MOTHERHOOD IN FOCUS: Annie Thorisdottir On Body Acceptance & Handling Negative Feedback

Leading up to Mother’s Day, I’m chatting with six extraordinary women. Some moms. Some not. But, each has a story to tell, forever shaped by the women before them.

Today, on the show I’m talking to Annie Thorisdottir, CrossFit’s 2x Fittest Woman on Earth. The Reebok-sponsored athlete is, like Sarah Larson Levey who I spoke with earlier this week, a new mom of a pandemic-born baby. We talk about how Annie navigated critical feedback on her workouts during pregnancy as well as her timeline to getting back in the swing of things after having her baby Freya. She also shares the one thing that could make her withdraw from the 2021 CrossFit Games and she offers up some essential advice to any new mom just trying to make it from day to day.
