Shh...I'm going to let you in on a little secret
Returning to run can be super easy if you have a good plan; but it can be incredibly challenging too. Between feedings, lack of sleep & just plain life, it can be hard to figure out where to start..& keep going! Throw in some new sensations in your lady parts & abs that have gone MIA, getting back to running is like a blind date; you're happy to be out there but don't know what you're in for!
This course will take you step-by-step implementing your plan that works for YOU! You'll go from feeling confused & anxious about the right way to return to run, to feeling strong & prepared! You'll experience confidence knowing you're rebuilding a smart, sustainable foundation to run in the years to come!
My pelvic floor issues are under control & I know what I need to do to stay well going forward. I have recommended Dr. Carrie to many of my mom friends & encourage post-partum moms to connect as well!
- CB
I have strengthened my musculature substantially I'm ready to keep going on my own! I am hopeful & feel greater confidence in regaining my abilities. Throughout, Dr. Carrie has been a great coach & has been so wonderful in making it easy to relax, feel respected & cared for during the process!
- TS
Dr. Carrie encouraged me to exercise, but never made me feel guilty when I hadn't been consistent. I have progressed so well & I am very grateful for her! This was a game-changer for my family & my quality of life!

What’s Inside The Real Moms' Guide to Postpartum Return to Run
Module 1
Notice
We can't change what we don't notice. This is where we lay it all out, find where we need help & make a plan that sets us up to succeed. Whether it's working around feeding schedules, managing pelvic floor symptoms or setting up childcare in advance, having a concrete plan (with backup plans) will ensure you will return to running the way you had envisioned!
Module Highlights:
We get honest here about where you are physically, mentally & what resources you need lined up before you get started:
- 10 Step Return to Run Readiness Physical Screen
- Red & Yellow Flag Warning Signs for Pelvic Floor, Abs & Pelvis
- Set Your Goals & What Do You Need to Make It Happen
Module 2
Set Your Plan
A goal without a plan is just a wish! You'll use information from Module 1 to make your plan that is realistic for YOUR body, the time & resources YOU have & what YOU want to accomplish. Your plan will be concise (no CVS receipt length list of exercises here!) & easy to accomplish with the time that you have. Forget the mom guilt!
Module Highlights:
You will set your starting point for:
- Your Specific Training Plan Keeping You Consistent, Symptom & Injury-Free
- Your Individual Core Strength Exercises Specifically for Running
- Run/Walk Training Program That Meets Your Time/Ability Needs
Module 3
Reality Check-In
Let's be honest...sometimes it feels like the entire world is trying to keep you from your run & workout! Action without reflection leads to burn-out...& mommy guilt! This is where we get smart & make sure that you keep going. What's working? What's not? Time to tweak the plan for reality!
Module Highlights:
Once the hype & endorphins of the first few weeks are over, we need to amp up the good stuff & figure out where we need more help:
- Body Check-in (Any aches, pains, injuries, pelvic floor symptoms)
- Logistics Check-in (schedule changes, childcare/work)
- How to keep going during holidays/vacations & unplanned hiccups (illness, sleep regression, etc.)
Module 4
Re-Group, Re-Focus, Re-Commit
Life happens. We fall behind, get caught up & we lose focus. Fear of not knowing where or how to start again can keep you from actually getting back on track. With running, picking up where you left off a few weeks or months ago might mean a sudden injury or symptom; leaving you lost, confused & unsure what to do.
Module Highlights:
It's not about how we fell off from running & working out, it's about how we start again! (You'll get better at starting over each & every time...cause it WILL happen!)
- How to Get Back When Life Changes
- Re-Starting Workouts Without Getting Injured
- Re-Committing to Your Refreshed Plan
Module 5
Consistency & Progression
When is it ok to start training like you used to? Whether this is your first postpartum return to run or it didn't go well when you tried it before, there's always a little voice in the back of your head wondering when you'll "feel normal" again: Is it safe to push harder? Will I mess something up? Everything is going so well & how do I make sure I don't lose that?
Module Highlights:
Be confident in knowing when you can do more, when you should hold back & when can you stop worrying if you'll have pelvic floor symptoms or risk injury.
- Progress Your Training Runs in a Smart Way, Reducing Your Chances of Injury or Symptoms
- Progress Your Strength Program to Focus on Where You Need the Most Work
- Refresh Logistics to Match Your Progressing Training Program & Meet Your Goals
Module 6
Reflect, Celebrate & What's Next?
You did it! You took the time to establish the habits, change the things that needed changing & you met your goal. Time to celebrate...but now what?
Module Highlights:
It's time to re-assess, high-five the wins, but also double-down on where you need to keep working to make sure you don't slide backwards! There's no better time to set the next goal as when you finish the last!
- Post-Body Screen: See How Far You've Come (& Focus On What You Still Need to Do)

I can’t wait for you to join The Real Moms' Guide to Postpartum Return to Run
As a life-long runner & a Women's Health Physical Therapist for years, I had a hard time finding guidance on what I needed to do to get back to running safely after having my son. All I could find were long lists of exercises & Couch to 5k programs that weren't going to work with my schedule as a new mom. Everything I knew about getting back to running failed to take into consideration my new normal of sleep loss, my job as a milk machine & making up for the strength I lost during pregnancy.
This program was created so you don't have to struggle make a plan & find solid resources like I did. If you're ready to get back to running in a smart way that is realistic for moms (without the guilt trip), you're in the right place.
If you've done the work, have your plan to show for it but not the results after 14 days; your money back, no questions asked.
Grab your running shoes. The time is now.
