Be Well and Ground

In this solo episode, I’m sharing something I realized after recording so many thoughtful conversations with other moms and business owners — I never actually introduced myself.

So this is me.

I’m Emily — a mom of two, a toddler and prenatal yoga teacher, a creative, and someone learning what it looks like to find herself again in this season of motherhood.

In this episode, I talk about:

• How motherhood reshaped my identity in ways I didn’t expect

• My winding path from corporate product manager to small business owner to yoga teacher

• Why curiosity used to make me feel scattered — and how I’m learning to see it as strength

• The quiet questions that surface after baby: Who am I now? What do I love? Who am I becoming?

This podcast grew out of that in-between space — the space where you’re caring for everyone else while trying to stay connected to yourself.

You’ll hear conversations here with wellness professionals, small business owners, creatives, and everyday moms who are building, healing, growing, and figuring it out as they go.

If you’re in a season of transition or rediscovery, this space is for you.

Thanks for listening 🤍

Understanding Pelvic Floor Health with Lauren from Uplift Pelvic Health

In this episode, I sit down with Lauren, founder of Uplift Pelvic Health in North Charlotte, to dive into everything pelvic floor health. When we filmed this, I was 40 weeks pregnant and had so many questions—and Lauren delivered! We talk about common myths (spoiler: you don't need to do Kegels all day long), why pelvic floor therapy is important DURING pregnancy (not just postpartum), and how a holistic approach that considers stress, sleep, and nutrition can make all the difference.

Lauren is a doctor of physical therapy and certified pelvic health specialist who truly looks at the whole picture. We discuss birth prep sessions, what to expect at your postpartum appointments, and how she balances being a mom and business owner. Whether you're pregnant, postpartum, dealing with leakage or pain, or even going through menopause—this episode is packed with valuable insights on taking care of your pelvic floor at every stage of life.

About Lauren:

As a doctor of physical therapy and certified pelvic health specialist, she's passionate about helping women (and men!) reconnect with their bodies through holistic care. Lauren specializes in working with pregnancy and postpartum athletes, offering personalized treatment plans that address everything from birth prep to returning to running. When she's not treating patients, you'll find her working out, spending quality time with her two kids, or enjoying reality TV (hello, Real Housewives of Salt Lake City!). Lauren believes in meeting patients where they are—literally and figuratively—having started Uplift as a mobile practice treating clients in their own homes.
