It's crazy how fixated i could be on the soft belly pooch...
β¦when I'm being given the opportunity to grow my capacity to do amazing things.
Carrying both my babies up a mountain. Squatting in the gym. Playing my favorite sport. Completely feeling myself at events.
Letting the pooch be the focus leads me into making incorrect choices... but building my capacity and capability, whoa buddy, the game completely changes. You lead with an idea of investment vs drainage.
And here's the thing nobody tells you β when you shift the focus from how you look to what you can actually do, something wild happens. The capacity shows up. The strength shows up. The energy shows up.
And it begins to STACK!
Even on the days I'm running on broken sleep, caffeine and pure love for these kids β I still get to show up for the things that matter. I still get to carry them. Move with them. Feel like the mom and me im building to be.
The aesthetics? It came and is still coming. Not from obsession β from consistency & accumulation of steps in the right direction.
It comes from fueling right, from training smart, from treating my body like something worth taking care of instead of something to shrink.
Seven months postpartum. Two kids. And honestly? I'm just getting started. I can't wait to see what this body becomes capable of next. π₯
If you're in the thick of it right now β the pooch, the exhaustion, the wondering if you'll ever feel anything like a human again β I want you to hear this:
You are not behind. You are building.
And the version of you that invests in her body, her strength, her capacity β she gets to carry her kids up mountains too. She gets to feel this. It is available to you.
Start with what you can do today.
That's enough. It compounds. π
Seven months postpartum. Still going. Follow along if you'd like to grow with me. π«Άπ»
