EP71 - Back in the Office — A Year That Changed Everything
After nearly a year away from the podcast, I’m back with a deeply personal update on life, work, and the lessons I’ve learned since becoming a mom. From a pregnancy that was “uncomplicated” on paper but incredibly challenging in reality, to navigating anxiety, finding the right therapeutic support, and spending a year unplugged to focus on my son—this episode is an honest look at a season of massive change. I also share why I’m excited to get back to work, how this year has reshaped my perspective, and what you can expect from the podcast moving forward (spoiler: pregnancy and postpartum will be one topic among many, alongside strength training, recovery, and science-backed strategies to stay fit for life). What You’ll Hear in This Episode: Picking up from my last pregnancy training update Why I had to strip my life back to the essentials The physical and mental realities of my pregnancy How anxiety showed up and what getting help looked like in Iceland What it’s like when everything changes—but also stays the same Why I unplugged from social media for almost a year Stepping back into work and finding a new sense of purpose Reassurance for long-time listeners on the mix of future topics Links & Resources: 👉 Take the podcast listener survey: 📸 Follow me on Instagram: 🌐 Learn more or work with me: If you enjoy the show, please rate, review, and share it with a friend—it helps more people find Building Thriving Lifestyles.
