide if it was the wife does the books that had the book about 100 acts of kindness. Or if it was the coach on griefBrad Crowell 4:09  Bree Gordon or Kim Hamer. Lesley Logan 4:11  Yeah. Both are great guys. Both worth listening to. Bree has a quiz that will tell you which episodes to listen to based on like where you are in your grief. Anyways, there was a coach about a month before Kim Hamer. But Kim Hamer, I think was one who was like, very specific. Brad Crowell 4:28  She's a consultant in grief management. Lesley Logan 4:29  Yes, yes. For corporations. Yeah. So she wrote the book on the 100 Acts of Kindness and 100 Acts of Love something like that. And it was like different things you can do to be like for ideas on what to suggest and what to do for you can do for people it's really cool. She had the neighbor who like detailed her car and put oil in it, gassed it up, things like that. So yeah, today go do something active and random and nice for someone in need. There you go. This is your, this is your reminder. Coming up, we have Cambodia Retreat February 2025. October as you know, if you've been listening for a while is sold, sold out, so sold out.

There are really, there's usually a math class. There's a lot of fun things going on. So definitely do that. And then my mentorship program is, the applications are opening soon. It is possible we'll have opened them up, I don't think so at this point. I think it'll be opening towards the end of June and early July. We're rolling, we only can take 12 people in a group. We, around four is wrapping up, actually, this weekend when this episode comes out will be their fourth weekend. That's crazy. So crazy. I'm so excited for them. They're just amazing women. I love them so much. And then as you go to lesleylogan.co/elevate to get on the waitlist because there's a waitlist. Get the application invite. If you're not on the waitlist, you don't. It's probably why you don't, if you're like, I follow you on Instagram, I never knew. I don't know how about what there's a lot of other things going on. And we only can take 12 people, so there you go. Barrels flashcards, Brad is insisting that you get an opportunity.Brad Crowell 6:39  This is your last chance to get on the waitlist, 100% the last chance. The presale is gonna open up in just a couple of days. Lesley Logan 6:46  Yeah, this is the last chance. It's the last time we're talking about it. You don't hear about it again until they're printing.Brad Crowell 6:50  Yeah, or not until a year from now when we're doing the next step.Lesley Logan 6:54  Yeah, so at any rate, you'll want to get on the waitlist for that. Brad Crowell 6:57  opc.me/flashcardwaitlist, opc.me/flashcardwaitlist Lesley Logan 7:03  And finally, many of you have been like, oh, how do I actually sign up for OPC I really want to actually have consistency in my practice. I want to be someone who takes care of myself all the time. I want to be someone who is priority number one in my life. And if you are an OPC member, you learn how to do that because you have tons of people around you reminding you to do that. So opc.me/40 four zero, opc.me/40 gets you 40 days for $40. So that's $1 a day of Pilates. Brad Crowell 7:32  $1 a day. Lesley Logan 7:33  Come on now. Come on now. Some places charge $400 a month, we're, you know, so here you go. Here's your opportunity to get the Pilates you can afford. It's very accessible, really awesome teachers, really awesome community. It's an awesome vibes all the way. Before we get into Rodman, we have an audience question.Brad Crowell 7:50  We sure did. This is from YouTube, stella633 asked, "Hey, I love your channel and all the knowledge you share. I'm trying to buy a spine corrector. But there are so many different spine correctors on the Balanced Body website. Could you do a video comparing the pros and cons of the different spine correctors? Oh, and can you advise what East Coast West Coast barrels mean?Lesley Logan 8:10  I know. So we'll do Brad Crowell 8:13  That's a great question, stella. Lesley Logan 8:14  We'll do a YouTube video on this so you can have pictures I feel like we almost need to do a long-form team versus a live on this because I don't have the other barrels. So I would want our team to put pictures of the other barrels on there. But let me just like answer what I can East Coast versus West Coast. So there's this world of Pilates that was like was we called East Coast and West Coast East Coast being classical, West Coast bidding contemporary. Brad Crowell 8:37  Really? Lesley Logan 8:37  Yes. Brad Crowell 8:38  I didn't know about that.Lesley Logan 8:39  Yeah. Yeah. So whenever you see East Coast or Clara, it means classical. And everything else is gonna be a contemporary and I can't tell you why there's different sizes in contemporary I don't know that world very much, but what you'd want to get is a Contrology one. Contrology Spine Corrector is a spine corrector to get and you'll find that on Balance Body's Contrology website so it won't, probably won't even be under all the barrels that Balanced Body is showing because it'll be on the Contrology website. It is amazing. It is the closest to Joseph Pilates' spine corrector that there is and if you were listening to last week's episode, I talked about how important the spine corrector is because