113- Choosing yourself Inside the Chaos of Postpartum and Motherhood
Pelvic Floor, Core & More | Healing Beyond Kegels: Core Rehab, Prenatal Fitness, Birth Prep, Postpartum Recovery, Nervous SysAbout this episode
In this episode of Pelvic Floor, Core & More , we’re talking about something that doesn’t get enough space in healing conversations: ✨ What it really means to choose yourself — in the middle of the mess. Motherhood, healing, and life can feel like a swirl of demands. And in that chaos, so many women lose the one thing that keeps them grounded — their own voice, needs, and nervous system. If you’ve ever felt like there’s no space for you… this is the episode that gives you space back. You’ll Learn: 🌿 What “choosing yourself” really means beyond bubble baths and checklists 🌿 How to know if you’re stuck in self-abandonment or override 🌿 Simple nervous system tools to reconnect with your body daily 🌿 How to build small rituals of self-honoring, even when everything feels loud 🌿 Why healing doesn’t require perfect stillness — just presence Healing isn’t about waiting for a quiet moment — it’s about learning to choose yourself even in the mess. This episode is your reminder that you don’t need a perfect schedule, the right mindset, or to feel “ready” to begin healing. You just need to say yes — to you. Inside this vulnerable, fire-filled episode, I share: Why so many women delay healing — and how it shows up in the body The subtle ways you’re already choosing everyone else over your own well-being How to build self-trust again, one breath at a time A few small ways to claim your healing today (Body Check, breathwork, guided app tools) What happens when you stop waiting and start restoring Keywords: nervous system healing, choosing yourself, self-trust, pelvic floor support, healing while busy, RESTORE program, somatic healing, embodiment Resources Mentioned: 💖 RESTORE — My 12-week healing program for your core, pelvic floor, and nervous system 📲 Pelvic Floor, Core & More App — Breathwork, movement, and nervous system support in your pocket 🎙️ Listen to: " What to Do When You Feel Disconnected From Your Body " – a perfect companion episode to this one Let’s Stay Connected: 💫 Begin Your Journey with RESTORE & Continue the Full Embodiment Inside The Empowered Core Collective !
