Like many people, Molly Galbraith was unhappy with her body when she was 18 and would spend years struggling with insecurities.

But, when she discovered how she could stop comparing herself to other women, Molly dedicated her life to supporting women and helping them feel strong, confident, and empowered in their lives and bodies.

She and other passionate women co-founded Girls Gone Strong as a platform dedicated to women and strength. Since its founding, Girls Gone Strong has grown to become the world’s premier education company that provides evidence-based interdisciplinary health, fitness nutrition, and pregnancy education for women and the health and fitness professionals who work with them.

In her book, Strong Women Lift Each Other Up, Molly draws from her experience as a coach and Woman-in-Charge at Girls Gone Strong to guide women through what it takes to use their values and lift other women.

Molly joins me today to discuss training during and after pregnancy. She discusses pelvic organ health and the role of coaches in supporting women’s health.

She reveals the dos and don’ts of exercising and lifting heavy weights while pregnant and shares her advice for planning a return-to-work program for women postpartum.

And Molly also explains why she is a staunch advocate of therapy and mental health and how women can develop a healthy relationship with their bodies.

Unless you’re someone who specializes in working with young male bodybuilders, you’re going to work with women, and there are things you need to know about their bodies to be able to coach them well. – Molly Galbraith
