Hi Beautiful! I’m Jesseny
Welcome to my corner of the internet where motherhood meets wellness, and where real talk about pregnancy and parenting happens every single day.
I’m Jesseny – not Jessica, not Jesse – but Jesseny. My parents wanted to put their own spin on my name, and honestly? It’s perfectly imperfect, just like this whole motherhood journey we’re on together.
My Story
For over 12 years, I’ve been passionate about health and wellness, working as a high-performance athletic trainer at one of Canada’s most prestigious private clubs. But my real expertise? It comes from walking this incredible, messy, beautiful path of pregnancy and motherhood right alongside you.
My journey into the world of prenatal and maternal wellness began long before I became a mom myself. I was already training expecting mothers and fell in love with supporting women through this transformative time. In fact, my work in this area led to me writing an entire chapter on exercise during pregnancy for Canada’s Pregnancy Care Guide back in 2009.
But here’s the thing – all my certifications, speaking engagements, and professional accolades couldn’t fully prepare me for my own pregnancy journey. The sleepless nights, the worry, the joy, the overwhelm – I felt it all, just like you.
Why The Empowered Momma Exists
After years of helping other women and then experiencing pregnancy and motherhood firsthand, I realized something was missing. We needed a space where real, evidence-based information meets genuine support. Where you can get practical tips without the judgment, and honest advice without the overwhelm.
This blog is my love letter to every woman navigating pregnancy, birth, and those early days of motherhood. Whether you’re reading this at 3 AM during a feeding session, sneaking a moment during your lunch break, or researching everything you can about your upcoming journey – you belong here.
