In this episode of ItMom, I sit down with Elena to talk honestly about what happens to your body and mind after becoming a mother. The truth no one really prepares you for is that you don’t get your old body back, but you do get the chance to build a new one.
Elena shares her journey navigating motherhood, mental health, and emotional regulation, and how movement and wellness became a form of support rather than punishment. We talk about working out for mental health, not aesthetics, using movement to regulate stress and anxiety, and releasing the pressure to “bounce back” to who you once were.
This conversation is about rebuilding with compassion, creating routines that support your nervous system, and redefining strength in a season where everything changes. If you’ve ever struggled to recognize yourself after motherhood or felt conflicted about fitness and body image, this episode is for you. ✨ Here, it’s all about you.
