Postpartum Part II
Postpartum Part 2: Strength, Support & Real Talk
Our Postpartum Part 2 Program is designed to meet you exactly where you are—offering the tools, support, and structure to help you rebuild strength, confidence, and connection to your body after birth.
Start with the conversation.
We kick things off with a powerful, honest discussion between Hilary and Dr. Emily Oster—economist, bestselling author, and trusted voice in evidence-based pregnancy and parenting. Emily was a rock for Hilary during both pregnancy and recovery, and together, they unpack the truths and misconceptions around returning to exercise after giving birth.
Then, check in with your body.
Before diving back into Soto, we invite you to begin with The Check-In, a foundational series created in partnership with Dr. Aimee Anagnostos, one of the top pelvic floor specialists at Myo, a leading physical therapy practice. These sessions focus on pelvic floor engagement, core reactivation, mobility, and recovery from Diastasis Recti. Hilary moves alongside you, guided in real-time by Dr. Aimee, so you feel supported every step of the way.
Finally, build at your own pace.
Our 4-week Soto Postnatal Program offers brand-new sculpt and cardio workouts that progress safely and gradually—from a 15-minute sculpt in Week 1 to a 30-minute sweat in Week 4. Each week includes 4 new classes, designed to build strength and endurance while honoring the realities of postpartum recovery. Want to stay in Week 1 for a few weeks? Perfect. This program is designed for real progress, on your timeline.
