How I’m Getting Strong Again After Pregnancy and C-Section Recovery
About this episode
I’ll be honest, postpartum has challenged me in ways I never expected and this season of fitness looks nothing like my first journey.
In this solo episode, I’m sharing my real postpartum fitness update, what’s working for me, what has felt hard, and how I’m approaching weight loss, strength, nutrition, and recovery after pregnancy, a C-section, and breastfeeding.
I talk about why I personally found it difficult to lose weight while breastfeeding, how my mindset has shifted since becoming a mom, the exact training split I’m following right now, what I’m eating, the supplements I’m loving, and why I’m being transparent about exploring peptides and possibly GLP-1s.
This is not about bounce back culture. For me, it’s about feeling strong, energized, confident, and more like myself again so I can show up better for my son, my family, and me.
