22 Mar 2022 | Safe Pregnancy Exercises for all trimesters | 00:17:51 | |
Pregnancy and postpartum is an incredibly special time in a woman's life. Your body is adapting and growing something beautiful and it requires special consideration to support your changing body during this season. We all know the benefits of exercise but even when we know what we ‘should’ do, it can be a real challenge to exercise during pregnancy when you have less time, energy and focus to take care of yourself. In this episode, I dive into the guidelines around exercise during pregnancy and offer my realistic take on how to support your body during all three trimesters. It’s so important to take care of yourself inside and out so don’t worry too much about reaching a certain standard. Do what’s right for your body and modify exercises where you need to. There are certainly more barriers to exercise during pregnancy but you can still do it in a way that helps you feel rejuvenated and not depleted.

03 May 2022 | 10 Reasons to include postnatal rehab in your after birth plan | 00:17:15 | |
Why do we need postnatal rehab? When we think of rehab, we often think of rehab after a sports injury, or perhaps an addiction. If a pro footballer has a knee injury, they may have surgery. And then it’s a given they will have a period of rehab before getting back on the footy field. This includes rest, recovery, and then a graduated return to exercise. Whereas women might have a 6 week doctors check, and then no guidance whatsoever to helping her body recover from what has been one of the biggest events a body could go through. Postnatal rehab is something that all women need, after giving birth, to some degree or other. Everyone’s postnatal rehab journey will be different. Each woman is unique and has her own set of challenges and goals. And every woman deserves to one day feel like a confident and strong mama. What is postnatal rehab?

30 Aug 2022 | Using stairs in pregnancy | 00:15:31 | |
Can I use stairs in pregnancy? This was a question sent to me via DM on Instagram @fitnestmama, and I thought that it might be a good question to do a podcast topic on. Pregnancy can be an exciting time, but it might also feel like a time when you are googling everything. And, the question around the safety of climbing stairs during pregnancy is relatively common. So if you’re pregnant, perhaps you have lots of stairs at home. Or perhaps you have been finding it difficult to climb stairs. Or perhaps you are just curious about the answer, then this is for you.

13 Jun 2023 | Want to lose weight after birth? Do this instead. | 00:13:24 | |
Firstly, congrats. You’re a mum! A whole new world has opened up. Even if you thought you were prepared, I am guessing motherhood has been an amazing ride. Today. I am broaching the topic of weight loss after birth, which I don't usually don’t do. I usually avoid this topic. For me and my program, FitNest Mama, it isn’t about weight loss. Our physical recovery program post birth is about that inner strength. Feeling better inside/out. Regaining our confidence. It’s about the huge correlation between physical and mental health.
