Coaching for mums who want to feel strong, confident and like THEMSELVES again
Without restrictive diets, unrealistic routines or trying to squeeze fitness into a life that simply doesn't have hours to spare.
Pre and postpartum coaching with Liv & Kristy
Message us "MOTHERHOOD" We'll send you the details, pricing and coaching optionsMotherhood changes a lot.
It changes your body. Your routine. Your sleep. Your priorities. Your energy. Your hormones. Your relationship with food and exercise.
And sometimes, somewhere amongst looking after everyone else, you end up at the bottom of your own list.
The Motherhood Method was created to change that.
Not by giving you MORE to do, but by helping you find a realistic way to look after yourself, get stronger, improve your nutrition and work towards your goals alongside being a mum.
Because you deserve to feel good in your body too.
Nichola is 30lbs+ down postpartum with 3 beautiful children. She's incredibly busy, so we created different phases for different times in her life, from meal plans to logging her food, and from short home workouts to getting back into her work gym.
Imagine this for a second...
You get dressed in the morning and actually LIKE how your clothes fit.
You feel stronger, fitter and more confident in your body.
You have more energy and don't feel like you're constantly running on empty.
You eat dinner with your family instead of making yourself a separate "diet meal".
You enjoy birthdays, holidays, meals out and weekends without feeling like you've ruined everything.
You know exactly what to do when you have a busy week, a poorly child, terrible sleep or approximately 193 other things that need your attention.
And most importantly...
You start feeling like YOU again.
Michelle was training hard when she came to us, but wasn't seeing the results she was after. As a busy mum with a demanding business and constant travel, we got her training more efficiently for her time and taught her how to fuel herself. The results speak for themselves!
If you've struggled to prioritise yourself since becoming a mum, you're definitely not alone.
Most mums don't need someone telling them to "just be more disciplined".
You probably already know that eating well and moving your body would make you feel better.
The difficult bit is actually making that happen amongst everything else.
Maybe you've tried following a meal plan, but it doesn't work with family dinners.
Maybe you've started exercising again, but the second your child gets ill or you have a horrendous night's sleep, the routine disappears.
Maybe you're constantly picking at the kids' leftovers, grabbing whatever's quickest or realising at 3pm you've barely eaten.
Maybe you go through phases of being REALLY motivated, only to end up completely overwhelmed a few weeks later.
Maybe your body has changed and you're not sure how to train it now.
Or maybe you've spent so long prioritising everyone else that you don't even know where to start with prioritising yourself.
That's EXACTLY why we created The Motherhood Method.
Sharon is a mum of 3 who lost 3 stone through home workouts, learning how to fuel herself and prioritising herself even in the chaos. In her own words: "I can't believe I actually look like that. Never in a million years did I think I would have a body like that."
Meet Liv & Kristy
We're Liv and Kristy, the women behind The Motherhood Method. We've combined two very different areas of experience to create something we felt was desperately needed for mums.
Hey, I'm Liv 🤍
I'm an online fitness and nutrition coach, and I've spent over a decade helping women get stronger, improve their nutrition, change their body composition and build confidence without fitness taking over their entire life. I'm also a step mum to 5 young kids.
I've coached hundreds of women through different seasons of life, and one thing became incredibly clear: mums need a different approach.
When you're juggling children, work, relationships, broken sleep, busy schedules and everyone else's needs, being told to simply "try harder" isn't helpful. My approach is all about removing that all-or-nothing mentality.
Hey, I'm Kristy 🤍
I'm a coach and a midwife with 13 years of experience supporting women through pregnancy, birth, postpartum and the huge transition into motherhood.
I've spent most of my career caring for women during some of the biggest and most vulnerable moments of their lives. As a mum of 4 myself, I've seen first-hand how much motherhood can change you physically, mentally and emotionally, and how quickly a mum's own needs can drop to the bottom of the list.
My approach is compassionate, realistic and centred around meeting women exactly where they are. There's no pressure to "bounce back". No expectation to have everything figured out. And absolutely no need for perfection.
Together, we created the coaching programme we believe mums actually need.
Introducing The Motherhood Method
A realistic approach to fitness, nutrition and confidence, built specifically around motherhood.
This isn't a generic transformation programme with the word "mum" stuck on the front. Motherhood is built into the method.
Our philosophy is simple:
The best plan isn't the most extreme plan. It's the one that gets you results AND works in your real life.
Kristy is 50lbs+ down with PCOS and 4 children, all through sustainable nutrition and fitness habits, without magically finding more hours in the day! The emotional eating and yo-yo dieting have stopped FOR GOOD, and she's kept the results for years!
Here's how we do it 👇
The Motherhood Method
We figure out what YOU actually need 🎯
Before changing anything, we look at the bigger picture, including:
- Your nutrition
- Your training
- Your daily activity
- Your sleep and stress
- Your lifestyle and routine
- Your pregnancy and postpartum history, where relevant
- Your previous diets
- Your relationship with food and exercise
- Your health considerations
And, crucially, what you've struggled to maintain before.
