Last year, there were 36 whales entangled with commercial fishing gear off the coasts of Oregon, Washington and California, or found entangled with West Coast fishing gear off the coasts of other countries. That’s the highest number of whale entanglements in the West Coast region since 2018, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.    More than eight years ago, scientists at Oregon State University began collaborating with the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife, the commercial Dungeness crab fishery and environmental nonprofits to reduce entanglements of endangered humpback, fin and blue whales off the Oregon Coast. OSU scientists boarded research vessels and U.S. Coast Guard helicopters for surveys at sea and air to map the distribution of whales and their overlap with Dungeness crab fishing locations.      The scientists found that the risk of entanglement in fishing gear is greatest for whales in April when they gather near shore to feed off the Oregon Coast, and the crab fishing season is still underway. That observation and discussions with stakeholders led to best practices and regulations adopted by ODFW to limit the risk of entanglement by, for example, reducing crab pot limits at the end of the season.   Today, OSU scientists are expanding this work to include the risk of entanglement from other commercial fisheries, including rockfish and sablefish. They’ve also been analyzing scars on humpback whales’ tails and fins to better estimate how many whales are getting wrapped up in nets, lines, pots and buoys. Leigh Torres is an associate professor in the department of fisheries, wildlife and conservation sciences and Oregon Sea Grant Extension at Oregon State University. She joins us to share the latest with this award-winning effort to reduce whale entanglements off the Oregon Coast and beyond.

Parenting a child with sensory challenges can feel like a guessing game. One day a fidget toy works, the next day it's tossed across the room. That's because it's not about the object—it's about the strategy behind it. Sensory tools aren't quick fixes, but when chosen with intention, they can transform how your child responds to stress, transitions, and everyday demands.In this episode, I'll share 5 therapist-recommended sensory tools that actually help kids regulate—not just distract them. You'll learn how to match tools to your child's sensory needs, whether they're bouncing off the walls or shutting down from overload.With the right sensory input, kids can build body awareness, reduce anxiety, and settle into calmer routines at home, in the classroom, and even at bedtime.Why does my child melt down even when I give them fidget toys?You've filled the bins with fidget toys and sensory tools, but the meltdowns keep coming. You're not alone.The truth is, fidgets can distract, but they don't always provide the sensory input a child's nervous system really needs.Here's what to remember:Fidgets don't work for every child—some kids need deep pressure to calm, others need movement or vestibular input to focus.Look for signs of sensory seekers and avoiders: crashing into couch cushions, covering ears at loud noises, refusing certain textures, or zoning out in busy places.Behavior is communication. A meltdown is your child's nervous system saying, “I can't handle this input.”The right sensory tool matters. Matching tools to your child's unique sensory processing needs is what leads to real regulation.

Today I'm sitting down with Dr. Filip Larsen, the physiologist behind a tiny green shot that pros say helps them go harder with less burn. One preprint shows lower blood lactate at the same power after a single dose; WorldTour riders like Mads Pedersen claim they feel a real boost. But is it biology or placebo? We'll unpack the science, design a blinded test I can do on the bike, and then go way beyond the drink: overtraining, CGMs, mitochondria, and how to actually train smarter.

En este episodio hablamos de: Idea central La muerte y la conciencia de ella nos orientan hacia lo esencial de la vida. Muchos de nuestros sufrimientos provienen de miedos básicos que, en el fondo, se relacionan con la posibilidad de no sobrevivir o de ser rechazados. ⚖️ Dos grandes miedos 1. ¿Seré capaz? ◦ Miedo ligado a la supervivencia física y económica. ◦ Relacionado con las necesidades fisiológicas y de seguridad (comida, refugio, salud, estabilidad, control). 2. ¿Qué van a decir de mí? ◦ Miedo vinculado al rechazo social y la valoración externa. ◦ Relacionado con las necesidades de amor/pertenencia y de estima (aceptación, prestigio, éxito, reconocimiento). ️ Pirámide de Maslow y los miedos • Fisiológicas: miedo a no tener comida, agua, refugio → miedo a morir. • Seguridad: miedo a guerras, violencia, perder el trabajo, incertidumbre. • Amor y pertenencia: miedo al rechazo, a no encajar, a quedarse solo. • Estima: miedo al fracaso, humillación, ridículo, a no ser valorado. • Autorrealización: más que miedo, aparece el vacío existencial (sensación de falta de sentido). Superación • Vivir con conciencia de la muerte ayuda a romper el bucle del control y el miedo. • La autorrealización da sentido y coloca en orden los demás niveles: ◦ Reduce el miedo a no ser capaz. ◦ Relativiza lo que otros piensen. ◦ Llena de propósito, amor verdadero, compasión y empatía.

Mastalgia is a common breast complaint in reproductive aged women. Mastalgia can be separated into three categories: 1) cyclical, 2) noncyclical, and 3) extramammary. Vitamin B6 is often cited as a homeopathic (non-prescription/pharmacological) remedy for simple mastalgia. Does the published data support its use? A newly published meta-analysis sheds light on the subject.1. Sharifipour, F., Siahkal, S.F. & Bagherinia, M.

