It's about this reframing what it is to be in our bodies and to embodied and to celebrate all the different phases. I mean, my size has never defined me.Lesley Logan 0:27  Welcome to the Be It Till You See It podcast where we talk about taking messy action, knowing that perfect is boring. I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started.Lesley Logan 1:10  All right, Be It babe, this is magical. If you had told me when I saw this podcast, I would have in this conversation, I would have like, no, what are you talking about? So while we normally don't talk a lot about Pilates on this podcast, everything is kind of Pilates to me. I have two incredible, humongously wonderful, brilliant, the biggest hearts of the entire world teachers on today's podcast, and we are going to talk about friendships and life and having brave conversations and and how do you accept an invitation to make an impact about something that is bigger than you? And this is really wonderful conversation. And so Maria Earle and Brooke Siler are our guests today, and we were talking about The Pilates Body book. And I'm honored. I can't believe I'm pinching myself that just fucking happened. I can't believe it. I can't believe I just got off like, two-hour chat with these wonderful women. What is my life? So anyways, I can't wait for you to hear this, and I do think it is a honest conversation about bodies and women and the things we go through. And I hope you love it and that you send it to a friend who needs to hear it, and you know, you tell us all about your favorite parts of it. Here they are. Lesley Logan 2:23  All right, Be It babe, we have like a dynamic duo. I'm not gonna lie, I also totally screwed something up when hitting getting everything ready, because I was so nervous and so excited, because I'm obsessed with both these women, I get to fan girl over them to their faces, which is very fun for me. So Maria and I got to officially meet in in Seoul Korea, but I had been following Maria Earle for a long time, and just watching she's just like, so graceful and so amazing and just wonderful everything she does. And I'm just like, I'm not graceful at all, but I just absolutely adored her. And I love like, I've spent time with her in Seoul, Korea, and so I feel like we'll always have a night in Seoul together. And then Brooke Siler, okay, so I went to, and you might not know this about me, Brooke, but I actually went to Pilates class, kind of kicking and screaming. I thought of that class was like a bunch of BS workout. I told the girl, it's an infomercial workout. It can't do what it claims, but I needed a friend. So I went to the class. And I was obsessed. Became obsessed with this class. I was like, oh, it was the most amazing thing I've ever done in my entire life. And I worked at South Coast Plaza, and I went to the bookstore, and I went to the fitness section, and I bought the Pilates book that was there, it was your book, I took it home, and I did every exercise like in the book. I started going to Pilates every single day. And you had a second book, and I bought that one. I was on the treadmill, like walking, like I was lifted, like I was obsessed. And then some, I moved to L.A., and someone's, like, can you be my Pilates instructor and like, kind of, you know, the internet and social media wasn't really a thing then. And then, fast forward to, I believe it was January of 2020, you were in L.A., and I was like, I have to go to this workshop. She doesn't know I'm so obsessed with her. And I went to the workshop and you taught an exercise a certain way that I had been teaching it that way, and I had no one had taught it to me like that, but I had just figured out like, and I pull straps I want my inner thighs up because it helps me get my butt on, helps me all these things. And you said it, and I was like, oh my God, I'm so validated right now. So anyways, I just had to tell you that, because, like, I you, like, even though I knew it was great, I just, like, needed someone like you to say it. I was like, this is amazing. So. Brooke Siler 4:31  Your little backup. Lesley Logan 4:32  Yeah, a little backup. So anyways, you've been part of my, like, be it till I see it as a Pilates person my whole life, and you and, like, for at least 20 years, and you didn't know it. But now I get to have the two of you on the Be It Till You See It podcast. So we'll start with Brooke. Brooke, can you tell everyone who you are and what you rock at? Brooke Siler 4:48  Yes. Well, first of all, thank you so much for having us. Me, us both. I, yeah, really excited to even have a conversation. I love being in a room with smart women. There's nothing better, really. So my name is Brooke Siler, as Lesley has already told you, I am an author. I'm a teacher. I started teaching in 1994 and then in 2000 I wrote the Pilates body, and it's been that fantastic 15 minutes of fame that has just gone on and on and on for me. I just am super blessed, super grateful. And yeah, I think that's who I am.Lesley Logan 5:25  Oh, my God, yeah, yeah. Then there's, I mean, like, when you have to, like, distill yourself down into a nutshell life, but it is, absolutely, we'll have to get into the 15 minutes of fame that keeps on giving you know for decades. Maria Earle, what do you rock at babe? Maria Earle 5:40  Hi. Also, thank you for putting this together. It's fun to be here with you two. So my name is Maria Earle, and I am a Pilates educator, and have been teaching Pilates since 1997 walked into the first Pilates studio a few years before that, and just never stopped. Anyway, I I'm based in Barcelona, Spain, and prior to that, I lived in New York City and had a Pilates studio for about eight years on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, and took a big leap of faith and moved abroad about 15 years ago, which it's funny when you put a number to it, but, yeah.Lesley Logan 6:29  I know, I know I feel really young until I realize how long I've been doing something. I'm like, oh, I mean, I'm still young, but also we aged in there.Maria Earle 6:38  So yeah, I have a Pilates studio here, and I run post graduate teacher training courses and online things. And, you know, trying to live my best life, basically.Lesley Logan 6:52  Yeah, do the best you can. Like, do the whole balance thing they all tell us to do. You're like, balance gotta work, the balance of work and life. And, you know, you have kids too, right, Maria? Maria Earle 7:01  I have one, though it feels like multiples, but there is only one. I'm like, yeah, yeah, there's one. Lesley Logan 7:10  Yeah, oh my gosh, okay, well, so I guess we can go, you know, we can go anywhere we want, but I actually would love to hear how the two of you got connected, because part of me goes like, did you know each other in New York? And the other part of me is like, so jealous when I hear that you've been doing Pilates since the 90s, like, I would wonder what my life would have been like had I learned it sooner. I'm always so jealous of people who did it in the 90s.Maria Earle 7:36  Yeah. You call that Golden Age.Brooke Siler 7:38  It really was. It really was a golden, I feel like it was, yeah, it was a Golden Age. Pilates. (inaudible) I feel like Maria and I maybe have orbited each other, because we seem to have been in a lot of the same places at the same times, but we didn't actually meet each other, until just 20, what did we determine it was? 2018?Maria Earle 8:01  2019Brooke Siler 8:02  2019 in Barcelona. I came over to teach a workshop at a studio there, and Maria was there, and she was Maria (inaudible) and it was her birthday, and I was like, oh, loud American, oh my gosh, in Spain, in this little studio. And, yeah, we, I, we just kind of got to chatting, but we didn't do much after that, did we? For a while.Maria Earle 8:28  We talked, I think we talked a few times, because we know are we allowed to say this about you living abroad already. Brooke Siler 8:36  I mean, I live abroad. Maria Earle 8:37  That's not a that's not a .Brooke Siler 8:39  No, it's not a secret. No, I live in the U.K.Maria Earle 8:42  So yeah, I think. Lesley Logan 8:44  What if Brooke is like, don't tell anyone I live in the U.K.Brooke Siler 8:50  I'm the witness protection program. But other than that.Maria Earle 8:53  Witness protection program, I was like, I don't know. You know, I'm not gonna. Anyway, so yeah, (inaudible) exactly. I think we connected. I mean, not only do we connect over, you know, Pilates or whatnot, but I think there was, like a real like, wait, you live in the U.K.? And you were like, wait, you live here now? We were both kind of like, well, what are you doing? What? And so there was, I think, you know, I remember a number of phone calls where we were talking about, you know, the, the challenge of, you know, uprooting your life. And in later years, you know, I mean, I didn't move here with children, but Brooke moved with children, and basically. Brooke Siler 9:41  Yeah, mine were nine and 11 when we moved. Maria Earle 9:43  You know, she needed to start running, like, from the get go. She needed to have all the things together, right? I, I moved here as a single person going, lalala. This is great. This is fun. And then, you know, sort of built my life deciding like, oh, I'm really going to stop. Here, and I'm going to make a life here for myself. And, you know, I've never looked back.Lesley Logan 10:07  Yeah, I think that's so I think this is so interesting, like, because we have a lot of people write in, like, how do you make friends when you're older? Like, I've moved and I think, like, that was obviously shared experiences. Like, you go somewhere, like everyone did you hear they went to a thing that they both are interested in, but then you you connect on another level. Like, I think that's the important part of like, having a friendship. Like, you have to, can't just be like, oh, we just go to Pilates class together. Like, there has to be this other shared thing. And it's like, oh, we're both expats, and we both had to, like, start a whole new life somewhere. And I'd imagine Brooke that it's quite challenging to do that with two kids, like, I imagine, like, because you had already written the book by then, the original Pilates Body Book, and then you move. And so then you're like, you have a whole life. You're a best selling author, and then you're like, a mom trying to get two kids into school.Brooke Siler 10:54  Actually, that was the whole point was I had been kind of this, the Pilates Body author, since 29 years old, 30 years old, right? So I was like, Who? And I started Pilates at 26 years old. So here I was 46 or something. I was like, who am I without this? Like, half my life has been this. Can I just be a mom? So when I moved here, I came with my husband's name, like, I was like, I'm not gonna say Siler, I'm not going to tell anyone I do Pilates. My stuff was in the garage. Like I am to be mom, and that's what I can't or mom, my kids totally do not have English accents, but so, yeah, that's what I was going to do. So I joined the PTA because I'm that person, and I, yeah, I made like, you know, we went to the pub and did the pub quizzes and did all that stuff while the kids were in school. I was mama, and of course, then what did I end up doing, teaching the teachers Pilates for free. I was like, hey, let me come and give you guys Pilates because you I like, how do you do this with kids that's so challenging. Let me do something for you. So I came and started teaching every Friday, giving them Pilates session, you, I can't get away. You can't get away from it like it's who you are. If you're a teacher, you're a teacher, and if your art is is Pilates. Like, you know, I feel like my, my vocation is teacher, and my, my medium is Pilates, you know.Lesley Logan 12:15  I understand that. I think like I, you were all going to teach something that happened, that we, you know, someone probably told all of us that we should become a teacher, and we're like, okay, I'll do that thing. Yeah, yeah.Brooke Siler 12:29  Pulled me back in. And it wasn't till lockdown. That's when Maria and I really came together, and that's when, yeah, my whole Pilates World opened right back up again.Lesley Logan 12:40  Interesting. So, like, did you guys? Because, I mean, obviously we've heard, like, I think it was Esther Peral was, like, the Covid was, like, the great accelerator, like, if you were gonna do something, it was gonna, you were gonna do it, and it's gonna do it faster. So you're either gonna, like, if you're gonna break up with someone, you broke up with them faster. If you were, like, Brad and I, we picked up our life and moved as well, and I did it three years earlier than we thought we ever could. And, and, and so, like, was that the great accelerator for your friendship? Was it a way that you guys got deeper because there was not as many distractions? How did that go?Brooke Siler 13:09  Yeah, what do you think Maria?Maria Earle 13:11  I think so. I mean, I so agree with the great accelerator. I mean, I always think about, I mean, for our friendship, for sure, but also, you know, stepping into, stepping into newness, in terms of professionally, stepping into things that, otherwise, you know, it was the kind of the kick in the ass that I needed for a number of things that I'm totally happy to talk about. Lesley Logan 13:36  Yeah.Brooke Siler 13:38  (inaudible) About it because we were, like a little women's group. There was four of us.Lesley Logan 13:42  Yeah, okay, if I obviously, what happens in a women's group stays in women's group. But like, if there's something we can talk about from women's group, I would love to because I think this is where, this is where a lot of women I find our listeners are, they can get really lonely, or they they want community, and they seek community, but then, you know, someone doesn't show up to something, and it gets easy to take it personally. Like, how did you guys have a women's group, and what did you just talk about?Brooke Siler 14:07  It was, it was a movement. I mean, we were working out together, is what it was. So, like, two, three times a week, we were working out together and.Maria Earle 14:15  And then doing a lot of chatting afterwards. (inaudible) Talk about, like, set your morning aside. I mean, like, don't book any clients until after 12. There is just, there's just too much that needs to pass.Brooke Siler 14:33  Everything, you know, everything that was happening in Covid that was so amplified was happening around us. And so we would sometimes, you know, we'd get on the we'd go to work out, but someone had had a morning, something had happened, someone had seen something and and we would, you know, tears and sharing, and yeah, we yeah, all the things happened, yeah, yeah. But it was an unlikely like, none of us really knew each other knew each other before. And, yeah, we're an interesting foursome, actually.Lesley Logan 15:03  I love but I love it because it's like, I think, you know, you said side of the time, and it just evolved naturally. But also, like, when women do get together and they're and they share that, and they can be vulnerable, you know, they say, like, you know, movement is how, like, we like, trauma can leave the body. We can heal the body. Like, it's so important. I have a yoga class that I go to, and the first few minutes are kind of somebody bitching about something, and then we get into the yoga and then by the time the yoga is over, whatever that was like, moved out of all of us. And then, and then you can wrap up the conversation, if somebody needs to. And I sometimes kind of wish it went an hour longer, you know, I can imagine what a wonderful way to, like, very therapeutic.Brooke Siler 15:44  There's the physical workout and the emotional workout. They both kind of conjoined. Maria Earle 15:50  Yeah and when you just, when you just commit to it, you just lock into it, and that just becomes your non negotiable. Like, that's just, that's just what I do on Tuesdays and Thursday mornings, like, you know, sometimes things would come up, but we.Brooke Siler 16:07  We're committed to one another, to ourselves and to one another. Lesley Logan 16:10  Yeah. And that's like, so, okay, this is the hard part, right? Because, like, we're all teachers here. And like, we have the clients who, like, you know, they want to come three times a week, and then they and then they book, you know, this coffee date and this thing. And then we have the teachers who also say they want these things, or the women who are like, not necessarily teachers, because this is not most of the people don't even do Pilates listeners. But like the people, like they're they want this, but it is a commitment, like it is an actual like, you are not just coming Tuesdays and Thursday mornings until noon, but you're making sure everyone in your life knows about it so that it's things do come up, but they're kind of rare, because there's rarely, like, an actual emergency that can't be done on another day, like, there's, you know. So how did you guys, like, how did did you tell, like, Maria you have a kid, did you tell your one kid and Brooke, I'm assuming your kids are a little older now, but like, were they aware that, like, hey, leave me alone. This is my private time. How did you get the commitment to be something you could come to without the pressures of, like, all the guilt of all being a mom?Maria Earle 17:07  I don't know. I blocked it out. Brooke Siler 17:09  Yeah, me too. What guilt? That was our time?Maria Earle 17:15  No, I don't know. It's funny because I actually, I.Brooke Siler 17:20  Also we have boys, I feel like that needs to be said (inaudible).Maria Earle 17:25  Yeah, maybe, I mean, you know, it could have been messy, like, I don't know, but I know that it was time, not only well spent, obviously, But it was time that was so important to me that I just, I figured out how to make it work. And, you know, maybe sometimes I could only log in for a little while, or, you know, sometimes I'd say, like, I gotta, I gotta go. I gotta go, you know, I I just, I want to, I want to check in. I want to say that I love you, and like, hi, but like, I have all this going on. I, that's it. That's all I got for you. They'd be like, you know, bye, we need just that little bit of like, you got this, you know. Lesley Logan 18:16  Well and it also it sounds so it sounds a little bit like one, you know, you needed it for yourselves, and like, you did that, and they were, like, unapologetic about that. And then two, you found the right people that would understand if you couldn't, and they wouldn't take it personally, and they wouldn't hold it against you. And I think that's where a lot of people have screwed up in their groups, of their friendships. It's like they kind of have kept people from a long time, and you know, like, aren't good at voicing what they need or or