This week we’re joined by Delaney Nelson – known to many of you as the “Hybrid Twin Mama” on Instagram.
Delaney is a hybrid athlete, coach, competitor and mum of twins, and in this episode she shares what it really looked like rebuilding herself after motherhood.
From gaining 100lbs during pregnancy, stepping away from movement completely, and feeling like she’d “blacked out” for two years postpartum… to starting with stroller walks around the block, some Peloton classes, then a half marathon — and eventually finding herself competing in HYROX.
We talk about:
- The reality of postpartum identity lossLetting go of ego and starting from zeroMoving from a weight-loss mindset to fuelling like an athlete againTraining through chaos (and twin life)Why community changes everythingBody confidence on the start lineAnd why the first step is always the hardest
Delaney is honest, vulnerable and incredibly empowering — especially for mums who feel like they’ve lost themselves somewhere along the way.
If you’ve ever felt behind, overwhelmed, or unsure whether you can start again… this one is for you.