How are they free, you ask, because he sees what you're trying to do. Then he goes to the franchise, the parent company, and he says, pay me, and I'll help these guys succeed doing your franchise. Pretty brilliant. I was like, wow, that's amazing.Lesley Logan 0:20  Welcome to the Be It Till You See It podcast where we talk about taking messy action, knowing that perfect is boring. I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started.Lesley Logan 0:59  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 supporting convo I had with Jon Ostenson in our last episode. If you haven't yet listened to that interview, feel free to pause this now, go back and listen to that one, and then come back and join us, or listen to this one, and then you can decide if you want to listen that one. I think it's great. Jon has a book. It's really wonderful. It's a very niche topic. It's a nerdy topic. It's one I wanted to have because I don't think entrepreneurs, I'm like, making your own idea is for everybody, but I do think everybody deserves to have the wealth and agency that they want to have in this world and make what they want to make. So I'm excited about it. Brad Crowell 1:30  Well, I thought I really liked, I really liked the conversation. I was very I mean, especially for me, because I am very entrepreneurial, but I appreciated the back and forth. So, yeah, I, I think that it was very revealing. Lesley Logan 1:51  Are you saying it was a great interview? Did I do a good job? Brad Crowell 1:51  I'm saying it was a great interview. Not only that, but I think the information that he's sharing is shocking. He's super smart dude, and I thought, I thought it was very revealing for someone who might be hoping, wishing they could own a business. This was very empowering, because it, it created hope I think. So, yeah, great. Lesley Logan 2:17  I well, you'll, you guys, stay tuned. You'll hear what we're talking about in a second. Today is September 11th, 2025 and it's Patriot Day, which gives us all time to reflect on the devastating terror attacks that took 3000 lives. We commemorate those who we lost, and give thanks to the brave responders who put their lives on the line. Take a moment today to consider what we stand for as a nation, how we can work together to make the world a better place for all. It's a hard day. Brad Crowell 2:39  Yeah, I mean.Lesley Logan 2:40  Especially with 20, with 25 years to reflect on what fucking lies we're told afterwards, and then how we treat the first responders and how fucking hard it was to get their medical bills paid because they're dying from cancer right now. Like.Brad Crowell 2:56  Yeah, it's like, it's like a story that keeps repeating itself where something devastating happens that is wrong and tragic. People die and then motherfuckers in office take advantage of the public's emotional state, and they use it to go do some wrong shit. Lesley Logan 3:18  Go, so seriously, go watch the movie Vice. I happen to be really lucky to be teaching Christian Bale's wife at the time that he was filming that. And so it was a really interesting time, because, like, he was becoming Dick Cheney, which, like, it is a, I mean, of course, he won an, I think he won a bunch of awards for that. And he literally thanked Satan for the inspiration. Brad Crowell 3:41  Yes, he did. Lesley Logan 3:37  And I remember, I remember my client. I remember my client was, my client was just like, I fucking told him not to do that, or something like that. And so anyways, but go watch it, because it, while it's not historical, it is pretty fucking accurate about like, how rich Cheney and these bitches got after doing what they did and using, using the heartbreak, and what people fought with patriotism to go make these fucking wars, and then we did a bunch of bullshit, and then we ruined places. And it just pisses me off, because. Brad Crowell 4:04  Over, over, lies. Lesley Logan 4:09  Lies and so. And also, if you don't believe in September 11th being what it was like, I don't know why you're here, but like, I, I just really.Brad Crowell 4:18  Well, it was, I mean, it was a terrorist attack, no question. But what we did after it, how the public was manipulated, to then go to war for 20 years after, based on literal lies, you know.Lesley Logan 4:30  Yeah, it's, I it's hard because, like, okay, reflecting on what we consider as a nation today, I think, as an I think the people running our nation today reflect something I would never want to be a patriot of.Brad Crowell 4:42  Yeah, and that that's, that's the thing that really frustrates me as a person who, when you read the definition of patriot, I want to be that. That is absolutely, I mean, I consider myself a patriot. But also there's this, there's this frustrating association with angry white men, usually, who don't give a shit about people. And there's so much fear of others associated with it. And there's this ego that's associated with it that.Lesley Logan 5:17  It's, it's so it's so fragile. What they're like, they're thinking is so they are. They're such fragile people. Because they're just like, they're the way that they think, that they're showing strength. And we're like, protesting, they're like, like, making sure that we see the middle finger, and like, just like, and it's like, I have never driven in my entire life, of driving past something, we're talking about this with the protest where I disagree. Brad Crowell 5:39  We used to live by protests all the time, where we lived in L.A., we're literally next to the federal building, so it was like, every weekend, forever.Lesley Logan 5:45  Every weekend, it was like, who's protesting today? And like, there were times I was like, oh, I wonder why. It made me get curious as to, like, what is going on here. It was very fascinating. And it was like, what the fuck like, but I never was like, here's my middle finger to you. It's like, just, you know, move along. Move right along. The fact that you have to make sure I see your face in your lifted stupid truck while you flip me off, it makes you and that makes you feel good. You're like, yeah, I did it to them. I did it like, we were in Idaho, and there was a big ass sign in this guy's house. I was walking by the lake, and it was like, make liberals cry again, and it's like, oh, you think I'm crying. I'm pissed off. Like the tears of the tears are of what we are losing, of course, but like, no, I'm pissed off. James Baldwin, I want to, I want to make sure everyone hears this quote, because I think it's really beautiful, and I think it's this is what being a patriot is. I love America more than any other country in the world, and exactly for this reason, I insist on the right to criticize her perpetually. And I think that, like, this country has so many shortcomings, and no country is perfect. Like, I was listening to Sophia Bush on a podcast recently, and she's like, like, I'm not gonna move because, like, I love this place. I'm gonna fight for her. And so, like, if you moved and whatever, like, I have no judgments for that, but if you're here, like, you have to fight, because we're losing rights. We're losing rights. And it really pisses me off, because in the time of my mother being an adult and married woman, she could not get a credit card until, like, the 80s, right? Like, like, I if you're listening to this and you're just like, la, la, la, I just want to hear about how to be till I see it. Ladies, you are going to lose your ability to have your own bank account. You're gonna lose your ability to have your own vote. And if you think it's not going to happen because, oh, it's not going to happen. It's they want it to happen. And the right people are in power. And I'm tired of being told that Project 2025 is bullshit. It is happening right now. Lesley Logan 5:46  They're more than 50% of the way through completing Project 2025.Lesley Logan 5:48  In the time we're recording this, seven months. Brad Crowell 7:40  Yeah, seven months. And, I mean, you know, if you go through and you actually read the things that are in that platform, they they do want to make single family voting, which is literally taking away the white the rights of women, because they would consider the man the head of the household. Lesley Logan 8:02  And if you think, oh, I'm not married yeah your brother get to vote for you. I don't have a brother, your uncle get to vote for you. Like they will find a man if and when this type of life existed, they would find someone in the government to become your vote. You don't get there's no getting out of this. You don't get one.Brad Crowell 8:17  Yeah, and, and, and the people in power are Tweeting about that stuff, literally right now, right like they're they're putting it out there. They're trying to normalize the idea so that when they go and try to do it, it doesn't seem like it's as big of a deal as it actually fucking is. Lesley Logan 8:32  So you know what I think patriotism is right now, babe, it is, find a protest. I know you're busy. I know you have fucked tons, going on. We are, too. Find one. Go for an hour. Go yell. Go meet friends. Go meet people who are different than you. It's, these protests people, some people are fighting for their their gay marriages to still exist. Some people are fighting further to not be war. Some people are fighting for God. Some people are fighting to like for the Epstein list. I don't care what gets you out there, but like you think that this, that what they're gonna do is not gonna affect your life, it is. It is. Brad Crowell 8:55  Yeah, go, go check out individual, indivisible.org, for a local, you know, event, or how you can get involved near you. So, you know, we're gonna move on, and we're gonna actually. Lesley Logan 9:11  Well, people like this, Brad, we've been told, hi, Vicky.Brad Crowell 9:14  I think it's so important y'all and and it's like this, I know that we this isn't a podcast about politics, but it is. Lesley Logan 9:22  But also, but also. Brad Crowell 9:23  Being it until you see it is a pod, it is about like politics, and it is a part of every single element of our life, even if you have the perfect life, quote, unquote, it's because of politics that you are able to live the way that you live. And what's happening right now is such fast, dramatic change in our countries. Like, historically, there's so much change happening so quickly there, that when we wake up, you know, in even six months from now, it's going to be like, there we are at the brink of things. Lesley Logan 9:53  I don't even know how we're going to make it to the midterms. That's my fear. That's my fear, and I put it out right now, but I will just say, even if you're like, less. I just want a homestead. I want to be like tradwife. The fact that you get to choose that is because of politics. So that is fine if that's what you want to choose to do. But do not think that everybody wants to do that and that that should be the choice for everybody. So I think that like that is why we have to get involved. And if you are a woman, you are political. Your existence in any room is political has been and if you really want to get fired up, go read the book, She Caused A Riot. Go look at history. Like fucking Socrates, his teacher was a woman. Did you know that? The reason you don't know that is because politics, they didn't want you to know that there was leaders in this world.Brad Crowell 10:39  Politics and religion. Lesley Logan 10:39  Fuck that. Anyways. Brad Crowell 10:39  Frustrating. Lesley Logan 10:39  I'm pissed off, but we're currently in the U.K. We're in the U.K. and then when we get home, well, we're home for a couple of weeks, and we gotta see my best friends and come visit, and then we're gonna go to Chicagoland for Pilates On Tour with Balanced Body. I'm doing the Joe's Gyms there. That's in Burr Ridge. If there's any spots left, you should snag one, because it's super, super fun, and we have a huge party coming with all of our agency eLevate OPC members, then we're gonna be in Cambodia. That's also in October. You can still join like you can join last minute. Guess what? Flight planes will sell a seat as long as there is one. So you can get the fuck out of town and retreat a little bit and be in a different world and get some empathy for what it's like to live in different places.Brad Crowell 11:21  Yeah, and experience a different culture and see that not everybody.Lesley Logan 11:24  If you are worried. Sorry, I cut you off. If you're worried about being an American in a different country, let me tell you, they see what's happening right now, and they are, in Cambodia, they are sad for us. They are scared for us. They know that they know where we're headed, and they're sad for us.Brad Crowell 11:25  Yeah, I was just gonna say with our experience recently about trying to cross borders and getting stuck and turned around and not being able to, it wasn't the it wasn't the attendees of the events that we were not able to attend who were angry with us. It was the border guard who was, you know, unfortunately, misinformed and, you know, and angry. And he's angry because the border guards of our country were turning away people for no reason. So he could just, that's the only power he had, was to turn away, you know, Americans for no reason. And we just kind of got caught up in that. So there's a lot of, there is a lot of frustration, but it's not from the people, right, in this country, it's like, you know? So, so I would say, you know, yeah, it did feel a little bit stressful to you know, as we were approaching, once we got there and started talking to them, it became clear that that there was just silly reasons being turned away but, but even in that, like the you know, the guy wasn't like, he wasn't an asshole about it. So, but I it was really frustrating. If you're worried about something like that, when you come to a place like Cambodia, you apply for your visa ahead of time. You will know before you arrive if they're going to turn you around, because you'll have the right paperwork.Lesley Logan 13:06  And also you're we're all going as tourists. The Canadian thing, we were going into work. Brad Crowell 13:11  That's true. Lesley Logan 13:11  And that was it, we'll have to do a whole episode on it, because it's a longer, longer conversation. That being said, you go to. Brad Crowell 13:18  But as a tourist, they want a tourist. They want that because. Lesley Logan 13:21  That's how they're that's literally how their country survives. Brad Crowell 13:24  Yep, it's how well, it's how the city that we're going to, that's how the economy there survives, from tourism. So, you know, and they are very aware of that, so. Lesley Logan 13:32  Yes, they want us there. They're so welcoming, they're so kind, and you can see what it's like to be living in a different part of this world. I think that's so important. I think one of the biggest reasons why people in this, in the U.S., are so fucking scared of people of a different color is because they've never, they've never gone and seen how they live. Yeah, you know, go get worldly. You will have more empathy, crowsnestretreats.com. After we leave Cambodia, we're going to be in Singapore. We're going to teach at a beautiful studio there, and then we're gonna see the Botanical Gardens. And then we're home. We're home for the whole month of November. Oh my God, no, Brad, I'm not going camping anywhere. We're home for the whole month of November. Brad Crowell 14:10  But my parents are coming. We're gonna go camp. Lesley Logan 14:12  No, we're, that is not why they're coming to visit us. Help make an, help you with the roof or something. And then October, we're gonna be on our winter tour. And if you want to make sure you hear about that first, go to opc.me/events, opc.me/events, because our people on our waitlist will get the access to the tickets first. And the winter tour does have cities that sell out in 24 hours. Okay, we have to get to our interview, but we do have an audience question. So Brad, go for it.Brad Crowell 14:37  Yes. Okay. DMK asks on Instagram, hey Lesley, my footwork question is this, what cue or cues do you like to use during footwork? I'm sorry, if footwork students, very confused. They made a mistake on the word here.Lesley Logan 14:42  What cues do you like to use, if during footwork, students are using it like a leg press? Brad Crowell 14:56  Oh, sorry. Okay. Lesley Logan 14:57  Yeah, thank you. Brad Crowell 14:59  Well, I just read that wrong. That's all.Lesley Logan 15:00  It's okay, it's all good. So.Brad Crowell 15:04  First off, we're clearly talking about. Lesley Logan 15:06  Footwork on the Reformer. Yeah. DMK, this, I hate cues.Brad Crowell 15:13  Well, hold on, let's explain what the problem is. What is the problem that she's experiencing with her class? Lesley Logan 15:17  The problem that she's probably seen is they're, they're, they're pushing out and in, like, it's a leg press machine, like, it's like a leg machine, and they're making it only a leg exercise versus a full body exercise, right? And