The Trump regime has launched a radical overhaul of the U.S. State Department's global human rights report, creating a new political weapon that threatens diplomatic ties and redefines universal human rights principles. This video breaks down the shocking new criteria U.S. officials must use when compiling their annual reports. Policies like Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI), government subsidies for abortion, and gender-affirming care for children are now being categorized as potential human rights infringements.

We want your feedback and questions. Text us here.AI isn't replacing leaders, it's redefining leadership. AI can optimize tasks, but it cannot replace influence, empathy, emotional intelligence, or human connection. In this episode, we unpack how the rise of AI is reshaping expectations for leaders and why soft skills are becoming the new hard skills. We discuss the risks leaders face when they over-automate communication, rely too heavily on data, or substitute human presence with digital efficiency. You'll learn how to stay relevant and influential by strengthening the skills AI can't replicate: listening, coaching, vision-casting, emotional intelligence, and authentic connection. If you want to thrive—not just survive—in an AI-driven world, this episode will equip you with the mindset and tools to lead with clarity, confidence, and connection.

DESCRIPTION Building a business that people trust, recognise, and seek out isn't about being perfect, it's about being authentic and doing your absolute best. This week, Jo & Vicky are joined by Charlotte Nichols the founder of dog industry centred PR agency Harvey and Hugo. Charlotte shares how using authentic PR techniques combined with your own story sets you apart and helps you to attract clients that are a perfect fit for you and what you are trying to achieve. Tune in for honest advice on overcoming self-doubt, simple PR strategies, and why showing up as yourself is your strongest brand move. KEY TAKEAWAYS PR is not just sending out a press release, writing a book or entering some awards. It literally is the way you decide to dress, the way you decide to speak, the way you decide to greet your customers Your quirks and real-life experiences are your brand's hidden superpower. Let what sets you apart define your business. Knowing your values makes every brand decision simpler. In a world of AI people are actively looking out for fakes and avoiding them, which is helping to make authenticity more powerful. People can trust you. Clients enjoy learning from your experiences, not perfection. Happy clients and authentic testimonials do more for you than slick marketing. Use stories and emotion in your PR, they're what people connect with and remember. Take creative risks. Standing out beats playing it safe every time. You don't need big budgets for PR, starting small and following up works wonders. There is a lot you can do yourself. Use the phone, not just social. Actually tale to people. As you grow, keep reminding the world exactly what makes you valuable. Redefine success on your terms. A lifestyle business can be powerful, profitable, and deeply fulfilling. BEST MOMENTS “You need to keep reinforcing why you create value for your customers and how you do it, and your customers telling that story is the best way.” “Don´t give up you´ve got to be relentless with PR.” “People do business with people, human to human. Forget B to B, B to C - It's human to human.” “Try and take a photograph that tells a story.” “Start small, start local.” “I'm gonna be as bold as to say, for a lot of us, certainly in the Force Free community, we are effectively marketing ourselves to our peers, our competitors, than we are to our ideal audience.” “People are employing other dog trainers… and then they're ending up like not making any profit. They're ending up having loads more stress. They're not actually happy. ” EPISODE RESOURCES https://harveyandhugo.com https://www.instagram.com/harveyandhugopr https://www.linkedin.com/company/harvey-and-hugo The Pocket Sized PR Plan - PRsonal Podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/prsonal/id1671838944 The Pocket-Sized PR podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-pocket-size-pr-podcast/id1790644301 SOCIALS AND IMPORTANT LINKS https://www.tiktok.com/@letstalkdogbusiness https://www.youtube.com/@LetsTalkDogBusiness Website www.caninebusinessacademy.com Community Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/caninebusinessacademycommunity/ Let´s Talk Dog Business Strategy Book - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Lets-Talk-Dog-Business-Strategy/dp/1068791705 Email hello@caninebusinessacademy.com ABOUT THE HOSTS We're Jo Moorcroft and Vicky Davies.

A corrida pelos semicondutores virou peça central da disputa tecnológica contemporânea. Entre todas as nações que tentam garantir seu espaço nessa arena, nenhuma avança tão rapidamente quanto a China. A pauta da autossuficiência tecnológica virou prioridade máxima em Pequim, e o setor de chips, antes um ponto vulnerável, transformou-se no centro de uma estratégia nacional de longo prazo. Thiago de Aragão, analista político Hoje, começa a ficar claro que a China está perigosamente próxima de alcançar independência em áreas que eram quase monopólio dos Estados Unidos e de seus aliados. Isso mexe profundamente com o equilíbrio geopolítico global, com as grandes empresas do setor e com o futuro da própria inovação. Até poucos anos atrás, a China importava praticamente tudo o que havia de sofisticado em semicondutores. Dependia de fornecedores estrangeiros para inteligência artificial, supercomputação e boa parte da indústria moderna. Mas decidiu inverter essa lógica. Por meio de políticas industriais agressivas, investimentos estatais bilionários e incentivos fiscais capazes de remodelar cidades inteiras, o país passou a construir uma cadeia de semicondutores completa, capaz de operar desde o design até a fabricação e o encapsulamento. Não foi um movimento tímido. A China atraiu engenheiros de outros países, formou centenas de milhares de profissionais qualificados, ergueu parques industriais dedicados exclusivamente ao setor e começou a desenvolver seus próprios equipamentos e softwares. Ainda há setores sensíveis em que o país não alcançou a liderança, como a litografia ultravioleta extrema, mas o avanço foi tão rápido que o atraso deixou de ser determinante. A Huawei, por exemplo, conseguiu produzir um smartphone com chip nacional de 7 nanômetros, algo que poucos analistas consideravam possível em tão pouco tempo. Pequim persegue a meta de autossuficiência não como retórica, mas como projeto de Estado de longo prazo. Esse avanço chinês ocorre ao mesmo tempo em que a disputa geopolítica entre China e Estados Unidos atinge temperaturas inéditas. Para os americanos, chips avançados deixaram de ser apenas componentes