Still noticing tummy weakness months (or even years) after having your baby? You’re not alone. In this episode, I answer a member’s question about ab separation — and share why it’s never too late to feel strong again.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

What ab separation (diastasis recti) really is — and why the term “separation” can be misleading.
What counts as normal postpartum abdominal changes (hint: a mild gap is not a problem).
Why the “missed window” for recovery is a myth.
Safe, functional exercises to begin rebuilding your core.
When a gap might need professional assessment — and why fear, not the separation itself, often holds women back.
How to reframe the question from “How do I close the gap?” to “How strong can I get today?”
