075 - Pregnancy, Returning to Derby, and Finding Balance in Life as Parents and Skaters with Special Guests Liz and Siren




Power Through the 4th Whistle Roller Derby Podcast show

Summary: <p>In this episode, I asked for the help of two of my teammates -- Lizzy Luscious and Siren Song to ask about their experience going through pregnancy, returning to training for roller derby, and finding balance in their new lives as parents. What was it like telling the team? Did they step away from derby or stay close by? How quickly did they return to skating? </p> <p>Roller derby isn't <em>every</em> part of our lives, but it DOES make our lives <em>better</em>. You can carve out time for you and time for family. If you set boundaries, you really CAN have it all.<br> <br> Reach out to Liz on Instagram <a href="https://www.instagram.com/lizzyluscious/">@lizzyluscious</a><br> Liz's Threadless store: <a href="https://lizzymac13.threadless.com/">https://lizzymac13.threadless.com/</a></p> <p>Visit our sponsor, Bout Betties at <a href="https://boutbetties.com/">https://boutbetties.com/</a>.  Subscribe today using our podcast’s promo code POWER10 for 10% off your first pack!</p> <p>WE NOW HAVE A PATREON PAGE!