industriais e passaram a ser tratados como ativos fundamentais de segurança nacional. A resposta de Washington foi endurecer as regras de exportação, restringindo profundamente o acesso chinês aos semicondutores mais sofisticados e às máquinas usadas para produzi-los. A China, por sua vez, lê essas restrições como tentativa de contenção e responde reforçando sua própria musculatura industrial. Ao limitar exportações de minerais estratégicos e ao aumentar a escala de investimentos internos, Pequim sinaliza que está preparada para travar sua própria batalha assimétrica. O que antes era uma disputa essencialmente econômica virou uma disputa sistêmica entre dois modelos de poder. Impacto nos EUA Nesse ambiente, as gigantes do setor começaram a sentir impactos muito concretos. A Nvidia foi a mais atingida. Por anos, dominou o mercado chinês de chips de inteligência artificial. Quando os Estados Unidos restringiram a exportação dos modelos mais avançados, a empresa viu sua participação ser praticamente zerada no maior mercado de IA do planeta. Tentou adaptar-se criando versões menos potentes de seus chips, mas até essas passaram a enfrentar risco de bloqueio. Ao mesmo tempo, empresas chinesas se posicionaram para ocupar o espaço deixado. A Huawei avançou agressivamente com seus próprios chips de IA e passou a abastecer grande parte dos projetos domésticos. Startups chinesas ganharam impulso imediato, amparadas por um governo disposto a substituição tecnológica acelerada. Para a AMD e a Intel, o cenário segue a mesma linha. A exigência de que data centers ligados ao Estado utilizem apenas chips nacionais reduziu as perspectivas de crescimento dessas empresas e deixou claro que o impulso à autossuficiência chinesa não será revertido. Mesmo em PCs e servidores comuns, cresce a aposta chinesa em projetar e fabricar suas próprias CPUs e GPUs, erosão lenta porém contínua do espaço das fabricantes americanas. A Qualcomm enfrenta um tipo diferente de vulnerabilidade. Quase metade de sua receita global depende do ecossistema chinês de smartphones. Se a China consolidar produção própria de chips móveis em escala industrial, e se empresas como a Huawei retomarem posição dominante nas redes 5G e nos aparelhos premium, a Qualcomm enfrenta o risco real de perder um de seus pilares de receita. Revisão de estratégias Enquanto tudo isso acontece, o resto do mundo tenta reagir. Os Estados Unidos lançaram o CHIPS Act para trazer fábricas ao território nacional e fortalecer sua indústria. A Europa adotou suas próprias medidas, tentando recuperar relevância num setor que abandonou décadas atrás. Japão, Coreia do Sul, Taiwan e Índia entraram na disputa com incentivos fiscais, diplomacia tecnológica e promessas de redução de dependência externa. Pela primeira vez em décadas, países passaram a reorganizar cadeias de suprimento não pelo critério econômico clássico, mas por alinhamento político e percepção de risco. A lógica é simples: amigos produzem com amigos. O preço é a perda de eficiência e o aumento dos custos. O ganho é a sensação, ainda que relativa, de segurança estratégica. Mesmo assim, fragmentar um sistema global tão integrado quanto o dos semicondutores significa mexer com toda a estrutura da economia digital. As cadeias que antes conectavam Japão, Taiwan, Holanda, China e Estados Unidos passam agora a se reconfigurar em blocos paralelos, fragmentando o que já foi o setor mais globalizado do planeta. É um processo lento, caro e turbulento, mas inevitável à medida que as tensões aumentam. Avanço chinês Tudo isso mostra que o avanço chinês na fabricação de semicondutores não é um fato isolado. Ele redefine mercados, geopolítica e modelos de desenvolvimento. Empresas como Nvidia, AMD, Intel e Qualcomm percebem que, mesmo sendo líderes históricas, perderam um mercado onde o jogo mudou de regras. Países percebem que o fluxo de tecnologia deixou de ser neutro e se tornou arma estratégica. Consumidores perceberão, nos próximos anos, que existem tecnologias que só estarão disponíveis em determinados blocos, enquanto outros seguirão caminhos diferentes. A história ainda está sendo escrita, e ainda é cedo para dizer quem terá a vantagem definitiva. Mas uma coisa é clara: a disputa por chips é hoje a disputa pelo controle do futuro digital, da inteligência artificial, da computação avançada, da defesa e de tudo que depende de processamento. A China está acelerando, e o resto do mundo precisa decidir se corre junto, se cria obstáculos ou se tenta reinventar o jogo. O século XXI será escrito, em grande parte, por quem dominar essa indústria. E esse domínio já não está tão concentrado quanto esteve no passado recente.

From Wall Street's “culture of no” to early-Google hypergrowth to building a consulting business in Memphis with three kids, Meg lived the arc most founders dream about—and learned that money is only one measurement. Freedom, contribution, intellectual fulfillment, and time with family often matter far more.In this episode, we trace her journey from HR leader to entrepreneur, why business development is the real gauntlet, how networks—not algorithms—actually create opportunity, and why the ability to choose your work may be the highest form of wealth.We talk about corporate identity, the loneliness of early consulting, the illusion of digital shortcuts, and the gift of designing your life around family—especially when life throws real-world challenges like caring for a dying parent.No clichés. No hustle fantasy.Just the reality behind “success”—and why meaning often pays in different currencies.TL;DRSuccess isn't salary: Impact, thought leadership, and flexibility often matter more than income.Corporate → Startup → Consulting: Three worlds, three definitions of achievement.Network beats algorithms: You don't get clients—or jobs—from LinkedIn applications. You get them from people.Business dev never stops: Land a client → get busy → pipeline dries up → repeat.Life design is wealth: The freedom to choose work, time, and commitments is a form of success money can't buy.Lean thinking > corporate thinking: Consultants who've lived outside the safety net think clearer, simpler, and more efficiently.Legacy isn't money: Books, models, and ideas can become your version of “immortality.”Memorable Lines“Starting a business teaches you everything you never knew you didn't know.”“You can apply for 2,000 jobs online and hear nothing—your network is your real résumé.”“Consulting is freedom, but freedom comes with the cost of building your own pipeline.”“My definition of success now is simple: choice.”“Thought leadership is being known for what your mind creates—not for who signs your paycheck.”GuestMeg Crosby — Former Wall Street & Google People Ops leader turned consultant; co-author of Running the Gauntlet, corporate board member, and advisor to organizations seeking modern talent, culture, and people-strategy practices.
