About this episode

Your core and pelvic floor are under a lot of stress in pregnancy and birth. This episode highlights what I feel is one of the best kept and underrated "secrets" for maintaining core and pelvic floor health throughout pregnancy and postpartum. I'll teach you a simple technique you can do on a daily basis in less than 3 minutes! No equipment needed. I've also included a bonus video to go along with this episode when you join Strong Mama Insiders (free!).
