In this episode, I’m sharing four things I tell every active mom about postpartum recovery, especially when you’re eager to get back to running, lifting, CrossFit, or whatever makes you feel like yourself. Your body has been through a huge change, and knowing what to expect can make the recovery process feel a whole lot less overwhelming.I talk about why you might feel weaker than ever in those first few weeks, why you can’t compare your recovery to anyone else’s (or even your own previous pregnancy), and why your mind may feel ready to exercise before your body actually is. I also break down why postpartum recovery isn’t perfectly linear and how sleep, hormones, daily activity, and the demands of motherhood can all affect how you feel from day to day.Make sure to hit follow/subscribe so you never miss an episode!Connect with Dr. Karlie:Follow on Instagram @drkarlieCheck out the websiteResources & Links:The NEW Postpartum Plan WAITLISTCheck out all my plans and resources HEREMy most popular plan: Get Your Body Back - Postpartum Plan - use code ATHLETE for a discountC-SECTION edition: Get Your Body Back - use code ATHLETE for a discountMentioned in this episode:Stop leaking and start feeling strong again.

In this episode, I’m breaking down the “mom pooch” and why doing more ab exercises might not be the answer. If you’ve been doing planks, crunches, Pilates, or endless deep core exercises and still don’t feel like your stomach has come back after having babies, there may be more going on than just needing stronger abs.I talk about the different things that can contribute to a postpartum belly, why healing your core is about function, not just closing a gap, and why breathing, pelvic floor function, progressive strength, and full-body movements all matter. Plus, I share what happened when I gave myself an umbilical hernia after my second baby and how that experience changed the way I approach postpartum core rehab.Make sure to hit follow/subscribe so you never miss an episode!Connect with Dr. Karlie:Follow on Instagram @drkarlieCheck out the websiteResources & Links:Episode 59.

In this episode, I’m breaking down why you might still be peeing your pants when you sneeze, jump, run, or lift, and why doing more Kegels isn’t necessarily the answer. Leaking after having a baby is incredibly common, but that doesn’t mean it’s something you have to accept forever.I explain how your pelvic floor works as part of your larger core system, why leaking can be caused by more than weakness, and how things like coordination, pressure management, breathing, glute strength, and even foot and hip stability can play a role. I also share how I approach rebuilding pelvic floor function, from learning to contract and fully relax to adding functional strength and gradually training for impact, so you can get back to the activities you love without leaking.Make sure to hit follow/subscribe so you never miss an episode!Connect with Dr. Karlie:Follow on Instagram @drkarlieCheck out the websiteResources & Links:Pelvic Floor Plan - use code PODCAST for 20% off!Check out all my plans and resources HEREMy most popular plan: Get Your Body Back - Postpartum Plan - use code ATHLETE for a discountC-SECTION edition: Get your body back - use code ATHLETE for a discount
In this Ask Anything episode, I’m answering some of the most common questions I get about pregnancy and fitness. I’m talking about outdated pregnancy exercise advice, how hard you can safely work out during pregnancy, and why the old 140 heart rate rule is no longer recommended. I also share how I use the talk test with my patients and why exercise remains one of the best things you can do for both pregnancy and postpartum recovery.Tune in to hear what I have to say about pregnancy-specific core training, the research on exercise and C-section rates, what to do about pubic bone and pelvic girdle pain, and how I approach exercise modifications throughout each trimester. Plus, I explain my thoughts on coning and doming, exercising on your back during pregnancy, and staying active while still giving yourself plenty of grace as your body changes.Make sure to hit follow/subscribe so you never miss an episode!Connect with Dr. Karlie:Follow on Instagram @drkarlieCheck out the websiteResources & Links:Episode 52.

In this episode, I’m breaking down why strong moms don’t jump right back into running at 6 weeks postpartum, even if they feel “cleared” to exercise. I talk about what your body is still healing from during that early postpartum phase, why leaking and heaviness are signs to pay attention to, and how to safely rebuild strength before returning to impact.I also share the gradual approach I use with my patients to return to running postpartum, including breath work, core and pelvic floor rehab, strength training, and guidance on how to test your body without pushing too far, too fast. My goal is to help you feel strong and confident as you get back to the activities you love while protecting your long-term recovery.Make sure to hit follow/subscribe so you never miss an episode!Connect with Dr. Karlie:Follow on Instagram @drkarlieCheck out the websiteResources & Links:Join the waitlist for my Pelvic Floor Fix PlanCheck out all my plans and resources HEREMy most popular plan: Get Your Body Back - Postpartum Plan - use code ATHLETE for a discountC-SECTION edition: Get your body back - use code ATHLETE for a discountFREE DOWNLOAD: Fix Your “Mommy Pooch”
In this episode, I’m breaking down why strong moms don’t ignore diastasis recti postpartum. Whether you’re newly postpartum or years out from having babies, this episode will help you understand what’s really going on in your core and what you can do to feel strong again.I talk about what diastasis recti actually is, why almost every woman experiences some degree of ab separation during pregnancy, and why healing diastasis is about so much more than closing the gap. I also share the biggest myths I hear in my office, including “just give it time” and “never do abs again,” plus the exact approach I use with my postpartum patients to rebuild their core safely and effectively.Make sure to hit follow/subscribe so you never miss an episode!Connect with Dr. Karlie:Follow on Instagram @drkarlieCheck out the websiteResources & Links:Join the waitlist for my Pelvic Floor Fix PlanGet your Every Mom Is An Athlete swag HERECheck out all my plans and resources HEREMy most popular plan: Get Your Body Back - Postpartum Plan - use code ATHLETE for a discountC-SECTION edition: Get your body back - use code ATHLETE for a discountFREE DOWNLOAD: Fix Your “Mommy Pooch”
In this episode, I’m breaking down why postpartum recovery is about so much more than just doing kegels. I talk about how the pelvic floor actually works with your core, diaphragm, glutes, and hips as one connected system, and why leaking, heaviness, pain, or weakness postpartum are signs that your body needs better coordination and support, not just more squeezing.I also walk you through the breathing, bracing, glute, and mobility work I start with for postpartum moms in my office, how to reconnect with your deep core after birth, and why progressive strengthening matters for long-term healing. If you’ve ever been told to “just do your kegels” and still don’t feel strong, stable, or supported postpartum, this episode is for you.Make sure to hit follow/subscribe so you never miss an episode!Connect with Dr. Karlie:Follow on Instagram @drkarlieCheck out the websiteResources & Links:Join the waitlist for my Pelvic Floor Fix PlanC-SECTION edition: Get your body backCheck out all my plans and resources HEREMy most popular plan: Get Your Body Back - Postpartum PlanFREE DOWNLOAD: Fix Your “Mommy Pooch”
In this episode, I’m breaking down why strong moms do not need to wait six weeks to start postpartum recovery and what I actually recommend doing in those first two weeks after birth. I talk about the difference between gentle rehab and jumping back into intense workouts, why breathing and core connection matter so much early postpartum, and the common mistakes I see moms make when returning to exercise too quickly.I also dive into walking postpartum, pelvic floor healing, and the symptoms you should never ignore, like leaking, heaviness, or pain.
