Dear Reader,

I notice that what I want to share doesn’t always want to be written.

It wants to be spoken - raw, from the park bench, from a walk, overhearing a topic in the coffee bar, from the minutes after a session when something feels alive before I lose the impulse

I’ve started a podcast. It will not polished. Not TikTok-edited to remove open spaces where I'm thinking. Not scheduled. Just honest audio reflections when they come.

The first one is called “Movement Without the Gym.”

Last weekend at a workshop, I kept hearing the same thing at the lunch tables: “I want to move more.”

As someone who used to own a gym and started to despise that straight line, rectangular environment (and coach my clients in the park next door), I shared four tactics I’ve woven into my days - not as a training program, but as a way of life that suits me and easily keeps me consistent:

1. Do it first. Before the automatic pull of the day kicks in.
2. See opportunities everywhere. Sidewalks, rails, brushing your teeth with non-dom hand.
3. Place tripwires. Objects you almost trip over that remind you to move.
4. Trade your chair for floor life. Forget the mobility sequence - just stand up to get the fork you forgot.

Start with the first one only. One month. When you see you can depend on yourself - "I can do!", the rest builds itself.

More voice notes will come when something feels alive and I catch the impulse.
The rhythm is part of what I’m practicing.

P.S.: I’m reflecting on how my work resonates and where it can go deeper.

If you’ve been reading my newsletters for a while, or if you’ve worked with me individually, I’d welcome hearing from you:

What has been valuable?
What is still unclear?
What would you want to hear more about?

Just reply to this email. I read everything personally.

Wishing you do it first,

Olivier
