Hey Mama,

If you’ve ever felt like stress is just part of the job as a mom — or wondered what your body really needs during pregnancy — this episode is for you.

I sat down with two incredible chiropractors, Dr. Tim Peterson and Dr. McKenzie Slattery, from Peterson Chiropractic in San Antonio. 

Dr. Tim shares how chronic stress affects the nervous system (and what you can do about it), while Dr. McKenzie dives into how a mom’s body changes during pregnancy — and why alignment matters more than we think for both comfort and birth prep.

Whether you're pregnant, postpartum, or just trying to make it through your day with more energy and less pain, this conversation is full of encouragement and practical support.

We talk about: ✔️ The subtle ways stress shows up in the body ✔️ How chiropractic care supports pregnancy and birth ✔️ What gentle, non-invasive chiropractic care really looks like ✔️ Why caring for yourself as a mom helps your whole family thrive

I loved this conversation, and I know you will too.

👉 If you’re in the San Antonio area, check out Peterson Chiropractic to learn more about the care they offer.
