WHO AM I?
Honestly, how does one answer this about themselves lol nonetheless I will give it a red hot crack to tell you a little about who I believe I am right now, knowing this is ever-changing and ever-evolving (for both me and you)
I am Rachel Giampietro, proud mama of 2 children (so far 😉 ) , wife to an incredible husband, Nick, where together we serve humanity through Strong Fams.
I am a certified pre & post natal nutrition & exercise coach , a mentor, a singer/songwriter, a self-confessed truth-seeker and the host of the Strong Mamas podcast… but I know my greatest pride & joy and purpose in this lifetime is being a mother. When I became a mother, everything changed for me.
Being a typical manifesting generator in human design, I am a multi-passionate and multi-faceted soul and there are many things that set my soul on fire.
I have spent the last 10 years intentionally shaping my life to ensure that everything I touch or taste and experience leaves me living a life rich in freedom, connection, growth, health & vitality.
These are my core values and this is evident in my coaching & mentoring & teaching approach but ultimately, the life I live.
I know my purpose here is to use my voice, in all it’s forms to inspire people to move, think and feel more deeply.
From writing, speaking, singing to teaching….I am here to learn my greatest lessons from my life and lead from that place. And so here I am.
My biggest gift I can give to you is that that I view the world differently to “the norm” .
This is my superpower because I know in sharing my views & experience and using my voice in all it’s form, I can inspire other people to move, think and feel differently & more deeper which is probably why you’re here.
I LOVE connecting and supporting like-minded women (especially fellow mamas) who wish to go after their dreams and live their healthiest, most free & abundant life every single day, despite being in one of the busiest seasons of their lives.
So if this is you…. you have come to the right place.
My journey INTO MOTHERHOOD
‘I struggled silently in the first few years’…
I entered motherhood so humbly in 2015 when my son, Lucas, was born and it has challenged me in ways I could have never have prepared for or possibly imagined.
I struggled silently in the first few years but after hitting what I call “rock bottom” in Dec 2016 (listen more on the podcast here) I knew I needed to pick myself up so I could be the woman and mother I knew I was born to be and who my children deserved.
I also knew that I needed to share my journey to inspire other struggling mothers to do the same.
For me, getting back into exercise regularly & educating myself in all the many ways to improve and enhance my physical, emotional, mental & spiritual health and well-being saved me from the depths of despair in motherhood.
This is exactly why I want to work with mothers today so they can learn how to save themselves and actually THRIVE in motherhood, not just survive.
Being educated on how and why it’s important to look after ME first has helped me grow into and show up as the mother, wife & woman I yearn to be.
And today, after years of life experience, learning, healing and growing …
I feel unshackled and free from the demands of motherhood.
And it’s beautiful blissful place to be. I know this because I’ve been on the other side too.
I am walking, living & breathing proof that you can get through the hardest, darkest times in your life and you can rise from your own ashes.
Sometimes you just need someone to hold your hand and walk you through it - and that’s what you can count on me and the spaces I create for.
I look so forward to connecting with you, mama.
Thank you for being here.
