In today's episode, I sit down with author, speaker, and thought leader David Fullmer, creator of the Becoming Seven framework, to talk about building a life guided by rhythm, gratitude, and intentional choices. We discuss why so many people resist personal growth, how simple daily habits shape lasting change, and why aligning with the right people and energy creates opportunities that cannot be planned. David shares the inspiration behind assigning a meaningful principle to each day of the week, while I explain how gratitude, awareness, and eliminating what is unnecessary help shorten the distance between problems and resolutions, creating a more purposeful and abundant life.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
In this Fuck Yeah Friday episode, Lesley Logan makes the case for celebrating the small stuff instead of holding your wins hostage until everything feels perfect. She shares an honest rant about technology that overpromises, a candid retirement-planning win with Brad, and a listener who finished all ten Spring Training classes. She digs into why tiny, bite-sized celebrations are what actually turn good intentions into habits. It is a warm, grounded reminder that the thing you just did is already worth honoring.

Brad Crowell 0:01 Fuck yeah. Lesley Logan 0:02 Get ready for some wins. Welcome to the Be It Till You See It podcast where we talk about taking messy action, knowing that perfect is boring. I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started. Lesley Logan 0:48 Welcome back to the Be It Till You See It podcast. This is our Fuck Yeah Friday. This is where we share some wins, we get some mantras, we get to just be in each other's lives a little bit. I want to know what's going on with you. Send it to me, right? Send me in your wins, send me what you're working on. Send us the topics that you're wanting us to do solo episodes on, or get some interviews on. Also, I just want to say thank you to those of you who have bought flash cards or joined OPC recently, because your support of OPC is what powers this podcast. So, if you have not checked out what we have at OPC, we've got some really great work and get stuff for you, and so if you're Pi curious, Pilate's curious, we've got stuff for you, don't have to be a Pilates expert to join OPC, is for people who want access and accountability to their Pilates practice, and so big thank you, big shout out to all of you. Lesley Logan 1:33 Okay, maybe I should welcome OPC members who join, who are Be It Pod listeners, I don't know if I should do that, but maybe you should do that, maybe we should do a little shout out, so you can hear your name. It's fun to hear your name. It's fun to hear your name on a podcast, especially this one, because it's top 1% podcast, right? Okay, so my "I need a moment" is that I'm currently sitting on my phone because it won't stop dinging, even though it's on do not disturb, and my frustration and my rant is, okay, what? What is Do Not Disturb for if I get disturbed on it, and it's like, oh, well, if your favorite, so your favorite thing get through, because, of course, I want my husband to get through, but then it dings on him texting me, and it's like, well, why, why are you doing this? I do Do Not Disturb for a reason, so how do I get to totally turn off, but then you can't have it turned off, because what if someone has an emergency? Then Brad did something to his phone, so nothing gets through, which means literally there was one day when our websites went down, his sister and I are trying to call him, and I'm doing the double call, and all this stuff. We got to the point where I almost sent my father to the house to wake him up, because we're like, "We need to talk to you, and we couldn't get through. So I'm annoyed that Do Not Disturb work so badly that my husband has turned his phone to a place where we can't even call through, and it doesn't work at all for me, and that my phone is beeping, and I have to sit on it. Why do this podcast? Because in those last episodes, you probably heard it dinging, and I apologize for that. That's annoying. But, why? The thing about technology that pisses me off is, don't tell me it's great, and it's making my life easier when it's making my life shitty. You know what I mean? But then, if we don't have it, then it's like, well, that's gonna suck, right? That will totally suck.Lesley Logan 3:06 So, anyway, all right, now a win, because if you get to complain, you have to have a win, and when you're not, we talked about this last week, the win does not have to be in the same complaint, doesn't have to be from that, because that I don't want to talk, I want to be like, oh, so and so died, but the win in it is, that's terrible shit, that's not it at all. My win is Brad and I adulted, we talked with our wealth managers, and things are looking good, and that's, you know, that's nice, because it doesn't feel like the world is doing well, and I am an elder millennial, and I want to be an elder millennial who gets to retire like I am, I want to retire, not today, don't freak out, but I want to be someone who gets to retire, that feels like a great.. we don't.. we've had guests on this podcast who talk about having your retirement persona. Let me tell you what it is. It is owner of a compound with my Golden Girl lifestyle, and all of my DINCs, dual income, no children couples, each having their own motel room, and then we have this massive Pilates studio slash gym, massive restaurant-style kitchen that we all get to cook in, so no one has to cook in their place, and no one has to have all these different, they just have a, their motel room is like their their place of living, their personal space, but then we have all these communal spaces we can take care of each other, because who else is going to take care of us? So, my win is that we're at least investing in a way that I was going to allow us to retire someday, more money would be better, but we're doing pretty good, considering what's going on in the world today. So, that's a nice win. Lesley Logan 4:36 So, now let me pull my phone out, so I can read one of yours. This is @lmarieinsta. I did all 10 Spring Training classes, and joined OPC! That's insane. @lmarieinsta, way to go. 10 classes, huge. I watched the ones that I wasn't in because I had to do the thing, and if you did, those were hard. Way to go, way to do all 10, proud of you. See, you guys, that's a win, right? When you're like, I committed to something, and I'm going to do what I can, and then you celebrate that you did it. We've got to normalize celebrating that you did the thing you want to do. It doesn't mean that you did this, shouldn't make a massive project, like I'm into spring training, and I'm celebrating that I did the spring training. That's the thing, right? Some of you are holding yourself hostage on celebrations that you're like, "I don't get to celebrate that I signed up for this language class until I can speak fluently. No, you have to celebrate, you signed up for it, you have to celebrate that you went to it, to celebrate that you quizzed yourself on it, to celebrate that you study a little extra, you have to celebrate these things. That's what makes them habits. That's why we do this. It's why we celebrate. So you get a little dopamine high, and then it makes it easier to do more things for yourself. People are always seeking out confidence support. You want to know where confidence support comes from? From doing the thing that you said you would do, and that's why you got to make it small. You got to make it bite-sized. You got to make it things that you can do. Lesley Logan 5:54 So, your mantra: I am a reflection of love and kindness. I am a reflection of love and kindness, a reflection of love and kindness. Yes, you are. All right, Be It babe. Thanks so much for listening. I hope you are loving these Friday episodes.