then the other thing is that they're not using all the muscles of their legs, because they're just, like, shoving their knees straight. And they're probably pausing at the top, which is what you do on a leg press machine. And then kind of, hopefully, on a leg press machine, you're resisting. But a lot of people just kind of, like, close the the weights, or just like, kind of float in or ride the springs in. So here's the deal, DMK, my teacher, Jay Grimes, and the teachers I studied with him, talked a lot about how Joe didn't really correct during footwork. You use footwork to tell you what's kind of going on in the person's body. So I also happen to like three or four springs on for footwork. So some people think that, like heavy springs means they're gonna use it like a leg press machine, but ideally you want those heavy springs to warm the body up. Two lightest springs can actually affect someone's lower back, if they have a tight lower back, or they're not getting the connection, and the warm up for what's to come. So I do like three to four springs. That being said, what you can do for those people who want to make it a leg press machine, take all the springs off, go down to one light spring and see what happens. They're going to fly off. And you're like, yeah, you actually have to push into the foot bar the whole time, even as you come in. So I love a one spring, because it kind of helps teach the actual movement, and then load the springs up. If you take my fast workshop, I think you can get it on our OPC website. You'll see how I explain how to use especially with arches and heels to do that. The other thing I would say is ask them, if they are opening the front of the hips or opening the back of the knees. What is their intention? Meaning, the, when you focus on opening the knee joint, you're a leg press machine. When you focus on opening the front of the hips, you're making this move from your center. I am looking, I actually don't care people's knees go straight. I'm looking at, can they move their thigh away from their center and open the front of their hips and then pull that back in. So I'm kind of looking at that, but if they don't do those things, the footwork is just really telling me how they're actually moving. And I have to pick other exercises to assist. So other ways to help them understand that's not like press machine would be doing leg springs. Single leg springs, both leg springs, footwork on the Tower is gonna be really helpful, because that's a whole different plane. And so like, find different exercises that get your point across. Ask them what they're feeling and then take them back to the Reformer and say, find that feeling here.Lesley Logan 17:39  Great. Love it. That's the best cue you could do. Lesley Logan 17:50  There you go. Brad Crowell 17:50  I love it. Great question, DMK. Lesley Logan 17:52  Thanks, DMK. Brad Crowell 17:52  If you have a question, just text us. 310-905-5534, 310-905-5534 or you can actually send your question in through, beitpod.com/questions, beitpod.com/questions.Lesley Logan 18:07  That's where you can also send your wins in, too. I want your wins, people. Brad Crowell 18:14  We want your wins. Let's do it. All right. Stick around. We'll be right back. We're actually going to talk about Jon Ostenson next. Lesley Logan 18:20  Finally. Brad Crowell 18:22  All right, let's talk about Jon Ostenson. An expert in franchising and based out of Atlanta, Georgia, Jon Ostenson left his W2 job eight years ago, after years in the corporate world, to become president of Shelf Genie, a large franchise system where he says he fell in love with the franchise model, which he explained amazingly and in detail during the interview. So if you didn't get a chance to listen to that, I would, I would very much encourage you to go listen to it. It was super informative. He is, Jon, is now the founder of FranBridge Consulting and author of the bestselling book, Non-Food Franchising, which, Lesley, I know you read, I've seen it on our table out there. Jon helps clients find suitable franchise opportunities from over 600 different brands outside of the fast food industry. His mission is to guide individuals who want to own a business but may feel risk-averse or lack a, quote unquote, genius idea connecting with them with proven scalable franchise model, and here's the, models, and here's the crazy thing, this is where I was like, oh my God, this guy's brilliant, his services to you are free. How are they free, you ask, because he sees what you're trying to do then he goes to the franchise, the parent company, and he says, pay me, and I'll help these guys succeed doing your franchise. Yeah, pretty brilliant. I was like, wow, that's amazing. So.Lesley Logan 19:44  I love it. I love it so much because it's, like, it's completely risk-averse for you, like, and the reason I thought this, I really wanted to dig in with this guy, because I don't even understand how you get into a franchise, and. Brad Crowell 19:58  Well, it makes me want to get into franchises. Lesley Logan 20:00  I know. And we just met someone who's like, all he does is all these different franchises and and so I just like it because, like, first of all, we talked a lot about how you could, like, work and have a franchise. Like, it's like, there's like, there's all these different ways you can do it. So, anyways.Brad Crowell 20:16  Yeah, he said a lot of franchisors, the people on the franchise, still might have a day job, because. Lesley Logan 20:21  Yeah. Aren't they a franchisee? Brad Crowell 20:24  Oh, sorry, franchisee. You're, you're right. The franchisor is the parent company. The franchisee is the person who's, who's like, purchase one of the locations or whatever. So the franchisee as if you could still be working your normal life and have a franchise, obviously, then it's about the team that you put in place to make sure that they can run it without you having to be there. But, but this guy was talking about having franchises all over the country, so he's clearly not in them operating them. Lesley Logan 20:51  Yeah. But also. No. And so you can be an owner-operator. He has, he, like, his book has got a lot of this stuff in it, if you want to, like, dig in even more and then chat with him, but like, here's what I. Brad Crowell 20:51  And by the way, we're not just talking about Pilates franchises. Lesley Logan 21:02  No, he is, like, there's so many, there's some out there. And also, like, I personally, I personally don't want to grab someone else's Pilates franchises, because, the way I like to teach, I probably would want to make my own, but maybe I want to get one that's in the like, maybe that's like a red light sauna space or something that goes along with what I do, that's like in the thing that I am interested in, in life, like I'm already. Brad Crowell 21:23  Or salt path, float, float, yeah, floating, yeah.Lesley Logan 21:27  By the way, there is a float place that I'm sure, is a franchise in Nashville that I'm like, how the fuck do we get it out here in our neighborhood? Because I'm tired of driving 30 minutes to go fucking float, I'm pissed off by the time I get back. Anyways, we just need, I don't know, a few thousands of dollars, and then we can do it, babe. I think, here's where our next adventure is. Brad Crowell 21:45  (inaudible) crazy is you said that, like, a lot of people, will start a franchise with maybe, you know, $50,000 to $100,000 down, and the rest of it is actually from a an SBA loan, because the SBA and the banks believe in the franchise model so much that they are willing to effectively front the rest of the startup capital. And I was like, wow, I never thought about that. That's amazing. Because, and like, you know, $50,000 is still a shitload of money. I understand that. But it also isn't a million dollars, right? Lesley Logan 22:18  And also, like, anyone who wants to start to make legitimate money, you have to stop thinking that $50,000 is a lot of money, start thinking it's possible, that you can get it, that there's a way, because I remember thinking that, oh, my God, it's so much money. And let me tell you the long as you think 50,000 is so much money you're gonna have, it's gonna feel so far away when you start to think like, of course I still have to find $50,000 you, go listen to that podcast we have with the guy with the question marks, I forget his name, anyways, go and find it, but let's just talk about things I loved that he said. Okay, let me get into my notes. He said, you're in business for yourself, but not by yourself. And I love this, because so many of the people I meet, they're like, so lucky that you and Brad, like, are married and like, you work together. And our biggest response is, like, not everyone should do what we do. So if you want to be in business for yourself, but not by yourself, instead of working with your partner, why don't you get a partner? And it can be a franchise like, I think that's really cool.Brad Crowell 23:09  And different franchisors offer different support, and that's one of the conversations that that you could have with a person like Jon, where you might be like, hey, I am innately a marketer, but I'm terrible at operations, right? Then he, he might say, okay, well, this franchise, you know, whatever, they can help. Or, or conversely, I hate marketing. I'm really, that's not my jam. I need a franchise that will create the content for me that I can just use to put out there. So they're different, like, corporate offices will do different things for the business to support the franchisee and but, but, but as a as a layman, how am I supposed to know? But Jon gets to see hundreds of franchises. Lesley Logan 23:53  I think that's what's so cool. Is like, if you know your strengths, then you can talk to Jon and figure out, like, what are the different franchises that I'm interested in that are, like, in an area I want to be in, and then, okay, of those, which one matches my strengths and my weaknesses? Because you don't want to have something that's like, great at marketing and you're great at marketing, but like, has the systems are not there for the operations, like things like that, but also the franchiser does a lot for you. And remember, it's a proven business model, so like, it's already figured like, it's already thrown ideas at the wall, figured out what works, and then you just get to rinse and repeat that. And I really, I really like that for people who want to create their own schedule, create their own impact, be part of the community, but are risk-averse, you know? And by the way, I get it, we just.Lesley Logan 24:39  I'm risk-averse, too. Lesley Logan 24:39  Oh my god, you really are. Brad Crowell 24:41  But in a measurable way. But it's like, I wouldn't want to go, just go throw money away and hope, hope that something works. Imagine being able to follow a systematic approach where they figured out all the kinks in the business. Like, like the business that Lesley and I run that we've created, it has taken us a lot longer to get to where we are today. It's literally 10 years now, 10 years of running this business, yeah, 10 years of trying to figure things out, making mistakes, doing all this stuff, when with a franchise model, there are so many less mistakes to make, because hypothetically, they've already made the mistakes for you and figured it out and put together the playbook that you can simply follow the plan, the process, right? I really loved when he talked about business ownership is really hard. It takes a lot of work. And, yeah, that's that's very true, too. And he said, if it was easy, everyone would be a business owner, and what he what so, so, of all the pros that we've been talking about with a franchise model, it still does take a lot of work, and it's it takes focus and and the biggest thing he mentioned was the people who fail don't follow the plan, right? And Jon goes, calls up the franchise corporate office and goes, yo, what happened here? What's going on? And the franchisor said, you know, would say to Jon, well, look, we did everything we could to support this person, but they didn't listen. They just didn't fucking listen, you know. And that doesn't mean that, like, there won't still be challenges, because every single location is different, every market is different, every opportunity. And what I mean that, I mean different franchise model is different, you know. So it still will take work, but you don't have to do it alone, you know. And that that's amazing, you know. So, so anyway, he doesn't sugarcoat franchises but he said it's a lot easier and a lot more predictable. Lesley Logan 26:40  His book, actually, like, talks about, like, like, kind of like, if it's for you, you know, and this is where like, it, for us to follow the rules, right, with you, you have to know, okay, we're gonna do this thing with this company. We're gonna follow their rules, which means I'm gonna hire someone to go follow their rules, because I am unemployable, so I will probably fuck him up, but you have to know that about yourself, you know. Such a cool dude. He also was like, because I told him I have an idea, I still have an idea that I might want to, like happen and make, and franchise and he's like, just give me a call. Run it by me. And I'm like, amazing. I just love how generous people can be. Brad Crowell 27:18  Yeah, yeah. Well, stick around, we're going to talk about how generous Jon is with his Be It Action Items, in just a minute. Brad Crowell 27:25  All right, so finally, let's talk about those Be It Action Items. What bold, executable, intrinsic or targeted action items can we take away from your convo with Jon Ostenson? He said he really encourages people who are interested in franchising or the concept of franchising, to just simply explore, that there's no downside, there's no cost to learn about how it works, what it is, is it even plausible for me? Is this something that I could do while still doing my life? He said it's super free to work with them, which we already talked about at the very beginning of this convo here. FranBridge consulting, his company helps clients navigate and find top available opportunities among over 600 different non-food franchise brands and. Lesley Logan 28:08  We love that. I do not want to deal with food. Brad Crowell 28:10  Well, he's he's not, he's not opposed to food, but it also, apparently, just adds a whole lot more variables in there. Lesley Logan 28:16  I used to work at a coffee shop, and it was small business-owned, and I'm going to tell you right now, it is,.Brad Crowell 28:21  Well, that's different than a franchise, because a franchise is a system, so small business-owned might make things just complicated because they're making shit up.Lesley Logan 28:28  Food, food, there's, like, the things you have to do to prevent rats.Brad Crowell 28:32  Right, there's just a lot more variables when it comes to food. There's also a lot of more licensing and a lot more, like red tape with like, local state government stuff, you know. So anyway, he explained that what I already mentioned is that, how does he get paid? He gets paid by the franchise business, the corporate, right? He, you're not necessarily paying him directly. So, I mean, it seems like an absolute win-win.Lesley Logan 28:57  Just worth having the conversation like there's no, there's no harm in it, you know. Brad Crowell 29:00  Yeah. What about you? Lesley Logan 29:01  So I love that he said, activity breeds activity. Yes. It's like a body in motion, stays in motion. Yesterday, we just got into town, you know, at midnight on Friday night. I guess it's Saturday morning. Anyways, our friend, my she saw me at the gym, and she's like, you're like, the most consistent creature. And I'm like, I don't if I was to not be consistent, like, like, if I used travel as an excuse, I would never be consistent. So activity breeds activity. A body motion stays in motion. Explain, it's the idea he saw play out in his career and life, that whenever he gets off the sidelines he starts moving to Option A or B. That's that, then that's when option C comes out of left field. He says, good things happen when you're in motion. And it's so true. Like, it's so true. You know, even we got sidelined with the fucking Canada thing, we pivoted and kept going. And, like, because we did that, other things happened, that the dominoes kept going. And like, these other opportunities came around. And I think, like. Brad Crowell 29:53  Yeah, we met a whole studio we never would have met. Lesley Logan 29:55  We totally did. Could be a pop-up someday. But at any rate, like, you know, you, you'd be surprised what happens. Too often, we get we get sidelined, and we're like, I'm gonna sit over here. Keep going, take another step. And if you hear, as you hear in the podcast, it says action is the antidote to fear. So anyways, I'm Lesley Logan. Brad Crowell 30:16  And I'm Brad Crowell. Lesley Logan 30:17  Thank you so much for listening to our podcast. We love your reviews. Leave us more reviews.

