I’ve been glued to the Olympics this week and watching the US bobsled team was incredible!

There’s this unspoken rule that once you hit a certain age or have kids, you should just settle for “maintenance mode.” But watching these moms compete at the highest level proves that our bodies are capable of so much more than we give them credit for.

It isn’t an overnight thing. It takes determination and a support system that actually has your back. But it’s a massive reminder that you don’t have to accept being “fragile” just because you’re a mom in her 30s or 40s.

You aren’t just trying to get back to who you were before kids. You’re building a version of yourself that is stronger and more resilient than she’s ever been.

⚠️ LAST CALL: This is the final week to join the Spice It Up School waitlist. If you’re ready to see what you’re actually capable of, now is the time.

💬 Comment SPICE and I’ll DM you the link to join the waitlist (15 spots | $120 off). We start March 16th!

If a “weak core” was the problem, your back would have stopped hurting a long time ago.

The advice to just strengthen your core or squeeze your glutes is failing moms. Why?

Because you can’t strengthen a body that is fundamentally stuck or tight. If your pelvis has lost its ability to shift and rotate, pressure has nowhere to go but into your pelvic floor. That “little bit of leaking” isn’t a strength issue—it’s a space issue.

We don’t need more planks. We need to create space, reduce tension, and learn to hip shift!

🔹Finding space in the back of the pelvis.
🔹Unlocking the internal rotation you’ve been missing.
🔹The Result: A body that moves with confidence, without pain or leaks.

⚠️ LAST WEEK TO JOIN THE SPICE IT UP SCHOOL WAITLIST. ⚠️

This is your final chance for first dibs on the 15 spots, the $120 discount, and my 3-part video series.

Spice It Up School is for you if you are 3+ months to 15+ years postpartum! It’s never too late to build strength intentionally and support your core & pelvic floor.

After seeing all the Valentine’s posts I HAD to share about mine because he’s the best😉.

I am writing this from the bathtub🛀, relaxing in Epsom Salt that he had hidden before Christmas but found this morning😂.

There’s no one else I would rather laugh with or laugh at🤭.

It’s cliche AF but we are seriously a good match. Opposites in many ways. But with a deep love for each other and a commitment to doing the work (IYKYK).

Happy Valentine’s Day all❤️!

I know that feeling of holding your breath before you move.

The feeling of heaviness. The fear that if you move too fast or lift too heavy, your body might fail you.

We’ve been conditioned to think that after kids, we are somehow less—that we have to be “managed” rather than empowered.

But I want you to know something: You aren’t broken. You’ve been through a massive season of change, and your body is still figuring out how to navigate its new strength.

“Gentle” rehab has its place, but it shouldn’t be where you live forever. Your life is full of beautiful, high-impact chaos, and you deserve a body that can meet it with confidence.

Swipe through to see how we bridge that gap (just like we do inside Spice It Up School):

🤍 Learning to Yield: Teaching your system how to “catch” and absorb life’s pressure so your pelvic floor doesn’t have to carry the burden alone.
🤍 Learning to Overcome: Finding that spring and power again, so you can move, jump, and play without a second thought.

You deserve to feel unstoppable in your own skin.

✨ The Spice It Up School waitlist is only open for 9 more days!!

This program is more than a workout—it’s about rediscovering what you’re capable of. Perfect if you are 3+ months to YEARS postpartum!

💬 Comment “SPICE” and I’ll send you the link to join us. We start March 16th.

By joining the waitlist, you’ll get:

🎁 First dibs (only 15 spots to keep things high-touch).
🎁 My 3-part video series on this whole-body approach.
🎁 $120 OFF enrollment.

You’ve spent so much time caring for everyone else. This season is for you💪.

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.

If you’re dying to know more, here are 5 things you don’t know about me...
