Last week, I held a small private virtual chat where I had the chance to hear from other women and  the struggles and challenges that we are facing with motherhood and achieving optimum health & wellness. We spoke about our bodies, the amazing gift that they are, but also the difficulties that they have been through and/or may still be going through.

One of the common threads on why exercise falls by the way side, is that mothers tend to put themselves last, and at the end of the never ending laundry to do list. But why is that when we need to be as healthy as possible in order to deliver our best to our families? And why is that, when we know that by taking care of ourselves first, we have more to give?
