Hey momma, are you exhausted from putting your daily aches and pins aside to care for everyone else? Do you struggle to make time for regular physical therapy, chiropractic or massage appointments for yourself? I’ve been there.
Hi. I’m Amanda, a mom of three littles and a working physical therapist. I had my first baby during the last year of graduate school. I was new to motherhood and overwhelmed with my career journey. I remember being on the bed with my laptop while nursing a baby, juggling it all at once. I remember crying from mental exhaustion heightened by physical neck, shoulder and back pain. But I endlessly rocked my velcro baby anyway. It was lonely. It was uncomfortable. I needed to manage my pain but had no time to spare for MY OWN NEEDS.
When my second child came, I had a toddler and a career to juggle. Still just as busy but a little bit wiser. This time I focused on MY body mechanics in all the things. The physical aches decreased with simple shifts to my positioning during nursing, cleaning, work and play.
I can’t be the only one with aches and pains in motherhood. So here I am, live in your earbuds with all my recommendations and none of the timely appointments. In this podcast, I use my professional education, real patient experiences and personal mom journey to help you take care of yourself. I focus on body mechanics, ergonomics and easy do-anywhere exercises to fix common pain points for working moms. Grab all the pillows, let’s get comfy and love those babies with more joy and less pain.

63. New Year Clear Focus: Planning Your Life to Protect Your Peace (and Your Body)
When everything feels urgent, moms rush — and rushing leads to stress, frustration, burnout, and breakdowns in both emotional and physical form.
In this New Year episode, Amanda shares why clear priorities are essential for moms and how intentional planning supports better movement, calmer nervous systems, and stronger family connection. This episode isn’t about rigid schedules or unrealistic goals — it’s about creating direction so your life stops feeling constantly urgent.
You’ll learn how Amanda plans her year, month, week, and day to protect her peace, make time for workouts, and support her body in the life she lives. She also walks through her annual life inventory, choosing a word of the year, and how regular check-ins help moms care for themselves while caring for everyone else.
This episode is perfect for moms who want less chaos, more clarity, and a calmer, more confident start to the year.
