Which is your favorite??

Questionable things I say as a pregnancy and postpartum coach to help my clients find their deep core and pelvic floor muscles…
🌀 “Breathe in to open your butthole”
🥤 “Slurp a smoothie up through a straw in your vagina”
🧈 “Melt like butter”

Weird? Yes.
Effective? Also yes.

Because vague cues like “engage your core” or “squeeze your pelvic floor” don’t help most women actually feel what’s going on in their body.

And when you can’t connect with those muscles?
That’s when things like…
🔻 a low belly pooch
💧 leaking
😩 pressure, pain, or prolapse
…tend to show up—and stick around.

Swipe through to see the weird-but-wonderful cues I use with my clients to help them build strength that actually supports their body—through pregnancy, postpartum, and everything after.

No, you don’t have to give up hip thrusts just because you’re pregnant!

But if they’re starting to feel uncomfortable, awkward, or like way too much pressure in your nether region... it’s time to modify.

My most requested birth prep routine as a prenatal fitness trainer and doula 👇🏽

Whether you’re weeks out or days away, there’s still so much you can do to create balance, alignment, and space in your body—so birth feels less overwhelming and more doable.

This is the real prep I walk my third trimester clients through to help them feel:
💪🏽 Strong
🤸🏽‍♀️ Mobile
👶🏽 Ready for labor and recovery

We’re talking:
✅ Breathwork to coordinate the core + pelvic floor
✅ Pelvic floor release work to make pushing easier
✅ Soft tissue release to reduce pain and tension
✅ Strategic movement to open each part of the pelvis
✅ And yes—strength training to top it all off

All of these pieces work together to help you feel more calm and confident in birth—and stronger on the other side of it too.

✨ Save this for your third trimester prep or send it to a friend who’s getting close!

If you’re a mom or mom to be, you need 4-7 💪🏽

Instead of training your core to bend, twist, or fold, you need anti-core training 🔥

This teaches your body to resist movement—so you can stay stable, supported, and pain-free through all the bending, lifting, baby-carrying chaos of mom life.

Whether you’re:
✨ Navigating a healing core
✨ Carrying a growing belly or car seat
✨ Managing pelvic pain, prolapse, or just trying to avoid setbacks...

Anti-core exercises are one of the smartest ways to build strength that actually translates to real life.

Swipe through to see the 4 types and how to start training your core for what it’s actually built to do 💪🏽

Your core doesn’t just support your workouts—it supports your life.

👉🏽 Follow for functional movement that makes motherhood feel stronger, not harder.

I don’t want #4 for you.
Longer pushing, more tension, higher risk of tearing?
Nah. You deserve better than that. 🫶🏽

The truth is—most women go into birth thinking their pelvic floor is supposed to help push the baby out.
But really?
It needs to get the heck out of the way. 🏎️🏎️

If it can’t, your baby has to work harder to descend—and pushing gets way more intense than it needs to be.

The key to relaxing your PF isn’t doing more kegels... it’s learning to let gooooo.❄️
✨ Through breathwork
✨ Through mobility
✨ Through intentional relaxation

Swipe through to learn how to start prepping your pelvic floor for an easier, smoother pushing phase.

And follow to learn how to work *with* your body during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum - not against it 💪🏽
