So many high-achieving moms struggle with the same challenge – including me! We want to prioritize health without sacrificing precious family time.

Rachel shares practical advice for moms who want to get stronger and feel better without spending hours at the gym.

Selected Quotable Moments"I think that a really great way to have fantastic fitness - whether you need weight loss, you're wanting to get strong, or your wish to be more functional as you age - is to really start small and be really strategic with what you choose to implement.”
"The mindset shift that I take is making sure that what we say aligns with what our schedule goes to."
"All exercise is, is communicating what sort of adaptation you want your body to develop. Strength training signals to your body that we need bigger muscles to move this load next time."
