Welcome to Pints & Pelvic Floors: The Podcast. In Episode 42 I got to chat with Sam Stuart about the ins and outs of what makes personal training with Braving Wellness different.

What you’ll hear in this episode:

• Sam’s desire to combine embodied movement & trauma-informed personal training with a focus on prenatal & postnatal workouts
• The importance of building community through group fitness classes
• Who Sam’s ideal client is (spoiler alert: consent and choice are key!)
• How Sam adapts when her clients arrive dysregulated and how she can help them navigate the workout their body needs
• That said, she also dispels the belief that taking a trauma-informed approach does not mean you won’t make gains in your workouts
• The importance of recognizing when a routine or exercise plan isn’t serving you and being ready to make a change
• Identifying with trauma is not a requirement for working with Sam
• Sam’s intentionality in checking her biases and privileges before starting to work with her clients