Meet Gail Seiler, a hospital hostage survivor held against her will by a Texas hospital during the biggest psyop and con job in modern American history, better known as Covid-19. After being admitted she was basically denied many life-saving medications while being prescribed deadly drugs which were on the ‘approved' protocol list. Her doctor told her to prepare to die. Gail or her husband, Brad, retired military weren't having it. Brad went in to save his wife only after calling local police on the hospital while the hospital called the same police department on Brad. One can only imagine which side the police took. Gail ultimately survived and is now the founder and champion of Betrayal Project USA where she and her team advocate for hospital victims, widows and widowers who unfortunately suffered greatly during the plandemic.Keep up with Gail athttps://betrayalprojectusa.orgYou can take advantage of one of the best holistic health conferences anywhere and enter Discount Promo Code – GRIT for 30% off all My EHI Aloha courses and Healing for the A.G.E.S. events and replays by visitinghttps://myehialoha.org/#GRIT--------------------------Check out all of our vendors at: https://patriotswithgrit.com/patriot-partners/ SPONSORS FOR THIS VIDEO❤️ Cardio Miracle – One Drink.

Ever wondered if that “toxic” label is being thrown around too loosely—or if there's something deeper happening in your relationships? In this episode of The Bossy Big Sis, Brandi sits down with Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist (and host of the Soul Grit Podcast), Ann Taylor McNeese, to talk about those hard-but-necessary conversations around narcissism, family dynamics, boundaries, and faith. This is not your typical clinical chat—think coffee date with girlfriends, sprinkled with wisdom, laughter, and a whole lot of real talk about what it means to navigate messy relationships while still guarding your heart. Inside this episode we cover: The difference between difficult people vs. something more serious Why boundaries aren't about controlling others (and what they really are) How “triggers” show up in everyday life and how to stop letting them run the show The sneaky ways we over-function in our families and what that costs us How faith reshapes the way we navigate toxic dynamics and find peace This conversation will leave you nodding along, reflecting on your own family patterns, and maybe rethinking the way you approach conflict altogether. Pull up a chair, grab your coffee (or your protein shake), and let's dig in and you just might shift how you see your relationships.

