Nicole Scheitlin

About this episode

Oh the things I wish I knew at the beginning of my first pregnancy! This episode is a little flashback to almost 5 years ago when I started my prenatal fitness journey and some things I would do differently. But, you really don't know what you don't know. And, the truth is, all of these inspired the work I do today as a Pre and Postnatal Fitness Coach. Join me as I share some different mindsets and tactical approaches I would have taken to improve my pregnancy experience, and how you can make these shift right now to have a strong, healthy pregnancy journey.