In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik has a straight talking conversation with transformational leadership coach and extreme adventurer Martin Palethorpe. This is not another hype session about grinding harder. Martin breaks down why so many high achievers quietly burn out even while they look successful on LinkedIn. He explains how real peak performance starts with the mind. Not more strategy. From racing across deserts and trekking to the magnetic North Pole to recovering from a 300 foot skydive crash and rebuilding life after a long marriage, Martin shows how mental clarity, nervous system regulation and conscious leadership create sustainable performance. You will hear practical ways to step off the hamster wheel, cut through internal noise and use breath, presence and simple physical challenges as leadership training. If you are a founder, executive or driven professional searching for depth instead of just more output, this episode is built to land About The Guest: Martin Palethorpe is a transformational leadership coach, adventurer and conscious leadership guide. For more than 25 years he has coached senior executives and founders while testing human limits in extreme environments. He has raced across multiple deserts, trekked to the magnetic North Pole and survived a 300 foot skydive crash. Along the way he has left corporate life, moved through the end of a 20 year marriage and rebuilt his inner and outer world. Martin blends discipline with intuition, performance with presence and physical challenge with spiritual clarity. Through his Quality of Mind work he helps leaders access clarity on demand, regulate their nervous systems and lead from wisdom instead of fear and pressure. Key Takeaways : Peak performance is less about pushing harder and more about removing the mental friction that blocks your existing capacity. The mind usually quits before the body. In extreme desert races, “escape gremlins” in the mind created stories to justify stopping while the body could continue. Obsessing over results and targets can damage performance. It fuels stress, burnout and illness rather than sustainable excellence. Most high achievers are driven by unexamined conditioning. Make more money. Move faster. Look successful. Without asking what any of that truly delivers. In a high pressure moment the simplest shift is to stop and breathe. Breathwork calms the nervous system so you can respond instead of react. You have to step off the hamster wheel. Retreats, quiet time and honest self inquiry are key to hearing deeper wisdom beneath autopilot thinking. Redefine failure. Playing full out means you will sometimes fall short. Protecting your image often costs you a fully lived life. Small physical challenges like cold water immersion expose how much suffering comes from the story in your mind rather than the situation itself. Real success is not about winning or status. It is about a healthy body, honest relationships, inner peace and meaningful impact. How To Connect With Martin Palethorpe : To explore Martin's retreats, coaching and Quality of Mind work.

Why do so many young creators feel stuck—limited by resources, confidence, or lack of opportunities—while a select few find ways to break through? In today's episode, we explore the real challenges facing the next generation of filmmakers: imposter syndrome, industry shifts, creative pressure, and the struggle to build momentum without traditional pathways or support networks.Our guest, Jake Ross Bell, is living proof that you don't need film school or Hollywood connections to create meaningful work. At just 21, Jake is an indie filmmaker, writer-director, and creator of the IndieFilm Insider podcast. Known for his dark, character-driven storytelling and gritty DIY approach, he's built a thriving creative community through his company, OrangeJuice Media, producing impactful films on small budgets while pushing artistic boundaries with vision and discipline.In this conversation, Jake shares:How the filmmaking landscape is shifting away from traditional gatekeepersWhy young creatives struggle with confidence—and how to lead even when you feel unqualifiedThe value of learning by doing versus waiting for permissionHow to build community, collaborate effectively, and stay resilientThe mindset needed to pursue big, ambitious projects at a young ageWhether you're a filmmaker, a young creative, or someone searching for direction in a noisy world, this episode offers clarity, inspiration, and a roadmap for turning passion into practice.Quotes:"If you see something that you don't like, do something about it. Don't actually just, you know, wait for it to change itself, because it's most likely not going to." "Art is just people trying to learn stuff about themselves, about the world, about others. That's kind of the vessel I chose—exploring darker dramas to understand the human experience.""A lot of what I would say are my skills come from actually just learning—making mistakes, trying things, and figuring out what works by doing." Actionable TakeawaysChallenge your creative excuses: Identify one project you've delayed because of fear, lack of resources, or perfectionism—and commit to starting it this week using whatever tools you already have.Lead before you feel ready: Practice giving clear direction in one area of your life (school, work, or creative projects). Leadership grows through repetition, not confidence.Study human behavior intentionally: Jake's stories come from observing real people. Spend 10–15 minutes a day watching interactions, emotions, and environments—then journal what you notice.Build your creative community: Reach out to one person who shares your artistic interests and propose a small collaboration. Don't wait for your “team”—start forming it.Redefine your filmmaking (or creative) education: Ask yourself, “What can I learn by doing instead of waiting to be taught?” Then take one concrete step—write a scene, film a rough shot, or create a simple 60-second story.ConclusionThis episode reminds us that creative growth doesn't come from waiting for permission, perfect conditions, or the “right time.” It comes from taking bold steps with what you have, where you are.

This week on Tales from The Lane, I'm joined by Dr. Kristen Strom — speaker, author, former English professor turned transformational wellness coach — for a deeply real, encouraging conversation about what it actually takes to stop surviving and start thriving. Kristen built the career she thought she always wanted: PhD, professor, teacher educator, mom of three, leadership roles—all the boxes checked. But behind the scenes? She was exhausted, burned out, and increasingly disconnected from herself. A single photo of her on a walk with her kids changed everything. In this episode, Kristen shares: ✨ How success on paper can mask deep misalignment ✨ The moment she realized no one was coming to save her ✨ The 3 pieces of the wellness puzzle ✨ The Be–Do–Have framework and how it can change everything ✨ One small, smart step you can take today to shift your momentum We also talk about the lies we tell ourselves ("later, later, later…"), the danger of thinking being busy means being fulfilled, and how to rebuild a life that aligns with who you've become—not who you were five years ago.

