from More than Milestones · host Kaitlin Rickerd

Too often, women walk into pregnancy and postpartum without the tools and education they deserve. In this episode, KC is joined by Krystle Howald and Amy Kiefer, founders of Expecting and Empowered, to share how they’re changing the conversation around women’s health.Together, they dive into the importance of pelvic floor therapy, the differences between C-section and vaginal delivery recovery, and why preventative care is essential for every mom. Krystle and Amy highlight the distinction between what’s common and what’s actually normal postpartum, and they emphasize the role of strength training and self-care in protecting long-term health.This conversation is both empowering and practical, offering insight into how moms can adapt movement to fit their busy schedules, advocate for themselves in the healthcare system, and lean on community support during one of the most transformative seasons of life.Follow Expecting and Empowered on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/expectingandempowered/Expecting and Empowered’s Website:https://www.expectingandempowered.com/.