As a mom navigating the chaotic world of youth sports, I'm overwhelmed by the endless apps, group chats, and logistical nightmares. Managing my kids' sports schedules feels like running a Fortune 500 company from my car, with nothing but a team hat as compensation. I've found myself drowning in multiple sports apps like TeamSnap and SportsEngine, constantly worried about missing crucial information about uniforms, practice times, and tournament availability. To maintain my sanity, I've implemented some game-changing strategies: a color-coded wall calendar, limiting group chat responses, and most importantly, delegating responsibilities to my kids. I'm teaching them to take ownership of their sports commitments, just like I did when I played sports without smartphones. The key is simplifying the chaos, staying calm, and remembering that we moms don't have to carry the entire load. We're in this together, surviving on iced coffee and the hope that someday, coaches will unite and use just one app. Tips: Otter2 minutes ago Thought for 2 seconds Here are Scottie's suggestions for managing sports chaos: Wall Calendar Strategy Get a large white erase board Color-code by kid, sport, and life activities Put everything in one visible spot Update at the beginning of each month Text Chain Management Stop replying to every group chat Catch up with parents in person at tournaments Reduce digital communication stress Delegate to Kids Have kids ask coaches about practice times Encourage kids to write their own schedules Make kids responsible for uniform preparation Let them manage team expectations Simplification Techniques Give some responsibilities to kids Ask partners to help with app management Reduce digital overwhelm Focus on personal communication Mindset Shifts Take radical responsibility for personal wellness Practice deep breathing to manage anxiety Recognize you don't have to do everything Understand that your calm is contagious to kids Practical Tips Prepare uniforms the night before Communicate directly with coaches Keep a backup of all uniforms in a bag Stay organized and proactive Learn more about your ad choices.

