podcast January 29, 2026


Background

Pregnancy and postpartum don’t just change a woman’s body they change her mind, her strength, and her sense of self. In this episode of For Mannerless Women, Adelle Onyango is joined by Winnie Okoth, elite CrossFit and Olympic weightlifting athlete and coach, for an honest conversation about postpartum realities we rarely prepare women for. Winnie shares her personal experience navigating:

  • Postpartum panic attacks and mental health struggles
  • Grieving the body and strength she once had
  • Training, coaching, and showing up while feeling disconnected from her body
  • Postpartum injuries women are told are “normal” including pelvic pain, back pain, and core separation
  • The pressure to “bounce back” and how it quietly harms women
  • Learning to start again from ground zero
  • Why breathwork is foundational for healing the nervous system, core, and pelvic floor
  • The power of community in postpartum recovery and motherhood

This episode is for women who are pregnant, postpartum, supporting new mothers or unlearning the idea that healing should be rushed. You don’t bounce back.
You build forward.
