You’re years out from birth, but you’re still caught in the gap between “rehab” and “athleticism.”

Most moms 1–5+ years postpartum fall into two traps:
👉You’re either stuck in a rehab loop doing the same “safe” exercises
👉Or you jumped back into high-intensity training too fast—missing the foundation and ending up getting injured or having pelvic floor symptoms.

To feel like an athlete again, you need a whole-body strategy. Inside Spice It Up School, we stop fixing “parts” and start owning the system.

These 6 exercises are designed to teach you the foundations of that shift:

1️⃣ Breathing: Expanding 360° so you can manage pressure well.
2️⃣ Stacking: Moving the ribs BACK so pressure stops dumping forward and down.
3️⃣ Hip Shifting: Creating space in the back of the pelvis to finally let go of pelvic floor tension.
4️⃣ All Planes of Motion: Training your body to be strong while rotating and shifting, not just moving in a straight line.
5️⃣ Progressive Overload: Building actual capacity so your system can handle the demands of your life (and your gym).

The exercises👇
FFE Wall Split Squat With Reach
Knee Push Up w/ Hamstrings
Split Stance Hinge Yielding
Squatty Hip Shift w/ Row & Reach
Lateral Shift KB Pass
Short Lever Side Plank

Stop “muscling” your way through workouts and start building a foundation that will help you feel like YOU again.

Whether you’re 6 months or 6 years out, it’s time to bridge the gap.

I told myself I wouldn’t do this trend because I felt like I didn’t do anything extraordinary in 2016😅.

Hmm I take that back😂.

I grew a f*cking human being.
I stayed home with 3 kids under 4
I survived living in an Airbnb (completely NOT childproof) for 10 weeks.
I moved to our new home.
I birthed our third baby like a badass.
I dreamed about starting a business to help moms have better birth and postpartum experiences💕.

What a ride it’s been. I’m grateful for it all✨.

Don’t underestimate the power of your nervous system.

I see it all the time👇.

Moms are stuck in a state of high alert, chronic stress, and tight pelvic floors😬.

You can stretch til the cows 🐄 come home but if you’re not addressing your nervous system, your pelvic floor is still going to be tight.

I know. Easier said than done. But I’m here to support you and remind you😘.

Your pelvic floor doesn’t work in isolation. Neither should your training. 🤝If you’ve done postpartum rehab after kids, ...

Your pelvic floor doesn’t work in isolation. Neither should your training. 🤝

If you’ve done postpartum rehab after kids, you have a great foundation. But to bridge the gap back to the gym, you need a whole-body approach.

You need to know how your rib cage, your breath, and your foot pressure all play into how your pelvic floor handles a heavy squat or a run.

You don’t just need a “program.” You need a coach who gets it. I created Spice It Up School to be the bridge between the clinical “all-clear” and the high-level strength you’re craving. I work as a team with the foundations your PT gave you to help you build real-world capacity.

The Spice It Up School Waitlist for Round #7 is officially OPEN🤩.

I’m limiting this cohort to 15 women so I can provide the daily, personalized coaching you need to feel bulletproof.

Hey, I’m Julie!

I coach women who need guidance in pregnancy and postpartum fitness. I give them the tools and support to have better birth experiences and easier postpartum recoveries.

I am a Pre and Postnatal Corrective Exercise Specialist and I have a Bachelor and Master’s degree in Exercise Science. I also spent 15 years of my life as a high level competitive swimmer. I have years of experience in coaching but my personal journey as a pregnant woman and mother of 3 beautiful children is what lit my passion to empower women like YOU in this stage of life.

And when I’m not educating or empowering women in pregnancy and postpartum, I can be found enjoying a walk with my family and my dog Bella. I also love to plan our family vacations to the beach and swim outside in the summertime.