even knowing what they need. So then it, it gets muddled, and it becomes an uncomfortable situation.Brooke Siler 18:48  I'm I'm wondering now if maybe what worked in our favor was that we weren't friends beforehand, really. We kind of we, we solidified the friendship, but actually we grew the friendship in lockdown. So we were learning about each other. So it was not only the interest in showing up to move, but we were also interested, I think, you know, in each other and one another, and each one of us had so many amazing things happen to us. You know, Alicia started a podcast, and Karen, like, set up her studio. And, you know.Brooke Siler 19:18  Maria bought. Maria Earle 19:20  Oh yeah, I bought my studio (inaudible). Brooke Siler 19:23  We were there for for all these things, you know. And we could share, like, hey, what do you guys think? And each one of us so has a different kind of forte, and we just feel like the universe just kind of made that all happen. So, without too esoteric, it really was yeah meant to be we and we yeah I think it became that, like.Maria Earle 19:45  It became a rock.Brooke Siler 19:46  You do, yeah.Lesley Logan 19:48  Yeah, and then and, I mean, like, life the world is open. Have you been able to keep the Tuesday and Thursdays together, like you guys still hanging out? Brooke Siler 19:57  It became different. It's shape shifted. It's. Not the same. It's more like, you know, yes, the world is open. There's so many other things going on. I mean, listen, I had to write a book just to see Maria again. I mean, that there was that moment of like, yeah, after having written the book, I was then like, oh, someone actually has to be the model in this. Who and I just, it was immediate. It wasn't even, like, a second I didn't even have a second choice. Like, had she said, no, I was screwed.Lesley Logan 20:31  So, so, so we're, I mean, of course, everyone's like, hold on. We have so many questions about this. Like, women's group, but we're gonna move on, guys, because we only have so much time. But like, if you, if you Brooke Siler's name does not ring a bell from The Pilates Body book, but, but that we, you know, I've literally moved with every apartment. It ever moved with me and into this house, and it didn't even go into a closet, like it's on the shelf. You know, because I think it represents, like the time when I was, like, I was, I believe so much that people can have an independent Pilates practice. And because I was like, but this book gave me that, like, I was able to have an independent Pilates practice. And I I think that, like, that's so necessary for the world we all live in today, to have, you know, to have enough Pilates in our life, whether you're a teacher or not, you need to have some way of doing it. So I was trying to look it up before we started talking, when did you write this book the first time?Brooke Siler 21:24  I started writing it in 1999 and it was published in 2000. Lesley Logan 21:28  Okay, so that's wow, so it's been 25 years. So then you had so then you're like, I'm gonna write it again. I guess.Brooke Siler 21:36  I was like, we should celebrate. It's 25 years, and I still have people coming and saying, oh, my God, my career started because of Pilates, because of The Pilates Body, and that was the first book I ever had, and I've heard that for 25 years, and it felt like, definitely, you know, the, Pilates is bigger now than ever. And I was like, how amazing would it be if we if we did a 25th anniversary, and I brought my literary agent, and she was like, yes, love the idea. And then we brought it to an editor, and they were like, yes, love the idea. And they were like, but, and I just thought, actually, I could, you know, there's that one copy of the Joe Pilates book where it's two of his books together. I thought it was going to get off really easy and just combine the first two books. And so I said to the editor, can't we just put the two together and make it.Lesley Logan 22:21  This one too. Brooke Siler 22:22  Yes, exactly. Wouldn't that be perfect? And then I don't have to do anything. And they were like, No, you have to put new material in there. And I was like, oh, okay. So I hear the things that are of interest to me at this time, like I'm doing a lot of deep work on breathing. I'm doing a lot of deep work on this (inaudible) and that's a whole nother topic, but they chose one, and that was what I went with. And so when I started doing the deep digging, it was, I mean, I had already done the deep digging, I should say, but then starting to try to put it into terms that could be easily understood, and how to make it blend deeper with Pilates. And it was stuff that I was doing that we were doing in our Tuesdays, Thursdays, you know, I always come with ideas. I'm like, hey guys, let's try this thing I've been playing with. And there they were just always game. They were very generous with me and allowing me to test out all of my crazy ideas on them. And yeah, so this one just kept sticking. And then I was teaching online classes, and people were like, writing me afterwards, going, Oh my God, I feel amazing. I can't believe, like, what this feels like. And I was like, okay, cool. So I not only wrote it, but I was like, listen, it's 25 years. I'm going to rewrite all the they didn't give me a budget to do all the photos again. So the photos are the same as they were, and the layout is the same, but I pretty much rewrote everything, like, I updated the language and put in new variations and a lot of archival, you know, just bringing Joe into it, because lockdown, I dug deep, deep in Joe's, you know, treasure trove, and put, like, instead of looking outside of Pilates, I just went back in. I feel like it's that when you go to the dentist, and they used to have the treasure chest and you could pick a toy, it's like, I just went, I did a deep dive into the, Maria, I did a deep dive in and found all. Lesley Logan 24:11  Maria, your dentist didn't have a treasure chest because mine did. And an aquarium, okay? And I would watch the rocket fish go across like I was my favorite.Brooke Siler 24:20  Yes, exactly, yes. So I just yeah, I think, you know, I was pulling stuff out and trying stuff, and they were loving it. And that's the way my mind works. I feel like lockdown for me was an incredible like, everything shut down, out, out, and my brain just went absolutely mad creative. Like I just couldn't stop creating. It was, it was amazing. Lesley Logan 24:44  So you're listening to this everyone. The book is already out, like we're talking about this before I've had my hands on a copy. And of course, I'm like, now (inaudible) even more than I was when you first told me about it, but like I do so and I'm excited to hear what Maria's response was like. Like to also You were telling her, I'm gonna redo this. Like, there is something about, like, Okay, I think we should celebrate. It's gonna be easy. But then it's like, okay, great. Now I've get to redo it. The in the redoing, it's like, you there's things that you can change, because you've had 25 years of teaching on top of it, 25 years of testimonial, 25 years of hearing people say they love this, or have questions about this, like, not many people get a redo and in life, you know, so. So Maria, when she came to you and said she was redoing this, is there anything that like you were the most excited about, that you were like, like, what? What part did you get to explore with her, that you were excited to be in the book?Maria Earle 25:38  Well, my, my role is a very tiny, tiny little role.Lesley Logan 25:43  No way, no way, no.Brooke Siler 25:47  Let's just call bullshit on that. I mean, it's not.Maria Earle 25:50  That is not true. What I mean to say is that, basically, as Brooke said, right, she had been developing these ideas and had an opportunity to basically add a new section to the book. And needed, and needed wanted to have somebody to to be the model for that new chapter. And I got to be someone who sort of got to be in the behind the scenes, like I got to sort of be in her brain a little bit while she was, you know, having this explosive sort of creativity moment, you know, I got to, I got to experience firsthand, you know, her process. And that was amazing. And, you know, I mean, I guess we could joke a little bit about this Brooke, because she she said she sort of hinted to it earlier when she said that, you know, she wanted me to do the book, but you know, she was like, if she said, no, you know, what was I going to do, right? You know, so I think so it took her a little while because she knew that I might like run for the hills when she's asking me to be the, you know, the model.Brooke Siler 27:05  The Pilates Body to be out there. Yeah. Maria Earle 27:08  I was like, Brooke, are you crazy? You know, is like my first reaction, you know. So, you know, do you want to do this? You know, before I'm 50 or after I'm 50, you know, I do you? You know who you're talking to, right? You know I was like, so is this, like a wedding boot camp kind of thing that I need to, like, get myself, like, totally, like, in shape or whatever.Lesley Logan 27:49  Whatever that means, yeah, yeah, yeah.Maria Earle 27:51  And she was like, No, I want you to just be you and talk about leap of faith. Talk about, like, stepping into, like, the scary bits and saying, Okay, I I trust you, yeah, and I believe in your vision, and I want to step into that space 100% because it is what I believe. Like, let's celebrate, let's celebrate the body as it is, like, let's, let's give it a whole another dimension here, you know, let's cut through the bullshit of what it means to have a Pilates body, and let's reframe that dialog. And no, I'm not going to get photoshopped as much as I, you know that little my head is like, well, could. Brooke Siler 29:04  We had a lot of conversations. Maria Earle 29:05  Couldn't they just a little, no, right? So it's like this, like inner dialog of over months and months, you know? And that is powerful and beautiful. And I, I could not have asked for am better partner to to do that with, and, you know, a safe space to like, be, no, I'm going to step into this, and I'm going to do it big, and it's going to be, it's going to be yeah and and, yeah. It feels great to be a part of something that is, it's bigger than me. It's bigger it's bigger than the book. It's bigger than us together. It's bigger than all of it. It's, it's, it's, it's about this reframing what what it is to be in our bodies. And to embodied and to and to celebrate all the different phases. I mean, my size has never defined me, and I have been, you know, I am not the size I was when I was 25.Lesley Logan 30:18  Nor I and probably not, right? I I love that we're going here, because I just have to say, like, we're recording this two weeks after so my youtube channel hit 40,000 subscribers, which I'm at the time, this is where, and I was so freaking stoked, because, like, I did it without, like, putting I did it without, like, doing a, you know, tits and ass workout, without, like, you know, the fake Pilates, like, we'll call it Pilates, but it's just, mostly just sit ups, like, I did it without, like, put on, I did it with, like, just educational support. And I'm so proud of what we did. And on the day that we hit 40,000 somebody wrote, your stuff is really great, but you used to be thinner, and it was really, the videos are really great when you were thinner. What happened? Of course, other subscribers are like, this is not helpful. This is why teachers and trainers are afraid to gain weight. Like, wonderful, supportive stuff and to and like, my response to this per and the person doubled down. So in case we're wondering, like, maybe it's a cultural thing, like, we have a house in Cambodia, and people will inquire, like, oh, you're bigger. Why? Because maybe you're rich. They want it like, like, you know, like, that's kind of different cultures. Have different experiences. So, so I was trying to like, so in case we thought maybe it's a cultural translation thing. No, they doubled down. They said it's a calories in, calories out. She could have better discipline. Oh, and to which I got pissed off, because I don't, I don't have the body I had at you know, when I discovered, when I when Pilates discovered me at 22 like I am, first of all, I am no longer sick. I no longer have digestive issues. I now absorb nutrition. I also like happen to look a lot better with curves. Thank you very much. But I, for the record, like I told I went online and told people, yeah, I've gained 40 pounds. I am the most disciplined person I know. I probably do Pilates more than people other people do who have different bodies than me. You cannot have fat phobic comments on my channel. This is wrong for so many reasons. I hope you have space and grace for yourself and others when your body's changed, because they will and it's and I really appreciate you sharing that journey, Maria, about your body too. It's like, I think so many teachers and so many women are afraid to put themselves out there, whatever their thing is. We can even switch Pilates to being an author, being a speaker or being a doctor, like every woman is so afraid. Well, I don't look like whatever x is supposed to look like. And so people are going to judge me. And then, because they don't put themselves out there, because they're afraid they'll be judged, then the only people that are out there are 22 year olds in their super cute outfits that have never looked good on me. And so, of course, like so then people think that's what it is. And so then we have this whole misunderstanding. Brooke Siler 33:05  It's really, it's a, it's, yeah, it is dysmorphia, and it's a really sad commentary, and it's, and, you know, I'm, don't let me get started on a patriarchy, because I will. Lesley Logan 33:16  We can, but yeah. Brooke Siler 33:19  You know, it's, it's this. It's not only an unrealistic ideal, but like, who's even the one coming up with that shit? It's just ridiculous. And the thing is, we've all bought into it at some stage in our lives. And certainly it's something that, you know, it can be on so many different levels. But Maria and I were talking about this too. There was plenty of times, like, even, you know, you'd want to Photoshop this, or there's the cellulite there, and there's the whole thing, and in the end of the day, we're wiser than we've ever been in our lives. We are more powerful in our own ways than we've ever been in our lives. We can move beautifully in at our this age in our lives. I started taking tennis last year. I go three times a week. One, I've never in my life played tennis. I started at 56 you have to love that and like, fuck it. I don't care if my thighs are thicker. I'm like, really enjoying what I can do in this body. And that's what a Pilates body always was. I did even look back in 2000 when I wrote the book, the if you go through the three models at the beginning, there is a passage at the Afterword that says, I chose these three models because of their they were teaching because they're teachers. Their ability to do the actual movements and endure the long photo shoots of the day, they happen to work for me. So that was very easy. They were there. I didn't do like a whatever they call that, a model call, you know, they they worked for me, so it was perfect. They were amazing teachers who were had modern dance backgrounds, so they were strong as shit, and they were beautiful. And I wrote, I hope in earnest, that they that they inspire and don't intimidate. And I wrote that in 2000 because for me, I already knew it's not about having a skinny you know, body, a particular type of body. It was just they were there to model the work, and I knew they could do it. And these are longer days of shooting. So with Maria, I knew her. I knew her work, because we've been working out together for years, and I could see her power and what she could do with her body. And I thought actually in the way she moved, coming from Kathy Grant, but she has this beautiful way of moving different than what I experienced from Ramana. So I loved it, and I thought it fit so perfectly. And it was very much about, you know, it's got a lot of Maria in it too, which is this beautiful, you know, soul. It's about sensing internally. And so it's, it's a kind of, it's a really nice, I think, flip. It's not that the work. I mean, she killed it, I will say, and I'm just going to admit this, I knew she was going to do an amazing job. I really, I can't actually believe how incredible she was, really. And she knows I say this all the time to her, because she, she killed it. She was a superstar rock star, like, if she couldn't get the thing, she was like, save it. We'll do it again at the end. Like she just, there was determination, like, nothing I've ever seen. It was a very long day of shooting, and I it was like, yeah. I was like, wow, that was really the right choice. I mean, I knew it was the right choice from the beginning. It was, it was a no choice choice. She was a no choice choice. It was just gonna be Maria or it was gonna be no one, and thank God, she took a day, I think, like a day, right when I asked you, and then, like, the next day, she was like, right, I'm good. Because I remember saying to my husband, like, what if she didn't do it? Like, I needed to be her. It's just her. It just was her. It was like, meant to be you. So. Lesley Logan 36:40  Oh yeah, but I, and I, Maria, first of all, like, I don't, I you, there's something about you that's just so magical that you could even, I don't even know, I don't know if I could take the day, I probably would have been like, I'm fucking scared. And, you know, but you know, like, I don't what, what did you think about? What did you? Did you journal? Like, what did you, what? How did you how did you contemplate the decision? Because you're correct, it's hard to find the words for it. It is going to be bigger than this book is any bigger because, because the book was already bigger than Brooke already, and so and so. And also I just want to say, like, I love that there. I love that the height of Pilates being so popular. This book is coming out again, because I do think it brings some authenticity to the work that we're doing. So what did you do during the day to, like, come to the decision we all want to know how you contemplated?Maria Earle 37:30  Well, I think, I think definitely it was a process. It was a number of conversations, you know, and and I knew in my heart that I that I had to say yes, I knew that it would be a major regret if I let fear and you know, like the little the little naysayers, you know you shouldn't be doing that, or what business do you have? You know nobody wants to see you know you. I knew that all those little voices that I ultimately would regret letting them win. So I knew that I had to say yes, and then basically I had