Summary

Hi friends! I'm so excited to have Sarah Merrill Hall on the show today! We're talking about navigating postpartum, including C-section recovery, postpartum fitness, breastfeeding, and more.

135: Navigating postpartum with Sarah Merrill Hall

Here's a bit more about Sarah:

Sarah grew an audience of over half a million Instagram followers by bringing humor and relatable content to everyday struggles. With a mission to help her followers embrace their imperfections, laugh through the hard times, and live their best kid lives, Sarah has turned Big Kid Problems into a relatable and infectious brand.

But her adulting content took a turn when Sarah became a new mom!

Enter the next era of Big Kid Problems: Bottle Service, a new kind of pregnancy and motherhood podcast. From recounting her ultimate C-section recovery guide to being open about her "failing" her breastfeeding journey, Bottle Service by Big Kid Problems is here to open up a new motherhood conversation.

You can check out her personal IG here, Big Kid Problems here, and listen to Bottle Service here. 

More resources from this episode:

I'm still obsessed with my sauna blanket (Memorial Day sale weekend of 5/26). This is one of my favorite ways to relax and sweat it out. I find that it energizes me, helps with aches and pains, I sleep better on the days I use this, and it makes my skin glow. Link to check it out here. You can also use my discount (FITNESSISTA15) for the PEMF Go Mat, which I use every day, and the red light face mask, which is a staple in my weekly skincare routine.

I've been loving Athletic Greens! This link gets you 5 free travel packs and a year's supply of Vitamin D3/K2.

If any of my fellow health professional friends are looking for another way to help their clients, I highly recommend IHP. You can also use this information to heal yourself and then go one to heal others, which I think is a beautiful mission. You can absolutely join if you don't currently work in the health or fitness industry; many IHPs don't begin on this path. They're friends who are passionate to learn more about health and wellness, and want to share this information with those they love. You can do this as a passion, or start an entirely new career.

You can use my referral link here and the code FITNESSISTA for up to $250 off the Integrative Health Practitioner program. I finished Level 1 and am working my way through Level 2. I highly recommend it! You can check out my review IHP here!

Get 15% off Organifi with the code FITNESSISTA. I drink the green juice, red juice, gold, and Harmony! (Each day I might have something different, or have two different things. Everything I've tried is amazing.)
