Or worse… the barefoot brigade with their gargoyle toes out on airplane carpet that’s probably seen vomit, poop, and 20 years of crumbs.

Because honestly, I don’t care what science says — the aisle is fresher air, faster bathroom access, and my pelvic floor does not have time to gently wake a stranger when I gotta go. And don’t even get me started on boarding. We’ve landed people on the moon, but somehow airlines still make us line up like cattle and cr...

Send us a text You know those reserved parking spots for expecting moms at the grocery store? Love them.

You know those prime parking spots for pregnant moms or parents with small kids? Yeah, we need that, but for boutique workout classes. In this episode, I make my formal pitch to society: save a spot (just one!) for the overwhelmed, over-scheduled, trying-her-best working mom who may or may not have slept last night. I talk about the chaos of planning a Pilates class with three young kids, why I’m in my Pilates Girl Era, and how the real barrier to fitness isn't motivation — it's unpredictability
