Healing After Twins, Honoring Your Body, and Redefining Motherhood with Kristin McGee
If you’ve ever whispered “my body is not my own” after motherhood—or stared at your postpartum belly wondering what happened to your core—this one’s for you.
In this week’s episode, I’m joined by twin mama, yoga and Pilates instructor, and all-around calming presence Kristin McGee. We talk about everything from healing diastasis recti (yep, that dreaded core separation) to parenting solo, starting over after divorce, and how to actually make time for yourself when everything feels like “too much.”
We get into:
Becoming a mom later in life and navigating IVF, pregnancy in your 40s, and the “geriatric” label 🙄
The honest truth about twin birth (Kristin went to 39.5 weeks!) and recovering from both vaginal birth and a C-section
Why pelvic floor therapy should be standard postpartum care
Tips for managing life as a single parent (and finding a new path after a dream job ends)
Her new book Somatic Exercises for Dummies—and how reconnecting with your body is emotional and physical
Breathwork and tiny rituals that actually help in moments of mom-overwhelm
Kristin is the real deal—so grounded, so generous, and deeply honest about the beauty and the burnout that comes with this season of life. Whether you’re healing your core, healing your heart, or just figuring out how to hold everything you're carrying, this episode is like a deep exhale.
