On today’s episode, I am chatting with one of our amazing clients in the Hot & Healthy Membership named Gabi.

As a full time working mom with 2 young daughters, Gabi understands what it means to be busy! Yet despite all the demands on her plate as a mom and attorney, Gabi didn’t want her schedule and these responsibilities to hold her back from feeling her best… and feeling like “herself” again.

In today’s episode Gabi opens up about her past struggles with losing weight and dieting, why previous dieting approaches made it impossible to be consistent despite her best intentions and most of all – how she’s overcome “mom guilt” as she’s learned to prioritize her wellbeing, nutrition and fitness while still wanting to show up strong for her kids.

Gabi also candidly discusses what it means to embrace your postpartum body despite wanting to change it and how losing weight in a flexible and unrestricted way is helping her be a positive role model to her daughters.

Whether you’re a postpartum mom or now just trying to lose weight, the nuggets of wisdom in this episode will 100% inspire you to lose 20 or more pounds as well.

On today's episode I am sitting down solo to share the candid details of my birth story of my beautiful daughter Amelia!

I wanted to share my birth story alongside some details of my early days postpartum because when I was about to go through this experience, it was so hard to find podcast episodes and information like this of women who had hospital births, opted for an epidural and also an induction. And because I had a positive experience, I wanted to share exactly what it was like with you!

This is a very special episode as I recount the raw emotions starting at 39 weeks pregnant leading up to Amelia’s delivery, what I’ve learned about motherhood thus far and the unexpected things I’ve learned during this incredibly transformative time. I hope my story resonates and sheds light on the diverse and extraordinary experience of childbirth.