The Calf of Man, just off the southern tip of the Isle of Man. There's a decayed building there. And on its wall hangs a strange thing. A life preserver—round, red and white, worn by time. It made me wonder: What do we leave behind to save the ones who come after us?” This is Quest & Chorus #306 0:21 - We Banjo 3 "Alive With You" from Open The Road 3:14 - WELCOME TO QUEST & CHORUS Where every place has a story, every story has a song, and every song is a step in the quest.

In each episode, you will get a clue to unlock a secret reward. And at the end of the season, you will combine all of those clues to unlock an even bigger amazing reward.

We don't see everything. Instead we stay in one area. We get to know the region through its culture, history, and legends. You can join me with an auditory and visual adventure through podcasts, blogs, videos, and photos. In 2026, you can join me for a Celtic Invasion of Galicia in Spain. Sign to the Celtic Invasion Vacations mailing list at CelticInvasion.com. Let's begin the… QUEST & CHORUS of CALF OF MAN The Calf of Man is a small island located about a half mile off the southern tip of the Isle of Man. It is a protected national park that is part of the Manx National Heritage. It is home to large number of species of birds, including some colonies that migrate there. Around 33 species of seabirds breed on the islet annually, including  Manx Shearwater, Kittiwake, Razorbill and Shag. Every year, I take a small group of people to explore our Celtic heritage. It's called Celtic Invasion Vacations. Next year, we're going to Galicia in Spain. That's one of the most-obscure Celtic nations. But in the summer of 2024, we did a Celtic Invasion of the Isle of Man. On the invasion, we took the Wild Life and Scenic Trip around Calf of Man with Shona Boat Trips. They are one of the small boat operators that give tours. Desi was our guide. He lived on the island for a year. We didn't get to explore much of the land. Because the Calf of Man is raw. The kind of place the sea keeps for itself. There was a building by the shore. We couldn't inspect it during our fifteen minutes on the ground, but it looked like just the bones of a dwelling, stone clinging to stone. And from its wall, there was one oddity that stood out in the stark landscape. A life preserver. That's wild to think about. A life preserver is a tool meant to save someone in the future, and it was hanging on the ruins of a home from the past. It reminded me of Miranda, from the movie, Serenity. A planet left behind. A warning not given. A silence that cost too much. That building, that place… it feels like Miranda. Not because it's dead. But because someone left it—hoping it might save someone else. In the first episode of Firefly, Malcolm Reynolds is fighting in Serenity Valley. A soldier standing next to him is terrified that they are gonna die. Mal tells him, “we're too pretty to die.” He's filled with so much hope. A moment later he watches in horror as his air support leaves. He watches his Angels fly away as the soldier next to him is shot down. Two-thirds of the Independents died in the Battle of Serenity Valley. Two-thirds of Mal's fellow soldiers did not make it home. And yet he lived. He was preserved. MUCH LIKE THE SECRET WORD OF THE DAY. WHAT WAS PRESERVED? Were you ever left behind? How did you move forward? Music is my safe place. That's one of the reasons I wrote “Serenity Valley Waltz”. I wanted a song for survivors. For those who were left behind. To not just face the future, but to also take care of the next generation. This is why I spend so much time thinking about sustainability and my music career. Are we making a life preserver for the next generation? For my daughters? I've been reading the book Ministry of the Future by Kim Stanley Robinson. He does an amazing job at illustrating the tipping point of climate change. When we HAVE to start doing something about it. The very first chapters of the book lay out a horror that brought tears to my eyes. Especially when I imagined what my children will most likely face at some point. We can use that life preserver right now by changing how we do stuff right now. And perhaps music can be our guiding light.  Our healer. Our hope. “Serenity Valley Waltz” is a song all about healing and hope. It's about overcoming our nightmares and looking out across the ocean from the Isle of Man and seeing a better future for all of us. This song is for the places that hold pain. But also for the objects that remind us to stay afloat. That round red and white ring… it didn't save a life today. But it might tomorrow. This is Serenity Valley Waltz.” 16:19 - NEWS Marc Gunn “Serenity Valley Waltz” from Selcouth If you want to learn more about “Serenity Valley Waltz”, visit the shownotes. I did an episode where I shared the inspiration beyond the song. You can also find a link to the discussion that Mikey Mason and I had when we wrote the song as part of the In the ‘Verse podcast. Poll: What are your favorite songs on Selcouth? Merch: Buy Selcouth Thank you for standing on the shore with me today. The Calf of Man may be forgotten, but its story, like yours, is worth remembering. Next week, we climb to Tintagel, the seat of Camelot, to raise a glass to myths and farewells. Until then… Leave something behind.  Not because you're going… But because someone might come looking. 19:30 - CREDITS Thanks for listening to Quest & Chorus.

