Episode 30: Vanessa Long on her athleticism through motherhood

Vanessa felt like if she COULD, then she SHOULD when it came to pushing herself in the gym while pregnant. She felt the pressure to be a "healthy role model" in her gym during pregnancy and postpartum even though she was tired, really tired. In this episode, Vanessa Long shares her journey through motherhood (so far) as an athlete with athlete brain. We hope that by having this conversation, we can help you navigate these periods of evolution with more grace, empathy, and acceptance. You won't want to miss this one!