to work backwards from the yes to convince myself that I was okay and that, that, you know, and luckily, luckily, I got good people on my corner, so, so whenever I felt like I needed to, oh God, oh God, what have I done? I'm not ready for that. Wait. I need that boot camp, you know, I maybe, if I did lose, you know, the 20 pounds that I've gained, you know, in the past 10 years, perimenopause is kicking my ass, you know, what if I, maybe I could, oh, God, like whenever I would sort of hit those high rev panic moments, you know, I just have to go to Brooke and whoever else was, were my rocks, you know. And you know, while I'm like, circling and, you know, and I can't land right, and they would be like, it's okay, we got you. This is going to be amazing. This is this and that, and.Brooke Siler 39:20  (inaudible) believing the people that see you like you almost have to see yourself through others' eyes like it was no doubt in my mind that you were perfect, perfect, but I just that's you know, you had to go through your process to get there, and I had to respect that. But yes, I was going to tell you how amazing and beautiful and stay as you are and like, think about how many people get to look and say, Oh, I feel that's me. I'm there. I'm being represented. It's, yeah.Maria Earle 39:52  I mean, because it's important. It's about, it's about really stepping into, stepping into that space, and that stepping into that space is really scary, but I show up that way from my clients every day, yeah, but I don't necessarily show up for myself in that way, and that is something that I don't like to admit. So I am admitting it here, and I'm admitting it now, but you won't ever hear me say it again. No, I'm joking. (inaudible) Maybe now I'll be able to say it more often, which is, like, I, you know, I fall into the same body traps, you know, even though I, I will with my clients and with the teachers who I work with, and, you know, my friends, I like show up with body positivity, and you are beautiful and you are powerful. And I don't, let's not worry about the, you know, the extra little curvy there, like, let's get strong. Let's get moving. Because it's about the moving, and it's about feeling strong, feeling great in your body. It's not about how your body looks. I do that for people all day long. And then when it comes to myself, it's like, right? Until it's like eating you up inside. And so and so the process, the process is not overnight. It's like a long term, term thing. And you know, the book's gonna come out, and I'm probably gonna hide under my covers for every day. Lesley Logan 41:17  For a few minutes, and then we're all gonna drag you out.Brooke Siler 41:21  We're coming in after you for sure (inaudible0.Lesley Logan 41:25  I'm gonna text you the day after it comes out to make sure that you're like, I I appreciate and that you said those things, because it's true. Like, I think we all hear like we're all that for our clients, like they body shame themselves, like, hold on, we're reframing that. And in the process of loving the body that I'm growing into. And, you know, there is all the things, because we were raised in, as our brain was developing, we were raised with the five minutes of tone here, the this here, like I was in modeling, and, of course, like I was like, working out all the time. And you guys went at a commercial agent and a modeling agent, and on the same day, the modeling agent said you're not thin enough, and my commercial agent said you're getting too skinny. And I was like, oh, I don't actually know what to do today. Like, I don't know what to do today because I'm now not hireable in commercials, according to you, but I'm not hireable enough because the modeling agency want to be a fitness model, but I wasn't toned enough to be a fitness model, but I wasn't skinny enough to be a model, model, and so, like you so and so here's, here's what I did. You guys, my agents were across the street from a fonuts, which is, if you've ever been to L.A., it's a non fried, gluten free donut shop. Okay, so the donuts are not fried. It's only gonna happen in L.A. and I I fucking went to the donut shop. I was like, fuck it. I don't even know what to do, and I consciously eating my feelings. Right now, I am an adult enough to understand. I do not, I have a therapy session around this, but I was just like, no one is going to be happy. And that is what I like sat on this bus stop with my donut, and I remember, like, no one's happy, and I told my husband, I said, I think I'm gonna let go of the agents. And I don't know what that means, because I don't I wasn't like wasn't like, wasn't like, I was I wasn't a dream of mine, but I was also like, I can't like, I can't handle these people and my own thoughts, like my own reaction, like, I can't my own thoughts of like my body changing and who I'm becoming, and trying to get healthier and absorb B vitamins, you know, anything to live on this planet like, and also have outside people tell me things like, so I that was, that was when I actually let go of but I will say, like, because we all go through that we can be very body positive and still have these things about ourselves. And I, I think it's hard to admit, but it's also like, it's, it's just honest, and it's a process, because I do think that in people falling in love with their bodies and seeing different bodies doing these strong exercises, they're still going to have their own thoughts to themselves. I can't do that. That's not what my body like all the and we have to go, you're going to have all those thoughts, and you're still invited to this party, because, like, we should have always been moving for the health of it and not for the shape of it. And I don't know when we stop working out for the shape. I don't know when that stops, but I do appreciate your honesty there, Maria. And I think it's I'm excited for what people are going to say and see and do.Maria Earle 44:37  Yeah, and also I would say, I would say something about to sort of bring a couple threads through that in that deep dive that Brooke did, like really looking into the archival work and looking at, you know, the pictures that Joe took doing his mat work, like we we sat with the book, you know, during the photo shoot, like we sat with the book and we were like, how is he doing this? As opposed to, and no, no zero shade, but different than looking at a manual or the gorgeous models that were in book one, right, that were all contemporary or ballet dancers who were making shapes, beautiful shapes, that were in very much influenced by the an esthetic that comes from dance. So you know, Mr. Pilates' swan is not a full extension with fingertips facing the ceiling, right? But we have that in our manual as like, that's what the swan dive is supposed to look like, right? And so we bought into an esthetic that doesn't necessarily, really, it's not, it's an it's an it's just that, it's just the esthetic, period, right.Brooke Siler 46:09  It doesn't even serve the body in the same way that when you realize what Joe was asking, and I always kind of joke about this, how many times I looked at those pictures in the book before lockdown, you know, for years before, because Romana had them on her walls and all of that. And in my mind, he was not in great form, not matching what I was being told. So, like, he needs to do this, he needs to soften his knees. He needs to and then when I started, really, and I've read those books a lot of times. I mean, honestly, before lockdown, I had already they were dog eared and highlighted in every color anyway. But then I went back in and, you know, every time you reread something, you read it with new eyes you because it's where you are. You need it. It meets you where you are in that moment, and it met in this place that was so perfect, because I really read it, I really I heard it, I saw it, and I thought, let me try what he's actually saying, because I had not, not done that. I just, blind faith, went with what I knew from my teacher, of course, who you know again, no shade there, either. Like, fantastic. It got me so far. But then being able to take Joe's words and his vision and his you know, he wanted to help us really be in our bodies and move better during the day. So when we did it that way, when we really got into the nitty gritty of what he was asking, and then the feeling like Maria was saying after the photo shoot, that she was like, Oh my God, I feel incredible. Like, not exhausted, and, I mean, maybe exhausted from the energy of it, but like, the feeling in the body is a good feeling, as opposed to.Maria Earle 47:53  Not fighting the body I was not, I was not fighting myself doing the exercises. I think that's, I think that's really, I think there's really something to that, you know, that you're not in a battle against you and the exercise, or you and the shape, and you trying to get into the shape, be the shape and and, you know, you'll see, you'll see the pictures. It's, it's not rocket science. It's not anything incredibly incredible. It's actually pared down. It's actually not performative, and therefore it's, it's, it's gonna resonate at a different level. And for some people, they're gonna be, like, it's just that.Brooke Siler 48:42  I said there's gonna be people who just rip the new chapter off and throw it away.Maria Earle 48:46  Like, well, what is this? You know. But if you're ready for it and you're in, you're willing to, like, excavate, and do the, do the work, as they say, right, then you're going to be like, Oh, this is this. This there. This is different. This feels different. This is, this is me being in my body in a different way. It's in my body in my way, as opposed to in somebody else's way, where I'm trying to, you know, do that, yeah, that what's happening down there at the end of the line.Brooke Siler 49:34  Very internal chapter in its own way. You can, you can enjoy it for the beautiful photos. But really, what's happening inside Maria in it is what's really, it's about and, and it's, you know, it will, it will be a new thing that people can take or leave. But it's really, I dug deep, and then I combined it with this natural thing called pandiculation. Which is what dogs, our pets, do all the time. You know, this, this lengthening and it's and then when I looked at the archival footage, pictures of Joe and the videos, I was like, Wait, that's what he's doing. And that's what he was saying, natural law of nature, how we move. Watch the animals. I was like, you know it was. And so, yeah.Lesley Logan 50:23  Yeah, yeah. I, I'm, thank you for saying what pandiculation was because I was like, I'm gonna have to look that up.Brooke Siler 50:28  And by the time you're, you know, this comes out, you will.Lesley Logan 50:32  but I can't wait for that. But I it's true. Like, my, my dog gets out of bed every morning, and he does both stretches, right? And I like, look at that. I'm like, I don't, I don't get out of bed and go. Lesley Logan 50:41  But he, you know when he does it 30 or 40 times a day. And they do it every time they move, because we don't like if you try to stretch your dog, they don't like stretch. If you try to pull your dog's leg, they don't like that. What dogs are doing? Pandiculation was fascinating. And when we do it, when we it's basically the word for yawn and stretch. It was developed in the 70s, whatever. Anyway, when you yawn and stretch, we think we're stretching, but we're actually contracting. So when you do this, you're not actually stretching the front. You're contracting the back of you and then releasing. And it becomes a signal that's sent to the brain so you actually learn how to regulate your muscle tension. It's phenomenal. Joe didn't say the word pandiculation, but he absolutely asked us to do what the animals do, and that's what the animals do, because it circulates your blood. It's so freaking cool. I just can't wait. I honestly, you know. Lesley Logan 51:37  I keep watching. I sent Brooke a little gif of, like, someone like, watching the mailbox. I'm watching the mailbox. I'm like, she's like, Lesley, I don't have my copy yet. And I'm like. Brooke Siler 51:47  My copy, yeah, no, I can't wait. Lesley Logan 51:49  I I'm really, I'm really stoked for this. I think, I think also, we're ready. I think there's a huge part of the community that's ready for our conversation about this. I think women who are, like, seeking actual Pilates class, are seeking this conversation, and I think you're giving people permission to do it at home, which has always been something that, like, I'm a huge fan of like, I just think that, like, we keep saying we want Pilates to be accessible, but it's not necessarily like about the price of classes, y'all. It's like making sure they have the ability to do it independently, on their own, because I truly believe that that is where confidence is built. It's like creating this agency within themselves. Like, I can do this, you know, I can look at me, I can do these. I can do this move. I can I can feel this in my body, and then go on the day. Like, I think women especially need that internal strength and agency that, yes, it's great to have a teacher like any one of us, to have eyes on you and like to give you some actual corrections. But also, I think sometimes we are always outsourcing. People are like, what are we? Am I good enough to somebody else's opinion and and really, I just want women to have that. So when you Brooke told me about this, I was like, fuck yeah, I'm in whatever it is you're doing I'm in,Brooke Siler 53:06  Developing that sense of internal trust, instead of always asking for the approval to come from the outside. Way to get to start approving of ourselves, feeling that we can trust what we feel, what we know. I don't care if you're I always tell my class it doesn't matter what I say. Literally, if I come over and I'm in your face saying, lift your leg. Lift your if it is not right for you, do not do it. Do not listen to me. Please. You have full permission not to listen to me. Listen to you. Only you are in your body. Only you know what you're feeling. So it has to be a joint you know, conversation that's happening, it can't just come from one side, so I am also really here for the conversations that will come from this and, yeah.Lesley Logan 53:53  Okay, we, I think the three of us could talk for hours, and we're, I'm already, I sorry, I looked at the clock. Hope you have a few more minutes. We're gonna take a brief break, and then find out where people can find you, follow you, work with you and your Be It Action Items. Lesley Logan 54:08  All right, ladies, we'll go. So what Maria? Where do you hang out? Where's your favorite place? She's gonna drink her tea. Where's your favorite place for people to connect with you? How can they work with you? What do you got?Maria Earle 54:23  So people can look me up, find me, contact me through my website mariaearle.com I also have an IG handle that is my name, Maria Earle, and yeah, I would say those are the two best ways to connect with me.Lesley Logan 54:41  Perfect, Brooke, what about you? And where can they buy this book? If they haven't gotten it already?Brooke Siler 54:47  It will be at all your favorite booksellers. I hope, I mean it's, you know, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, all those kinds of great places. And hopefully we'll get it into, you know, small bookstores too. I love the old (inaudible) bookshops.Lesley Logan 54:59  But also, they don't sponsor the show, but I heard, I heard it's bookshop.org, y'all, if you want to support small business, small bookstops, you can look there and see if it's there. When you buy it there, then they send money to a local bookstore. I don't know how that works, but that's what the commercials say. And do you do you hang on Instagram? What's your website? Where can they find you for more?Brooke Siler 55:17  I think it's pretty simple. So it's BrookeSilerPilates, all one word, and that's the website. That's my Instagram handle, that's my Gmail account, BrookeSilerPilates@Gmail. (inaudible) It's a one-stop shop. Yeah, so you can and I'm very I do like, I am social. I do like sharing and hearing back from people. I feel like it's really funny on Instagram. I'll put something up and be like, tell me what you think. And everyone's like, this is great, but nobody answers like, the question, yeah. I'm like, no, no. I really mean it, like I actually want to be in a conversation with you, but.Lesley Logan 55:52  Yeah, no, I feel the same. Brooke, they don't, they don't do it for this year. Brooke Siler 55:55  Yeah. I don't need the flattery, like, thank you, but I don't need that. I just really, actually want to know what do you think and what do you what are you doing? And, yeah.Lesley Logan 56:04  Yeah, yeah. Well, you know what, that'll be our next that'll be our next thing is like, how do we get women to share what they're actually thinking without thinking what they're thinking is wrong, you know? But that's, that's another in the next 25 years. Okay, I feel like I have tons of takeaways, but I still we have to in the show how we always end it with our Be It Action Items, so bold, executable, intrinsic or targeted, steps people can take to be it till they see it. What do you have for us? Well, whoever wants to go first?Brooke Siler 56:34  I mean, yeah. I mean, so, you know, I listened to another podcast you did where that came up, and I realized that it was the orthodontist. She was wonderful, and yeah, and I was thinking I felt quite similarly. I just kind of never believed that I couldn't, that I can't. I just do I don't, I don't sit. And there are things that I sit in question for sure, I think I have, like many women, you know, the fear of being judged. Who the hell wants that? There's nothing nice about that. So there are times that, like putting myself out there can definitely, I can feel stopped, but I'm, I believe very much in pushing through that. And I, I have had a Buddhist mentor since for like, 18 years now and so. And she's always like, you know, the only way out is through. So you just, you push through. You go through that. So I push through fear. Like, if I see fear, I'm gonna head toward it. It may take me a while, but I'm going toward that number one and number two. I don't know if it's just some innate sense of confidence. I just when I have an idea, I want to share it. And when you, when I think of it as being something that I'm sharing, it doesn't feel like it's a scary thing. I'm like, I love it. You said you love it. Let's just do it, it. It's just like that. So I think, for me, when I think of it as sharing, rather than me doing something for you, then to react to it's much it just makes it much more palatable to move forward, because I love sharing. I'm a group, I'm a group, I'm a, I'm a. I like my independence. I like to be on my own. I do a lot of stu

