I've got another brilliant guest episode for you today. I'm joined by Shakira Akabusi, who is a pre and post-natal specialist, author and fitness expert on This Morning. She's also a mum of four with twins.  I was very excited to chat with Shakira and pick her brains on mum of 4 life and navigating twins. 

We dig into:

  • Navigating mum of four life and twins and what that can look like - the good and the bad!
  • Shakira's career and her passion for pre- and postnatal fitness to help mums feel fabulous after birth
  • The challenges mums face when it comes to finding the time to workout
  • C-section recovery and how to look after yourself after major abdominal surgery
  • Postnatal care and the level of support available to mums in the UK
  • Where should mums start when embarking on their fitness journey post-birth
  • The powerful effects of exercise to support maternal mental health
