Guest: Val Warner, Board-Certified Sports Dietitian & Postpartum Fitness Specialist
If you’ve ever looked down and wondered “Why does my belly still feel weak-even years after having kids?”... you’re not alone. In this episode, I’m joined by Val Warner to talk about something every mom needs but no one really teaches us: how to truly rebuild your core after pregnancy.
We’re not talking crunches and six-pack abs here-we’re talking about the deep core, what it actually does, and why it's the secret to strength, confidence, and feeling like yourself again.
Whether you’re newly postpartum or had your last baby five years ago, Val breaks down exactly what’s going on with your core, how to know if you’re doing the right exercises, and the common mistakes keeping moms stuck in a cycle of frustration.
 In this episode, we cover:
<ul>
<li>
The difference between your deep core and visible abs (and why this matters)
</li>
<li>
Why bracing your core is a game-changer—and how to do it right
</li>
<li>
Simple, time-saving core exercises busy moms can add to any workout
</li>
</ul>
Whether you’ve heard terms like diastasis recti, core bracing, or pelvic floor and felt overwhelmed... this episode makes it simple, actionable, and encouraging.
