From Punishment to Empowerment: My Exercise Story & 5 Movement Pillars for Moms

In this honest solo episode, I share my personal exercise story—from using movement as punishment to embracing it as empowerment—and introduce my 5 Movement Pillars for moms. These simple, practical truths will help you feel stronger, healthier, and more connected to your body in every season of motherhood.

You’ll hear about:

💛 Why strength training is a game-changer for moms’ health and energy

💛 How syncing movement with your cycle (or the moon) changes everything

💛 Why joyful, sustainable movement actually counts

💛 The importance of recovery and rest for real strength

💛 What it means to train for real life as a mom

Whether you’re looking for postpartum fitness support, mom workout motivation, or just a new perspective on exercise, this episode will help you reframe movement as medicine.

Tune in, and let’s rewrite our exercise story together. 🙌

About the Podcast

Wildly Well Mamas
Authentic Conversations & Soulful Support
This is a space for mindful mamas committed to living their best lives while raising kids to thrive. The ones setting boundaries, breaking generational patterns, making learning a lifestyle, and raising their kids with intention—even when it feels messy or misunderstood.


I’m Jamie—a mama, wellness coach, and cancer survivor—here to share what I’m learning and have the conversations I wish more moms were having. In each episode, you’ll hear either a journal-style solo from me or a raw, inspiring interview with another mom on the wellness train.


We’ll talk about supporting our bodies through movement, nourishment, rest, and rhythm; regulating our nervous systems, ditching diet culture, living cyclically, raising conscious kids, and coming home to ourselves—over and over again.
No shame. No shoulds. Just stories, insights, and reminders that you’re not doing this alone.


Because when moms feel grounded, inspired, and wildly well—everybody benefits. 🫶