THE MYSTERY I'm reading the first two verses from our discussion group Scripture reading last week. Ephesians 1:9-10 making known to us the mystery (Mysterion – not just hidden but unuttered [mu??] or not spoken until its prepared or set time) of his will, according to his purpose, which he set forth in Christ 10. A plan for the fullness of time, to unite all things in him, things in heaven and things on earth. (also expounded in Colossians 1.15-21) Some scholars think Paul wrote Ephesians and not Colossians and some think he wrote Colossians and not Ephesians. However, Paul's account of the ‘mystery' and the Plan in both epistles is identical. 3 questions  1. What is the mystery? The ‘Mystery made known' is the life of Jesus living and speaking God's will in us and through us.  2. What is the Plan to unite all things in Christ? The plan of uniting every created thing in Christ is God joining himself to his own creation through Jesus. Jesus entered into to our humanity and we enter into his divinity. Heaven and earth are joined together forever in him 3. What is the Gospel? Ephesians 3:3 by revelation He made known to me the mystery, as I have briefly written already [CH.1]... that the Nations (Ethnos-all ethnic groups, cultures, mankind) should be fellow heirs, of the same body, and partakers of His promise in Christ - through the gospel. THAT IS THE GOSPEL. THE MYSTERY Paul's revelation of this mystery which is the life of Jesus living and speaking God's will in us and through us by the Holy Spirit was spoken to the Ephesians and the Colossians and then written in 62 AD as his epistles to them from prison in Rome.  Colossians 1:26-29 the mystery (mysterion) which has been hidden from ages and from generations but now has been revealed to His saints - To them God willed to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles (or Nations ‘Ethnos' - all ethnic groups, cultures, mankind) which is Christ in you, the hope of glory THE PLAN What is the plan of uniting all of creation together in Christ?  The love between Father Son and Holy Spirit in Heaven before the time of creation was perfect and complete and They agreed together in all things in perfect truth (1John 5:7KJV). And that love and truth was compelled of itself (2 Corinthians 5:14) to overflow into the lives of all created beings to bless them. Firstly, the angels were created as pure spirit beings, spiritually higher than our physically limited humanity, (Hebrews 2:7). And no created being, angelic or human, possessed God's perfect capacity of this divine love and truth. But angels could come before the face of God and communicate and hear God speak, and that is why one imperfect angel called Lucifer fell in his pride and deception, and also why he tempted imperfect Adam and Eve to fall. The angels would have heard God say ‘Let us make man in our own image and let them have dominion over every living creature and over all the earth… So God created man in His own image… male and female He created them.' (Genesis 1:26,27).  The angels saw and celebrated the material creation from beginning to end (Job 38:4) and for Lucifer, this privileged dominion over everything in creation being given to these puny humans was too much for his pride and ego to accept, and he was outraged – No! That's my inheritance! And he took many other angels into his rebellion And the Bible records God's verdict upon his unjust claims. Isaiah 14:1-15 How you are fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! How you are cut down to the ground, You who weakened the nations! For you have said in your heart: I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God; I will also sit on the mount of the congregation On the farthest sides of the north; I will ascend above the heights of the clouds, I will be like the Most High.' Yet you shall be brought down to Sheol,To the lowest depths of the Pit.  (5 I wills + 5 Your will be done wounds of Jesus on the cross) And so Lucifer decided in his darkness and deception to prevent puny mortals from laying claim to their just inheritance. He provoked these lesser beings - Adam and Eve into a presumptuous rebellion against a perfect God, tempting them to disobey God and inciting them to resent God for not allowing them to eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil - believing that God was selfishly afraid that they would become like God if they did. So they ate the fruit and they took the darkness and deception into their souls, and from then on, our human souls were destined to live out from our discontented vulnerability, and to defend ourselves and justify ourselves and war against ourselves and other people. Human relationships drastically damaged But God had foreseen all of this, and he had planned a perfect plan before creation even began. He had decided to join himself as God, pure Spirit being, to his creation, by coming as Jesus the Son of the Father to live within puny vulnerable human form upon the earth. The Bible calls this astounding truth Reconciliation, which is translated from the Greek word katalasso, a “mutual transformation” of God and humanity into an entirely New Creation. And God took the first step to reconcile humanity in this cosmic merging of Being through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, overcoming the distrust and separation and hostility in us to God that was caused by sin.  Paul is the only one who explains Reconciliation in this way in verses like 2 Corinthians 5:18-2 ‘God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself. And Romans 5:10 about Jesus' death on the cross and his resurrection. The Holy Spirit gives us grace and faith to accept and live in that reconciliation, enabling us to overcome sin and a self-centered mindset. The Holy Spirit infuses divine love and truth into our hearts and minds, and giving us the gift of a New Heart and a renewed mind to know the truth of who God is and who we are. This is our salvation – the healing of our soul, and this is what God desires for all of us. God desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth (1Timothy 2:4).     THE GOSPEL The Gospel is the Plan of that mystery being declared to all the world as The Good News, as we read earlier in Ephesians 3.  Paul never preached the bad news The bad news often shared as being the gospel. IE. if you repent from your sins and ask God for forgiveness you won't go to hell.  I went to a church growth conference in Seoul Korea in the 1990's at Yonggi Cho's church. There were 700 of us pastors attending his 500,000 strong church. Cho was a former Buddhist and a very disciplined man of great influence in South Korea. He told us that many Christian authors including Peter Wagner and others you would know had interviewed him to write their books on church growth. He said they asked how it started and he'd tell them 'I prayed to God ' and they would write that down. Then they'd say, ‘what then?' and he'd say ‘I taught the people in small groups to study the word carefully and obey it' This was all written down. Then he said ‘the authors have sold a lot of books, writing down the principles and enlarging each principle, but they are not going to give you church growth because even though the principles are good that wasn't the way the church growth happened. What happened was God touched my life. God had given me some signs and wonders in my ministry especially in the villages, so I often preached out there and many people came to my meetings. They knew my discipline and zeal and I wanted to see them getting to know God. But something had to change in me for me to reach their hearts.  Cho told us what happened. He said he went out one day to a village and saw people on the side of the road and he said ‘are you coming to the meeting tonight?' They lifted their weary heads up and said no Pastor Cho, we are miserable enough - And when you preach you make it worse for us because we feel so condemned. You are so strict and holy, and you tell us what sinners we are, and we feel too unworthy to get close to God. Cho then told us – that was when he realised he was preaching the bad news of what they must do to be worthy – he was preaching discipline and zeal, and not God's goodness and grace. God changed him that day and everything else changed for him and for Seoul Korea.' So the mystery of his will is to lovingly unfold to us his plan to join us to his divine life – and that is the gospel. Once we know it and believe it we cannot unbelieve it, because when we pursue that truth with our full heart and all our mind it pursues us into every corner of our lives. As we now partake of our communion – the communion of the Body of Christ, remember how Paul admonished the Corinthian church because of internal factional disputing and judging of one another which finally created 36,000 denominations. Paul said they were holding their communion services in an unworthy manner. For he who eats and drinks in an unworthy manner eats and drinks judgment to himself, not discerning the Lord's body. For this reason many are weak and sick among you, and many sleep. For if we would judge ourselves, we would not be judged Rather than judge one another judge ourselves. (1Corinthians 13:30) We can be discerning of doubtful doctrinal emphases but not judge harshly. We can pray for more love and agreement and mercy, and pray for the Gospel of reconciliation, ‘Christ in us the hope of glory', be preached in all the world for a witness. Amen.