When the Chiropractor Became the Patient: Dr. Jason Gilbert on Mercury Toxicity and Healing Episode Description What happens when a chiropractor who has spent decades helping other people heal suddenly becomes the patient himself? In this episode of Conversations with a Chiropractor, Dr. Stephanie Wautier talks with Australian chiropractor, author, educator, and World Surf League sports practitioner Dr. Jason Gilbert. Jason's career began with an unexpected move to South America, where he discovered that chiropractic care was largely unavailable. Armed with a portable table, a plastic spine, limited Spanish, and a deep belief in the body's ability to heal, he began treating patients in Peru and traveling through the Andes and Amazon. What started as a personal adventure grew into two decades of clinical work, television appearances, public education, and involvement in one of Latin America's earliest university chiropractic programs. Jason shares how a single television invitation brought dozens of families into his clinic, how his work eventually led him to host health programming, and what he learned while introducing chiropractic to communities that had never experienced it. But Jason's greatest lessons came when his own health began to fail. He describes developing severe symptoms after having dental amalgam fillings removed, eventually being told that his mercury level was dramatically elevated. That experience led him into functional medicine and changed the way he understood toxicity, nutrition, recovery, and the causes behind chronic symptoms. Jason also shares the spinal injury that ultimately required surgery, despite years of helping other patients avoid operations. His recovery introduced him to hyperbaric oxygen therapy, which later became an important part of his professional work. Stephanie and Jason explore chiropractic philosophy, spinal health, nervous system function, mercury toxicity, functional medicine, hyperbaric oxygen, surfing injuries, stress, sleep, hydration, nutrition, live-blood microscopy, ionized water, and the foundational habits that support health. This is a conversation about becoming a pioneer, learning through adversity, and discovering that even the practitioner sometimes has to become the patient. This episode includes personal experiences and discussion of chiropractic care, dental amalgam removal, mercury testing, spinal surgery, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, live-blood microscopy, alkaline or ionized water, supplements, and other wellness practices. The views and experiences shared belong to the guest and may include uses or claims that are not established for every condition. This episode is educational and is not a substitute for individualized medical or dental care. Consult qualified professionals before changing treatment, removing dental fillings, or beginning hyperbaric oxygen therapy.

