The latest podcast episode is out and this one’s a really raw and real one!
I’m sharing my experience of trimester three of pregnancy – juggling teaching fitness classes, running my small business, working part-time in the family business… and just life in general.
I break it all down into sections: the physical side, the emotional side, the medical stuff, and the prep and lessons learned. I’m sharing what it’s actually like – the good, the surprising, and yes, even the weird moments – so whether you’re pregnant, thinking about getting pregnant, or just curious about my journey so far, this is for you.
Expect tales of:
- Feeling crazy strong kicks (sometimes at the worst possible moments)
- Discovering the joys of swelling ankles and expanding rib cages
- A few “what on earth is happening to my body?!” moments
- Keeping up with exercise, adapting workouts, and why strength training has been my absolute saviour during pregnancy
On the emotional side, I get honest about the nerves, the excitement, and the “how am I going to do all of this?!” moments – plus why a maternity photoshoot was honestly one of the best things I did for myself.
I also cover the practical side: RSV and whooping cough vaccines, extra midwife appointments, birth plans, nursery prep… and the surreal experience of a home visit. Haha!
Basically, this is me, weeks 28–38, keeping it real about pregnancy, fitness, work, life and all the little surprises along the way. If you want a peek behind the scenes of what it’s like balancing it all while getting ready to meet baby Bell, this episode is for you.
