The Coaching Room by Maven Coaching

What happens when life changes and the version of yourself you've always known no longer quite fits?

In this episode of The Coaching Room by Maven Coaching, I sit down with Steph — a mum, change management specialist and someone who knows a thing or two about juggling life's competing demands.

We talk about motherhood, identity, finding time for ourselves and the unexpected parallels between managing change professionally and navigating it in our own lives.

From losing ourselves somewhere in the demands of motherhood to rebuilding routines, making space for our own goals and learning to adapt when life doesn't go to plan.

And of course, plenty of honest mum chats and laughs along the way! 😂

Because sometimes the biggest changes aren't the ones we plan for.

You don't have to have it all figured out to start finding your way forward.

In this first episode of The Coaching Room by Maven Coaching, I sit down with Tayla to talk honestly about what it can look like to return to training and athletic performance after having a baby. Tayla first reached out to me after experiencing a pelvic floor symptom during training that left her feeling embarrassed and unsure about what to do next.

Like so many athletic mums, she wanted to keep training — she just needed to understand what her body was telling her and how to move forward.We talk about pregnancy, postpartum recovery, athlete identity, returning to CrossFit, navigating symptoms, rebuilding confidence and the often-overlooked gap between being cleared to exercise and actually feeling ready to return to the training you love.

Pelvic health physiotherapists and healthcare professionals play an incredibly important role in postpartum recovery.

But for many athletic mums, there can still be a missing piece between rehabilitation and returning to athletic performance. That’s the space Maven Coaching was created to help bridge.

This isn’t about getting your old body back or becoming the athlete you were before having a baby. It’s about understanding where you are now, building capacity progressively, and discovering what you’re capable of next.

The Coaching Room by Maven Coaching is a space for real conversations about performance, identity, change and finding your way.

Where does physiotherapy end and performance begin?In this episode of The Coaching Room, I sit down with physiotherapist Tam from Virtus Movement to talk about the space between rehabilitation and strength & conditioning — and why that gap matters for athletes.We talk about Tam’s journey into physiotherapy, her own experiences with injury, and how being an athlete and navigating injuries herself has shaped the way she now works with the people in front of her.We also unpack what happens when an athlete is no longer injured but isn’t quite ready for the demands of their sport and the gap that exists.This is a conversation about rehab, strength, performance, lived experience — and recognising that sometimes you don’t have to pick a lane but figure out what works best for you as both a practitioner and athlete.🧭 Never Alone.
