MOM STRENGTH

Mom Strength is a podcast hosted by Surabhi Veitch, The Passionate Physio. Surabhi is an Orthopaedic and Pelvic Physiotherapist, Pregnancy & Postpartum Fitness Coach, mentor and mom with a mission to simplify motherhood through discussions on pelvic health, fitness, and realistic self-care.

Episodes drop every 1-2 weeks, and offer a combination of solo episodes, and guest interviews with experts on pelvic health, movement, mindset, parenting, nutrition, mental health, diversity and all the wonderful things that impact our motherhood experience.

We have real, honest conversations where we raise the bar and challenge the status quo on what it means to be a mother. We also aim to empower, uplift and elevate marginalized voices, including those of Black, Brown, Indigenous, and racialized Peoples of Colour.
