This is the Pursuit of Wellness podcast and I'm your host, Mari Llewellyn.
Hi guys, welcome back to the Pursuit of Wellness podcast. It's Mari. I'm actually recording from home today. I'm in my bed. very chill, no cameras, just my laptop. So if you hear a difference in quality, that might be why. And that kind of intros just what I want to fill you guys in on today. I feel like we have a lot to catch up on. I haven't really spoken to you guys in a while. I miss this community so much. So I'm really excited to be here today and in a comfortable environment. So I'm currently 26 weeks pregnant as of today. He is the size of a spaghetti squash, which is one of Greg's favorites. So we were very excited about that this morning. I honestly feel so good. Like I have had a very pleasant pregnancy.
I feel him moving all day long now. I definitely feel big. Like I feel like in the last week, He kind of had a growth spurt and so did I. So I definitely feel like I'm bumping. It's so funny looking back on pictures of myself at the beginning when I thought I was bumping and I most definitely was not. But you know, it's such a fun journey. And honestly, one of the most beautiful spiritual connections I've ever felt in my life. Like this little human is living inside me and I just feel so connected to him and loved. just so appreciative of this experience that I'm having. And, you know, obviously I worked so hard to get here and it took so long that I just can't believe it. And I'm so grateful for it.
We were in Colorado in Aspen for a whole month and that was amazing. I was hiking every single day. The altitude was a little tough. Like I definitely couldn't breathe. Trying to keep up with Greg on the hikes was so hard. But I... had the best time, the weather was perfect, so much nature, so much outdoor time. And I just felt very at peace there. And it was so fun to see friends and go into town and just have like a really wholesome summer experience. So it was lovely. And I'm back in Austin now. It's so hot. It is 100 degrees. And I've been really delving into nesting, getting the nursery set up, probably to a weird degree, like ordering my diapers, the gliders in, the crib is in, the rug is in. So I am definitely nesting.
I'm like obsessing about everything in the house, making sure it's perfect. I've also been doing hypnobirthing classes, pelvic floor therapy, kind of going on deep dives with formula and breastfeeding and learning as much as i can i'm very hopeful that i can breastfeed successfully but i want to have a formula as a backup so really just absorbing so much information when it comes to my career this is i mean you guys know how it's weird like i feel like i'm only 31 years old and have just had such a crazy career. I've gotten to do so much. My life has been so crazy since 2017 and I feel very grateful to have had that period of time where I was really hustling and doing everything 110% and really like putting aside my personal needs and socializing and all of that just to focus on my business.
And I probably wouldn't be able to take a step back if I hadn't done that. And now I'm definitely in a place where, you know, obviously I'm still involved with Bloom. I'm on the creative call every single week. I stop by the office. The vision's definitely still so important to me, but I'm not in the day-to-day. And Greg is the CEO, and I'm so grateful to have a partner who loves what he does. And... In terms of the podcast, I actually have already recorded this episode once before. And it was a goodbye for now episode because I thought that maybe I should just pause the show until I was done having the baby. And reason being... It might be difficult to explain, but the reason I do this show is because of impact.
I care about getting information out there. I love learning. I want to get information out there for free for people. I feel privileged to have access to experts and information and I love sharing it with you guys and I love interviewing. And yeah, it's a very much an impact driven show.