Life moves fast. Between work, relationships, responsibilities, social media, and the constant pressure to keep up, it's easy to lose touch with yourself without even realizing it. In this episode, Andrew and Benjy explore one simple practice that can help you slow down, reconnect, and regain your sense of peace: Stop. Breathe. Feel. It sounds almost too simple, but learning to pause, become aware of your thoughts and emotions, and intentionally reconnect with yourself may be one of the most important life skills you can develop. The conversation also explores why so many people stay stuck in stress, how comparison and technology quietly shape our inner world, why self-awareness matters for healthy relationships, and how becoming more present can transform the way we approach recovery, marriage, parenting, and everyday life. If you've been feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or constantly distracted, this episode offers a practical place to begin. What you'll hear in this episode: Why stress has become the default for so many people The simple "Stop. Breathe. Feel." practice How to become more self-aware without overcomplicating it Why comparison and social media leave us emotionally drained The connection between presence, emotional regulation, and healthy relationships Why slowing down can actually help you grow faster Practical ways to reconnect with yourself throughout the day If this conversation resonates with you, consider sharing it with someone who could use a reminder to slow down and breathe.

The people who are quietly checking out at work usually hide it well. They still show up. Something has just gone quiet.

If you have built something that works but does not feel like freedom, or you manage people who have gone quiet, you will leave with four things you can use today.

In this episode of the Rest, Eat, Move podcast, Matt breaks down the often overcomplicated topic of inflammation, explaining that while acute inflammation is essential for healing, chronic inflammation—described as excessive, ongoing “heat” in the body—is at the root of nearly 90% of modern disease, including obesity, diabetes, cancer, hormonal imbalance, and mental health challenges. He emphasizes that food alone is not always the primary cause and highlights common symptoms such as skin issues, joint pain, digestive problems, low energy, weight gain, poor sleep, anxiety, and weakened immunity. Matt outlines five key contributors to chronic inflammation: unmanaged stress, insufficient sleep, a highly processed and acidic diet, omega-3 deficiency, and lack of daily movement (or over-exercising without recovery). Ultimately, he stresses that lowering inflammation requires a holistic, habit-based approach rather than quick fixes, empowering listeners to reclaim their health by addressing stress, sleep, nutrition, movement, and lifestyle balance.#Inflammation#HealthAndWellness#StressManagement#Nutrition#HealthyHabitsontargetliving.com

Most people think feeling mentally exhausted means they need more sleep, more motivation, or more willpower. But what if the real issue is that your brain is wasting too much energy on chaos, uncertainty, and constant decision-making?In this episode of the Kwik Brain podcast, I break down why your brain craves structure, how a lack of it creates mental fatigue, and what simple changes can help you feel calmer, clearer, and more productive throughout the day.Your brain uses a huge amount of energy every single day. When it has to keep figuring out what is next, switching tasks, and processing too much uncertainty, it burns through that energy fast. I show you how routines, time blocking, and brain breaks can reduce decision fatigue, sharpen your focus, and help you perform at a higher level without burning out.In this episode, you will learn:✅ Why your brain craves structure and predictability✅ How decision fatigue drains your mental energy✅ Why uncertainty keeps your brain stuck in survival mode✅ How routines help reduce overwhelm and improve focus✅ The difference between a rigid routine and a flexible one✅ How time blocking helps your brain go deeper on one task at a time✅ Why multitasking weakens performance and attention✅ How brain breaks improve productivity, creativity, and learning✅ How to use the Pomodoro technique to stay mentally sharpThis is not about becoming more rigid.It is about giving your brain a better system so you can feel more focused, less overwhelmed, and more in control of your energy.

