It's Fuck yeah, Friday.

Fuck yeah. 


Lesley Logan 0:03  

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  

Hey, Be It, babe. How are you? Oh my god, it's the first FYF of May, and it's on May 1st. Hi, welcome, welcome to Be It Pod's, Friday episode. Sure, quick, sweet, hopefully inspirational. Maybe it feels like we're having coffee, although it feels very one sided for you, but I want you to know that I wish you were here chatting with me. I share a win of yours, something inspirational, a win of mine, mantra for your weekend, and hopefully get you excited to hear what else we've had on the pod for the week. And we want to hear from you. We want your wins, so send them in to beitpod.com/questions, that's why you also can send your questions for us to answer on the pod. We love diving a little deeper, also based on your questions, it often lets us know what kind of guests we should have. So the inspiration from the internet, not that it's always very inspirational, but this one, somebody actually did. It's another year of the horse based on your birth month. And since it was the first of May, for those who were born in May, I thought this would be a fun inspiration for you. It's the honestly, the post is way too long for me to read all 12. So what I need you, if you're interested in yours, mine was great. I highly recommend you click the link in our show notes to go read all the posts. But for May, my birth, my may birthday is movement is essential for your growth this year. Changes in environment, routines or mindset bring clarity and renewed energy. The horse strengthens your independence and supports bold personal choices. Waiting for approval no longer feels natural to you. Everything improves when you trust your inner direction. Freedom becomes a source of confidence rather than fear. You will feel lighter as you move in alignment. And your affirmation is, I choose myself and move with confidence. So there you go. I'm gonna keep this one in my saves in case we have another like, seemingly close to the beginning of the month, FYF, because why not? Why not for the year of the horse? The whole time. We'll see I have ADHD. We'll see if I remember. 


Lesley Logan 2:40  

Okay, a win of yours. You guys submitted these. They're so good. So this is from mymarialoisa, Pilates session with Lesley Logan that showed my husband the benefit Pilates. Maria, that was so fun. You guys, Maria came to my house and did a private session. Not very often that people get to get in because it means you're visiting Vegas when I'm home and I have time. And it was so fun to teach her. Fun to teach anyone who's, like, really excited about Joe's work. And like, not just like Pilates, but like, because I want to be a Pilates princess, but like, the actual work of Joe and how it does. And her husband came and he got to see it, and Brad, like, turned him on some things. And so I just think that like that is just going to be I'm so excited for you, Maria. I'm excited for your dreams that you have with it. I can't even wait to be updated on all of it. All right. And I have one more for you. This is from Blanca. I'm not giving up. That's a win. So the reason why I always want you guys to share wins is because I think it's important. One, you need to hear it. It always comes out a couple months after you send it in, just based on when I record these things. So we've talked about this before in FYF, like, when you hear your win, we've had people hear their wins and like, oh my god, I just heard my win, and that's a win, because I needed that reminding. We life is lifing. There's so much going on. And so I just, I just really want to shout you out. I really want to support you. I want to celebrate whatever big or small win you think you have. So thank you, ladies for sending that in. 


Lesley Logan 4:06  

All right now, let me tell you, okay. So here we go. This is the first time I'm able to record since this happened. So this happened a while back, so you have nothing to worry about. But in March, three years after it had happened before, for different reasons, our sites were down. All of our sites, we have four, and they were all down, and means our shorteners didn't work. So if you're using our affiliate links, you couldn't even get to other people's sites with those. If you were you like, like, there's just with you couldn't buy anything, like, nothing. Our members, we were able to provide access to most of their membership, which behind the scenes, which is hard to do extra work, but here's the win. You're like, where's the win? Where's the win. So the win is, is that when my, when our ops girl, told me they were down, I was just, I mean, I said some few choices of cuss words, but no tears, no like, why is this happening to me? No like, oh my god. Where, this is the end of our business. It was just like, okay, step one, do this. Step two, do this. Step three, dadadadada. Let's just move forward. And I get, I got focused on what I had to do that day. You know, I have an amazing team who had to do a lot of extra work, and I'm so grateful for them. And the win is, like, how quickly we were able to pivot and and all these things. But for those of you who are like, I shouldn't be having this happen to me, like I really do, like, remind myself that, like, life is just an old Donkey Kong Mario Brothers game, where each level, you're introduced to a new shitty guy, and then after several levels, you end up at a castle, and then you get to experience all the little shitty guys that you already beat. And you just see like, oh, do I remember? Do I have the skills to beat them again? Because if I didn't, I have a lesson I didn't learn back there. And so I'm just really proud of how, how I was able to react and keep going, because I I had to keep going, but also because I could, because, you know, I figured out how to go, oh, this is the world is not imploding on me. This is a fixable problem. How do we align with our values and then move forward? And I'm just really grateful for all of our members who rolled with it and were patient with everything and enjoy their classes and coaching and replays in all different ways. Thank you. And we're and now, because it happened, our sites are doing even better. They're moving even faster and like, so sometimes they're not even a bad thing. Like, that's a win. So anyways, that's my win, not freaking out and wanting to quit my job.
