You’re not broken. You’re pulled back—on purpose.
Postpartum isn’t a setback. It’s a set-up for the rest of your motherhood. But only if you give yourself what culture never will: permission to pause with purpose. The Slingshot is a 6-module postnatal experience for the mom who wants more than recovery. You want to rebuild your body, reconnect to your values, and lay the foundation for a motherhood that actually fits you. This is not another bounce-back plan. This is your slow, strong slingshot forward.
This is for you if:
✔ You’re 6 hours, 6 weeks, 6 months, or even 2 years postpartum ✔ You feel the tug to move forward—but not in the way everyone expects ✔ You’re not content to “wait it out” anymore ✔ You want clarity, community, and something that feels like you again ✔ You’re ready to rebuild from the inside out This is not for you if: ✘ You’re just looking for a workout plan ✘ You’re cool with “bouncing back” into old patterns ✘ You’re not interested in emotional, physical, or identity-level healing