I Can Hear It Now 51-01-05 (04) The Fall of Seoul Korea - Edward R. Morrow

Many thanks to SRAA contributor, Dan Greenall, who shares the following recording and notes:Broadcaster: Maritime radio HLS Seoul KoreaDate of recording: October 31, 1998Frequency: 8.725 MHzReception location: Coe Hill, Ontario, CanadaReceiver and antenna: Panasonic RF-3100 and longwire antennaMode: Single Side BandNotes: Maritime radiotelephone station HLS in Seoul, Korea continued to operate in the late 1990's on shortwave. Instead of a repeating voice mirror, this station played Beethoven's "Ode to Joy" over and over so that the receiving station could tune them in. This recording is from October 31, 1998 at Coe Hill, Ontario, Canada, and the frequency they were using was 8725 kHz upper sideband. My receiver was a Panasonic RF-3100 hooked up to a long wire antenna.The station was identified by Richard "RD" Baker, editor of Communications Confidential, in the January 1999 issue of Popular Communications magazine. In his Reader Mailbag section, he wrote:"Dan Greenall in Ontario, Canada, has been hearing a new (at least to folks in North America) maritime marker on 8725.0 USB: Beethoven's 9th Symphony "Ode to Joy" is repeated. In trying to track this marker down, we sent the call out over the WUN Club's listserver. Costas Krallis in Greece, Fabrizio Magrone in Italy. Alex Wellner and Robin Harwood. both in Australia. all became involved. They soon began logging the marker on other maritime frequencies. Eventually, it was noted on 6513, 8725, 8797, 13161, and 17341. Only one station has those frequencies in common: HLS, Seoul Radio. South Korea. The marker was completely IDed within 32 hours!"

