How Kirsten Ferguson Let Go of Perfection in Motherhood

Project Swagger with Robin Arzón

Show Notes

For the second episode of our series, Motherhood: The Remix, I talk to a mom I deeply admire: Kirsten Ferguson. Kirsten is a Peloton instructor, single mama, and founder of the Ratchet Moms Club. She always wanted to be a mother, but after she had her two daughters, she realized something: she felt unfulfilled.

I love Kirsten’s honesty and vulnerability about her motherhood journey, and we get into all of it: from what she wishes she heard after her two miscarriages, to navigating feelings of guilt in motherhood, deciding to get a divorce during the pandemic, and finding freedom and control through fitness.
