What if the key to being a better mom isn't working harder,but taking care of yourself first?
Today, meet: Moriah from Mighty Mama Coaching in Canada, who works in personal training and health coaching specificallyfor moms. She went from feeling trapped at a desk to helping moms discover that their health isn't selfish, it's the foundation their whole family needs.
Moriah's journey is beautifully messy and real. She studiedgraphic design, felt like she was in prison sitting at a desk all day, and had the courage to completely pivot. Through life in England, Costa Rica, and raising a toddler, she discovered her true calling: reminding moms that their health is the heartbeat of their whole family.
Key Learnings
Your Health = Your Family's Foundation
She says: "Your health isn't just your own. It's the heartbeat of your whole family." When moms prioritize their health, it creates a ripple effect that benefits everyone. You're not being selfish, you're modeling healthy habits and showing up as your best self.
Make Fitness Fun, Not a Chore
Forget intimidating gym culture. When you enjoy something,you'll actually stick with it. Moriah brings joy and playfulness to fitness because sustainable change happens when it feels good.
Start Small, Build Momentum
Don't try to transform overnight. Even one or two workoutsper week is better than nothing. Small consistent actions build the momentum that creates lasting change.
Strength Training Is Non-Negotiable
Especially after having kids. Think about being able tocatch yourself if you slip on ice at 70, or getting up from the floor without help. It's about staying strong and independent as you age.
You Don't Need a Gym
You can build strength at home with bodyweight exercises orbasic weights. Your living room works just as well as any fancy gym.
Community Changes Everything
We weren't meant to do this alone. Having people whounderstand your journey makes all the difference, whether it's fitness, career changes, or motherhood.
Stop the Comparison Game (and important one for all of us)
Stop measuring yourself against people who are 20 stepsahead. The right people will be drawn to YOUR unique approach, not the shiny object everyone else is chasing.
Trust Your Body and Heart
If something doesn't feel aligned, your career, workout routine, or life choices, then trust that feeling. It's easier to make a change now than stay uncomfortable and miserable forever.
