In today’s episode, I’m sharing a powerful conversation with my sweet client and friend, Jackie—who has been a part of the Chaselynn Fitness community for the past four months. She’s currently six months pregnant, and her story is one of resilience, mindset shifts, and learning how to give herself grace while still showing up with intention.
Jackie opens up about what it looked like to transition from a high-performance lifestyle—think scuba diving, jumping out of planes, and intense gym sessions—to honoring her body through pregnancy. She talks about overcoming an eating disorder, leaving corporate life, and how fitness became less about “getting back to her old body” and more about showing up for her future self (and baby girl).
We also talk through how she used our 21-Day Fitness Program as a stepping stone into sustainable coaching, how her mindset shifted during the roughest parts of her first trimester, and how she continues to lead with intention—even on the days that don’t go perfectly.
If you’re a mom-to-be, a high-achieving woman who struggles with perfectionism, or you’ve ever felt like your body isn’t doing what it used to, this episode will speak straight to your heart.
We cover:
- Navigating fitness through pregnancy with grace
- Why perfectionism can block progress—and how to release it
- Building sustainable habits instead of chasing extremes
- Community, accountability, and choosing to lead—even in hard seasons
