I had the privilege and honor to be a featured speaker at the 2024 Purdue Women's Conference through the Purdue For Life Foundation, and as nervous as I was heading into it, I had an absolute blast!

A room of 58 spectacular humans heard my thoughts, and shared their own, on giving ourselves grace, defining our values and putting our energy and choices toward those values, ideas for distraction and focus, and you know I can't resist a FRIENDS reference - working to be okay with a PIVOT.

Please enjoy the recording of this empowering discussion where I got to share my passions at one of my favorite places on earth!

Boiler Up, and welcome back to The Perinatal Podcast! 🖤🚂💛

In this episode of The Perinatal Podcast, I had the enormous pleasure to chat with Alice Johnstone, The Postnatal Pilates Coach, to discuss the value of avoiding perfection and instead implementing care routines in small, consistent ways. We emphasize the importance of spending time on health and wellness, not just for ourselves but also as role models for future generations. Alice also challenges the notion of being "low maintenance" and encourages women to embrace taking up space. We explore the idea that it’s okay to not feel 100% all the time—it's okay to not be okay. Plus, we uncover the surprising connection between your TMJ and pelvis, and why evolving forward is the goal, never bouncing back. Welcome back to The Perinatal Podcast!
