WE ARE MULTIPLED

Do you have Identical Twins? Identical Triplets? Fraternal twins? Fraternal Triplets? It all applies to Paige and Jenna's story of growing up as identical twins. Both women are successful business people and accomplished marathon runners, but we focus on their upbringing, and what they would caution parents of multiples to watch out for while raising their kids. It's a fresh perspective for us... this time we listen to the 'kids' rather than the parents!

Tina joined our mighty W.A.M Instagram when we launched, and we have been enthralled with her since. We were immediately in love with her funny stories about her husband, her frank nature, and then she started posting about their organizational and planning techniques. We knew we had to talk with her about her plans and share them with you.  

She was very pregnant with her twins at the time of this recording, so we discussed their plans, their excel sheets and their goals a family going from 3 to 5. She shares openly and honestly how she feels about having twins with a toddler at home,and their awesomely organized and prioritized family plan for the arrival of the twins.

You won't believe what you are about to hear. Jaime Whitmore is a professional triathlete who is one of the most-winningest XTERRA triathletes to ever compete in the off road series. Betsy met Jaime in 2004 when they were both in Thailand for an XTERRA event, Jaime was there to race and Betsy covered the event for Triathlete magazine. On a whim Betsy looked up Jaime last month and couldn't believe what she found out. Jaime had had cancer, Jaime had major portions of the musculature in her leg removed, Jaime has twins, Jaime has a gold medal. Curious? You don't want to miss this interview, the first time Betsy and Jaime, and Agatha!, have talked in 16 years.

Ashley Laube, aka the baby whisperer has helped raise FOUR sets of twins and many singletons in her career as a caregiver and educator. She sits downs with Agatha to talk about what parents should look for when choosing a nanny, red flags to screen for, and why finding the right person to bring into your family starts with talking to your partner about what you both need and want from a caregiver.

Being pregnant with multiples and moving your body-yes you can! Betsy and Agatha talk about the importance of moving while pregnant, different types of movement you can do, and how breathing and moving will change your mindset and mood. They encourage you to not only do it for yourself, but for your babies as well!

We are all wading through unprecedented times. And ‘wading’ is apt... not swimming, gliding, flying or any other word that indicates ease or grace. COVID has effected us personally, professionally and probably most relatively, with our families. Because of these times and the unlikelihood that life will return to normal-ish anytime soon, Agatha and Betsy will be dropping  mini podcast episodes, discussing how they are getting through the daily crazy and where they are finding the silver linings. And in case you also feel the need to vent, and love it when other people do, there will be some ranting too:)

Agatha talks to Dr. Bridgette Chelf, DC about all things fertility, pregnancy and babies. This is a chock full chat covering lots of topics from growing multiples and caring for your body, breastfeeding multiples, postpartum support and common newborn issues that come with multiples ( all solvable outside of the traditional medical options).   Dr. Bridgette Chelf, DC is the owner of Ocean Wellness and a holistic Chiropractor and Craniosacral Therapist. She founded this practice in 1996, always with the vision of it becoming the wellness center it is today.  Bridgette is committed to serving her clients in their journey to health and well-being.

She is always learning and expanding to better serve her patients, and in that quest, Ocean Wellness has expanded to include many complementary modalities of care.
