Rae is a certified personal trainer specializing in pre/postnatal fitness—a path shaped not just by her credentials, but by her own four pregnancies and a lesson she learned the hard way.

During her first pregnancy in 2018, Rae continued weightlifting right up until she gave birth. It contributed to a smooth pregnancy and recovery, but it also left her with an umbilical hernia and mild bladder prolapse—complications she later discovered were linked to not knowing how to breathe and engage her core and pelvic floor correctly while exercising. "I didn't even know what a pelvic floor was," she shares.

That experience changed everything. By her second pregnancy, Rae had discovered pre/postnatal fitness certifications and threw herself into learning. What she found not only protected her own body, it ignited a passion she's never looked back from.

Now a mother of four and a specialist in the postpartum training field, Rae built Train with Rae to make sure other women never have to learn these lessons the hard way.

Can you tell us about our business and who you help?

I work with women who want to stay active through pregnancy and postpartum—not just to feel good, but to do it safely and with real confidence. My programs are built around the education and technique that make all the difference: proper breathing, core connection, pelvic floor awareness. The things I had to learn the hard way, so my clients don't have to.

Having gone through four active pregnancies, three of which I was able to apply my pre/postnatal expertise, I feel extremely confident in my ability to guide other women through their journeys. It's not something I take lightly.

"I have never felt as passionate as I do now to open the eyes of all women to the benefits of staying active during pregnancy, but more importantly, how to do so safely."

What problem were you facing before using Movement?

I was originally creating PDF programs, but formatting became extremely time consuming and made making updates to the program a grueling process. It took forever to get those updates out to my users!

I knew I wanted to be able to create an app to not only be more user friendly for my clients, but for me to be able to get more content, and more up-to-date content, to them at a faster, more current pace.

What made you choose Movement over other platforms? Did you try any others?

I loved the interface and look of the Movement app. I was looking into others but ultimately liked the versatility of Movement the best.

Why did you particularly like about Movement?

How the workouts were formatted and easy to create.

Rae's story is one a lot of fitness coaches will recognize. PDFs work until you start trying to scale. Every update becomes a project. Every new program means starting the formatting process all over again. And meanwhile, your clients are waiting.

Movement changed that. Today, Train with Rae is a clean, fully branded app where her clients can access everything they need, and where Rae can update and add content without the friction that used to slow her down. She spends less time managing documents and more time doing what she actually set out to do - guiding women through one of the most significant physical experiences of their lives.

For a trainer who believes deeply that staying active during pregnancy is not just possible but transformative, having a platform that finally matches the quality of her work made all the difference.
