Hey, Mama
I’m Cynthia, a Holistic Lifestyle and Exercise Coach for women transitioning into motherhood.
Were you expecting to “bounce back” sooner after the baby?
Are you experiencing lingering birth injuries, hormonal issues, or trouble losing weight?
Is your body just not functioning the way it did before?
Are you beating yourself up for not being in the shape you wish you were in?
If you’ve been scrolling your phone
and comparing yourself to other new moms
— their photos, their bodies, their stats —
and you’ve been wondering why it’s so much harder to see the results that you want,
I want you to know...
BIRTH, POSTPARTUM, AND
NEW MOTHERHOOD IS AN INITIATION INTO
A NEW YOU.
The Truth is…
Your body has been completely rearranged to nourish a child. You’re not the same. Nothing is the same. And - despite what they all say, there is no going back.
If you are feeling like...
✔️ you’re tapped out from the stress of the adjustments of your new mom life
✔️ you don’t have the time (or energy) you used to have
✔️ your old routine is nearly impossible
✔️ and you’re just trying to survive, one day at a time
I want you to know that you don’t have to walk this path alone
With the right help you can completely skip the dead-end paths of restrictive dieting, ineffective training, and instead: you can open yourself up to experience your body in a way that allows you to thrive in motherhood.
You don’t have to accept the narrative that motherhood wrecks you.
You don’t have to spend your life getting your body back.
There’s another way: it’s training, eating, and living in harmony with the female flow
Hi, I’m Cynthia
I’m a mother, a personal trainer, an athlete, and a health coach for women and mothers. I help women approach training, fitness, health, and mothering, from what I often refer to as the feminine flow.
Before my daughter was born, I was completely unaware of what was about to happen within me and in my life.
MOTHERHOOD THREW ME
INTO THE UNDERWORLD.
My daughter’s birth catalyzed a three-year quest for truth. I questioned, searched, and examined the dominant cultural narratives surrounding women’s health — and very specifically the health of new mothers.
I came face-to-face with the reality that the majority of women are bombarded with false narratives and unrealistic expectations of what early motherhood is and what it requires.
Why are we told we can do it all?
Why are we told it’s six weeks until “normal”?
Why aren’t we told we’re about to walk into the biggest personal transformation of our lives?
Like so many others I believed the lies. I expected to “get back to my old self” in six weeks. I thought I’d pick up where I left off — busting out my chin ups, maxing out my deadlifts, and hiking my regular hikes.
⬇That’s me pregnant doing a chin up, deadlifting 235 lbs, and doing a handstand.
After the baby,
I tried to train like
I previously trained,
but it wasn’t working.
My hormones were irregular
My core and pelvic floor weren’t healing
and I felt stressed being pulled in a million different directions every day
I was trying to balance my daughter’s needs with my own. I was trying to find the path into motherhood that included both the athlete in me and embraced the massive transformation I was experiencing.
I consulted with male trainers, who while good intentioned, had no first-hand experience healing from the physical, psychological, and emotional changes that occur when a woman is initiated into motherhood.
I continued to cling tightly to what had worked for me before the baby,
despite all my symptoms getting worse and worse.
MY BODY WAS SCREAMING OUT TO ME, AND I WAS REFUSING TO LISTEN.
I DIDN’T KNOW HOW TO STOP AND I DIDN’T KNOW HOW TO HEAR HER.
Finally, I surrendered. I admitted I didn’t know what to do. I allowed myself to pause. I prayed.
The answer to my struggle came when I took the hand of a wise woman who was able to lead me through the transformation that I had been stubbornly avoiding.
SHE WAS ABLE TO GUIDE ME THROUGH THE UNDERWORLD
INTO THE EMBODIED EXPERIENCE OF
Being a mother
With her help, I finally broke through into a new way of living.
That new way of living was the world of the feminine — where I learned to listen to my own body and to flow with its cyclical fluctuations. This way of living had been foreign to me for all of my life until that point.
I learned to rest instead of push.
I learned to trust my body’s healing process.
I learned not to override my body’s cues and signals.
There are good reasons that the constant pushing, the excessive cardio, the mental overdrive, and the deprivation dieting strategies to get back in shape do not work for women, especially new moms.
I learned the reasons why these strategies are making everything harder (and much worse) for women.
Within months of working with my mentor: my cycle regularized, my core and pelvic floor strengthened, and my body and nervous system began to heal. Not only that, I began to blossom into the mother I knew I was meant to be.
The changes I experienced were so transformative, that I knew I’d one day be extending my hand to other new mothers to guide them through the transformation that’s set in motion when this feminine wisdom is reclaimed.
MY CYCLE BECAME MY GUIDING PRINCIPLE FOR HOW TO LIVE AND HOW TO THRIVE, AND:
it can be yours too.
If you don’t want to:
☞live with the story that motherhood wrecks you
☞stay trapped in the fight against your body and the baby weight
☞live with the pelvic floor pain, the incontinence, and the energy-draining health challenges...
You don’t have to.
In a culture that tells you to push harder, go faster, and “bounce back” quicker, it’s not easy to brave a new path, and to make changes that go against everything you’ve been taught, but I promise that it’s worth it.
Are you ready to connect with your body and truly thrive as a woman and a mother?
Great, because I’m ready to guide you on this journey!
