... why did you write this book? What was like the main reason you wanted to write this book?

Well, because I think in the work like I kinda talked about earlier with just who I am and the women I know, whether they're younger than me, in my age group, or beyond, I think a lot of women are just struggling with I don't feel like myself.

And whether it's stress, it's aging, it's, it's caring for parents and children, um, you know, just stressor- stressors of the world right now are so strong that I think that we are completely disconnected from ourselves.

So, so this is kind of resetting our, you know, kind of if you think about a computer, shit's going wrong with the computer, you can pl- press reset, and that hard drive starts fresh again, and I think that's what we need to do for ourselves.

It's not trying to be someone else or being a younger version of ourselves, but remembering who we are as we are right now, but reliving the movements that we grew up with as babies.

Like, this is developmental fundamental movements that we've lost in adulthood, and it's reclaiming those pieces of ourselves to reconnect and just to experience the joy of being in our own bodies.

So really the inspiration for this book came from, um, kind of a movement system called Original Strength.
