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!

#55: Postpartum Rehab - Why No Mom Can Afford to Skip Putting in the Work to Properly Recover from Birth
We get asked all the time... "Do I really have to do this?" Meaning taking the time for intentional rehab postpartum, before returning to 'regular' exercise. No matter who you are, what you did or didn't do during pregnancy, and how much you know about what happened to your body during birth, no mom is exempt from the need to rebuild a solid foundation before returning to whatever you used to do.
It can be frustrating when you are not feeling like yourself and just want some normalcy, but progressing too quickly in an effort to "bounce back' will likely bite you in the ass long term. If you are an expecting mom, new mom, or have a friend that is running past your house at 4 weeks postpartum, this episode is a must listen!
If you are local and need help - schedule/request a PT Eval at Vivid HERE, or get on the waitlist for the January session of Diapers to Dumbbells HERE!
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!