September is Falls Prevention Awareness month and in this episode we wanted to shed more light on this important cause. Unexpected falls can cause much more than just physical damage. There are many mental and emotional aspects that come into play not just for the person who experienced a fall but also surrounding friends and family. Falls can occur at any age but the most vulnerable are older adults or those with disabilities. Luckily there are a few easy things that you can do to minimize the risk of a fall to remain safe in your home or living space. In This Episode You Will Learn: 1). What Falls Prevention Awareness Month is and why it has become so important to recognize each year. 2). Why it's important to highlight Falls Prevention Month in all independent and assisted living facilities. 3). The importance of including easy to follow balance exercises each week in your regular exercise routines which help build strength and stability. 4). How certain medications can cause problems with balance which can lead to falls and other physical complications and why it's important to discuss this with your doctor. 5). Why it's important to make sure any assistive devices like a walker or cane are regularly checked so they don't break or collapse which can lead to a dangerous fall. /// We hope the tips in this episode are helpful to you or someone you know who may have experienced a fall. Making sure to take a few extra steps in securing your surroundings to avoid the risk of a fall will go a long way to a safer, healthier, more independent life for you and your loved ones.

Hey! Welcome back on this beautiful September day!  If you are new here,  I'm Monica and I love to simplify and streamline everything and I enjoy sharing all I learn with you, so grab a cup of coffee and enjoy! After a summer of probably saying yes to too many things and feeling exhausted, I realized I needed to be reminded of my own advice to keep things simple with less stress.  If you know me at all, which you probably know me pretty well if you have listened to any amount of podcasts here, but I'm sure you know I like to do all the things, I love to learn and sometimes that comes with getting too much on my plate.   If you want to reduce some of your mental load & enjoy a slow and intentional life, the first step is to create it by centering your life around what is important to you.  For me, it is my faith, family, and time for being present.  To me, time is our precious commodity and I don't want to get to the end of life and wish I would have done things differently.  Depending on what season you are in, living intentionally may look different than slow living, but you have to know what you really want life to look like and make a plan so you can stop spiraling out of control and feel like you are going backwards.   Next, you need to start saying no to some of what you are doing.  If you are saying yes to please others or just because you think you are supposed to do something, you will burn out fast.  I remember when my kids were in elementary school, I thought that I should volunteer just because I stayed at home (because most people done understand what WFH moms do!), but I whenever it came to going, I just dreaded it because I had so many other things I needed to do.  I have always had side businesses as I'm not someone that ever sits around, so I have to plan my time carefully.   I have learned to say, thanks for thinking of me, but right now I am unable to …..whatever it is.  You don't have to say any more or try to make up excuses.  Just imaging what all the things you will be able to say yes to because of the no's you had to tell people!   And the last way you can lessen your mental load is to declutter.  There is a direct correlation with mental stress and clutter, so make sure you are clearing spaces in your home.  Since we have moved into our home 2 years ago, we have done so mych outside, but I still have totes with my hobbies and it bothers me everytime i see those totes because it is something I just haven't had a chance to get to yet.  As my business has grown, it is something that got put on the back burner!  I know when I have clutter on the counter or around our home, it makes such a difference in how stressed I am.  If you do 1 thing today, start with clearing off your cupboard and getting the dishes done every night.  After a week or 2 add in another thing and try to clear your space you are in most of the time first.  You will wake up feeling much better when you go to make your coffee and don't have the stress of the mess hanging over your head.     I want you to start implementing this right away and let me know how it goes for you!     Remember Keep it simple and have a great week!    Love ya friend!

