Newborth life & the 4th Trimester with Jen Butler
03/23/21 • 30 min
There is a wealth of information available to prepare mums to be for their pregnancy and birthing experience. Unfortunately, many mums find themselves unprepared and uncertain in the time that follows.
My Special Guest today is the lovely Jen Butler host of The Early Parenting Podcast. She is a midwife, maternal child health nurse, sleep consultant, lactation consultant, and soon to be mum of three. I ask Jen to share her top tips for life with a newborn. Jen talks about preparing for new motherhood, setting up support structures with your tribe, and knowing when to ask for help. We talk about the uncertainty of this time and the mindsets that might lead you astray.
Sit back, unwind, and slow down as you listen to this episode.

Pregnancy, Motherhood, Periods and Moons with Ilana Kosakiewicz
I have a super interesting discussion for you today as I talk about all things energy with Ilana Kosakiewicz, one of Australia's leading kinesiologists, energy coaches and yoga and meditation teachers. I’ll be bold enough to say that it’s an episode that every woman should listen to.
We barely scratch the surface in this episode as Ilana shares about what kinesiology is and how, through muscle testing, it shifts energy in the body, restoring it back to balance. Ilana talks about the connection between the moon and a woman’s cycle and how we need to listen to our biological clocks instead of trying to keep up with the 24 hour clock we’re accustomed to. Ilana shares some great practical tips for how to get the best out of your day, depending on where you’re at in your cycle.
I must confess I was a bit hesitant going into this conversation because I know nothing about kinesiology and thought it might be a bit woo woo for me! But I can assure you, Ilana’s knowledge and experience will inspire you and equip you with practical ways to live life more energised and more connected to your body, no matter what phase of life you’re in.
Whether you’re 6 weeks postnatal with a toddler running around or trying to conceive, this episode is for you.

Pelvic Floor: What Every Woman Needs to Know
In an ideal world, we’d all learn about pelvic floor health in Highschool and be fully equipped to care for our pelvic floor muscles. Unfortunately, this isn’t the case, so in today’s episode we delve into pelvic floor health, answering questions I believe all women should know.
What are the pelvic floor muscles?
Why do I need to know about them?
What do pelvic floor problems look like?
When should I get help with my pelvic floor muscles?
How do I best look after my pelvic floor muscles?
This is generalized information and can’t replace personalized professional care, but I do hope it empowers you to take control of your pelvic floor health. In addition, I will run through a few exercises you can perform to begin strengthening your pelvic floor muscles.
