From being an international-level athlete to experiencing miscarriage on an international stage to motherhood, this interview with jessica lucero had it all!

**In this episode, Jessica speaks about pregnancy loss. If this is too painful of a subject matter to listen to, please skip this week’s episode** 

Being an athlete and wanting to be a mom is tough. Not because you can’t do it, but because your athletic window and your fertility window directly overlap. 

For Jessica, her journey was not easy. She experienced 2 pregnancy losses and then because pregnant for the third time with her son Kyran in March of 2021. 

Jessica Lucero is our guest today. She is an international-level weightlifter and coach.

She is now on the coaching staff for Vero Weightlifting team and we are so excited to have her on the podcast today!