As a TriDot Triathlon Coach, I've seen firsthand how predictive analytics can transform training outcomes. Today, we'll break down the development, race-specific, and taper phases of training, explore the importance of strength and mobility, and give you actionable tips for race rehearsals, race week workouts, and pacing strategies across different race distances. Let's get into it!” Training Phases with RunDot Development Phase (April) “This is where the foundation is built. The development phase focuses on aerobic capacity, muscular endurance, and overall durability. RunDot uses your biometric and performance data to personalize your training load—so you're not just following a generic plan, you're following your plan. Expect to see: Zone 2 endurance runs to build aerobic efficiency. Hill repeats and strides to improve strength and form. Aerobic intervals that challenge your cardiovascular system without overloading it. This phase is also where strength and mobility work are critical. Think squats, lunges, planks, and dynamic mobility drills. These movements help prevent injury and improve your running economy.” Race-Specific Phase (Lauren) “Now we shift gears. The race-specific phase is all about sharpening your race pace and simulating race conditions. RunDot adjusts your workouts based on your predicted race performance, so you're training at the right intensity. Key workouts include: Tempo runs to dial in your race pace. Long runs with race pace segments to simulate race fatigue. Intervals that mimic the demands of your target race. This is also the time for race rehearsals. Practice everything—your gear, your nutrition, your hydration strategy. If you're racing trails, get on technical terrain. If it's a road race, practice on similar surfaces and elevation profiles.” Taper Phase (Rich) “The taper phase is where the magic happens. You're reducing volume to shed fatigue while maintaining intensity to stay sharp. RunDot's predictive engine ensures you're not tapering too much or too little. During taper: Keep intensity with short intervals and strides. Reduce volume gradually. Focus on mental preparation—visualize your race, review your pacing strategy, and trust your training.” Strength & Mobility: The Unsung Heroes (Lauren) “Strength and mobility work aren't optional—they're essential. They: Prevent overuse injuries. Improve running efficiency. Enhance power and stride mechanics. RunDot integrates strength sessions based on your recovery status and training load. So if you're feeling fatigued, it'll dial back the intensity. If you're fresh, it'll push you a bit more.” Race Week Workouts & Shakeout Runs (April) “Race week is all about staying loose and confident. Here's a sample structure: Monday–Wednesday: Easy runs with strides, light strength work. Thursday–Friday: Short intervals or race pace efforts—30 to 60 seconds. Saturday: Shakeout run—15 to 20 minutes easy with a few strides. Sunday: Race day! Shakeout runs help reduce anxiety, loosen up your muscles, and reinforce your rhythm and cadence.” Race Pacing Tips by Distance 5K - Rich Go out strong but controlled. Settle into pace by the first mile. Finish with a kick. Use strides and short intervals in taper week to stay sharp. 10K - Lauren Controlled first half, push the second half. Practice pacing in race-specific workouts. Don't go out too fast—let your fitness shine in the back half. Half Marathon - April Aim for even pacing or a slight negative split. Long runs with race pace segments are key. Fuel early and consistently. Full Marathon - Rich Start conservatively—don't chase pace early. Stay steady through the middle miles. Prepare mentally for the final 10K. Practice fueling during long runs to avoid bonking. Trail vs Road Racing - Lauren Trail: Focus on effort over pace. Practice technical terrain and elevation changes. Road: Dial in cadence and pacing. Use flat intervals to simulate race conditions. Closing Thoughts - Rich “RunDot by Predictive Fitness is a game-changer. It takes the guesswork out of training and helps you peak at the right time. Whether you're chasing a PR or finishing your first race, trust the process, stay consistent, and enjoy the journey. Get Gritty Tip: What's Your Success Criteria?  One of the biggest mindset traps athletes (and high achievers in general) fall into is measuring success by what hasn't been accomplished yet—what Dan Sullivan and Dr. Benjamin Hardy call living in “the gap.” The way out is creating a Success Criteria List, which shifts your focus from what's missing to what's meaningful. Here's the challenge: Write down three to five criteria that define success for YOU—right now, in this season. Make them simple, tangible, and personal. For example: I'm successful when I show up consistently for my workouts. I'm successful when I recover well and prioritize sleep. I'm successful when I enjoy at least one workout each week with friends or teammates. Notice how none of these depend on a finish time or podium. Instead, they anchor you in daily wins that compound over time. When you measure against your own list, you gain confidence, resilience, and perspective—no matter what the scoreboard says. Action Item: Take five minutes today to craft your own Success Criteria List. Post it where you'll see it daily—on your fridge, in your training log, or on your phone. Each time you check off a criteria, you're stacking wins. Over time, this list becomes your proof that you're already making progress—and that you're firmly in “the gain.” TriDot Workout of the Week: Stamina Ride Speaking of putting in the work, April, this week's featured workout is the Long Ride, or Stamina Ride. This workout goes out to Caroline and Stephanie who are getting ready to do the Boulder Century on September 7th. We're rooting for you. I also did my own version of this on Monday, and drove out to Canon City, Colorado and road some incredible trails including the aptly named Shiv, Redemption. And the Great Escape trails. It was as great as a mental challenge as it was physical, which is why the Stamina Ride is so important. You'll start with a warmup: 10 minutes in Zone 2 with 3 x 30-second spinups and 3 x 1-minute efforts in Zone 4. Then the main set—3 x 12 minutes at Zone 4 with 5 minutes recovery, 1 x 10 minutes at Zone 2, and 10 x 10 minutes at Zone 3 with 2 minutes recovery. Keep all recoveries and balance of time in Zone 2. Here's the key—when you're in those longer stamina sessions, stay in your race position as if you're racing. Sit up to stretch if you need, then get back down and dial in. Keep your cadence steady: Zone 2 and 3 efforts at 90+ rpm, Zone 4 efforts at 80 rpm. And remember—aim to make the last repeat as strong as the first. What do you think about the Stamina ride, Rich? Anything else to add? What I really love about this stamina ride is how it mimics the demands of long-course racing. Those multiple 10-minute Zone 3 pushes let you sit right on that edge—where it's uncomfortable, but still sustainable—just like in a 70.3, full IRONMAN, or Century Ride. You're teaching your body and mind how to hold strong at race effort, manage the discomfort, and then back off just enough to go the distance. This one showed up for me last week, and I also have a century ride this weekend.  It's the perfect prep to build the resilience you need for long days in the saddle. Now, workouts like the Stamina Ride teach us grit, focus, and the ability to stay locked in for the long haul. But triathlon isn't just about the grind—it's also about enjoying the ride, laughing a little, and not taking ourselves too seriously. That's why we've got a fun segment lined up next!    Fun Segment: Not My Job!

In this conversation, Dr. Jockers sits down with Dr. Paul Savage to explore the hidden roots of chronic inflammation. You'll hear how toxins are the driving force behind today's rise in disease and how plasma exchange therapy is offering people a way to lower their toxic load, calm inflammation, and regain vitality.   You'll find out why the usual detox methods like sauna, fasting, and binders don't always cut it anymore. Dr. Savage explains how toxins disrupt nutrient absorption, shut down key pathways, and even damage your body's natural detox systems, making advanced approaches like plasma exchange more necessary than ever.   You'll also discover how plasma exchange works, why it's safer and more effective than many other methods, and the kind of real results patients are seeing. From stronger immune systems to clearer thinking and more energy, this episode shows how reducing toxins at the source can change everything.   In This Episode: 00:00 Introduction to Plasma Exchange 00:17 Podcast Introduction and Guest Overview 00:46 Understanding Toxins and Detox Strategies 01:48 Introduction to Dr. Paul Savage and MD Lifespan 04:59 Interview with Dr. Paul Savage Begins 05:17 Hidden Sources of Chronic Inflammation 06:48 The Role of Toxins in Chronic Inflammation 08:54 Therapeutic Plasma Exchange Explained 15:32 Functional Medicine Approach to Plasma Exchange 22:55 Patient Selection Criteria 26:23 The Plasma Exchange Procedure 30:54 Clinician Collaboration and Expansion 35:01 Future of Functional and Longevity Medicine 39:43 Final Thoughts and Recommendations Looking for a clean, nutrient-packed snack?