it really does help you teach you the back bend that you need. Brad has been using the ladder barrel.Brad Crowell 9:22   I sure have.Lesley Logan 9:22  Like, guess what? That hump on the ladder barrel is the exact same as the spine corrector. Brad Crowell 9:27  Nice. Okay. Lesley Logan 9:27  Yeah. So that you can actually work and practice your back bends and build extension into your thoracic spine. Brad Crowell 9:33  You know what I've actually been doing? Lesley Logan 9:34  He's been hanging on it. Brad Crowell 9:36  No, yeah, well, I've just been laying over it and holding on and like, it's, you know, if you've ever done yoga, y'all, and you ever get a backbend headache, there's like this weird pressure that builds and like, it like, the blood flow is like really messing with your brain. And I literally just hold on until I'm through the chaos which takes it could take like the other day I did it and literally I got weak trying to hold because it was such intense pressure. But like, I feel like I'm supposed to be able to do that. And I shouldn't have to have that insane pressure the whole every time. So I'm going to keep doing it every day. Until that happens less.Lesley Logan 10:18  Yeah, I think that's fine.Brad Crowell 10:20  That's what I'm doing. Lesley Logan 10:22  Yeah, so (inaudible) so the long, the long and short of it without the visuals is the Contrology is the one you want buy, just saying. And our Barrels Flashcard Deck is actually going to give you all the exercises you can do on it, and you'll see me and my hot pink one. If you want a discount link, you can use our special link to Contrology Spine Corrector. And the difference between East Coast and West Coast is just the schools of thought. Don't you love how nerdy it is as if anyone who's not trained could even attempt to buy their own thing. And then people who are trained are like, what's East Coast or West Coast? Yep. Welcome to another inner circle.Brad Crowell 11:04  Definitely, we're so inclusive here. Well, hey, great question, stella. Thank you for asking that. Thanks for posting that. If you would like to ask us a question. Stick around to the end of this episode, we actually are gonna mention our phone number. You can just text us and ask that question or we are on Instagram you can send us a DM or obviously we're also on YouTube. So the show is itself is on YouTube. You can ask any questions there as well. Stick around. All right, now let's talk about Rodman Schley. Rodman Schley is a dynamic entrepreneur dedicated to helping individuals break free from unfulfilling work and discover their true purpose. He's passionate about guiding others towards building a life by their own design. As the author of The Outlier Mindset, which comes out on June 4, Rodman shares his insights on achieving a fulfilling and successful life through purpose-driven living.Lesley Logan 11:54  Oh his, his book comes out.Brad Crowell 11:56  Yeah June 4.Lesley Logan 11:57  That's so cool. So it's out. Brad Crowell 11:59  Oh, it's out. Lesley Logan 12:00  Yeah. Brad Crowell 12:00  It's already out by the time you're hearing this.Lesley Logan 12:01  Oh, that's amazing. Go Rodman. Brad Crowell 12:03  Yeah, that just dropped on June 4. Lesley Logan 12:04  That's so funny. His Instagram handle's Go Rodman and I just said go Rodman. I now understand why he does that.Brad Crowell 12:12  Well, listen, I think this is like a humble bio here that we have of Rodman.Lesley Logan 12:15  That we should like (inaudible) it up. Brad Crowell 12:17  Yeah. So Rodman actually has, at one point, owned, like, I don't know, a dozen companies at exactly the same time, which is chaos and insane. And I can't even imagine that. He owned everything from like a chain of pizza stores, to like tons of real estate opportunities. And he actually was the host and star of a television show for multiple years running, and it involved his whole family and what they were doing, which I thought was so cool, was they were talking about living sustainably. Right. So it was a show about being conscious about building a home in a way that is sustainable and beneficial. And I just thought that was so cool. So they actually rebuilt their house. It was, they got an old house, and they rebuilt it from the inside out on the show live over multiple seasons. And you can still go watch that show. now. I think he just got an offer from Netflix or something to like, re-air it. I can't remember if it's Netflix or (inaudible) yeah, it's just fucking insane. It's so cool. Anyway, you'll never know. He's just like the chillest guy, so. Lesley Logan 13:24  Yeah. So, one of the things that we talked about is he believes that the tragedy that only 5% of people are actually living a life based on their purpose. Just 5%. And he's, only 10% know what it is. And soBrad Crowell 13:37  Meaning they don't, they know their purpose. Lesley Logan 13:39  Yeah, they know their purpose.Brad Crowell 13:40  Ninety percent of people don't know their purpose. Lesley Logan 13:41  Yeah, he's trying to help people figure out their purpose, because he's trying to solve regret, like people get to the end of their life, or they get halfway through their life. And they're like, they have regrets because they've spent most of their life not in their purpose. And so he's trying to solve for