Episode 46: Laura Walker on Pregnancy, Return to Curling & Mom Life on the Road


Listen Later

In today’s episode I am joined by Laura Walker who shares her learnings as a curler managing life, training and competition while pregnant. 

 

Laura shares her top tips she gives to other curlers who are pregnant; how to develop a support system, when to seek out help, her thoughts on return to play and managing being a mom while competing.

 

This episode is not intended to replace the guidance of your own personal medical professional, and it is our opinion that this conversation is important for all humans to listen to, regardless of your personal plans for pregnancy. Please enter this episode with an open mind and avoid judgment on the opinions and ideas presented.