Hopefully, they're not dicks about it because if they are, they're the wrong person for you.Lesley Logan 0:17  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 0:58  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 holistic convo I had with Diana Min 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 or listen to this one then listen to that one. Do you know what? You do you. I had someone tell me they were bingeing out they were 70 episodes in to the Be It Pod. And if you'reBrad Crowell 1:18  Sorry, did you say 70? Lesley Logan 1:20  Yeah, they listened to 70 in a row. Brad Crowell 1:22  Well, they beat me.Lesley Logan 1:22  And they are getting so many. So shout out to you for like I'm obsessed with you already. Brad Crowell 1:31  Yeah, welcome to the fam. This is amazing. Lesley Logan 1:33  Yeah, yeah, so anyways, you can do that. And maybe you're doing that. And that's how you're here.Brad Crowell 1:38  You could. You could go listen to 70 episodes before you listen to this one, by the way.Lesley Logan 1:42  I mean, I talk fast, but I listen to me on 1.5 speed. So, you know. Brad Crowell 1:46  Yeah, binge out. Lesley Logan 1:47  So today is February 22nd 2024. And it's National Margarita Day. It's also like 2-2-2 so that might be your angel number. Shout out Happy Birthday to Cindy. I got a few friends whose babies are due on this day. Like I hope everyone who wanted to get married today was able to make it happen.Brad Crowell 2:04  Sorry, what? Who has...? Angels have numbers? Lesley Logan 2:07  Oh, you don't know about angel number?Brad Crowell 2:09  Do I get an angel number?Lesley Logan 2:10  Yeah, you can just get one. Brad Crowell 2:11  Where do you get it? Lesley Logan 2:12  I'm pretty sure you could just... I don't know. Brad Crowell 2:13  Do you order that? Is it, like, from Michael's? Lesley Logan 2:15  It's from House of Intuition. No, no, it's not like angels but it's like your angel number. So you could be like 3-3-3-7-7-7 You know, like some people. That's why some people price things like 33.33 or like 22 It's all angels. Yeah.Brad Crowell 2:29  They're pricing things based on angels. Lesley Logan 2:30  Their angel numbers. Yeah. Which is a whole you know,Brad Crowell 2:34  I think that's like a triple woo, right there. Lesley Logan 2:36  That's triple woo. That's triple woo, so but back to it being 2-2-2. Perhaps your angel number or perhaps you celebrate like me. National Margarita Day. So every February 22nd we come together for National Margarita Day to pay homage to our favorite celebratory cocktail, the margarita, which is triple sec, tequila, and lime juice which was created in 1938 in Mexico and it's widely considered the official drink of having fun. And did you know you are going to get a history lesson on margarita today? You did not. But you are getting one right now and here's how I recommend it. I recommend going light on the triple sec. I recommend doing none to be completely honest. And doing a margarita, so it's called skinny style which like, like, I really don't know that I love that word anymore but like it's a margarita that doesn't have the triple sec, and less sugar, add the spice. Truly you cannot and if you want an even easier margarita to make, which I always obsessed with this restaurant in Seoul Korea because they do it the way that I like to do it which is regular kombucha Blanco tequila, or you could do a a Cristalino and a squirt of lime. You will make yourself a kombucha margarita, a kombucha-rita and I love that too. So anyways, that's my recipes for a margarita. So you also didn't ask for but you're getting anyways. Brad's typing, so I'm sure you can all hear that. Lesley Logan 3:54  So what's coming up right now, we are going to do a summer camp for OPC. So my Pilates lovers of all levels, that is going to happen this summer, it's going to be in June, you want to go to opc.me/workshops. We're actually going to have a lot of different teachers doing workshops and work out and you'll be able to buy into each one based on the equipment you have access to which is really, really exciting. So opc.me/workshops. And then also what's coming up even closer is a March Matness and Brad Crowell 4:23  March Matness. Lesley Logan 4:24  Yeah, so not madness. But I know I'm from Vegas, and you're like, oh, she's betting, you bet I am butBrad Crowell 4:29  You bet your sweet mat, I am.Lesley Logan 4:35  You bet your sweet mat, I'm betting. I'm gonna bet on the cutest uniforms. So because that typically is how things went, right? So um, so no, March Matness is the nerdy way of doing your mat work. And I always teach with the order. So March Matness is something I'm like, I do this all the time, but I know that you might not and so we're actually doing a free mat accountability challenge in honor of March Matness and you can go to opc.me/challenge to sign yourself up, you can set yourself ahead of time it's free. You'll get accountability emails. Each week, we'll send you a different length of mat class. You can build up your stamina, build up your endurance, and nerd out with us.Brad Crowell 5:13  Do it. Lesley Logan 5:14  Do it. Brad Crowell 5:14  Also, it's free.Lesley Logan 5:16  Did we say it's free? It's because it's free. Lesley Logan 5:19  It's free. Lesley Logan 5:19  Yeah. And then this says OPC TBD. So that's fun. Oh, here we go.Brad Crowell 5:25  Oh no, read the rest of the sentence. To be determined exactly when but the presale for the Barrels Flashcards Deck is coming up. You can get on the waitlist at opc.me/flashcardwaitlist all one word flashcardwaitlist. Lesley Logan 5:40  All one word. Brad Crowell 5:41  Why would one do that, Lesley?Lesley Logan 5:43  So if you love the spine corrector or the ladder barrel, you want to nerd out about these things. I'm doing a whole deck with those plus the C shape where the small barrel will be in them. And I promise you on all those. And so we already have I just wrote an email to those who are on the waitlist. You got it already. But we have set the date of the photoshoot which is a humongous outlier in the project, which means we are moving even more forward and closer to presale dates, because the photoshoot was dependent on the photographer, and my schedule and Brad's schedule lining up because guess who's not driving herself to L.A. by herself? That's me.Brad Crowell 6:19  I'm happy to drive both of us to L.A. on your behalf.Lesley Logan 6:23  Yes, thank you. So it's coming up. Probably going to be in the May-ish. We've we've now bumped April off. It's definitely in the May-ish area maybe June. But anyways, it's coming up and you want to be on the waitlist because if you're not on the waitlist, you will not hear about it because we will not promote it publicly. Brad Crowell 6:23  Yeah, so TLDR those on the waitlist, get the hookup on the presale price.Lesley Logan 6:46  And that's the best price will ever be (inaudible) Argentina and Pilates lovers who want a discount on the things because it's not happening. The truth is eLevate round four has kicked off, and it's a great group. They're amazing. They're so amazing. And I have so many people ask about a mentorship program. This is for teachers, and it is quite the investment. So I want you to hear about now because I want you to get on the waitlist now because I want you to be able to save up and be able to sign up. And the truth is we're probably going to start opening up applications earlier because we've so many people who are interested in 2025. I want to make sure that we can hold space for people, create the right groups, and you can save the date and start you know saving up your investment for that. But you so I don't know where you go. But it's lesleylogan.coBrad Crowell 7:39  Yeah, if you're interested. Just go to lesleylogan.co/elevate. And if you're like, oh, wait, I missed this. How do I get involved now? Well, just let us know. Just chat to us. We'll figure it out. But basically, we're gonna be booking into next year already. And then I am super fired up. We only have a few spots left. Lesley Logan 8:03  Literally only a few spots left. Literally. Brad Crowell 8:06  In our Cambodia trip this year. It's going to be an epic group. Lesley Logan 8:12  It almost sold out just from the people on the waitlist. Brad Crowell 8:14  Yep. That's true. So that's fucking amazing. We're so excited. We can't even tell you how fired up this week this trip, we're gonna make some really fun changes to some of the activities that we've done in the past. We're introducing some new cool stuff because Lesley and I had just to hang out for like a week, last time and do some extra cool stuff that we haven't done ever. So we thought that was so rad, we decided you know what our next retreat has to incorporate this stuff ourselves. What you know, and you guys get to experience it. So it's going to be super, super fun. This year we're gonna be there October 6th through the 11th 2024. If you are interested go to crowsnestretreats.com, crowsnestretreats.com. All the information is right there and yeah, yeah, all the things so, join us. Lesley Logan 9:04  Okay, that we have a lot going on. Obviously. There's something for you. There's something for you before we talk about Diana is there an audience question?Brad Crowell 9:11  Oh, there's sure is, Lesley. This is from Jessica on Instagram. Hey, LL, why did you remove your beautiful, luscious, glorious, gorgeous, lash extensions?Lesley Logan 9:32  So I, yes, Jessica sent this in and I had a few people send this in. So clearly, I didn't prepare you all and talk about it enough. Because what has happening is I'm giving mascara reviews lately. That's my new my new obsession is mascara reviews. So the the thing is, I got lash extensions in L.A. and I loved them and the girl who did them was like so good at making them really look great and even when they kind of like thinned out and fell out, they still looked really natural. And I loved it. And then I moved to Vegas. And I tried really hard, I tried several people. And I just felt like every time I saw myself from the side, I could see the lash extensions. And I hated that. I hated how fake it looked. It just didn't make me excited. And then we were doing these traveling trips, like month long. And then it was even harder for me to find anyone to fill in the gaps that were happening because the way they were falling out just wasn't looking natural. And I was just just driving me nuts, couldn't find anyone good enough anywhere. They're all nice and lovely. Just not good enough. And so I got to a point where I was like, fuck it, not doing it anymore. Maybe I'll get my nails done instead. So I also didn't like to drive there. I didn't like the, it took an hour, all the things just like got to a point where I was like, I am going to take $250 a month and give it to myself and go get my nails done. And so the harsh thing was though, you guys, holy frickin moly. I looked like a mole rat. Like I don't even know like a little pink mice. Brad Crowell 11:04  Never, babe, never. Lesley Logan 11:05  No, I literally took them off. And I come out.Brad Crowell 11:09  You're too beautiful to ever be considered a mole rat.Lesley Logan 11:11  Let me tell you what, Brad, so I walked into my friend's bathroom where I take my lashes off with olive oil myself. And I walk out and Brad goes, whoa, you look really different. And I was like, thank you.Brad Crowell 11:26  I thought about saying no one's gonna notice love. Nobody.Lesley Logan 11:29  No, all I know is that like, you don't realize how pink or some people are blue, your eyelids are until you don't have lashes to block and cover it. And I had to teach the next day. And of course, the first thing the first person said to me is like, where's your lashes? And I was like, you know, when you're like, no one's gonna notice, no one's going to notice and then the first person says that and you're like, yeah, so everyone can tell that I was looking like a mole rat. So I cried a little bit in the car. Brad Crowell 11:58  A mole rat is not a thing. There's not an animal called a mole rat.Lesley Logan 12:02  Well, I couldn't say if I was a mole or a rat. So it's like pink eyelids like a pink lab mouse. Anyways, so then I went to we got to Texas and you guys I was the first appointment on New Year's Day in a Sephora in the suburbs. This poor girl read my thing and saidBrad Crowell 12:20  Oh, I'm sorry. It is a thing. It's called a naked mole rat. Lesley Logan 12:23  Oh, does that look like me? Brad Crowell 12:26  It's, they can't fucking see. I forgot about them. No, they're like underground animals. And they just, they have the big two front teeth. Lesley Logan 12:37  Yeah, so except for I have a big nose and look at them. No eyelashes. Look at these. No eyelashes. No, they're just nothing but mouth and teeth.Brad Crowell 12:46  It's a mouse-size rodent. They're used in biomedical research. And then they. Lesley Logan 12:53  Wonder why? Because they have no eyelashes. They have no eyelashes. So anyways, back to me. So you guys because I went to be it till you see it because I was like I refuse to like, feel ugly. So I went to I went to the Sephora. It was Monday morning on New Year's Day. 10 am. And I said you need to help me with my eyes because I don't feel pretty anymore. And this poor girl was like, holy fuck this is my first appointment for the new year. I was just like someone's going to have to help me I don't look pretty. So she taught me how to make my eyes not look like a mole rat and or a pink lab mouse. And it took over five weeks before I could put mascara on anything. There was nothing but mascara on. I've since tried four mascaras and I'm gonna tell you right now I like the one from ILIA volumizing. But I like the mascara from Hourglass. So here's what I'm thinking. I'm thinking I'm gonna try to take the one from ILIA and shove it in the Hourglass. I don't know. I don't know. But I've also at the point that you're hearing this. I have booked another Sephora thing because I'm now at the point where I can learn how to do eyeliner. And what I'm completely became aware of is that I have no idea how to do eyeliner because I haven't had to do eye makeup in seven years, six years. And so like it's not it's not easy and also have one eye that's a different shape than the other and you have to do your eyeliner a different way.Brad Crowell 14:18  Just stick with me. I'll teach you.Lesley Logan 14:19  So Jessica, I got rid of them because I wasn't liking them. And now here I am spending $250 on Sephora appointments and mascara, trying to figure out how to make myself look pretty again. So thank you.Brad Crowell 14:35  Did you know that mole rats have wars? They literally have mole rat wars. That's a whole thing. They usually break out if an intruder is detected in the colony, if another female is challenging the queen or if a colony is in the process of establishing a new queen after the previous one dies, and they are bloody skirmishes or aggressive encounters in the town. Lesley Logan 15:00  Oh my gosh. This one looks scary. Oh, I'm having nightmares. Oh my gosh I'm having nightmares. Well let's go talk about Diana Min.Brad Crowell 15:14  Okay, now let's talk about Diana Min. Diana is a dynamic empowerment coach and spiritual mentor, her journey from a troubled past to a spiritual coach is both moving and inspiring with a focus on holistic healing and personal growth. Diana helps individuals navigate their paths to self-discovery, to work through their inner blockages and step into the power and live the life they're destined to live.Lesley Logan 15:42  Yeah, and it's really cool, because we get to talk about things I think are really great reminders. And at anytime, like I think this that what she was saying is just like a really good reminder, because she was talking about new levels, new devils. And she also brought up our favorite thing, which