that, which I think is really generous and kind and hard to do, because so many people postpone things till tomorrow, because they have other pressing things today. And so he says, time flies by us, we get caught up in this garbage that's not really relevant to who we are, or in the life that we want to be living. And he actually was like, just stop focusing on the profit and start focusing on the purpose. And this is something that we try to focus on our businesses, it gets really easy to focus on, like, are we making enough money, we're making the money we want to make and when we actually remember to focus on impact, the impact you want to have, that helps us stay in alignment with our purpose because then the money will follow right? Brad Crowell 13:41  The money will flow. Lesley Logan 13:41  And he said, you want to be able to say I have no regrets. I have everything that I wanted to do, failed but learned and pivoted. And I think that that's also like, I love that he brought up failure because like sometimes it's easy to think if I'm in my purpose, then I must be perfect. And everything is gonna be right and it's like actually going to live in your purpose and there's going to be a lot of lessons along the way in your purpose. And that's really cool too. So I just, I enjoyed him so much. I'm so glad he's got a book coming out because he, his podcast, you guys, is so great. He's got like, he's like, get your mind right, get your mind right. Brad Crowell 15:12  Yeah, mind body money. And there's one, there's a fourth pillar I can't remember. Well, I'll tell you why I thought it was really cool when he was talking about feeling overwhelmed. Because it was a, it was kind of a unique perspective on being overwhelmed. I mean, we've all been there, we all understand what it is to be like, oh, my god, I have so much, I don't even know where to start. It's debilitating, right, you just do nothing. For me, what I used to do, when I got overwhelmed, was stop and just play video games and just do nothing literally sit around and pretend that it's all going to be okay. He said, the thing about overwhelm, that I thought was a unique perspective is obligation. And effectively, it's a whole lot of obligations all pulled into one, they're all piling on top of each other, and they're getting in their own way. And it's the worst feeling. And he said, it's just struggle, because effectively you're doing things that you feel obliged to do, committed to do. It's a thing, you just have to do it, right? And ultimately, to live a life of freedom. He wants to help you shift that so that you're doing things because you want to, not because you're stuck doing with them, or you're over-committed a thousand times over and you're doing the PTA meeting and the art committee and going out and helping out do the soccer field and line in the soccer field and all this stuff, which sure there's a there's a bigger purpose for it all. But ultimately, it leaves you last on the list. Right? And you never you never actually have time to take care of yourself. It's just frustrating. Right? So he said, he said the hard part is we have this idea of what we are, quote-unquote, supposed to be doing because that's what society tells us to do. And he said, there comes a point in your life where you need to just pull the brake on that train. Because we're adults, we're adults. Why are we doing things because other people are telling us that that's what we should be doing? Right? We are able to make conscious decisions, and we can change these paths if we want to for ourselves, if we make a decision about it. Right? And I know it's harder. It's, it's easier said than done. But I just thought it was refreshing to hear that, be reminded of that. Right. You know, maybe I'm still doing something today because, you know, it's what my parents expected of me when I was a teenager. But now I'm still doing it today. Why? You know, do I agree with it? Is it actually causing conflict in my life? Is it creating an obligation that I'm now you know, adhering to? Or it's one more thing I have to do. Maybe, maybe it's time for a change. Lesley Logan 18:00  Yeah. Yeah. I love that. I think that's good. I think it's good to evaluate, you know, it's too easy for us just like, keep going with it. And, you know, we have a coach who says makes you a shithead. Brad Crowell 18:12  It makes you a shithead. I love it. All right. When we come back, we're going to cover those Be It Action Items from Rodman. Stick around. Brad Crowell 18:22  Okay, so finally, let's talk about those Be It Action Items. What bold, executable, intrinsic, or targeted action items, can we take away from your convo with Rodman Schley? He said, if you want to change, the first thing to do is start with a purpose. Whether you get a guide to do it on your own, or do it on your own, you should establish what is important to you sit down and do that work, right, sit down and identify what is important to you. I think that's, well, that's the place to get started. Right? We may have never actually clarified what is important to us. And so we think we know, but we've never actually conceptualized it in a tangible thought about this is important to me. And so therefore, this is helping me, this is helping me find purpose. Lesley Logan 19:13  But also, you might