    EP 78: IFBB Pro Brooklyn Goodsell: Turning Postpartum Depression into Purpose and a Pro Card

    In this week’s episode of Bikinis After Babies, we welcome Brooklyn Goodsell, an IFBB Fit Model Pro, wife, mother and online coach.  Brooklyn’s story is one that will truly resonate with so many women — especially mothers who have walked through the physical and emotional challenges that come after childbirth.  Brooklyn battled postpartum depression after the birth of her son 6 years ago— a mental health struggle that SO many women silently battle, yet so few openly talk about.  Brooklyn turned her deepest struggle into her greatest strength, using that pain as fuel for her transformation. Through relentless dedication, she rebuilt her body and mind, stepping on stage in the bikini division and eventually fit model this past year and earning her IFBB pro card at the 2025 Olympia Amateur after 10 years competing. Brooklyn shares how she navigated getting back on stage after having her son and working through the setbacks and obstacles that she faced along the way as well as making the switch to fit model in 2025 after a disappointing finish in her final bikini competition.  Brooklyn talks about the mental fortitude required to keep showing up as she battled for her pro card this season, eventually taking home that title and accomplishing her goal of becoming an IFBB pro!!  Brooklyn's story serves as a beacon of hope for women facing similar challenges, emphasizing that persistence and self-belief can lead to achieving one's goals.

    Ep 75: IFBB Fit Model Pro Meaghan Taylor: Last Minute Division Switch Leads to Pro Card After 9 Yrs

    In this week’s episode of Bikini's After Babies, we are joined by IFBB Fit Model Pro Meaghan Taylor.  Meaghan earned her pro card at NPC North Americans this past August winning her Fit Model 45+ class and taking home the 45+ overall to clinch her spot in the pro league!! Meaghan is a wife, a mother of 3, an acute care nurse practitioner and a former marathon runner!  Meaghan turned her passion for running into a passion for weight lifting after her third pregnancy when things just didn’t seem to “go back” to the way they were pre-baby.  She competed in her first bikini competition in 2017 and wasted no time hitting the national stage.  Meaghan shares her journey of competing back to back summers on the national circuit, coming close to her IFBB Bikini pro card numerous times.  This year, with the introduction of Fit Model, Meaghan decided to throw her hat in the ring and see how she would do after a disappointing placing at Masters Nationals.  Despite her reluctance due to the unknown, Meaghan took the stage and brought home her pro card, proving to herself, her family and most importantly her children that persistence pays off!!!!!  In this episode, we dive deep into some of the misconceptions of the fit model division and Meaghan compares and contrasts the two, sharing all of her insight into what she has learned in this new chapter of her bodybuilding journey!    Meaghan is also a vegetarian athlete who trains exclusively at home in her home gym, proving that success in bodybuilding is not a one size fits all approach!!  You won’t want to miss this jam packed, inspiring episode!!   We hope that you enjoyed this episode and if so, we would LOVE it if you would rate, subscribe, and leave us reviews on how this podcast has helped you 💕 We’d also love to hear from you about future topics you would like us to discuss so please leave us a comment or reach out to us with your questions and suggestions!
