Comment PUSHPREP for the free birth prep workshop Comment PUSHPREP for the free birth prep workshop + a list of questions for your care provider 💛

I’m writing this from Ireland after finishing an intensive Belle Method teacher training, and one theme kept coming up in conversations with the incredible midwives, doulas, and movement professionals in the room:

We simply do not have enough people entering birth feeling truly prepared.

The stories they hear every day reminded me why I created Push Prep in the first place. We can do better. Better education. Better preparation. Better support. Because when women understand their options, know how to work with their bodies, and feel empowered going into labour, we have the potential to reduce fear, trauma, and unnecessary interventions.

This carousel is filled with testimonials from women who have experienced many different kinds of births. There is no one “perfect” birth story—but preparation matters.

Our next live online 8 week Push Prep series begins Tuesday, July 7 at 8 PM ET. Recordings are included, so you can join from any time zone or location in the world.

You deserve to head into birth feeling informed, supported, and ready. 🤍

If you feel called to something, don’t talk yourse If you feel called to something, don’t talk yourself out of it.

You don’t need everyone to understand your path. You just need to keep taking the next step.

Yes, yes you can. ✨ Cheering you on. Go get it!

COMMENT PLAN and I'll send you my free postnatal r COMMENT PLAN and I'll send you my free postnatal recovery plan, including 5 core and pelvic floor follow along workouts plus a postnatal workshop. ✨

One of the biggest myths about diastasis recti is that if you didn't address it in early postpartum, you've missed your chance.

Not true.
Your body is always adapting.

Whether your baby is 6 months old, 6 years old, or 16 years old, it's possible to improve core function, rebuild strength, and create better tension through the abdominal wall.

The goal is a core that feels stronger, more supportive, and works better in everyday life. The goal is confidence 🔥

Save this exercise and comment PLAN below for your free recovery resources.

The next live online class session of Core Restore starts July 7! 
Join from anywhere, get support and accountability. 
Try it for a week for $1. And read the testimonials in the story highlights ✨

One of the biggest things we've gotten wrong about One of the biggest things we've gotten wrong about birth? How we teach women to push. 

❌"Push like you're pooping"
❌"Tuck your chin, hold your breath, and count to 10" 
❌"Curl up as hard as you can and look at your belly" 

Your pelvic floor isn't a door you force open. It's a group of muscles that need to lengthen, soften, and coordinate with your breath to create space for your baby.

We need to learn how to use our diaphragm. To open to door. To yield. 

Nobody taught me this when I was pregnant.

In fact, most women are never taught how their pelvic floor works, how to coordinate it with their breath, or how to prepare it for one of the biggest athletic events of their lives.
So we end up heading into labour hoping for the best.
I don't want that for you.
That's why I created a free prenatal workshop where I'll teach you:
✨ How to prepare your pelvic floor for birth
✨ Why "pushing harder" isn't always the answer
✨ Breathing strategies to support labour and delivery
✨ Practical tools you can start using right away

Even if you never become my Push Prep student, you'll walk away with knowledge and techniques that can help support your best possible birth experience.

Because every woman deserves access to this information before labour begins.

Here's to saving the pelvic floors, one mom at a time. 💛

Comment PUSH PREP and I'll send you the free workshop.

Love 
Nikki