have clarified it with yourself, but not with the people around you. And then you get resentful, like, why aren't they helping me do the thing that I'm here on this planet to do? And anytime we assume that people understand why, what our purpose is or why we're doing things, it makes it difficult. And it's like, you know, so I even have to remember to like clarify, here's why I want to do this thing. Here's why it's so important that it happens right at this moment, and here's why I'm doing it. Here's what it's gonna do for me, or here's what it's gonna do for us or here's what it's gonna do for others. And when you do, that people go, oh, okay, I see why this has urgency around it, you know, because sometimes we don't and we go, why is this person bothering me? Why is my family wanting me to make dinner? I've got this big project coming up. But if you've never said, here's why this big project is so important to me. I've been wanting to do this at work for a really long time I finally have this opportunity to present it in front of people. And it would, it's, it's really truly like the thing that I've been wanting to do for so, so long. So what I need from you is to not expect me to make dinner this week because I'm working on this thing. Because this is part of my purpose. It's part of my plan. And, and here's why I'm doing it. Brad Crowell 20:20  Yeah, I mean, or even, you know.Lesley Logan 20:22  Spell it out. Brad Crowell 20:22  It could also be use that same logic for your self care, right? Because people would look at you and be like, Why are you getting your nails done? Right? And you're like, this is important to me? Because it makes me feel better. Or maybe it's working out your Pilates routine, or getting your hair cut, or whatever it might be. But what I thought was really cool is Rodman had this idea of the sacred checklists, the checkboxes, sorry, he has four, after sitting down and running this exercise himself, and really trying to figure out, he considered things like, what are my strengths? What are my weaknesses? What do I love? What do I hate? Then take those things and put them in order into what is the most important to you and he came up with four things. One was travel, two was actually can't remember what his four were off the top my head right now. But he said it allowed him to then make decisions based on are they meeting these four checkboxes? If I'm gonna go do this thing does it fit into what is what, what I have now decided is my purpose and allowed decision-making to happen that way? Because for him, especially for him, he was overcommitted. He was overwhelmed, right, obliged to run, he was doing 12 or 13 companies at the same time. He wasn't doing them for any other reason then, he could, right, and they make money. So sure, I guess I should do these things. Right? And he said, when he sat down, figured out what his purpose was, then started making decisions based on if I do this project, is it going to meet these four, the four checkboxes that are helping me decide my purpose, you know, or to find my purpose? Does it fit? Is it a match? Is it aligned? Lesley Logan 22:05  Yeah, I like that. Because we, we filter things for our values. And this is sort of, very similar, but also like, you know, we've, we've heard, we recently did something and we're like, okay, in the future, we won't say yes to these things unless they meet this criteria, because we show up exactly as ourselves, we do not downplay ourselves, we do not go half ass on anything. No. And so if we are going to bring our whole asses to things, then they need to be these requirements. Otherwise, we don't bring our whole ass and we say thank you, here's how else we can participate. And that's it. You know, so, super, and you don't always know these things until you go through them. And you're like, what the fuck? How did I say yes here? So then you just, don't, don't get mad at yourself. Just go, okay, new rule, new bucket. Brad Crowell 22:58  Yeah, yeah. What about you? Lesley Logan 23:00  So he said, go get your mindset and your body right. If you're gonna go on a journey to start changing your life, and you don't have your mindset right, you're going to fail because you're not sitting there with the right perspective on the way.Brad Crowell 23:13  The way you're going into things.Lesley Logan 23:14  The way you're going into things. Brad Crowell 23:15  Yeah. Lesley Logan 23:15  And if you're not physically feeling good, how are you going to be at your best when you are trying to do the things in life that you really want to be doing? And I love this. So this is the Be It Till You See It. If the version of you that you are trying to win purpose, walks every morning, how can you walk in the morning? You don't have to wait till you get there to start walking. You can start walking, if you're like Les, I'm so busy, I don't have any time. You can walk outside your front door and walk back in like you can do it, right? So I want you to really think about that. And I think it's so, so important. So many people just push their bodies to doing things and then they get to where they want to go and their body can't keep up and they will, why is this happening to me now? I finally got what I wanted? Because you didn't take care of yourself on the way there. Just didn't do it.
