The Go-To Podcast for Postpartum Moms Who Want to Be Strong and Confident Again!
*****TOP 2.5% GLOBALLY-RANKED PODCAST*****
Do you wish you could finally lose the postpartum pooch?
Are you frustrated every time you zip up those jeans - again - and the button just doesn’t shut?
Are you searching for the energy to work out, but each day feels like an uphill battle?
Do you crave those sweet compliments from your husband, like “babe, you’re looking amazing”?
I’m so excited you’re here, mama! This podcast will help you feel strong again after having a baby, especially in your core and pelvic floor. Through easy, simple, and safe workouts that you can do from home, you’ll gain confidence, boost your energy to play with your baby more, and feel incredible slipping into that favorite dress you haven’t worn since your honeymoon.
Hey, I’m Jena - a physical therapist, wife and mama of four. After each of my pregnancies I, too, struggled with losing my postpartum pooch, low energy levels and didn’t know how to regain my strength back. As a fitness lover, I craved working out like I did before having all those babies, but found that my body just wasn’t cut out for high-intensity workouts. And without having healed fully from pregnancy, I was an injury waiting to happen.
I finally realized in order to fix my mommy tummy and repair my core strength I needed to go back to the basics of my physical therapy training and work on my inner core muscles first. It all starts with the core! It’s the foundation.
Over 6 years and 4 kids, I created a postpartum workout program that is simple, safe and effective using a step-by-step plan that enables you to restore your core strength and energy while getting rid of the postpartum pooch.
I can’t wait to share it with you - because if I can do it four times, I know you can, too!
If you are ready to finally regain your strength back through a quick postpartum workout program designed with the busy mom in mind….
Restore your core strength and lose the pooch in the easiest, quickest and safest way possible…
Eager to return to your athletic, energetic self with consistent workout habits.
And ready to build confidence and feel great in your skin again as a mom - this podcast is 100% for you!
Roll out your yoga mat, girl. It’s time to do this!

And now I’m here to say anything is possible when you put your mind to it. Are you determined? Are you ready to do what I did and get your pre-pregnancy body back? Listen to today's episodes to be inspired!

Routines are a lifesaver for moms—they help us stay consistent and provide a foundation for self-care. But there’s a downside to getting too comfortable: you risk slipping into autopilot.
Maybe you’ve been doing the same workout for months, or perhaps you’re squeezing in a quick, low-intensity session just to “check the box.” And while those are great steps, they might not be enough to move you forward and reach your fitness goals or your weight loss goals.
So, if you’ve been feeling stuck in a routine, wondering why you're not making the progress you want, or just looking for a way to shake things up, this episode is going to be a game-changer.
Keep Smiling,
Jena

In Chapter 17 of Atomic Habits, James Clear explains how an accountability partner can make all the difference. For busy, tired moms, this simple shift could be the key to sticking with healthy habits.

Ever wonder if a postpartum belly wrap is worth it? Is it a hoax or do they actually work?
In this episode, Are Postpartum Belly Wraps Worth It? Physical Therapist Tells All, we’re diving into the 4 main reasons why I love Postpartum belly wraps (AKA postpartum girdles and abdominal binders) and why you should too!
Some of the major advantages of postpartum belly wraps that I discuss in this episode include how the wraps give you a physical reminder to do abdominal bracing, how they help your uterus return to normal size, and how they provide abdominal support. I also discuss how postpartum belly wraps assist with good posture, self-confidence, and motivation.
For further information on the best belly wraps check out this article describing the Top 12 Postpartum Belly Wraps On The Market.
If you are like, “YES!”, I want to get a belly wrap right now, then I want to recommend getting yourself a Belly Bandit belly wrap here.
https://shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=811984&u=2049964&m=62855&urllink=&afftrack=
These are the #1 ranked belly wraps on the market. I am an affiliate because I love all their products, but especially their belly wraps.
Listen now to this week's episode to hear why I love postpartum belly wraps so much.

Is your core so weak that you can barely get off the floor when you are playing with your baby?
I want to help you regain your core strength back after having your baby, primarily to help you feel like yourself again but also so you can have a strong foundation to do all the things you want to do in life.
I want you to live your life to the fullest, whether that’s with sports, keeping up with your children or feeling confident in all that life has to bring. There is so much life ahead of you and now that you are a mom, you are taking on new roles and new responsibilities.
Don’t let your body slow you down from doing what you love. Don’t let pain slow you down. Don’t let the gap or the scar prevent you from living the life you have dreamed of living. Listen in to today's episode to hear the solution I have for easily and quickly restoring your strength postpartum.

Jena

Let me ask you something—when you first decided to get back into fitness after having your baby, what was your big “why”? Maybe it was to feel more energized, to fit into your favorite jeans, or just to reclaim a part of yourself that you felt you’d lost. But life gets busy, and it’s easy to lose sight of that initial motivation. So, how do you bring that “why” back into focus and use it to crush your goals? We are diving deep into this today on the podcast!

Jena
