Now and Then
I’d be lying if I said I don’t miss the body on the right sometimes but I’m endlessly thankful for the one on the left.
In May 2024, I was training hard and completed my 2nd HYROX event. strong, driven, and proud. In October 2025, 5 months post pregnancy I stepped back into a mini fitness event, carrying a whole new kind of strength.
Pregnancy and motherhood changed everything my body, my mindset, my priorities. The fact that this body carried life and brought my baby into the world still amazes me.
And just because someone looks more aesthetic doesn’t mean they’re fitter, stronger, or more capable than you. Body image shouldn’t be the focus it’s about what your body can do.
This isn’t about comparing one version of me to another. It’s about gratitude for every season, every shape, every stage. Because strength doesn’t always look the same, but it’s always there. 💪💫
