Pregnancy and postpartum don’t just change a woman’s body they change her mind, her strength, and her sense of self. In this episode of For Mannerless Women, Adelle Onyango is joined by Winnie Okoth, elite CrossFit and Olympic weightlifting athlete and coach, for an honest conversation about postpartum realities we rarely prepare women for. Winnie shares her personal experience navigating: Postpartum panic attacks and mental health strugglesGrieving the body and strength she once hadTraining, coaching, and showing up while feeling disconnected from her bodyPostpartum injuries women are told are “normal” including pelvic pain, back pain, and core separationThe pressure to “bounce back” and how it quietly harms womenLearning to start again from ground zeroWhy breathwork is foundational for healing the nervous system, core, and pelvic floorThe power of community in postpartum recovery and motherhoodThis episode is for women who are pregnant, postpartum, supporting new mothers or unlearning the idea that healing should be rushed. You don’t bounce back. You build forward. 🔗 Listen, Watch & Connect Newsletter signup: www.legallycluelessafrica.com/Instagram: www.instagram.com/legallycluelessafrica/TikTok: www.tiktok.com/@legallycluelessafricaYouTube: www.youtube.com/c/LegallyCluelessYoutubeShare your story with us: forms.gle/kMn7Wae5N563JFGQ8