is like life happens, or as we like to say, from Tori Gordon life, life. Brad Crowell 15:58  Life, lifes.Lesley Logan 15:59  Life, lifes. Need a bumper sticker. Anyways, she brought up like, every time you're trying to expand it to a new level, you're going to hit blockages of either your inner self or your belief systems or those things that you've inherited from your ancestor. Brad Crowell 16:12  Yeah, there's a couple of really interesting points here. One thing that I that I found interesting about this, she said, a lot of the clients that she works with, will come to her and say, I don't even know where I pick this thing up. Right? And she's like, well, you didn't necessarily pick it up. It could have been built in.Lesley Logan 16:34  Yeah, no. And also, it's built-in because of like, however your parents were raised, and what they are raised in, those belief systems get poured into you as you're a little baby. And like, you know, like, it just becomes something that's normal for you.Brad Crowell 16:46  Or generational traumatic, like trauma, like, you know, like, like, we're watching a really interesting show right now about the survivors from the Holocaust and their kids. You know, and how, it's just fascinating to understand the cultural implications of that. Lesley Logan 17:08  Yeah, no, it's it's really, I mean, it is very interesting. Also, I mean, we could talk about like, even in our own families is how things are not talked about or talked about that is stuff that you carry on. And if you don't, if you're not sure what you don't talk about things in your family, then it makes it really hard to talk about things in your own life. And even though no one told you, you don't talk about pain, you don't talk about pain. So like it becomes the things you pick up. So anyways, she, she, she brought up new level, new devils, and I want to talk about that a little bit. And also like the, as you expand to new levels, you hit a blockage, of course you are, it's the the easiest way to describe this is that if you're going to the gym, and you pick up, you go to the gym for the first time, you cannot pick up like a 20 pound dumbbell to do bicep curls 15 times, it's not gonna happen. So you're gonna have this blockage of I can't pick up that weight, and you work your way down to a weight that you can do. And then you're going to get stronger, and then you're going to be able to take that excess to another level. And then you hit another blockage because you have to build a strength and the coordination and the stamina. The same thing goes with your life. You're, if you are if you're like, okay, I'm this amazing person who loves myself, and I'm gonna go out and put myself out there, guess what, you're gonna hit with rejection that you hadn't hit before. And now you have to learn how to overcome rejection. It doesn't mean you're not worthy of stepping outside of your comfort zone, it just means that we have to be prepared for it and we're gonna learn if you we've always used the eggs, the example of like video games, like you get to a new level and there's a new bad guy and there's a new boss and so so I think it's the more you prepared for that, the easier it is for you to when those things happen come and it doesn't mean you don't have like a divine tantrum. That's what I'm calling that I did yesterday, it's a divine tantrum.Lesley Logan 17:29  So glad I was here to experience the divine. Lesley Logan 19:03  But you, but like, you kind of have to get really clear on like, what's frustrating you so that you can take on the next level in your life.Brad Crowell 19:12  Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, you know, what I found really interesting was, about this, too, was one of the, one of the things that she was challenged with was her personal relationship with her ex. She said that she was with someone who was convinced that she basically needed to get on meds. And she was like, no, I have borderline personality disorder, which is a learned behavior. Right? And there are symptoms. I'm familiar with this from my past experiences in you know, with my relationships, but there can be symptoms like that stem from BPD, like depression or whatever, and you can be treating those things with meds. But many times those are symptoms of the BPD. It's not the root, right? And I found it really interesting. She didn't really go into it. But she basically said, yeah, you know, the BPD. And these other things were a response to the traumatic childhood that she had, where she had a, you know, an ego-maniacal mom who treated her like shit and abused her, emotionally abused her, her whole life. Right? And so consequently, she was dealing with all this baggage and it took a really long time to work through. I you know, I find that really encouraging to know that that's possible to come out the other side. She also said something that I found really interesting too, said she's done Ayahuasca 200 plus times. Lesley Logan 20:57  I have, good for her, it's a lot for me, I am afraid to do it one time because the vomiting but I really can't do it.Brad Crowell 21:04  Yeah, but I feel like, I feel like Lesley Logan 21:08  I was, I already sound like someone is stabbing me to death when I vomit a little bit.Brad Crowell 21:17  I could attest, the dogs were really worried.Lesley Logan 21:22  No one would be, like, people be like, can I have my money back because someone got murdered during my Ayahuasca.Brad Crowell 21:29  Honestly, I feel like you probably I would guess, and I'm not experienced. And I don't know, I've never actually done Ayahuasca and I've not studied it to know what would happen with 200 times however, my my gut feeling is that the first at the beginning, when you're first getting started doing something like that, you're probably going to have a more visceral reaction than the 200th time. I would imagine. Lesley Logan 21:58  I'm sure that's very true. Brad Crowell 21:59  You can ride the wave, as it were like, you're not, probably, she's not puking her guts out every single time at this point. Because I would also hope that, you know, Ayahuasca really can create an environment in which you can make self-mental discoveries, self-discoveries, and I would hope that the 200th time you're not having like, like earth-shattering foundational change discoveries on time number 200. Because if you are like, there's no hope for anybody. So.Lesley Logan 22:28  I know, I know. I know. Well, I if you, if you, listeners, if you have done Ayahuasca more than once, will you let me know what the vomiting, like, how, does it get less? Does it get less? Anyways, our friend Michael, who's been on the show several times, you guys love him. Brad Crowell 22:43  And our friend Steven. Lesley Logan 22:44  And our friend, Steven, Michael did it for the first time and he shared with us his journey. And I'll leave it to his podcast to share all the details. But like, he, I just was like, I don't know. heBrad Crowell 22:59  He said, I did that. I'm good.Lesley Logan 23:04  Yeah, he he learned a lot. Anyways, let's move. Let's move on. I think that's amazing. But what else did you love?Brad Crowell 23:09  I really loved when she started talking about moving forward in your life. And, you know, achieving the next step as it were in the journey. And for her, it was about seeing success begin to come together. And she specifically said, you can't do this stuff alone. Right? You can't do. You can't. Nothing happens alone in this life. Like it is super, super rare that it's one person who's like completely isolated and picks themselves up and changes everything. Like that doesn't really happen. Right? So she said, I certainly didn't do this alone. I needed help. She actually said she also had a therapist. And she didn't feel like she was making the progress that she expected, which is why she started to explore the things such as Ayahuasca, but she also sounded like she still has a therapist today. So she began to, you know, see the value in surrounding yourself with people who can be a sounding board or help you move forward along the path. Right? So people who have built something great, did not do it alone. It's what she mentioned. And she said, the hardest thing is asking for support. But it's key, right? And it'll make you face, she said, it'll make you face your shadows. Right? And I thought that was an interesting way of, you know, kind of characterizing your demons or whatever however you want to describe it. She called it her shadows. And she said that it's important to allow people to sow into your life, that when you give someone, this is, this is twofold in my and Gaia's opinion here. Yeah. It's twofold. You know, you're gonna give somebody power to sow into your life, to hold you accountable to value the opinion that they are sharing with you. But you've got to be intentional about whose opinion carries weight. Because if you let everybody's opinion carry weight, then you're going to create chaos in your in, you know, for yourself in your mind for you know, in your journey, but it's important to allow some people to sow into you. Right?Brad Crowell 23:10  Yeah, I mean it's, it's like how the world works. It's like the it's like we were, you know, we work with one of our coaches, we've had Rory on before, like, he's like you give first and then what happens is you get so when you give, you're sowing into someone else's life and reciprocity is real. So like, if you are needing to be getting more of this, who can you go pour into? Because then it's going to come to you. What you need is going to come to you. It doesn't pass you. So I love that.Brad Crowell 25:50  Yeah, yeah. And, you know, I think I think it's interesting, right? Because there's like, we've talked about this before about, like, leading people, having peers and being led. I don't think that's how we described it before. But, you know, the people who are behind you, the people who are even with you, the people who are ahead of you, you know.Lesley Logan 26:10  Plus, minus, equal.Brad Crowell 26:11  Plus, minus, equal, there we go. That's what we talked about before. And I think, you know, it's super important to, to have all three of those. You know?Lesley Logan 26:22  Oh, essential. If you're the smartest person in your room, you are in the wrong room. Brad Crowell 26:26  Yep. Yeah. But also, you know, I mean, I think that life is more fun when you have equals with you going through the journey together. But it's still important to have someone ahead of you who is the plus, who can sow into your life and provide guidance. Hopefully, they're not dicks about it. Because if they are, they're the wrong person for you, you know, but to have a sounding board. Lesley Logan 26:47  Sometimes, you have to hire those people, guys. Brad Crowell 26:48  Well, yes, actually, she said that the best thing she ever did was hire a coach.Lesley Logan 26:52  Yeah, I mean, we hire our pluses. And then there's some people who like, our pluses in our life in some areas, and we're pluses in their life in other areas like that does happen. But like, we just got off a phone call with one of our equals. She texted us. This just happened and we like picked up the phone. Like talked her off the ledge on that thing. Share what we're just going through and we're gonna go wow, okay, we got this. Everyone's got this. Here's what like it's, you gotta have those people. So I love it. Brad Crowell 27:19  Yeah. 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 Diana Min? She said find someone who is already doing what you're doing or someone who you admire and follow their footsteps. She said most of them started one step at a time, just way long ago. And when you're looking at a big picture, or this massive goal that you've created, it can be really intimidating. But when you break that down, and you're making one step at a time, it allows it to not feel quite as overwhelming. I particularly like the the idea of finding someone who's been where you're at. Honestly, when I was in college, one of my professors, you know, I told him, I said, yeah, I just want to be the world's greatest, undiscovered trombone player, and play in a hole in the wall bar in New York City for the rest of my life. Lesley Logan 28:27  What kind of dream was that? Brad Crowell 28:29  That was my dream. That's literally why I went to Berkeley. Lesley Logan 28:31  You just wanted to be so amazing that no one discover you, you're gonna play in a hole in the wall.Brad Crowell 28:37  No, I would play in all the cool places. But I would just play... Lesley Logan 28:40  Like someone's going to discover you? Like, no, no, never.Brad Crowell 28:43  I wasn't even trying to be discovered. I just wanted to play and be amazing. And and he said, hey, man, that's really cool but do you know anybody doing that? And I was like, no. He's like, well, I would imagine that they probably want more, the people who are in that position, I would say, why don't you go sit in these clubs and start to get to know some of these people and ask them if they're excited about it. And I thought, that's not a bad idea. So that's what I started doing, you know. And what I found is that most of them had far bigger ambitions than that. They certainly wouldn't want to just, you know, get paid 50 bucks a night to play. They were looking for more and I found that interesting, but I do, now that's my advice to anyone who's like, oh, man, I want to go to med school because I want to be a plastic surgeon. I'm like, hey, before you even go to med school, find a plastic surgeon and say, hey, I am a really excited 18-year-old. I'm shopping for colleges right now. And I think I want to be a plastic surgeon. Could I shadow you in your office for a couple of weeks and just like, see how it works? See what you do?Lesley Logan 30:06  Yeah. No, I love that advice. I mean, like, that's the same thing. Like, for example, if I want to be on more podcasts, I think about the person who's not the same as me, but similar, similar type of person. And when I look at what podcasts have they been on, and I can, like follow in that footsteps, right? Like you don't, you don't have to, you're not not there's very few unless you're creating the next level of AI and you are on the cutting edge of technology, which if you areBrad Crowell 30:39  Then you're making something that no one's ever done before.Lesley Logan 30:41  Like, if you are and you're listening to this podcast, hi, we should, how did you find this? But, from my research of this audience, almost every single one of you has a dream that does, it's in existence right now, which means it's absolutely possible and someone has done what you want to do. And so you can take one footstep and from the other, you can look what they've done and you can almost go okay, here is a path and then also with what my favorite takeaway was. first check with your body, is it a full body yes? So if you are kind of looking for the person that's in front of you, like does that sound like the right because there's probably, if you wanna be an actress, there are 50 amazing actors we could all name right now they all had a different journey all had a different one and you can figure out the full body yeses. And then she's gonna want you, she said, you want to like having like the right spiritual healer, but you can do this with anything. You're a life coach, a therapist, anything. So make sure your body says yes, look at testimonials, and then have a consult with them. Anyone you're going to hire, you should have a consult with them. So you can, there are ways to get out of whatever you're doing and get yourself to the next level with both of these Be It Action Items right here.Brad Crowell 31:54  Pretty amazing.Lesley Logan 31:55  Way to go. Diana, thank you for making that easy for us. Brad Crowell 31:57  Love it. Lesley Logan 31:58  I love you.