There's a belief so deeply embedded in how most established solopreneurs approach their business that it never gets questioned. It feels logical. It feels like common sense. And it's quietly responsible for keeping more business owners stuck in inconsistent revenue than almost anything else. In this episode you'll discover exactly what that belief is, why it's so persistent, and what actually shifts when you finally let it go and start looking in the one place that's been holding the answer all along.
Showing up late, ignoring direction, and making coworkers miserable will end more careers than a lack of technical skill. We start with a deceptively simple line from Tom Hanks about what it takes to succeed at work: show up on time, know the text, and have an idea. Then we put it under a microscope and talk about what “the minimum” really looks like in modern workplaces where reliability and teamwork feel rarer than they should be. We share a real story from a program built to close a middle-skill workforce gap in Iowa. The state funded technical training, yet people still struggled to stay employed. Employers weren't complaining about the certificate or the knowledge. They were describing behavioral breakdowns: not showing up, not following procedure, and constant conflict. That insight led to a practical approach centered on self-awareness, clear expectations, and accountability around four basic employability skills: show up, show up on time, do what you're asked, and be easy to work with. From there, we get honest about the hardest leadership problem we see everywhere: toxic employees who produce results but damage the culture. We talk about why “fixing the jerk” is less effective than leading so the organization stops tolerating jerk behavior in the first place, and we address the real-world constraint leaders bring up all the time: “I can't replace them.” If that's true, we push for a plan instead of acceptance, with thoughtful action rather than reactive blowups. If you want practical leadership advice, better team culture, and a clear framework for job performance, press play. Subscribe, share this with a leader or teammate who needs it.

I'll break down 7 deeply “normal” habits that I believe are making people more depressed, isolated, anxious, exhausted, and emotionally disconnected from their own lives. I talk about self-neglect, isolation, overspending, overconsumption, excessive screen time, and why living in fantasy worlds can slowly disconnect you from reality without you even noticing it. My core message is simple: if “normal” keeps producing misery, maybe the goal shouldn't be normal anymore.If my podcast has helped, my new book, The Light Between the Leaves, goes even deeperNext Steps:
She Breaks Free....Ditch the Diet & Change Your Relationship with Food & Fitness
Have you noticed how summer has a way of making healthy habits feel harder? The schedules change, vacations happen, the kids are home, weekend cookouts somehow turn into weekday leftovers, and before you know it, the structure you had during the year completely disappears. Then suddenly it's August, and you feel like you're starting over all over again. But what if summer didn't have to become the season of weight gain, guilt, and losing momentum? In today's episode, we're talking about how to approach summer weight loss differently, not through restriction, perfection, or trying to “make up” for every vacation meal, but by shifting your focus toward maintenance, consistency, and simple habits that actually fit this season of life. Because the truth is, summer can actually support your health goals beautifully. Fresh foods are everywhere, movement often feels easier, the days are longer, stress can feel lower, and when you stop trying to diet harder, it becomes so much easier to stay consistent without obsessing over every choice. So today, I'm going to walk you through practical ways to stay on track through vacations, busy schedules, cookouts, late nights, and all the unpredictability that summer brings, without feeling like you've ruined everything every time life gets off routine. And I'd love to hear from you. What are your summer habits looking like this year? What are you doing differently to stay consistent? You can email me at TaraJ@dietditching.com, and I'd also love for you to join our Facebook community, Lose Weight, Live Free, where we're encouraging each other to build healthy habits without the pressure of perfection.
We are wired for connection, and yet many of us spend most of our lives avoiding it, says behavioral scientist Nicholas Epley. Drawing on decades of research into happiness, loneliness and well-being, he reveals why we consistently underestimate how receptive others are to connecting — and invites us to seize the small moments that lead to a more social life.

Most law firm owners are highly strategic in their legal work, but far less intentional about their finances. And it shows up at tax time. In episode 614 of the Lawyerist Podcast, Bernadette Harris talks with Jayden Doye about the financial habits that quietly cost law firms thousands and why reactive tax preparation is not the same as real tax strategy. Jayden breaks down the key differences between bookkeeping, tax preparation, and tax planning, and explains why many lawyers overpay the IRS simply because they wait too long to act. They also explore common mistakes like misclassifying employees, relying on DIY accounting, and focusing on revenue instead of profit. Together, they share practical ways to take control of your numbers, build better financial systems, and make smarter decisions throughout the year, not just in April. If you want to stop guessing, reduce your tax burden, and run a more financially stable firm, this episode offers a more proactive approach to managing your practice.