“Nobody can be an expert in everything — so you surround yourself with the right partners,” says Chris Young, CEO of Smartel. “That's how you deliver real value, reduce costs, and earn long-term trust.” In this latest episode of the TELCLOUD POTS and Shots Podcast Series, Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, is joined by Jake Jacoby, CEO of TELCLOUD, and special guest Chris Young, CEO of Smartel, for a compelling look at how collaboration, data-driven decision-making, and unified connectivity strategies are transforming the POTS replacement landscape. Young introduces Smartel as a 23-year veteran in mobile solutions and wireless expense management, known for simplifying large, complex wireless ecosystems. Their approach centers on centralized management, data ingestion tools, standardized policies, and a responsive customer service model, all aimed at lowering costs and streamlining operations for enterprises nationwide. Jacoby explains why Smartel is an ideal partner for TELCLOUD's POTS replacement vision. As organizations confront escalating copper costs, service shutdowns, and outdated infrastructure, Smartel's audits often reveal both unused POTS lines and mission-critical lines at risk. By pairing Smartel's visibility with TELCLOUD's life-safety-grade replacement platform, the two companies deliver cost savings, continuity, and a long-term service model built to last decades. The discussion widens to the larger industry transformation. With the copper sunset accelerating and AI reshaping telecom workflows, both executives describe POTS replacement as a gateway opportunity — the immediate need that opens the door to broader conversations about edge connectivity, SD-WAN, IoT, backup strategy, and comprehensive modernization. As Young notes, “POTS is our biggest door-opener right now — everyone needs it, and it leads to deeper relationships almost every time.” Jacoby adds that while POTS is hot today, the service is required for the next 20 years, creating dependable recurring revenue for partners who can guide customers through the transition. Both stress that customers ultimately want simplicity, reliability, and cost control — and partnerships like TELCLOUD + Smartel are built to deliver exactly that. And true to the Shots tradition, the episode closes with a tasting of Don Julio Ceniza, an exceptionally rare Extra Añejo aged in charred oak barrels. Smooth, smoky, and difficult to find, Jacoby describes it as one of his personal favorites — and surprises both Doug and Chris by sending each of them a bottle to enjoy off-camera. The perfect pairing for a discussion about premium craftsmanship and long-term value. The POTS and Shots series continues to blend industry insight with cultural storytelling, helping MSPs and partners navigate the telecom transition while taking a tour of the world's greatest tequilas.

In this inspiring episode, TEDx speaker and entrepreneur Carla Singson shares her journey of courage, reinvention, and self-awareness in pursuing her dreams over and over again. From overcoming fear, shame, and uncertainty to redefining success as peace and authenticity, Carla's story reminds us that confidence and joy come from leaning into what feels true and right for you. Key Takeaways: Audacity means honesty with yourself: having the courage to go against the grain and live life on your own terms. Self-awareness is key to knowing when to persist and when to pivot; sit with yourself and listen to what feels right. Overcome fear by releasing shame: failure is simply tuition for growth, and your effort will never betray you. Confidence grows from competence and perspective: practice your craft and remind yourself that the worst-case scenario often isn't that bad. Redefine success as peace: true success is living authentically, valuing inner calm over external validation or wealth.

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 1:09 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 rejuvenating convo I have with Rachel Varga in our last episode. If you haven't yet listened to that episode, you need to do it, because she's amazing, and we've been using her tips, and some of them are extremely effective. I other ones I just haven't tried yet. I'm really impressed. But today, before we get into Rachel's amazing tips for your rejuvenating means, like skin all that kind of stuff, today is November 13th and it is World Kindness Day. Brad Crowell 1:40 Yes, it is. Lesley Logan 1:07 Damn it. That's what my papa Jake would say, celebrating like, meaning like we're gonna do it like that kind of damn it, okay. Celebrated internationally, this holiday was formed in 1998 to promote kindness throughout the world, and it's observed annually on November 13th as part of World Kindness Movement. It's observed in many countries, including the United States, Canada, Japan, Australia and the UAE. World Kindness Day presents us with the opportunity to reflect upon one of the most important unifying human principles. Oh, just period. On a day devoted to the positive potential of both large and small, acts of kindness try to promote and diffuse this crucial quality that brings people of every kind together.Brad Crowell 2:17 Yeah, so the World Kindness Movement. Lesley Logan 2:25 Tell us more. Brad, Brad Crowell 2:26 the world Kindness Movement is an organization, and they so well the world kindness movement.org if you're interested in reading more. I found it really intriguing that this is even a day, but I like the idea. I just think it's important that we are being conscious of this sharing kindness generally, because I think that in our extreme split political environment and belief in science and reality versus non science and non reality, it actually creates a lot of frustration. It really creates a lot of frustration for me, and this is a good reminder to that we still have to treat people who, you know, we definitely disagree with. We still have to treat them as humans, as people, even if we don't think what they're doing or thinking or saying makes sense, they're still humans, and we still have to treat them with kindness, regardless.Lesley Logan 3:18 You know, what's interesting about this is like we used to when we lived in LA, many of our neighbors were homeless, right? Like where we lived, and it's so easy. I watch people like they turn their head away from homeless people like they just don't even look at them, but then they wonder why they're not treating the area like with respect. It's like we don't feel like we're human. You know, you're not looking them in the eye. There are simple acts of kindness you can do every day. In fact, Kim Scott wrote a book, 100 Acts of Love, which you can put kindness in there. There are things you can do for people. Obviously, that book was written for people going through a loss, but there are things you can do. And it's really funny, art, art. My dad is like, he like acts like he hates talking to people. But then we go to the gym, which is through a casino, and he talks to everybody. He knows the name of every security guard. He knows every he knows the name of every parking attendant, right? He we now know the names of several dealers at the casino. And you know what I think makes them their day is that we just like, say hi. They're not they're staying there, waiting for someone to come to their booth or whatever, and we're like, morning, good morning. It just makes people feel seen. Like even just acknowledging people with an eye contact and a wave makes people feel seen. And I think that if we did more of that, the world will be a better place. So I think. Maslow hierarchy of needs is really real. Maslow's hierarchy, hierarchy of needs. It's a hard word for me tonight. And we judge people based on like, Oh my God. I can't believe they did that. But if they don't know where their food or meal or health care is coming from, of course they did that. You are in the Enlightened level because. You have some privileges to your life, and I'm not saying that to make you feel bad about yourself, but it is, we have to stop judging people who have less than us. We have to have more kindness. I I'm in. Okay, you take us through the first half of this list. It's long. Brad Crowell 5:13 All right, we're gonna move real quick through our upcoming events and travel y'all so come join us, if you, if we're gonna be near you. Okay, in November this no, this month we are going to do.Lesley Logan 5:22 Right now the month we're in. Brad Crowell 5:24 Thanks.

