As March comes to a close, Lesley Logan shares a powerful reminder that small acts of kindness can ripple far beyond what we imagine. After reading a heart-wrenching story about twelve competing florists who came together to create a yellow garden for a young girl with cancer, Lesley reflects on how collective compassion can transform even the hardest moments. She also celebrates listener wins, from launching new beauty products to stepping into brave self-care practices, while sharing her own milestone journey of teaching across Europe and celebrating ten years of marriage with Brad.

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, we made it. We made it to the end of March. We're here. We did it. Hopefully you celebrated your wins along the way, and hopefully you sent them in, because that's what this episode's about. We can't wait to share your wins. Some inspiration. This inspiration. This is beautiful. This is like, I saw this. I cried when I read it. I cried when I shared it to Brad, because I was like, I have to show this Brad, and I'm gonna cry probably reading it to you. But I just think that, like, we need to know that there's good people doing good things out there in the world, and like, people doing what they can. And I think it's really important thing in being it until we see it and helping out the people around us and helping out humankind, we have to remember that it feels like a big problem if we try to do it all by ourselves, but if we just do what we can, and everyone's doing what they can, it all adds up. It changes the world. It really, really does. I was talking to my yoga teacher this morning before I started recording these and, you know, I convinced someone in my world to change, you know, how they are voting. You know, they were able to see the hypocrisy and things like that and like it can feel like, so like, like, it's one person, but it's also one person. If we all do it, check us out. Anyways, this is the inspiration. So this is from @shady_et and we basically compile collections of kind stories. So this is not their story, but the story that they compiled. So it said, the person says, I work at Petals and Stems a flower shop downtown. This man came in Tuesday morning, suit, tie, crooked, tie crooked eyes, red. My daughter, she's six, cancer. She's dying maybe a week left, and she loves yellow. He started crying right there in front of the daisies. I made him tea. What's her name? Emma. We bring her flowers every day at the hospital. It's the only thing that makes still makes her smile. After he left, I called every flower shop in the city. 12 shops. Told them about Emma. The next morning, I drove to the hospital with my car full of yellow flowers. When I got there, 11 other florists were already waiting, fans lined up, arms full of yellow we filled Emma's room every surface, the windowsill, the floor, the nurse's station, the hallway, yellow everywhere. Emma opened her eyes and smiled. It's a yellow garden like heaven. We stayed. All 12 florists sat in the hospital room just being there. One brought a guitar. Another read Emma a story. Emma died three days later, surrounded by yellow flowers and strangers who loved her anyway. At her funeral, every florist donated arrangements. Her dad told everyone about the day the flower shops came. Emma thought she was in heaven already. She was right. Okay, hold on, I'm gonna get this out. Now, every year, on Emma's birthday, all 12 shops close for an hour. We bring yellow roses to the pediatric ICU, fill the rooms, sit with the families. We call it Emma's garden. I can't but like, how cool. So, like, don't ever underestimate the power of what you can do. You kn...