In this episode, the conversation shifts from humor into a surprisingly grounded discussion on relationships and what makes marriages work long-term. Instead of focusing on conflict and “grievance-based” communication—often reinforced in traditional therapy—the hosts highlight four foundational habits that build connection: Have more fun together – Strong relationships prioritize shared enjoyment over constant problem-solving. Pray or reflect together – Shared spiritual or reflective practices deepen emotional and psychological bonding. Make eye contact – Intentional presence signals respect, attention, and emotional validation. Always be touching – Physical connection fuels bonding hormones and reinforces intimacy. The discussion emphasizes that relationships fail not just from conflict, but from lack of connection, presence, and intentional engagement. The takeaway is simple: small, consistent behaviors matter more than overanalyzing problems. CONNECT WITH US Thanks for joining us — you are the reason we are here. Have questions?

Are you tired of feeling like your revenue is all over the place? One month things are flowing, sales are coming in, and everything feels like it's finally clicking, and the next you're second-guessing everything and tempted to burn it all down… again. The most successful business owners I work with aren't doing anything wildly different than you. In this episode, you'll learn the hidden patterns behind your inconsistent income and the 3 overlooked areas crucial to creating sustainable business growth.
What if the habit that determines your future health isn't complicated at all—but simply the one most people keep postponing? In this conversation, Prof. Spira and Jake Gallon break down a core principle that's often overlooked in modern health culture: feeling “fine” does not mean you're well. Long before symptoms appear, the body gives signals—and ignoring them is how people quietly end up dependent on hospitals, procedures, and lifelong interventions. You'll hear why: Waiting for a diagnosis is already too late “All-or-nothing” thinking destroys long-term progress Elimination—not stimulation—is the foundation of real vitality Simple daily habits matter more than extreme protocols Health is built through consistent action, not intellectual debate This isn't about fear. It's about responsibility, awareness, and choosing a different path—now, not later. If you've ever said, “I'll start next week,” this conversation is for you.

Sometimes it's hard to say what you mean. Oren Jay Sofer says, "Communication is a learnable skill and it's one of the most powerful levers for making change in your life and the world." Non-violent communication is about taking responsibility for what we are experiencing using empathy, deep listening, know how to make requests.// This episode is a replay from the Sonya Looney Show. It originally aired October 22, 2020. //Author and renowned meditation instructor Oren Jay Sofer regularly teaches a mindful approach to non-violent communication. spent two and a half years of living as an Anagarika (renunciate) at branch monasteries in the Ajahn Chah Thai Forest lineage. Today, his teaching combines classical Buddhist training with the accessible language of secular mindfulness. Since the early 2000s, Oren has had a deep interest in the relationship between contemplative practice and communication. A graduate of the BayNVC North American Leadership Training, he has taught classes and workshops in Marshall Rosenberg's Nonviolent Communication (NVC) nationally since 2006. His innovative retreats and online programs in Mindful Communication offer one of the only opportunities in the U.S today to explore the intersection between formal meditation practice, Right Speech and NVC. Oren is the founder and Guiding Teacher of Next Step Dharma, an innovative online course focused on bringing the tools of meditation to daily life, and co-founder of Mindful Healthcare. Oren has created mindfulness programs for organizations, companies, and apps including Apple, Kaiser Permanente, Lumosity, Calm, 10% Happier, Simple Habit and others.I loved his book, Say What You Mean: A Mindful Approach to Nonviolent Communication. In the book, a main theme is that every thought or feeling is there to try to meet a need. If you can try to figure out what need your thoughts are tied to, it's easier to articulate what you need to those around you. It's also useful when listening to someone in a disucssion or conflict to tease out what need they are trying to have met. I also enjoyed learning about conflict and viewing it as a way to deepen relationships. I also learned that non-violent communication and conflict resolution isn't necessarily to try to get someone to do things your way, it's about deepening understanding of one another because sometimes we simply can't agree to have the same viewpoint. Non-violent communication has a framework of observation, the feeling, the needs and values to be met, and the request.Three questions you can ask yourself are what happened, how do I feel about it, and why?I also loved learning about how to use mindfulness in listening and communication as well as how to ground yourself in your own body when tensions rise.Topics Discussed in the Podcast from childhood actor to meditation instructor4 types of conflict avoidanceself-empathytools for internal pressureNo mud, no lotusaddressing the voiceless and gender constructshow to make requests of othersResourcesOren Jay Sofer's websiteGet Oren's book: Say What You Mean: A Mindful Approach to Nonviolent Communication--------------The Grow the Good Podcast is produced by Palm Tree Pod Co.