We are actually going to be on the road in December, and we've already made the announcements go to opc.me/tour for tickets, all the things.Lesley Logan 5:50 Days are already sold out, so you got to get in there quick. Brad Crowell 5:53 Yep. Okay. So next is while we're not doing a Black Friday, Cyber Monday sale in for Profitable Pilates at the end of December, we are going to have a sneak peek option offer for you to join Agency. We haven't really made this announcement anywhere except for the pod, so you are the enlightened ones. As we were talking about, we're giving you a heads up if you've ever considered joining Agency, but you weren't quite sure if it was for you. We got we're going to do just a short month where you can, like, figure it out, see if it's your jam, and join us. Lesley Logan 6:24 Well, it's a full month, but it's a short commitment.Brad Crowell 6:27 Short commitment. I mean, it'll be a month. So anyway, it'll be the end of December, December 26th through the 31st and then in January, Les?Lesley Logan 6:35 I'll be the Pilates journal Expo in Huntington Beach. It's the first one that they're doing in the US. And I've got a world premiere of a workshop that they were like, we love that people really want to, just like, ask you questions. And don't worry, there's an actual workshop to it, but it's a space where you can ask me questions. And so you want to go to xxll.co/pilatesjournal to get your tickets to that. Then also, in January, we're going to open up the early bird discount for our retreat for 2026 and many of you asked about it, you need to be on the waitlist if you want the discount. If you want to pay full price, don't get on the waitlist. It's fine. Go to crowsnestretreats.com and February, Agency Mini is happening. It is you want to get on the waitlist for that as well. Different waitlist link. It's prfit.biz/mini. What is Agency Mini? It's like three days of us digging into your business and on like a problem. So you can see what it's like to coach with us. That's for Pilates instructors and studio owners and anyone who's like in that service-based industry. And then in March, we are going to Poland, and we're going to Brussels with Karen Frischmann. There are different workshops at each they are on different days, because we cannot be in two places at once. So if you are interested in Poland, it's gonna be the one that happens before Brussels. And I can't remember the dates of it, but it's xxll.co/poland it's like the third weekend in March, and then the last weekend of March is Brussels. Not only we there with Karen Frischmann, we're gonna be there with Ignacio, whose last name I can't remember at this moment, but he's amazing, and the most beautiful eyes and the most incredible kind instructor. xxll.co/brussels and then in April, P.O.T London will be there with Claire Sparrow and some amazing other people. You're not gonna want to miss it. So there's your links they're in the show notes. Brad Crowell 8:20 Ignacio Rodriguez. Lesley Logan 8:22 Oh, Ignacio Rodriguez, yes, well, anyways, he is a special soul. I mean. Brad Crowell 8:26 He's from Spain, yeah. Lesley Logan 8:27 I know he's like, a Pilates Buddha. Brad Crowell 8:29 Yes, he's awesome. Lesley Logan 8:31 That's what I like. Whenever I was around him, I just was like, oh my God, he's the calmest person. Like his energy is so calm you cannot be anything but that around him, he doesn't listen to this podcast. So he wouldn't hear the compliment. Okay, before we get into Rachel's episode, who, what is our question this week?Brad Crowell 8:50 Okay this week, with a question on YouTube from @BodyFlexZone, all about the OPC Flashcard Deck series, they asked, Hey, could you possibly include the exo chair and the springboard in your flashcards?Lesley Logan 9:07 So BodyFlexZone, I'm sorry to tell you the news, but this is exciting too, so don't turn it off. We're not going to do that.Brad Crowell 9:15 No. Lesley Logan 9:16 No. Brad Crowell 9:17 Here's why. Lesley Logan 9:18 Here's why. They're included already. How do I explain this? The I write the cards as a classically trained instructor with classical equipment. They are edited by a contemporary trained instructor who has contemporary equipment, including she is has an exo chair and was trained on a springboard, and the measurements for how to use the hooks on your springboard exist in the Cadillac deck now.Brad Crowell 9:46 So, so while we are not creating a special deck for the exo chair or a special deck for the springboard, if you get the Chairs Deck, the exo chair information would be applicable. It's applicable. You know the information of the Chairs Deck is applicable to the exo chair. And in the same vein, the Cadillac Tower Deck is applicable. It includes information about springboard informationLesley Logan 10:09 Correct, because some springboards have pushed through bars, some springboards don't. There are cards that will say it's pro like they're marked that they might not be available on a tower, which means they're definitely not available on a springboard and so. But also, there's a card in each deck on how to use the deck, and it explains, if you have an Exo chair, like how to it doesn't say exo chair specifically. It's like, if your chair has four hooks, here's how to think about it. So both decks are very useful. And if you get those decks, if you ever have access to a full Cadillac or tower, you have a bunch of cards you get to use. You don't have to take a special training for it, because you've already been trained. So you can get our flash cards at opc.me/flashcards. All six decks are out. Oh, you might want to go to the website during the Black Friday, Cyber Monday. Brad Crowell 10:56 For those of you who were unable to hear what she said, you might want to go to the website during the Black Friday, Cyber Monday sale. Just a heads up.Lesley Logan 11:03 Don't miss it, because if you ask us later, no, we're not the we're only doing it for five days.Brad Crowell 11:09 Hey, send in your questions to the pod. Go to beitpod.com/questions where you can leave a win or a question, or you can also text us at 310-905-5534. Stick around. We'll be right back. We're going to dig into this really interesting conversation we have with Rachel Varga, all about rejuvenation. Brad Crowell 11:27 Welcome back. Let's talk about Rachel Varga. Okay. Rachel is a registered nurse and an aesthetic specialist who's been in the field of non surgical rejuvenation since 2011. She's published research on eye and jawline rejuvenation, teaches doctors and nurses internationally, and now blends her expertise with biohacking to help people age well. Rachel is the founder of the School of Radiance, and also hosts the School of Radiance podcast, where she shares how skincare, lifestyle and self-care can create lasting beauty from the inside out.Lesley Logan 12:01 Yeah, I've been on her pod. You should go listen to our episodes together there, and if you like it, then you have another podcast to listen to. She's, it's, I really enjoy this because, okay, I have been wanting to have someone, an expert like this, on for a while, but I didn't want it to be a vanity, like, I didn't want people to be like, Oh, it's so vain, you know, like so many people are like, I don't know, raw milking it. So they're not going to want to talk about Botox or