052: If you've ever felt the drive to change or prepare your body for pregnancy, birth, or motherhood, this one is for you. Dr. Brittney brought on her coach, Conor Millstein, to talk about the curious threads between pain-free movement, optimization of your body, identity shifts, and the evolutionary human desires to look fit, reproduce, give birth, and be active for life. Grab your headphones, put on your shoes, and get outside to walk and listen for some major inspiration and recalibration - from a body, mind, and soul perspective.

Feeling the Pulse On

• How Conor sees birth and reproduction
• Having goals or intentions and the mindset to have around them, learning to fail well
• Why is recalibration important: “Staying ready instead of getting ready” to take on the stresses we need to take on
• Aesthetics, superficial (outside) outcomes of the work, and identity changes
• Working with women, birth, postpartum, pain and trauma
• Blending systems together into “body economics” for a goal of self-love
• “Essentials” of Conor’s work: pressure, tension, and orientation and how that applies in pregnancy and general athleticism
• “Dogmas” and pet peeves in movement and training that lead to an unlearning process
• The common thread between Conor’s work and Brittney’s work
• Encouraging words if you’re curious about working with Conor
