Welcome to The Tara Talk, your go-to podcast for all things mindset + movement! Today Tara connects with Ashley Nowe to discuss proper core engagement, strength training as a mother, and how things change during pregnancy and postpartum. After birthing three children, (including a giant set of twins), mom of four and stepmom of two Ashley Nowe didn’t recognize her own body. A lifelong athlete and fitness enthusiast, she was determined to find a way to heal her severe diastasis recti — postpartum ab separation — and love her body again. Through correcting her breathing and engaging in intentional pelvic floor and deep core work, she found herself again, and healed her broken body. Her journey inspired her to do the same for other moms and Get Mom Strong was born. Get Mom Strong is home to Ashley’s Strong Like a Mother (SLAM) at-home workout program and app. Today, Ashley’s helped over 70,000 women see results with SLAM and shares her story with over 400K+ followers on instagram.
