Individualization!

One of my favorite things to do is educate both my clients and healthcare providers about fitness in the perinatal period. There is so much that needs to change so much about the way we approach this discussion in the clinical setting. Sometimes it doesn’t happen at all and often times it is brief, inaccurate, and instills fear in the people who are trying to get moving or who want to stay moving. 

My guest today is Rachel Mast. She is a Certified Professional Midwife at the New Beginnings Birthing Center in Meridian, Idaho. Rachel is a gymnast, a crossfitter, and also does jujitsu- Competitively! She is a CFL2 and a P&PA coach herself. 

Note: Rachel and I start off discussing her experience with hyperemesis and a bit about the very special practice that she works in which is a mixed practice of CNMs and CPMs.
