It's fuck yeah Friday. 


Brad Crowell 0:01  

Fuck yeah.

 


Lesley Logan 0:02  

Get ready for some wins. 


Lesley Logan 0:05  

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 0:46  

Hi, Be It babe. How are you? Oh, my goodness, it is that time of the week. It is Friday. So this is where we celebrate your wins, and we celebrate my wins. And we also hopefully inspire you to celebrate more wins and find them throughout your day. It's so, so important. It's so easy to like get caught up in all the stuff that's not going well. And so today, we're not going to end the week like, on how behind we are already in the week on all the things we did well, so let's hit your wins up first. Thank you for sending them in. You can send them into the Be It Pod and we'll share them with you. So Ainsley, Ainsley is an Agency member and she's also in eLevate round four this year, but she wrote, It's 7:30am on a cold January Sunday, and this week, I paid off my final installment of my second reformer. I nearly overlooked it as I press pay automatically, but it glitched and didn't go through so I had to press pay again and paused wow, I did this. So I'm celebrating. Egg sourdough and sparkling tea. Cheers. Thank you, to me for all of my hard work and paying it off and having the courage to commit to it and all of you whose energy and encouragement is essential and contagious. I have Sunday self-practice and cuppas with the new eLevate group. Thank you. So you are so welcome. Ainsley, you are just I thank you for taking a moment to celebrate this because I bet you there's someone listening to this right now who just paid off their final credit card bill or their final payment on their car, or they're getting closer or like I remember, I remember I paid off my student loans. I was like, oh my god, I just, that was the last payment. That's it. That's all. That's all it is. I'm done. And it was like, I just, I remember like, wanting to celebrate and then going oh my god, everyone to celebrate with is still paying off their student loans. So like, no one's gonna wanna celebrate. And you know what? I should have celebrated with them because they should have celebrated with me too. Like, we should be celebrating the things that we did well. Congratulations. Thank you for sharing that with us.

All right. Jenna Dennis. Okay. She's an Agency member. And she's really cool. We got to see her on the summer tour. So here we go. My wins. I watched LL's talk about bringing in clients. And earlier in the day, I had hesitated reaching out to someone in my network. I was thinking she's going to be irritated. I'm reaching out to her about marketing. But during the class when LL talked about that very topic, I paused the class, texted her, and she was so excited I text her about it. Three new people sign up for my herb classes. I changed the marketing based off homework with Lesley and Lesley's talking about giving early bird prices for retreat. I took this weekend off and managed to say no to people who reached out and wanted sessions I finally launched my new client welcome email series to nurture new clients. It worked and the new client clicked to read my bio on my website. I had some problems come up with my website. So I'm transitioned over in inconvenient times that I remember LL saying one of the reasons you can't level up your business is you can't handle the next level problems and totally changed my attitude about it. And I went from overwhelmed and oh shit with a side of panicking to wait, stop. Whatever. This is not a big deal. And I totally fixed the whole issue myself after reading copious amounts of directions on the internet. I'm actually excited to have total control over my website. Heck yeah. Oh my gosh, Jenna, these are all just so fricking great. Thank you first of all for listening to the webinars that I do. And taking those notes and integrating them because look how it's helping you like you're doing it you know, just so awesome. 


Lesley Logan 4:04  

Alright, we'll do one more. Djamila. She's been kicking butt you guys. If you ever had to move house before and like change your whole business and have kids while you're doing it like this, she is doing that and so this one is for all of you who are like moms who are trying to make magic happen and also having to like start a new study so Djamila is in our Agency members and she said so while I'm bleeding money at the moment these past weeks I've learned to advertise via meta easy upgraded and I'm using Canva pro have a superfan client who's bringing me more business I'm working that connection and excited and touched by the progress one of my new clients is making she is almost paralyzed from the waist down. My employees are amazingly supportive with her too and it's so nice to watch that in action, have drafted an introduction invitation letter to physiotherapist in my neighborhood have prepared at my house to receive 450 moving boxes from South Africa and Myra farmers finally got quality cert certified. This means my clients can get financial assistance from Swiss health insurance to come to my studio and I'm leveraging my moon cycle to really use my Peak Pro to productivity times and rest too and making progress and getting out of my own way. And I let go of all the things I cannot come to keep up with this week. Well, Jamila, I think you just helped all of us do that, too. You're so great. Like, I love these wins. I love that you're seeing these obstacles as like opportunities and wins. And you're also in observation mode of all the things around you that are going so well. Thank you. Thank you, thank you, you guys send your wins in, I want to read them here. I want to help you also it's so cool, as I'm probably sure you've heard, some of these wins are a couple months old by the content that come out. So that means when you hear your win again, you get to re-celebrate what you just did, which is so freaking fun. 


Lesley Logan 5:39  

All right, my win. So I've two wins. Last week, the affirmation was like I leave room for spontaneity. I have this fun win. I had been overwhelmed with work load. And to be honest, because I went so long without having help that like I just got really, really behind. And then we had retreats in a row, several retreats in a row that eLevate like, there's just a lot of things going on. So just wasn't really able to, like take time to just relax and rest because I fell behind on things. And I was also working. And so Brad was like, hey, change your clothes, we're gonna go somewhere. And instead of going, Nope, I'm fighting with him to stay and like stay in my overwhelm. I was like, okay, how much more money can I get? And you guys, I left room for spontaneity. And it was so fun, ended up not being what he wanted, he was hoping to take me for a hike and we got all the way to the place and was covered in snow. There was zero way we were gonna hike anywhere. So we pulled the camping chairs out and we sat on a snowed in rode and had a beer while watching the mountain covered in snow. So, you should leave room for spontaneity, it's so fun. Second win, the team for months, has been planning some changes in the Profitable Pilates business. And it's a little scary to do something new in your business because you're like, well, this thing has worked is not, doesn't work the way it used to. But it still works. So like, let's just keep making it work. But the reality is, it's like it's working-ish, right? And so we are starting, we started something new, we did this, Brad led a workshop called Accel. And it's for Pilates teachers and studio owners. And it's our first time running it. And it was so cool to see the team put together new systems, new ways of doing things and test this out. And it was such a success. And I'm so excited because you know, doesn't mean it's gonna be the fifth thing that works. Although I hope it turns into that. We will know, the more we do it a few more times. So if you missed it, don't worry, there's another one. But the truth is, is like, too often, a lot of us will just keep doing what we've been doing because it sort of works. And we know it. And the truth is, is that sometimes you got to do something new to get new things, right? And so anyways, way to go team, I'm so proud of you, I'm so proud of what you and Brad put together. And I'm so excited for all the people who have joined Agency because of that thing that you did. And if you guys are interested in Accel, stay listening to the pod, we'll probably have another one next month. And you can actually DM the team and they'll give you the link so you can get signed up for that. But it's gonna change your business and your business is there to make massive impact. It's not always about making the money, although you will. But if you get to focus on the actual impact you want to make, it makes it really fun to do. So two awesome wins for this week. So grateful for spontaneity and an amazing team that's willing to take risks and try something new, and have fun with an experiment.

All right, gotta give you an affirmation because we love those and also because it might help you do something with your weekend. So my body is worthy of being cared and adorned in beautiful garments. Well, go shopping, loves. That's what that one means. My body is worthy of being cared for and adorned in beautiful garments. So go get your movement on. Go have some fun, putting on some beautiful garments, my body is worthy of being adorned and put in beautiful garments. Have an amazing day. Until next time, Be It Till You See It.