things like that. And I well, you know, some people get granola and they're like, I gotta not do anything to my body. But also, if something's really, like she said, if something is really bothering you, like specific lines or scars or jowls, addressing it is beneficial, because oftentimes if you feel you look better, you feel better, and if you feel better, you actually just look better, like if you actually feel good about yourself, you walk around taller, you engage with people in a different way. And so it's kind of like a chicken or the egg thing, and I appreciate her approach. If you listen to the episode, it's not like, everyone needs Botox. There's always something wrong with you. No, it's like, okay, what are some of the things you can do that are non surgical, that actually do work? I, I have, I will say you're going to want to listen to her second episode, which we're not going to talk about today, but we talk about a lot of things that are like, a waste of your money and waste your time. She's very, very intelligent and doesn't waste her time. But I do think that what she talked about is people are not viewing rejuvenation as being vain anymore. They're actually seen as a form of self-care. And I do think there's a balance of what can we do as part of our self-care routine that makes us feel better about how we look, so we feel better about how we look.Brad Crowell 13:46 Yeah. That's what I was gonna say, hardcore.Lesley Logan 13:51 Well, I don't know, like, here's the thing, I really appreciate, I forget which actress it was, what's that beautiful woman? Not Diane Lane is beautiful, but she also did one of the Fast and the Furious. She's like a dame, gray hair actress.Brad Crowell 14:06 There were 10 or 11 Fast and the Furious movies. Lesley Logan 14:09 I know the more of the recent of them, and she is like, she also was in like a beautiful bathing suit in the tabloids. And I was like, I want to look like her when I'm when I'm 80. I can't think of it. Everyone's yelling at her in their car right now, but you know who I'm talking about. She talked about how, like, she said, don't like, she's letting wrinkles happen. And I also would like to let those things happen. And there are some things that just bother me, and I don't want them to, and they become a distraction for me, being it till I see it. So I do think that if like how you look is affecting how you're operating your day. It is, there is a point where you do need to actually address, like, what is going on here, because it's becoming an obstacle. I'll look it up while you say what you loved. Brad Crowell 14:52 Yeah. So one thing I thought was important was this conversation of. Lesley Logan 14:58 Helen Mirren. Brad Crowell 14:59 That was really fast. And I'm very impressed. Brad Crowell 15:01 Do you know what I looked up? I said, older actress, stunning, fast and the furious. She's on top of the searches.Brad Crowell 15:12 I went to IMDb and I started with Fast and the Furious. I was like, there's so many actors. Lesley Logan 15:17 You gotta go with my, my way.Brad Crowell 15:23 Yeah, I just, I just thought I wanted to comment about what you had said about what your topic was, that we beat ourselves up over this idea that we're gonna like focusing on how we look is somehow wrong, and I, and I think that.Lesley Logan 15:39 But then also, everything your entire life is based on how you look. You know, like we're told not to focus on how we look. However, especially if you were raised as a woman in the church, how you look could make your brother stumble, so you better figure that out. But then also, you better be sexy for your husband, or he's gonna wander. And then, oh, if you look too old, you're not going to get the job, because they don't want an older woman, like, like, so there's all this stuff about how we're not supposed to care how we look, but actually, everything is about how we look. And if you're a dude, you just get fucking hotter as you get older. And it's really annoying.Brad Crowell 16:14 Well, I love that you took all the words right out of my mouth. So here's what I was going to say, is that I think it's important to that it when we are holding ourselves to this idea that feeling like we want to care about how we look is wrong, somehow. What she mentioned was confidence, and I liked that because I thought, Hey, why do we buy a nice shirt or buy some, you know, dress shoes, you know, for the office, because we like the way that we look in those and it gives us this idea that we got it together. And I don't know why we would think that it's okay to buy a nice blouse or blazer or shoes but not do the same thing for our face or our skincare or our weight or our working out, or whatever.Lesley Logan 17:14 The food we eat or the yeah, yeah, yeah, the things that we do to make ourselves feel good. I agree. I think that makes a lot of sense.Brad Crowell 17:22 Yeah. So, you know, anyway, my point is that it is I think it's okay. I think it's okay. Lesley Logan 17:31 I, here's the thing, I really have come to a place where it's like, if the thing that you do for yourself doesn't affect anyone else negatively, it's none of my fucking business.Brad Crowell 17:43 Okay, here's, here's, let's actually start with, because I'm logical, let's actually start with the definition of vanity. Lesley Logan 17:50 Okay, let's do that. Brad Crowell 17:52 Excessive pride. Well, excessive pride in or admiration of one's own appearance or achievements. Excessive pride, right?Lesley Logan 18:01 So walking around telling everyone I'm so fucking stunning.Brad Crowell 18:02 I'm so amazing. Look how awesome I am. Look how beautiful I am, right? That is vanity, but giving a shit about how you look is not vanity, right? That we've conflated this idea and we beat ourselves up. Lesley Logan 18:17 Brad, you're fucking brilliant. It's like the word selfish, like, how self-care has become selfish care, like the fact that you'd spend any extra amount of time thinking about yourself instead of your children, the people you work for, the people you do things for the people you love. Like, that's selfish. This is amazing. And I do love this because, okay, Amy Cuddy, whose TED Talk is where the title of this podcast came from, and if anyone knows her, I would love that interview. But she talked about how she does study about the power stance, the Wonder Woman stance, when you do it for five minutes, you actually appear and feel more confident in an interview. They did a literal scientific study, and they had people not stand in a power stance and sit slumped for five minutes, bad posture. And then go in, and then they ask them, how confident you feel. They ask the interviewers, how confident did they seem? Did they appear? You figuring out what rejuvenation and as a form of self-care that works for you, which is very different, that works for me, very different than anyone else, that is like staying in the power stance. It's an action. It's something that you're doing so that you can show up as your whole self and give the world like the version of you that that will make an impact. Yeah, that cannot be bad. I'm in. Brad Crowell 18:37 Yeah. And I think that, you know, when we have confidence, obviously it allows us to deliver our, you know, purpose in life better. It makes us enjoy what we're doing more. It definitely