Whether you’ve never exercised before or were running marathons prior to pregnancy, today’s guest is here to share how you can use movement to support your sleep, mood, and overall well-being—on your own terms, and in your own (sometimes non-linear) way. In this episode of Momcozy Village: Together We Grow , host Lalaina Rabary sits down with Rosie Stockley, founder of MAMAWELL, an online fitness platform that offers resources to women through pregnancy, postpartum, and beyond. Together, Lalaina and Rosie unpack the myth of bouncing back to your pre-baby body. Rosie believes that this term is unhelpful to moms, as it denies the reality of the huge physical and emotional changes that happen during pregnancy and birth. She also explains how recovery and fitness can look very different from one mom to another. There are many variables—including birth type, physical characteristics, and other health or lifestyle factors—that influence how quickly or slowly realistic fitness goals can be achieved. One thing Rosie emphasizes is the power of starting small: pelvic floor exercises and walking are great places to begin if you’re able. Ultimately, the name of the game is slow, incremental progress—and a non-judgmental mindset. That last part is key. There will be days when you’re exhausted or facing higher demands and just can’t get a workout in. It’s all about giving yourself grace and trying another day.
