We are joined by Madeline Custer, the fitness expert and mom of three behind Madeline Moves. If you've ever felt lost after a C-section, overwhelmed by your postpartum body, or like you just don't have time to work out, this one's for you.Madeline opens up about her journey through miscarriage, three C-sections, and an unexpected third pregnancy — and how each experience shaped her mission to create accessible fitness resources for moms. We dig into why strength training beats cardio for long-term results, how 30 minutes can be enough (really), and what actually gives when you're a mom prioritizing her health.We also get into her easy high-protein meal hacks for the moms who hate cooking, her upcoming Move Together 5-week challenge, and the mindset shift that changed everything: normal is sacred.Whether you're a working mom, stay-at-home mom, or somewhere in between — this conversation will leave you feeling motivated, seen, and ready to pick up some weights.Follow Madeline Custer on Instagram @madeline_moves  Offer: $20 off (get your first month free!)Code: WSWWDValid Through: 12/31/26You can enter the code at checkout, or use this link where it’s already applied: https://app.movesapp.com/checkout?coupon=WSWWD&planId=plan_NhXa7kLhh8BxyV&utm_source=wswwdpodcastThis episode is brought to you in part by our sponsors:House of Yes: Head to houseofyesfoods.com and use code WSWWD15 for 15% off your first order Anomaly Health: Go to ⁠⁠tryanomalyhealth.com⁠⁠ and use discount code WSWWD20 for a 20% of your first purchase.
