Coming in at #5 on our list of top podcasts for 2025 is my conversation with Lindsey Bomgren.

What does fitness really look like for moms?

It’s not matching sets and flawless form.

It’s stopping mid-workout for a diaper change.

It’s navigating diastasis, prolapse, leaking, exhaustion, and a brain that hasn’t slept in three years.

It’s figuring out how to move in a body that’s been through pregnancy, postpartum, and perimenopause—without the judgment.

In this episode, I sit down with Lindsey Bomgren (@nourishmovelove), certified trainer, mom of three, and absolute powerhouse in the online fitness space. Lindsey brings the real talk about motherhood and movement—and how to keep showing up with strength and compassion through every season.

We dive into:

💥 The rise of online fitness & what it means for moms

💥 Diastasis recti, coning & doming explained (finally)

💥 Why cueing matters more than most realize

💥 The shifts through each pregnancy and postpartum recovery

💥 How perimenopause is changing the conversation

💥 And the quiet shame so many moms feel about their bodies—and how we push back

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, judged, or just not sure where to start—this one’s for you.

👟 Real fitness isn’t one-size-fits-all.