just changes the way we show up in our community and the way that we see ourselves. Right? So, you know, and the world sees that too. You know, when we put effort into ourselves, we show the world that we are valuable because we value ourselves. And I think that is also important, is that we that that belief in yourself, right, the knowledge that you are worthy, even though it seems internal, it is very visible to other people. When you know that you belong there to do the thing you know, or you believe you belong there, to do the thing other people perceive that they pick up on that. Lesley Logan 20:25 Well, yeah, and also, like, and just, I'm gonna tell you one of your points, she we're talking about this. We're talking about rejuvenation, way that looks natural and feels good, that builds confidence. We're not talking about like, go overdo it. We know the people who look like they're overdone, you know, like, you know, we're not talking about getting a new face like the Kardashian mom. We're talking about like, just like, and it's we're not talking about doing Botox or or surgery. It can be as simple as, like, massaging your face, or the type that money you spend on the moisturizer that makes you feel good, like, these are, we're talking non surgical approaches.Brad Crowell 21:03 Yeah, yeah. So, you know, I think when you are that, because we think that self-care equals vanity, that's where we're going wrong. But when we, when we can separate the two and understand that vanity is excessive. You know, celebration of your beauty or your achievements, that is obtuse, that is annoying, that is like, you don't want to listen, you don't want to be around somebody like that. We all know people like that. (inaudible)Lesley Logan 21:31 There's the song you're so vain, you probably think the song is about you. That is a definition.Brad Crowell 21:43 But when you care about yourself, you know it's okay to to put yourself first and make that part of your self-care routine and you know. Lesley Logan 21:53 Well, I also think you're I'm not (inaudible) you up. I'm so sorry. This is our ADHD problem. I think if something is keeping you from showing up and making the impact in your world, and it has to do with your looks. It is not vain or selfish to do something about it, if it's if, if that thing is keeping you from actually showing up as your whole self to make the impact you so desire to make, the world is missing out. Brad Crowell 22:18 Yeah. Actually, a great example would be braces, or Invisalign, or, you know, even, like surgical, surgery, surgery on your teeth. Like it comes across as, like a crazy expense sometimes, but, you know, night and day difference we, we've had, I've had a really close friend of mine growing up who had surgery in his 20s, and he smiles now, you know. And I remember seeing the difference in him because he never he was no longer judging himself, you know, (inaudible).Lesley Logan 22:19 I watched something where this girl, every time she'd smile, she or laugh out loud, put her hand in front of her mouth, because she doesn't want people to see her teeth and and then, through this one organization, they fixed them. And no one would say that she's being fucking vain. No one would. And because we're now.Brad Crowell 23:12 I mean that was surgery, that was surgery. This subject, we're not necessarily talking about it, but like Invisalign, or braces (inaudible).Lesley Logan 23:18 If it's going to make you smile a little brighter, going back to World Kindness Day and making people feel seen, I would hate for someone to not get the joy from your smile. When people smile at me, I'm like, Oh, hi. Like it just brightens your day, like it snaps you out of the whirlwind that's in your mind. And I just, I was really excited to have her on because I thought it was a really honest conversation about about inner beauty and what we what would make us feel good. And I just don't think there's anything wrong. And I think it's really important you hear this, there is nothing wrong with doing things for yourself that make you feel beautiful. And if you were ever told that focusing on what makes you feel beautiful is wrong. There's some deconstruction and some, I really, when we took my eyelashes, my fake eyelashes off, it was really hard for me. It was extremely hard. I didn't look the same anymore. I had to do a lot of self-talk, but I went to Sephora, literally the next day, I was like, you have to help me. I look like a molten like a mole rat. And that is an actual thing that exists. And yes, I did look like a mole rat, if you look it up, but I she taught me, okay, the best makeup starts with the best skincare for you, she said to me, and that's what Rachel's also talked about, the non surgical approaches. And then the second thing is, by that girl teaching me a couple tricks with makeup, I could show up and do my tour as my whole self in a non-distracted way. Because I was like, Oh, my God, people are gonna be staring at me. Talk about the braces and the weird things. I have no eyelashes. That is not what people are used to seeing. Okay? So, so I just think that, like, I if it's okay, I believe it, because I felt it. I've been there. I've been there when you're like, Oh my God, my face is numb from the dentist. Like, I don't even want to see me. If things like that are keeping you from showing up on a daily basis, you owe it to yourself and the people that you can impact on this world to find some way to fill that natural confidence by taking care of yourself. So that's what I think.Brad Crowell 25:24 All right, awesome. Well, I think we've, we've talked through that pretty exhaustively. Lesley Logan 25:28 I feel good about it. Brad Crowell 25:29 Yeah, stick around. We'll be right back. We have some more tips from Rachel and the Be It Action Items. We'll be right back. Brad Crowell 25:36 Welcome back. 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 Rachel Varga? She said, Hey, high protein and creatine, right? High protein intake, one gram to one and a half grams of protein per pound of body weight. Now, you probably heard Lesley mention this a lot. She definitely is on board with this. She said. Lesley Logan 26:00 It's so hard. Just be kind to yourself. Brad Crowell 26:02 It's hard, but, but, you know, there's, there are ways, and actually, a lot of it had to do with changing the food that we're eating. For example, I had a high protein bagel today, you know. And you know, it was, I don't even know what it was, a lot of protein for a bagel. And so they're, you know, eggs, and all those extra beans.Lesley Logan 26:18 I, we're not sponsored by them. But hi, Owyn, they have a 32 gram protein shake, and it's only what you need. There's nothing weird about it, I'm sure. Like, look, the biohackers would not like that we're talking about processed food, but it takes time to switch your diet around. And if you're trying to do this, it does take time. So pick a meal a day and kind of work your way towards her. But I wanted to say, I fucking love that her, Be It Action Items have nothing to do with like, going to a med spa. Brad Crowell 26:45 Right, to do beauty stuff or whatever. Yeah, I mean, because it's just like your your your Sephora experience, she said the best way to fix your eyelashes is your skincare, right? So the in this case, she's Rachel's talking