Leah Barto is discussing her current role as a mother of two young children, ages six and three and a half. She is in a transitional phase where her kids are no longer babies but still require significant attention. Alongside her parenting duties, Leah works part-time with BirthFit, where she helps develop and oversee their online programs as the company switches to a new platform.

She also continues working as a doula but has scaled back, focusing only on close friends and home births to align with her current priorities. Leah emphasizes how she and her husband have made intentional decisions, based on their family values, to prioritize being present in their children's lives. This has included financial sacrifices and shifting responsibilities so that she can stay home and nurture their children, a role that feels deeply aligned with her heart and purpose.

Diane Lee is a physiotherapist in Canada. She specializes in manual therapy focusing on prenatal and postpartum women. Lindsey discovered some of her research contributions when she was looking for research on Diastasis Recti Abdominis (DRA). Diane has studied DRA extensively. She has determined that IRD (Inter Recti Distance) does not matter when assessing DRA. Diane states that depth tells the story of functionality.

If you’re at all interested in DRA (and prolapse), this episode is a must listen! 

A bit on Diane…She graduated with distinction from the University of British Columbia with a Bachelor degree in the Science of Rehabilitation in 1976. She has been a member of the Canadian Physiotherapy Association since 1976 and a fellow of the Canadian Academy of Manipulative Therapy since 1981 (FCAMT). She completed  certification in Intramuscular Stimulation (IMS) in 2001, Yoga teacher training in 2012, pelvic floor certification in 2013 and was recognized by the Canadian Physiotherapy Association as a clinical specialist in Woman’s Health in 2016. She is well published (books, chapters and journal articles) and the innovator of two pelvic support belts for which she holds the patent; The Com-Pressor and the Baby Belly Pelvic Support (www.babybellypelvicsupport.com). Diane owns, directs and is a practicing physiotherapist at Diane Lee & Associates (http://www.dianeleephysio.com). She has continued to maintain an on-going clinical practice for over 40 years and while she follows the research evidence closely, she draws from this deep clinical experience for her teaching and lecturing in the clinic, in Canada and internationally.
