Moms In Motion
Welcome to the Moms In Motion podcast! Your hosts are Krista Williams (pregnancy & postpartum athleticism coach) and Jenn Perna (pelvic floor physical therapist). We are running our businesses, running our households, and trying not to run ourselves into the ground while juggling it all. We are here to support you through all stages of motherhood with honest, relatable, and sometimes unfiltered conversations.
Tune into this show weekly so we can help you build your village, reconnect with your mom bod, and possibly even navigate business ownership and motherhood, better.
We are located in the suburbs of Philadelphia, and refer to each other constantly to best support moms in the area. We believe the relationship between a personal trainer specializing in working with moms, and pelvic floor PT is an absolute must for moms to thrive in motherhood. Please remember that this show is not meant to treat or diagnose any medical condition, so don't ever hesitate to contact your own provider team with any concerns.
Thanks for joining us, and please reach out with feedback or questions!

#34: Returning to Running Postpartum - Why There’s Way More to it than ‘Getting Cleared’
When you’ve had a baby and you are getting ready to return to some movement postpartum, your first effort should NOT be running. We totally understand that it can be quick/easy (esp if you are used to long distances), convenient, and free, but there are so many boxes you need to check before you give running a shot. This doesn’t just apply to running either, the guidelines are the same for any higher impact movement.
If you a runner, cross fitter, or just enjoy your kickboxing or Orange Theory classes, this episode is a must listen! If you know someone who is a dedicated runner or high impact fitness person, send them this episode and help save them from themselves!
We will have 3 different types of episodes and one will drop each week on Mondays!
- Movement and education
- Mom life struggles and experiences
- Business ownership
Take us for a walk, listen while you tackle some chores, or let us join you as you hustle your crew around town! Be sure to follow this podcast, share it with some mom friends, and let us know what you want to hear us chat about by connecting with us!
