Nobody tells you that postpartum recovery isn’t linear. That it isn’t quick. And that what you see online is almost never the full picture.
We sat down with Tamara Gerdis from Physio Down Under and she is here to bust every myth you’ve ever been told about bouncing back after a baby.
We talk about what’s actually happening in your body after birth, what recovery really looks like, what the red flags are that you shouldn’t ignore, and why the pressure to “get your body back” is one of the most damaging narratives in motherhood.
Spoiler alert! You didn’t lose your body. You grew a human in it. This is a must listen.

We are not tech people. We are not AI experts. We are two full time working mums who stumbled onto a few things that have genuinely changed how we manage our lives and we could not keep them to ourselves.

Quick heads up - this one gets spicy so pop your headphones in if little ears are around.
