This week on The Female Blueprint Podcast, Dr. Courtney sits down with Desiree Pfeifer (aka Desb) — mom of 3, coach, and online fitness powerhouse.

Des gets real about her journey from bodybuilding to motherhood, navigating postpartum anxiety, and what it really means to put yourself first.

From bouncing back (or rather, bouncing forward) to redefining self-care and breaking free from perfectionism, her story is raw, relatable, and packed with wisdom every woman needs to hear.

Here’s what you’ll hear in this episode:
→ Des’s journey from athlete + influencer to mom of 3
→ Why “bounce back culture” is toxic (and what to focus on instead)
→ How postpartum anxiety + depression reshaped her outlook
→ The “First Things First: I’m First” mantra that changed her life
→ Why motherhood doesn’t have to equal constant stress
→ Practical tips for fitness, mindset, and putting yourself first (without guilt)


If you’ve ever felt stuck in the grind of motherhood, this conversation will remind you that you can thrive and that putting yourself first is the opposite of selfish.