Episode 626 If you are ready to stop guessing and actually see what is inside the membership before you decide anything, head over to GetMoreLoans.com and just tell the team to walk you around and show you everything, especially how Dialed In works, so you can make an informed decision after you have looked behind the door. Welcome to Loan Officer Freedom, the #1 podcast in the country for loan officers, hosted by Carl White. In this episode, Carl shares a simple truth that most loan officers overlook: practice pays. He tells the story of a recent Dialed In session where members celebrated multiple contracts, closings, and refis, and explains why those wins were not the result of motivation, luck, or secret lead sources. Carl breaks down how consistent roleplay and scripting build real confidence before you ever pick up the phone, so you stop winging conversations and start sounding clear, certain, and professional. He makes the case that the conversations you practice today turn into the paychecks you cash next week. If you are tired of stumbling through calls and hoping it works out, this episode is a reminder that the basics done at a higher level create extraordinary results.
Feeling “off” can show up as mood swings, low energy, poor sleep, or that quiet sense of “I don't feel like me lately”. In this episode, Gabrielle Bernstein sits down with Liz Zwillinger, founder of Biologica, the first multivitamin tailored to your hormonal life stage, for a grounded conversation about simple, realistic ways to support yourself through life's changes—especially when stress, hormonal shifts, and the transitions of perimenopause and menopause throw you out of alignment.Rather than chasing perfection or adding to our to-do list, Gabby and Liz explore the power of one gentle daily habit to support hormonal balance, the nervous system, brain, bones, and heart. They discuss why so many women feel dismissed during perimenopause, how to care for the whole woman—not just symptoms—and how consistent, science-backed support can help you feel more steady, calm, and clear. This episode is an invitation to stop white-knuckling your way through and start choosing support that helps you feel like your best self again.Learn more about Biologica and find the multivitamin for your life stage at biologica.comJoin Gabby on her 2026 Time to Trust Tour!

Mel Robbins is one of the most sort after motivational speakers in the world. Her TED talk has been viewed almost 27 million times and she's also the best-selling author of several books, including her latest one, The High Five Habit: Take Control of Your Life With One Simple Habit. In today's conversation, Mel explains that all of us know what we need to do for the best in any given situation but it's acting on that knowledge that's hard. It's so easy to be impulsive or fall into old habits. And I think this is where Mel really comes into her own. Her approach is all about practical, real life advice that busy people with busy lives can easily implement. A prime example is something that Mel calls the five second rule. This is a rule that stops negative thinking in its tracks, and immediately breaks the feedback loop of procrastination and moves us into taking action. It changes a bias of thinking into a bias of action, giving you the confidence to try when you're full of doubt. In fact, it's so simple that my 11 year old son has already seen its benefits in his own life over the past few weeks. We also talk about The High Five Habit (which is the title of Mel's new book) - this is the idea that by simply giving yourself a high five in the mirror each morning, you can experience transformative effects in your life. This simple exercise is about recognizing yourself and asking yourself what the person looking back at you in the mirror really needs and by doing so, Mel explains that you are retraining your brains neural pathways and convincing your subconscious that you are someone who is worthy of celebration. This really is a wide ranging and in-depth conversation. There is something quite unique about the connection that Mel has with her audience and the way she delivers her message. I think a lot of it comes down to her raw honesty, and the fact that all of her methods are borne out of her own lived experience. She's been there and she is very happy to share her struggles, her insecurities and her battles. I certainly got a lot out of this conversation and I think you will as well.
