This week I sat down to share a thought that’s been on my mind: while we’re busy raising our children, motherhood is also raising us.

The long nights, the big emotions, the constant changes — they shape us just as much as we’re shaping them. In this episode, I discuss how everyday experiences challenge us to grow, stretch, and uncover new aspects of ourselves that we never knew were there.

It’s not about getting it perfect, it’s about noticing how motherhood is its own kind of teacher — one that helps us rise into the women we’re becoming.

This week, I’m so excited to welcome Michelle, a private Pilates instructor who focuses on one-on-one training. We dive into why group fitness classes can feel intimidating and how Michelle creates a safe, supportive space where women can move at their own pace. She shares her story, the benefits of personalized Pilates, and simple ways to build strength, confidence, and a deeper connection with your body—especially during the busy seasons of motherhood.

Whether you’re brand new to Pilates or just looking for a more encouraging way to move, this conversation will leave you feeling inspired to approach fitness with more kindness and confidence.

Life after kids doesn’t just change your schedule—it changes your marriage. In this episode, Nicole opens up about the season where she and Ben felt more like roommates than partners, and how they found their way back to each other. From exhaustion and snapping over small things, to remembering they’re on the same team, Nicole shares the honest struggles—and the surprising shifts—that helped strengthen their marriage after kids.

If you’ve ever felt distant from your partner, jealous of their “breaks,” or wondered if the love is still there, this conversation is for you. You’ll hear practical ways to reconnect, the power of asking for help, and encouragement that your marriage isn’t broken—it’s evolving.

Because at the end of the day, your kids don’t just need parents who love them… they need parents who still choose each other.
