027_Prepping your pelvic floor for birth with PT Cassie Dionne

I’m your host, Dr. Emma Nagy (PhD), and this is the My Lighter Way Podcast for pregnant Moms.

I’ll help you mentally and emotionally prepare for the best birth, postpartum, and motherhood experiences possible —so you can experience a more peaceful pregnancy, positive birth, healthy & connected postpartum, and enjoy motherhood from the start.

Pregnancy is the perfect time to prepare.

Most pregnancy education focuses on preparing for your baby. Here, we'll prepare you - the Mama.

Each week, I'll share mindset shifts, beliefs, real stories, evidence-based mental health tools, and practical strategies to help you feel less anxious, calmer and more confident as you become a Mom.

This isn’t your typical motherhood education podcast. 

I’ll teach you the science-backed strategies to prepare for postpartum for better health and wellbeing I’ve learned over 15+ years as a mental health expert, and also the powerful principles I’ve applied myself when it comes to mindset, personal growth, and spirituality to help make motherhood lighter.

Whether you're preparing for your first baby or preparing for postpartum again, planning a natural or unmedicated birth, hoping to protect your mental health before postpartum, or simply wanting to enjoy motherhood and your life around it - you’re in the perfect place!
