In this episode Hennie Ng—specialist in resolving chronic pain and postpartum core & pelvic health—shares practical, compassionate strategies to help moms feel empowered, energized, and back in control of their bodies after birth. We unpack what “back in control” really means (shifting mindset from perfection to progress), how hormonal shifts, sleep loss, and healing affect energy, and simple, realistic steps to restore vitality without pressure or comparison. Hennie explains the complementary roles of movement, nourishment, and rest in rebuilding strength and confidence, offers actionable daily habits for physical and emotional support, and gives specific tips for reconnecting with your body even if your birth didn’t go as planned.
