James Goodlatte is the founder of Fit For Birth, a holistic fitness education company that teaches the Five Holistic Foundations of fertility, pre & postpartum timeframes:

(1) Breathing,

(2) Movement,

(3) Nutrition,

(4) Lifestyle, and

(5) Thoughts.

His philosophies are most often a blend of the ancient wisdom of our ancestors that is now being proven by scientific research today.  He teaches his clients that the vast majority of challenges in life can be remedied by just improving these 5 areas and that these are usually worth looking into before reaching for medications and surgeries.

IN THESE EPISODES:

Join James and Jenn in this five-part series that promises you either to easily begin a simple few minutes of exercise each day or adjust your current routine to ensure that your results are way better than "usual fitness."

James' style of corrective exercises shows how important it is for you to determine which exercises are RIGHT FOR YOU, and you'll be able to do exactly that after participating in this SELF-ASSESSMENT.

Each Segment:

(1) Goals & Needs discussion with Jenn: Determining what's right for you, and understanding corrective exercise

(2) Self-Assessment:  Immediately increase your own body awareness in this short guided self-evaluation!

(3) Core Training: Learn how to implement inner core breathing into your abdominal exercises.

(4) Lower Body Training: Learn the single most important muscle for your lower body exercises.

(5) Upper Body Training:  Learn a few techniques to use the right muscles in your upper body exercises.

ABOUT JAMES:

I consider my work to be "empowering people" to believe in themselves and find what works for them.  As the founder of Fit For Birth, this is done primarily through personal training and health education for pre-conception, pregnant and postpartum moms, as well as continuing education for fitness professionals, birth workers, and other wellness professionals.

Share your experience! I answer all comments personally and will select one to read at the beginning of the next show.

* Struggled for a year through an ectopic pregnancy and 2 emergency surgeries (lost a tube)

* Found success with holistic herbs and Chinese medicine

* Gained 50lbs and 57lbs with both pregnancies and struggled to lose the weight and feel like me again

* Between being sleep deprived, having 2 boys 23 months apart, and getting mastitis with my 2nd at 3mo PP, I ended up dealing with what I learned was postpartum rage.

* After a spiritual journey for this last year, I discovered I was meant to get into postpartum doula work along with my health coaching - through that work, I created Motherhood Elevated (an online resource guide for moms with over 130+ resources/tools/tips for all areas of health - physical, mental, emotional, spiritual and financial).

Alison is a health coach and the creator of Motherhood Elevated, an online resource guide for moms.

It’s time to update what’s going on for me and the podcast! It’s been 9 months since I changed the podcast’s direction from sharing stories of struggle to success to becoming parents.

I spent 12 years as a doula, lactation consultant, and CBE trainer in The Bradley Method and Birthing From Within, and ran LaLeche League meetings with a passion for supporting women who have become Moms. I thought I’d pick up where I left off - 18 years ago - and go to school to become a midwife, but that’s not what happened. Instead, I went back to school to be a doula and breastfeeding counselor again!

I’ve completed some specialty certifications, the first as an adoption doula. With 5 adoptions and 15 years working with social services, I love the idea of helping a biological mom deliver a baby and having support through her pregnancy, delivery, and healing, as well as helping adopting families with the transition, breastfeeding, and relactation, and working with the bio mom. It also opened up being a surrogacy doula which has many similarities.

The other certification that I’m incredibly passionate about is as a bereavement doula through stillbirthday.com As a mama who has experienced 3 miscarriages, including twins at 16 weeks, I decided to make this the pro bono part of my business. I work with women who have or are experiencing miscarriage, fatal diagnosis, stillbirth, or NICU and I can do so much while you’re going through this. I also have a program if time has passed. This has taken off in several directions that I’ll discuss on a specific episode and I love being able to make such a difficult situation, as positive as it can be.

I will be one of the first doulas in NV to become a Molina Medicaid provider and realized through a few other options that most likely 100% of my doula clients will be Medicaid. I’m currently at the end of licensing.

I am also planning on taking training through the hospital as well as opioid drug use training, to work through Medicaid and the hospitals to serve these women.

I thought I’d go back to working predominantly with homebirths, however, God has different plans for me and I am ecstatic! I’ll be serving an almost un-served population of women, and quite honestly - they deserve it.