In episode 36 of the 'NoSoKoPo', Jay introduces details of the shows's upcoming special guest, James Turnbull, author/founder of The Grand Narrative (https://thegrandnarrative.com) and does so by recording a 'live in Saigon' segment, just before his flight to South Korea, where he intends to spend a few months. You'll not only hear a tiny piece of this interview with James Turnbull at the start but even a little more at the end of the epsiode.Once again, Jay touches on the Korean influence in Vietnam, speaks a little about Chuseok (and the Asian mid Autumn festival in general), the Busan International Film Festival 2023 (BIFF) and the upcoming and 18th London Korean Film Festival (LKFF - more details over at MiniMiniMovie.com) and the soon-to-be-10th anniversary of the tragic Sewol ferry (세월호) incident.A moment is also taken to explain the direction Jay - and hopefully Tim too - will take this Not So Korean Podcast in the future. Yes... A lot is covered in this special episode but perhaps the big question is... Will Jay, on this 9th time in South Korea stay to experience his first cold December there?

We had the Meta-Cast was poppin' down @postofficestudios this past weekend. We were live in Downtown Tacoma at Post Office Studios as well as across the world in Seoul Korea,  s/o @michaelscottpierce for making it all happen & s/o to each and every person who curiously rolled into the studio ‘cause they wanted to know and understand just what in the fuck was going on! And it was a lot! We had food from @the.cooking.goddess to get us started for the episode and then I just pressed play and we rocked for a few hours and had multiple guests on, too many to name. So thank you if you dropped in just to say hi or if you happened to Grace the mic. I appreciate it, LIKEITORNOT. Again, huge s/o to @djqj_ & @postofficestudios for allowing me to use the space☝

I Can Hear It Now 51-01-05 (04) The Fall of Seoul Korea - Edward R. Morrow

Reading from Chapter 4 Rhema. The Fourth Dimension a book

Welcome to the 10th episode of Outcast, featuring Eric Lee. Eric is a missionary kid who was born in Seoul Korea but was raised in Kunming, China. He is currently a Senior at Gordon College double majoring in Business Administration and Economics and minoring in Innovation and Social Enterprise. He is an entrepreneur, loves to think creatively, and is an aspiring Strategy/Management Consultant. In this episode, Eric discusses his cultural identity between his experiences in China and Korea, his first experience living in the United States, and his time in the Korean military. He also includes his heart for the gospel in the business world and expresses how being a missionary kid changed his view on finance and the idea of supporting missionary families and students. Through his passion for the business world, Eric hopes to use his resources to impact the kingdom of God in mighty ways. Please enjoy this conversation with Eric.

Lane talks about the tragic events that happened in his second home SEOUL KOREA... We then get into the idea of going to the moon and what that looked like. I'm on the fence but, I'm also up for debate/discussion. I have insane flash burn from welding so even writing this hurts my eyes. BARBARIAN the movie is lit but also wtf... let's pray America hasn't completely lost its mind and next Wednesday is a great day and the start of rationality around the world.. Enjoy 

The 4:20 Crew is back with their smoked out take on the news stories of the week. We get into Kanye's newest apology, the tragedy in Seoul Korea, a Black Adam spoiler, a mom arrested for letting her 10 year old get a tattoo, an Amazon driver killed by dogs, Nick Cannon expecting baby number 12, a woman getting eaten by a python, and more stuff from our group chat. Fire up the ZA... It's 4:20 In Vegas...

In all my years I have never heard of anything like what just happened in Seoul South Korea in Oct 29,2022! Halloween a highly anticipated and celebrated event that gathers local and foreigners alike to celebrate in the streets of Seoul's capital has ended in tragedy. The death toll is rising and it is all said to be from Cardiac Arrest!?!? Is it the vaccine, is it the crowd cramping, is it reminiscent of the Travis Scoot event? Wtf happened? CNN‘S Will Ripley reported in this event and just happened to be in Seoul has the event unfolded. He shared an Instagram post in Seoul Korea captioned “Seoul Searching” and 12 hours later 151 souls are lost in Seoul Korea. What went wrong and how can it be prevented from happening in the future? (2 Peter 3:3-14)

Taking leave to travel the world and paddleboard off the coast of every continent was Billy's plan. He never thought an emotional breakdown in Korea would change his life forever.In this episode, Billy Lahr, the host of The Mindful Midlife Crisis Podcast, shares how his life's path became crystal clear to him after his breakdown. He's been focused on navigating his own midlife crisis mindfully and now helps others do the same.Listen to his story and how today he is helping others with a program he and his business partner are launching called Reflect, Learn, and Grow.

Cara Jones was born into a family who belonged to the Unification Church, popularly known as the Moonies.  Her family didn't just belong to the Monies - they were very senior in the church's hierarchy and her memberships in both the church and her family were inextricably linked.  She grew up as a very active member of the Moonies and ultimately found herself standing in the Olympic Stadium in Seoul Korea, along with thousands of similarly dressed brides and grooms, marrying a man she barely knew. Although she had been a big believer in the church teachings, something didn't feel quite right to her, even as she loudly proclaimed her commitment to the church and the man she had just married.   Join us for this episode as we explore Cara's journey out of the church as she navigated the path to finding her own voice and forging a new relationship with her parents.     Tell the truth or be haunted by an unlived life.  ~ Cara Jones   BIO: Cara Jones is a story coach, writer and former Emmy Award Winning journalist. She is the founder of film production company Storytellers for Good and director of the film Blessed Child (which premiered at DOC NYC in 2019 ). The film is a personal journey documentary about leaving her family's faith, one that is famous for arranged marriages and mass weddings. The 7 year journey of making the film inspires her current work as a coach helping entrepreneurs untether their voices through the telling of their personal stories.

S. operative flies to Siam to rescue an American held by the Japanese. After witnessing a Japanese decapitation, a daring escape is made from a Japanese prison camp. Part of the system cue has been deleted. Are you willing to undertake a dangerous mission behind the enemy line knowing that you may never return alive?

The Eyes of Buddha is the story of an American OSS agent who went deep in to enemy territory to enlist the help of a nation which had declared war on the United States is a story suggested by actual incidents recorded in the Washington files of the Office of Strategic Services.