about high protein and creatine, because when you she started lifting heavy and focusing on high protein, it gave her more inner power activation, and that was great for her skin, right, So that's, that's, that's.Lesley Logan 27:14 And there's tons, ladies who are listening, we have a lot of perimenopausal women. There's a ton of research on doubling up on that creatine.Brad Crowell 27:20 Yeah. And she also talked about collagen, because collagen will also help your skin. If you're watching YouTube, you can laugh along with me.Lesley Logan 27:31 I've been doing collagen since, like, religiously, since 2016 because in 2015 I did a test, and the guy's like, you have no collagen. And then a year later I did the test, he's like, okay, so you you're off the charts in collagen. And I was like, is that a bad thing? Should I, like, slow it down? And he's like, I think you could be okay. And I have not slowed it down.Brad Crowell 27:48 So we've got a call to action for you here if you want to go to theschoolofradiance.com theschoolofradiance.com, you can use a promo code, LesleyLogan15, L-E-S-L-E-Y Logan15 for 15% off one of her membership. She said there's also a free 30-minute biohacking lesson you can get on there that has a checklist, her skincare checklist, and it's available on her site. Lesley Logan 28:11 And also, like, depending on where you live, the seasons change your skincare routine has to as well. Brad Crowell 28:16 Yeah. What about you? Lesley Logan 28:18 Okay, another interesting non-meds related, Be It Action Item, which is just why I love her, right? Like you don't like, it doesn't have to always be like, get this moisturizer. She recommended breath work, specifically during exercise, to keep cortisol down and remain in a parasympathetic rest and digest state, which helps slow aging and collagen loss. So this is what I love, because in the like, people are gonna try to sell you stuff all the time, and this is fucking free. So breathe in for four seconds, hold it for four seconds, exhale for four seconds, and do that four to five times, by the way, it's called Box breathing as well. And she explains that elevated cortisol results in a drop in estrogen. When estrogen falls, collagen, elastin fall too. So you want to breathe, because it's going to help slow your aging down, and that costs $0.Brad Crowell 29:14 Yeah, she said, you two were specifically talking about lifting in the gym. And she said the guys will try to spike their cortisol. And she said, I don't want to do that. Lesley Logan 29:23 Yeah, also, and I know there's and I being a woman today, it's like, what are we listening to? Look, keeping your cortisol down is always going to be a good thing, especially if you're in perimenopause or post it'll help your sleep, which is going to help you age better. But also, when you're doing Pilates, this is something that people struggle with. You got to breathe in and out through your nose, because that keeps you cool. It keeps you calm, it keeps you grounded, keeps that cortisol down, which helps you age slower. I love this. She's coming back because I was like, Oh my God, I didn't even get to all the tools.

You'll learn how to: Identify what season you're truly in — and set aligned goals Say "no" with confidence and protect your energy Redefine success on your own terms Choose peace, purpose, and presence over pressure Because doing it your way means more than building a business — it's about designing a life that fits who you're becoming.

Today's conversation is for the Type A, high achieving, often overwhelmed and anxious nervous system folk. Amanda talk about the pattern we often see where we stop our self-care habits when we feel good, but stopping them often puts us back into a spiral of anxiety and the story of, "why do I do this? I'm just not disciplined or motivated enough, etc..." But what if that's not the problem at all?In this episode, we reframe what it means to “stay consistent,” explore why many of us use overwhelm as our barometer, and talk about how true discipline might actually look like doing less, not more.3 Takeaways:1. Maybe you're not falling back into "bad habits" - you're overcommitting until self-care becomes impossible. When life gets good, we reflexively add more to our plates instead of maintaining what's working. The problem isn't lack of discipline; it's trying to fit 60 hours of life into 24 hours of human capacity.2. Not all regulation tools are meant to be forever - and that's okay. Healing requires adjusting your “protocol.” Just like you don't need an ankle brace after your sprain heals, some nervous system supports are temporary medicine for acute times. The key is knowing which practices are your anchors (the ones you need even when you're well) versus which ones can naturally fade as you heal.3. Redefine discipline: Maybe it's not the choice to do more, it's the courage to do less. True discipline means saying no to opportunities even though you could squeeze them in, maintaining white space in your calendar even though it makes you anxious, and remembering that feeling good isn't permission to overwhelm yourself again. Ask yourself: "At what cost?" before saying yes.—Looking for more personalized support?Book a FREE discovery call for RESTORE, our 1:1 anxiety & depression coaching program (HSA/FSA eligible & includes comprehensive bloodwork)Join me inside Regulated Living, a mental health membership and nervous system healing space (sliding scale pricing available)Order my book, Healing Through the Vagus Nerve today!*Want me to talk about something specific on the podcast?

In this heartfelt year-end reflection, Lucy reminds listeners that even when it feels like they didn't achieve much, quiet growth and inner transformation still count as powerful progress. She encourages embracing gratitude, grace, and self-compassion while redefining what success truly means before stepping into a new year. Key Takeaways: Growth isn't always loud, even slow, quiet seasons hold valuable lessons. Confidence is built in the stillness, not just in achievements or recognition. Redefine success by honoring who you're becoming, not just what you've accomplished. Gratitude turns every experience, even detours, into part of your journey forward.

Welcome to The Chopping Block — where crypto insiders Haseeb Qureshi, Tom Schmidt, Tarun Chitra, and Robert Leshner chop it up about the latest in crypto. This week, Kaledora Linn, Co-founder and “Empress of RWAs” at Ostium, joins to break down the rise of on-chain equity perps, the funding-rate chaos that hit 365%, and why she believes the next wave of tokenized assets won't come from exchanges—but from structured liquidity markets. We dive deep into Ostium's hybrid CFD model that blends TradFi mechanics with on-chain transparency, explore why most retail traders can't stomach perp carry costs, and debate what “safe leverage” could look like in an RWA world. The panel also touches on CZ's presidential pardon and Coinbase's new Echo platform, connecting the dots between political optics, capital formation, and how crypto's product design is evolving beyond speculation. Whether you're building perpetual DEXs, tokenizing RWAs, or just trying to survive the next funding-rate spike, this episode unpacks how market design, UX, and regulation will shape crypto's next trillion-dollar frontier.
