    How to Have the Hospital Birth You Actually Want

    Send us Fan Mail This one is such an important episode. I’m talking to Sheva Mintz, a labor and delivery nurse at a high-risk hospital in Florida, mama of three, and someone who is deeply passionate about helping women walk into birth feeling educated, calm, and empowered. She believes in movement, breath, trusting the female body, and also in the value of medical support when it’s actually needed. If you’re planning a hospital birth and you want to feel informed instead of steamrolled, this one’s for you. We get into what advocacy really looks like in the delivery room, how to ask better questions before saying yes to interventions, what fetal monitoring is actually telling you, and why preparing for birth is about way more than just packing a hospital bag.  In this episode, we talk about:  what advocacy in the hospital actually looks like  the difference between informed consent and just going along with whatever is offered  what to ask before interventions like breaking your water  what fetal monitoring, decels, and positioning really mean  how to choose a provider who aligns with the kind of birth you want  why hospital birth does not have to mean giving your power away And a reminder... I’m also doing a free webinar on Sunday, June 7th all about how to prepare your body for birth. The details are linked here, and I would absolutely love to see you there.  If you’re pregnant, planning to be, or know someone who is, send this one to her.

    The Birth Story I Can’t Stop Thinking About

    Send us Fan Mail Season 4 is hereeee and we are kicking it off with such a special episode. In this conversation, I’m sitting down with Liat Buckman — women’s dietitian, hormone health educator, mama of four, and one of the smartest women I know when it comes to supporting women through their childbearing years. But today, we’re not talking about food. We’re talking about birth. And not just any birth. Liat is sharing the story of her first home birth after previous hospital births, and this episode honestly moved me to tears. We get into what led her to make this decision, how she chose her team, the fears she had going into it, and what it was like to prepare for birth in a way that felt deeply aligned, safe, and empowering.  This one is for you if:  you’re pregnant  you’re thinking about birth in a deeper way  you’ve had a hospital birth that didn’t feel great  you’re curious about home birth  or you just love a really beautiful, honest birth story In this episode, we talk about:  what led Liat to choose a home birth after prior hospital experiences  how she found the right midwife team and built trust with them  what kind of emotional and physical prep she did before labor  the fears and questions that came up around home birth safety  how labor actually started and what unfolded from there I loved this conversation because it’s such a reminder that birth is not just about outcomes. It’s about how a woman feels in the process. Safe. Seen. Supported. Heard. And that matters so much.  If you’re preparing for birth and want extra support, I’ve also included my free guides here to help you feel more ready in your body. Love you guys. Enjoy this one.

    How Deleting Social Media Changed My Life

    Send us Fan Mail If you’ve been feeling a little off lately, scrolling more, thinking more, trusting yourself less, this one’s for you sis!!!!!! In this episode, I’m sharing what happened in the land of Millie when I deleted social media… and why it changed way more than just my screen time. We’re talking about what it looks like to get quiet enough to hear your own body again.  This is how you start trusting yourself again.  Most women aren’t disconnected because they’re broken.  They’re disconnected because they’re overstimulated. And your body is talking but YOU AIN'T LISTENING HONEY Inside this episode:  What shifted (mentally + physically) when I got off social media  Why constant input blocks your intuition (and what to do about it)  The connection between your nervous system, pelvic floor, and emotional health  How to start hearing your inner voice again Simple, realistic ways to build self-care into your day (especially if you’re a mom or busy) We also get into what real self-care actually looks like (hint: it’s not more stuff), and how to create a life where you feel clear, grounded, and like yourself again. And if you’ve been craving a space like that, this is exactly why we created Core Girls Club. Coregirlsclub.com I got you 🤍 Send me a DM on Instoooosh @milliedpt or email me at milliedpt@gmail.com I love to know who I'm talking to!

    Why Your Core Work Isn’t Working and How to Fix It

    Send us Fan Mail Ever feel like you’re doing all the core exercises… but nothing is actually changing? In this episode, Dr. Millie and Zoe break down why so many women struggle to feel or see results from core work, especially postpartum. Spoiler alert: it’s usually not about doing more exercises, it’s about how you’re breathing, standing, and moving through your day. They talk honestly about postpartum bellies, diastasis recti, bloating, alignment, rib position, and the small habits that quietly sabotage your core without you even realizing it. This is a down-to-earth, practical conversation meant to help you finally connect to your core in a way that makes sense and actually works. You’ll walk away with three simple but powerful tips you can start using today to feel your core turn on, stop compensating, and build strength from the inside out without overthinking it. If you’ve ever wondered why your core exercises “aren’t working,” this episode is for you. Take one tip, try it this week, and let us know how it goes.

    When Slowing Down Becomes the Strongest Thing You Can Do

    Send us Fan Mail So many women move through life in a constant state of doing. We hustle, we achieve, we handle everything for everyone else, and somewhere along the way we forget how to slow down. In this conversation, Millie and Zoe get brutally honest about why slowing down feels so uncomfortable, why so many of us don’t feel safe with our own thoughts, and how we can finally begin tuning back into ourselves instead of running on autopilot. They share real stories, practical practices, and the mindset shifts that helped them move from overwhelm and survival mode into a more grounded, intentional way of living. You’ll hear why the nervous system plays such a huge role in how we show up, why “deserving to rest” is such a loaded idea for women, and how to find the middle ground between ambition and presence. If you’ve been craving permission to pause, breathe, reflect, and reconnect with yourself, this episode will feel like a deep exhale. This might be the sign you’ve been waiting for to finally step into your slowing-down era.
