Strong Mamas Rachel Giampietro

I was so thrilled to have the epic Lael Stone on the podcast today. She is a speaker, educator and author and an incredible woman who is changing the word in so many ways through her various forms of service for children, parents, educators, schools, businesses, sports teams and so much more!

In this podcast we spoke about all the ways we can create connection & stay to connected to our children from those early years all the way to teenagers.

We spoke about:
Children being either in balance/ out of balance Importance of connection before direction The importance of play for both younger and older yearsWhere to start when we feel that we just a hot mess in parentingWhy it’s not our children’s job to make us feel good about ourselves The stories we bring to parenthood How to deal with kids with HUGE feelingsLooking back on the way she parterned her children - with hindsight what would she do differently, worry about less, etcAdvice for any mums trying to "do it all" raising business & babiesHer amazing school (yes she literally created her own school) — Why did she start it? What makes it different to “normal” schools?If there is anything she would DO/ NOT DO if she had your time againI left feeling so inspired to just simplify everything in my life so I can spend more time with my kids, just playing & connecting and having fun. I really hope you enjoy this episode!

Another episode with my beautiful sister where we share our experience/relationship to food, exercise & body image during our pregnancies and now as mothers. The intention of this episode is to shed light on healthy & positive pregnancy experiences we believe all women can have in their own way when they are truly informed on what's possible, what's beneficial, and what is most likely to contribute to a positive experience from the inside out.
 
Some of what we share is:
Our relationships with our body & food during pregnancyWhat we struggled with, what we found easier than we thoughtWhat we believe actually contributes to a healthy & "positive" pregnancy & post partum experienceHow easy it can be to have a fit & healthy pregnancyHow SAFE strength training during pregnancy is - but more importantly how BENEFICIAL it is too.How to navigate body image and trust your bodies journeyHow to educate yourself on the important things to know about your growing and changing bodyHow to approach food and understand calorie & macro requirements during pregnancy How we recovered post-partum and what we learnt about our bodies during the whole process Common pregnancy exercise misconceptions/myths How to minimize abdominal separation  & pelvic floor weakness How to train core during pregnancy Pregnancy safe strength training recommendations How to implement a healthy pregnancy diet The importance of seeing a women’s health Physio Plus so much more!**What we share is based on our personal experiences and a combination of my professional experience has a fully certified pre & post natal coach.
**None of what is shared here intends to diagnose or treat any pregnancy/post natal health issues and does not replace medical advice.
