We talk a lot about intuition in the pregnancy and birth space. But intuition isn’t something you magically access when labor starts. It’s something you strengthen — and it starts in the body.

In this episode, I sit down with kinesiologist and Pilates specialist Rachael Robertson to explore how embodied movement builds trust, awareness, and nervous system regulation.

We discuss:

• What embodiment actually means (and why so many women feel disconnected)
• How chronic tension, old injuries, and overtraining impact intuition
• The link between nervous system safety and physiological birth
• Why pelvic stability and breathwork matter long before labor begins
• Movement as preparation for pregnancy, birth, and postpartum
• How to stop overriding your body and start listening to it

This conversation is about rebuilding strength without force — and developing the kind of body awareness that carries into labor, motherhood, and everyday life.
