Ever been slammed by anxiety out of nowhere? Like you’re just living your life—maybe in line at the grocery store or answering an email—and then boom, your heart starts racing, your breath gets shallow, and your mind spirals into a thousand “what ifs”? Yeah, I’ve been there. And let me tell you—it’s not just uncomfortable,…
Ever found yourself zoning out mid-conversation, heart racing, replaying what you should’ve said—or dreading what’s coming next? Yeah, me too.

But learning how to stay present when anxiety hits? Game-changer. Here’s how…
When I had my second baby, I knew my core wasn’t the same — not just how it looked, but how it functioned. I’d try to sit up, lift groceries, even get out of bed, and my lower back would scream at me. Turns out, I had something called diastasis recti. And like so many…