Prescribing five gym sessions to a mum or pregnant woman who can realistically manage two isn't good coaching. Neither is giving you an aggressive diet when you're already exhausted, hungry and overwhelmed.
We figure out what's actually holding you back and create a realistic starting point. So instead of constantly guessing, you finally know what to focus on.
We build YOUR plan 💪
There's no single "mum plan". Your coaching is personalised around you.
Training
Maybe you want to get back into the gym. Maybe you're starting from scratch. Maybe you're postpartum and rebuilding. Maybe you need 20-minute home workouts while your baby naps. Maybe you love classes. Or maybe you're already training hard but not seeing the changes you want.
We'll meet you where YOU are. Your training will be designed around your goals, ability, equipment and, most importantly, the time you ACTUALLY have.
You don't necessarily need more exercise. You need the right exercise, done consistently.
Nutrition
We know mums don't live in a vacuum. There are family dinners, kids' snacks, birthday parties, takeaways, coffee on three hours' sleep... and days when cooking something elaborate absolutely isn't happening.
So we're NOT going to hand every woman the same 1,500-calorie meal plan and send her on her way. Depending on what suits you, we can use personalised meal plans, macro tracking, food diaries, portion guidance or a more flexible habit-based approach.
We'll help you learn how to:
- Eat the same meals as your family
- Increase your protein without overcomplicating everything
- Build easy meals for chaotic days
- Navigate meals out and social occasions
- Fuel yourself properly
- Understand what your body actually needs
And make better choices without needing to be perfect.
We don't just want to help you lose weight. We want to help you build a way of eating you don't constantly need a break from.
We coach you through REAL LIFE 🙌🏻
This is arguably the most important part of The Motherhood Method. Starting something when you're motivated is easy. But what happens when...
Your child is ill?
You've barely slept?
Work is manic?
You've got three birthday parties in one weekend?
Your weight hasn't changed?
You've had a takeaway and immediately feel like you've "ruined it"?
That's when coaching matters MOST.
We don't expect perfect weeks. We help you navigate the imperfect ones.
Through regular check-ins, progress reviews and direct support, we'll look at what's working, what isn't and what needs adjusting. If your routine changes, we adapt.
You don't have to figure everything out alone anymore.
We help you make this your NORMAL 🚀
Our end goal isn't for you to need a coach forever. We want you to:
- Understand your body
- Know how to train effectively
- Know how to fuel yourself
- Know what to do when life gets busy
- Know how to navigate holidays and meals out
- Know what actually matters and what doesn't
And stop panicking every time the scale fluctuates or you miss a workout.
We want looking after yourself to stop being something you do for six weeks before falling off track.
Real mums. Real lives. Real results.
Amy
Amy is a working mum of 2 who needed structure, accountability and a push to train effectively with her super limited time. We even got her abs despite having limited time and energy!
Jen
Jen is 33lbs down and 8 inches off her waist, AND she FINALLY walks into the gym with confidence. As a working mum of 2, we taught her how to navigate meals out, birthdays and social occasions without writing the whole week off.
Results vary from person to person and depend on following the plan.
FAQs
Do I need to be fit already?
Absolutely not. We work with complete beginners through to experienced gym-goers. Your starting point is exactly that: your starting point. We'll build from there.
Do I need a gym membership?
No. You can train at home, in a gym, at classes or a combination. Your training will be based around the equipment, time and environment you actually have access to.
What if I don't have much time?
Then you're exactly who this was designed for. We're not trying to cram fitness into every spare second of your life. We'll identify what gives you the biggest return from the time you DO have.
What if I'm postpartum?
Your individual circumstances matter. We'll take into account where you are postpartum, your recovery and your current ability when deciding what's appropriate. Where necessary, we'll work alongside or recommend input from your healthcare professionals rather than working outside our scope.
What if I'm pregnant?
Pregnancy isn't automatically a reason to stop exercising, but your circumstances and medical guidance matter. Your approach will be adapted appropriately, and we'll always encourage you to speak with your maternity team where necessary. With over 23 years of coaching and supporting pregnant women between us, we know we can support you!
What if I'm a fussy eater?
Welcome to the club 😂 You don't have to suddenly live on foods you hate. We'll work with your preferences and your family rather than expecting you to cook three separate dinners every night.
Do I have to track calories?
No. Some women love the structure of tracking; some absolutely hate it. Depending on your goals and needs, we can use meal plans, tracking, food diaries, portions or habit-based approaches. We'll find what works best for YOU.
What if my week goes completely wrong?
Then we coach you through it. That's quite literally the point. We don't expect motherhood to conveniently disappear because you've started a fitness programme.
Ready to feel like YOU again?
You don't need another Monday restart.
You don't need another extreme diet.
And you definitely don't need another plan that only works when life is perfect.
You need something designed around the reality of being a mum.
Your body. Your family. Your routine. Your goals.
With two coaches in your corner who genuinely understand that there's a whole life happening outside of your workouts and nutrition.
