If you’ve ever been super lean, strong, and confident in your body before pregnancy—and then felt like everything started unraveling through weight gain, scaling back your training, and feeling uncomfortable in your own skin—this episode is for you.
I want to be real about the postpartum journey as a competitive athlete and coach. I’ve gone through it twice now, and even with all my knowledge around nutrition, training, and mindset, it still rocked me. With my most recent pregnancy, most of my weight gain happened early, which was mentally tough. I knew better, but stepping on the scale and seeing the number climb when the baby only weighed a few ounces—it messed with my head.

I also dive into the truth that doesn’t get said enough: you don’t need to “bounce back.” You don’t need to fix your body or chase the old version of yourself. You’re evolving into something new. Stronger. Wiser. Better equipped for this season and the next.
If you’re a mom in the thick of it—feeling moody, exhausted, overwhelmed, or like you’ve lost your edge—you’re not alone. This season isn’t forever. Do one small thing each day that helps you feel like YOU again.
You’re not going back—you’re building something even better
