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. How are you? Oh my god. We're in the middle of April. We did it. We're here. I'm home. I'm back from Europe. I have so much to say about that, but I'll be in a future episode. So it's fuck yeah Friday. So we get really cool about talking about what's going well, what's fun, what, what did we do? Because if we don't celebrate the little things and the big wins, then who, who is right? I mean, actually today's inspiration on the internet, someone is and I, I have so much love for this post, and I also just feel like it helps remind, like, remind us that we're human beings and we can do certain things for people as well. So I mean, obviously, all capacities are different, but let me, let me show the story. So Madeline Schizas asked for an extension to our college assignment and see how our professor responded. So the the post is like, hi, Professor, blah, blah, blah. I'm a student in your sociology course, and I'm wondering if I can get a short extension on this week's reflection. I was competing in the Olympic Games yesterday, and thought the reflection was due Sunday, not Friday. Here is the Canadian Olympic Committee press release to confirm my participation. Thanks for your consideration. So cute, right? Like, by the way, I'd be this girl. This would be me going, I'm at the Olympics, and I have homework too, and here's a proof I'm actually gonna be in the Olympics. But this is how her professor responded. Hi, Madeline. Wow. What a special moment. Yes, in this circumstance, an extension is perfectly fine. I'd say focus on the competition right now and submit it directly to me when it's done. The triple, let's triple toe combo is a pretty hard move to master, but you've got this. Good luck. The whole country is rooting for you and your teammates. PS, when I was 10, I scored a goal in hockey, and that was challenging enough for me. And then there's another picture. He created an Instagram account just so he could post a picture of him watching her compete. I mean, the world needs more teachers like this now and then she she posted this, and she also shares, like, Wow, I can't believe everyone cared so much. I gotta get the extension. And so, so I just think it's so I just think that's so sweet and so special. And like, what a cool professor, not just to, like, give the extension, because, of course, that's what they would do. Like, that's the right thing to do, but also to be like, here I'm rooting for you like that's we all need teachers like that, and I know we have a lot of different types of teachers who watch and listen to this pod. And you're probably like that for someone else, and you might not even know it, but you you are. And so thanks for being here. Thanks for listening.

Okay, your win. This one comes from Vickie McEntire. So here's my win this week. Hell, this month, I hosted a Joe's gym to raise money for the local food pantry, and we brought in $500 we had fun, we played, we practiced. Heck, $500 for that's a huge donation for them. That's amazing. Way to go. Vickie, way to make it a community event. Way to make it fun. Way to make everyone wins there, right? Like everyone you, you get to have that achievement that you did this for them. They get to feel good because they gave mone...
