The Go-To Podcast for Postpartum Moms Who Want to Be Strong and Confident Again!
*****TOP 3% GLOBALLY-RANKED PODCAST*****
Do you wish you could finally lose the postpartum pooch?
Are you frustrated every time you zip up those jeans - again - and no amount of Spanx seems to help?
Are you searching for the energy to work out, but each day feels like an uphill battle?
Do you crave those sweet compliments from your husband, like “babe, you’re looking amazing”?
I’m so excited you’re here, mama! This podcast will help you lose the pooch and feel strong again after having a baby, especially in your core and pelvic floor. Through easy, simple, and safe workouts that you can do from home, you’ll gain confidence, boost your energy to play with your baby more, and feel incredible slipping into that favorite dress you haven’t worn since your honeymoon.
Hey, I’m Jena - a physical therapist, wife and mama of four. After each of my pregnancies I, too, struggled with losing my postpartum pooch, low energy levels and didn’t know how to regain my strength back. As a fitness lover, I craved working out like I did before having all those babies, but found that my body just wasn’t cut out for high-intensity workouts. And without having healed fully from pregnancy, I was an injury waiting to happen.
I finally realized in order to fix my mommy tummy and repair my core strength I needed to go back to the basics of my physical therapy training and work on my inner core muscles first. It all starts with the core! It’s the foundation.
Over 6 years and 4 kids, I created a postpartum workout program that is simple, safe and effective using a step-by-step plan that enables you to restore your core strength and energy while getting rid of the postpartum pooch.
I can’t wait to share it with you - because if I can do it four times, I know you can, too!
If you are ready to finally regain your strength back through a quick postpartum workout program designed with the busy mom in mind….
Restore your core strength and lose the pooch in the easiest, quickest and safest way possible…
Eager to return to your athletic, energetic self with consistent workout habits.
And ready to build confidence and feel great in your skin again as a mom - this podcast is 100% for you!
Roll out your yoga mat, girl. It’s time to do this!

96 // My Ultimate Food Hacking System for Quick Meal Planning as a Busy Mom
If you are struggling with running out of time in your day as a busy mom and you can’t find time to even cook a decent meal for your family, this episode is for you.
I have created an amazing food system to help me save time each week when it comes to meal planning, grocery shopping, and cooking. Ever since I started this meal system, I have saved 2 hours a week. Now that I have this extra time every week I am able to get a great workout in every morning. I don’t feel rushed with my workouts and I can focus more on choosing healthier meals rather than quick fast food dinners.
Yes, systems make me a healthier person and they can for you too. And of course, I get more sleep with this extra time that I have throughout the week.
If you are ready to learn the systems I learned from Chelsi Jo’s courses (Systemize Your Life and Systemize Your Biz) you can get access to them right now for an amazing promotion. She is doing a buy one get one free promotion now until July 17th.
Normally she sells her programs separately but you can get one for free when you enroll in the other. Plus, you can use my promo code: JENA100 and save another $100 off.
