Mirrors Lie, Goals Don't

If you’ve been stuck in the cycle of picking yourself apart postpartum, it’s time to flip the script. In this episode, I’m diving into my personal experience with body image struggles and how unexpectedly winning a race changed everything for me. Because, if becoming a mom (x3) has taught me anything, chasing physical goals is the key to rebuilding confidence, energy, and joy after birth.We’ll chat about how performance-based goals shift the focus from appearance to capability, why small daily wins matter more than aesthetics, and how physical challenges can help you manage stress, stay motivated, and feel more present with your family. Bottom line: it’s time to set yourself a big, scary goal because your postpartum mental health kind of depends on it if you want to survive in a world of filters, photoshop, sleazy advertising, bounce-back culture, and scammy influencers. Whether it’s running your first 5K, hitting a new strength milestone, or simply staying consistent, this episode will help you choose goals that actually move you forward.Can’t wait to chat!XO, Coach Sarah This is a public episode.
