In this episode, I’m kicking off our postpartum pains series by talking all about tailbone pain after birth, including why it happens and what might be causing it in your body. I get into things like delivery-related pressure, pelvic floor tension, and how your posture and daily habits can play a role.

I also share simple ways to start supporting your recovery, from adjusting how you sit to incorporating breathing and gentle mobility work. If you’ve been dealing with tailbone pain, this episode will help you understand what’s going on and remind you that this is common and something you don’t have to just live with.

In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Rosi, a family physician, mom of three, and pre- and postnatal coach, to talk about postpartum fitness without the “perfect routine” and why that expectation often leaves women feeling like they’re failing.

Dr. Rosi shares a more realistic approach to postpartum fitness, including focusing on small daily wins, fueling your body well, prioritizing sleep and stress management, and letting go of the idea that workouts have to be long or perfect to matter. If you’ve ever felt like you can’t stay consistent because life with kids is unpredictable, this conversation will remind you that simple, flexible habits are what actually work.

In this episode, I’m joined by physical therapist, lifelong athlete, and mom of five, Dr. Stephanie Ridgway, to answer one of the most common questions we hear from active moms: when is it actually safe to start running postpartum? We talk about why being “cleared at six weeks” is not the same as being ready to run, and what your body truly needs before returning to high-impact exercise.

Dr. Ridgway walks us through specific strength and functional tests you should be able to pass first, how to assess your pelvic floor and core, and the red flags that mean you need more support. If you are eager to get back to running but want to do it in a way that protects your long-term health, this episode will give you clear, practical guidance to help you build back the right way.
