Fit Mother Project PodcastAuthor: Fit Mother Project
It is no secret that Mothers are truly the unsung heroes of todays families. The amount of work, errands, tasks, and support mothers do day in and day out is never-ending. Its keeping the household and family running. Its planning birthday parties and family activities. Its running to the grocery store while waiting to pick up the dry cleaning. Its making sure the kids and spouse have everything they need often putting themselves and their health last. It can feel like an Invisible Burden... an evergrowing weight carried on the shoulders of many moms. And our society expects mothers to carry this load without question. What happens when we carry additional weight? Our bodies are stressed and challenged in a magnitude of ways that can lead to stress, poor health. The Invisible Burden can lead to weight gain, constant low energy, hormone imbalance. It can lead to being stretched beyond reach. Whats worse is that hardworking mothers like you bearing this burden, are often not seen or acknowledged for carrying the contributions and the acts of the family. If youre a stay-at-home mom, society often expects you to carry the invisible burden without question. If youre a working mom, youre also expected to carry the invisible burden just as much while working to provide an income to your family. You have so many important things pulling you in different directions that it often means you put yourself and your health last. Im Dr. Anthony Balduzzi, Founder, and CEO of the Fit Mother Project and the host of this podcast and I get all of this. Growing up my dad died when I was 9 years old and my mom became a widow with two young boys and she had to fight to raise us and keep our family together. I started the Fit Mother Project and created this podcast with the sole purpose of helping create stronger and more powerful mothers through losing weight without restrictive diets, crazy workouts, or the image of being perfect.
