Twenty weeks of guided recovery with Ciara, starting as early as 36 weeks of pregnancy — pelvic floor first, phased rebuild, and a lifetime protocol that’s yours to keep.
“After four pregnancies, this is the best I’ve done postpartum — physically and mentally.” Kelsie M. · after her fourth baby
Most postpartum care ends at the 6-week appointment. Real recovery is just beginning. Monarch Mothers is the program for women who want a phased, clinically informed plan — one that respects the first 30 days, restores the pelvic floor before adding load, and rebuilds strength on a foundation that lasts. Whether this is your first baby or your fourth, this is recovery done properly.
Enrollment is rolling — you can start any week of the year. A short intake anchors the program to where you actually are: pregnant, early postpartum, or further along.
The default plan — 6 weeks of rest, then back to whatever you were doing — is not a plan. It’s a gap. Pelvic floor dysfunction, core disconnection, and emotional dysregulation are not rare. They are the predictable result of skipping the rebuild.
Monarch Mothers exists to close that gap, with a program that is phased, never rushed, and built to be kept for life.
women experience pelvic floor dysfunction within 10 years of giving birth.

is the full Monarch Mothers arc — phased through The Held Phase, Intro, and Rebuild.
Recovery has a sequence. Each phase must be complete before the next begins — that’s what makes the strength stick.
Rest without guilt. The 5-5-5 rule, breath work, and pelvic floor reconnection. No coaching yet — just held.
A safe return to motion. Reacquaintance with movement, no metrics, no pushing. Coaching begins gently.
Building lasting strength on a functional foundation. Loaded movement, progressive structure, real momentum.
The first 30 days are not athletic. They are clinical. Tissue is healing, hormones are shifting, and the nervous system is recalibrating. Slowing down is not optional — it’s the work.
“She’s not being coached yet — just held. Coaching starts when her body is ready.”
A safe return to motion. The body has begun to settle, and we begin to reintroduce movement — slowly, deliberately, and with the pelvic floor leading the sequence.
“Strength is only built on top of a functional foundation. Never before it.”
Twelve weeks of progressive, loaded movement. By the end of week 20, you are stronger, more regulated, and more confident in your body than you were before this baby. Not bouncing back — moving forward.
“Strong, capable, confident — the strongest version of the mother you’ve now become.”
After you enroll, you book a call with Ciara — included — to anchor the program to your body. If you’re pregnant, we walk through your birth preferences, your support system, and the 5-5-5 rule so you arrive postpartum with a plan. If you’re already postpartum, we meet you where your body actually is and start from the phase that fits.
Most programs hand you content and walk away. The Foundation starts with a conversation — so the first thing the program does is meet you, before any movement begins.

“Working with Ciara after my third baby made such a huge difference — especially compared to my first two recoveries. Her program helped me heal my diastasis recti and strengthen my pelvic floor, but more than that, it truly reset my foundation so I could build real strength again. The program moved at the perfect pace while my body was healing — I never felt rushed or overwhelmed.”
“After four pregnancies, I can honestly say this is the best I’ve done postpartum — physically and mentally. I’ve been able to lose weight, gain muscle, and feel more confident, all while maintaining (and actually improving) my milk supply. My pelvic floor and core stability are much stronger, sooner in recovery, than after any of my previous pregnancies.”
“Ciara’s program gave me the motivation and accountability to start moving my body postpartum sooner than I would have on my own. I really benefited from the mind and body connection — and Ciara was amazing to work with, answering any questions I had.”
“After about a week and a half I could already feel a bit stronger. With my first I did a little bit of rehab, but nothing like this — I can tell a huge difference in my core and pelvic floor.”
“Ciara’s postpartum program helped me get back to myself, and I looked forward to exercise every day. It helped me get stronger, better endurance, and healed my diastasis recti / deep core fully. I could not recommend Ciara’s program more — I will be doing it with all my babies.”

Monarch Mothers is coaching, not medical care, and is not a substitute for clinical pelvic floor physical therapy. Before you start any movement phase, get clearance from your OB-GYN or healthcare provider. If something feels wrong in your body during the program — pain, bleeding, or anything else — pause and check in with your provider first.
