In this inspiring follow-up episode, Ashley reconnects with Sarah Maurer, a former client and past podcast guest, to explore life after recovery and motherhood. Sarah shares her incredible journey of recovering from hypothalamic amenorrhea, conceiving naturally, and how her recovery prepared her for both pregnancy and the postpartum experience.
Together, they discuss how embracing recovery helped Sarah surrender to the needs of her body during pregnancy—resting more, honoring cravings, and focusing on nourishment. Postpartum, Sarah reflects on navigating the pressures of "bounce-back culture" while staying true to her values and prioritizing what her body and baby truly need.
Sarah also opens up about how healing her relationship with food, her body, and herself has transformed her life. Recovery didn’t just help her physically; it allowed her to become the present, joyful, and flexible mom she always wanted to be. Her story is a testament to the freedom and fulfillment that comes from doing the hard work of recovery.
This episode is packed with encouragement for anyone navigating recovery or new motherhood—don’t miss it!
