In this solo episode, Lesley Logan pulls back the curtain on eLevate, her exclusive nine-month mentorship program designed for comprehensively trained Pilates instructors. She explains why collecting more exercises won't cure your imposter syndrome, and how understanding the deeper "why" behind the classical system transforms your confidence. Listen to the episode to learn the crucial difference between upLift and the eLevate program, plus how to step away from repetitive scripts and start trusting your own intuition.

Some months move so fast that staying grounded feels impossible. In this Fuck Yeah Friday, host Lesley Logan makes the case for creating space to be human together, even from the road in Cambodia. She shares the small tweak to her morning pages that clears the head clutter before her second block, why Dolly Parton's legacy of unconditional generosity keeps inspiring her, and the mantra she's carrying into the weekend.
