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.

Hi, Be It babe. Okay, it is that Friday after Thanksgiving here in the States, and instead of doing wins, I wanted to do some gratitude. So I wanted to take a moment and to share my gratitude for you, and also for this podcast. So it's not a solo episode, because it's gonna be quick and short, and I'll still have a mantra.

Lesley Logan 1:07

But, Thanksgiving holiday is always a lot. I used to work in retail, okay? And so what that meant is a really slow several days. Couldn't go home for Thanksgiving because I had to be at work at eight in the morning the day after, and literally work until the mall closed. There was just no leaving and just not really enjoy the holiday, because all of my friends traveled. I lived in Southern California, and so from the 2001 to 2009 I did never have a Thanksgiving, and so I would just literally eat Chinese food, the gluten free version, and kind of be at home. And I'd watch Home For The Holidays, which is a great movie if you've never watched. It's a Thanksgiving movie, and it just used to make me laugh, because the family is like so many nuances. There's so much drama and there's so much stuff, and even in all of the chaos and all the family dynamics and all this stuff, there's like gratitude in there. And so now I don't really work the week of Thanksgiving. Have a couple things I had to do end of the week, but really from Wednesday on, except for, like, some social media stuff to remote the sales that we have, Brad and I get to just spend it thinking about our family and thinking about what we're grateful for, and thinking about the friends in our life, and then we go and support small businesses on Saturday. We get all of our Christmas shopping done, and we try to do it using small businesses as much as possible. Obviously, sometimes our friends and family want things that are not at small businesses, but that's what our goal is.

And I share those with you because in this moment, I'm so grateful for you. I do not take lightly that you use some of your minutes of your day to spend with me and the guests that I bring on. And not every guest is going to be enlightening and change your world, but if it even gives you insight on someone else's world, that, to me, is a huge win, and I'm very grateful if it gives you some insight on some ways to be empathetic to people who are different than you, then that is a win, and I'm grateful for that. And if it allows you to go, oh my God, that's what's been holding me back, then I am so grateful. And that is a win.

And so you know, as this podcast is hitting three and a half years at the end of this year. Holy moly. And we are so many episodes. And this is episode 453 I mean, I feel like we just listened to Episode 400 so the fact that there's been 53 more, I learn new things that (inaudible) these guests. And so some of, this podcast was selfishly started because I struggle to be it till I see it. I sometimes start to worry about what other people will think, or what could go wrong, or maybe we should do this, because that's what's working for other people. And sometimes I can doubt things. And so this podcast forces me to be it till I see it, because I would be out of alignment and integrity. And my hope is that this podcast is a reminder to you that for the person you want to be, for the thing that you want to do, for the things you want in this life, first of all, it's all possible, and second of all, it comes from stepping outside of your comfort zone and being it until you see it, from taking your goals that you have and working backwards and then acting as if it's already happened, and trusting the process, and not in the way that you're doing the secret, But in the way that I'm going to take action towards this thing that I want, and I'm going to be the person who would have the thing that I want already. And then between those two things, between the being it, and then also action, I'm going to ditch some of that fear and ditch that imposter syndrome, and I'm going to truly make these things happen, and it's been really cool to watch and hear from so many of you who listen on how different episodes have helped you be it till you see it. So, thank you.

Thank you to the team who puts this together. Could not do this without you. Thank you to my friends and family who are the first listeners. Who helped get this off the ground. And thank you to all of our guests who have taken time out of your busy life to let me ask you questions. And thank you to you for listening, no matter which episodes or how many episodes you've listened to. So this is your first one. Hi. Thank you. And my big ask is that you send in some wins as this year wraps up, I want to celebrate them with you, and you share this with a friend. It doesn't have to be this episode, but share your favorite episode with a friend, and I'm going to say thank you in advance. Thank you so much.
