Hi, I’m Ryan—creator of Built Different Mamas. I’m an Olympian, firefighter, and mom, and I built this community for women who refuse to lose their strength or identity in motherhood.
Built Different Mamas is where high-performing, career-driven women come together to share real experiences, train with purpose and support each other through pregnancy, postpartum, and beyond. BDM isn’t a theory or a trend—it’s built from real-world experience balancing training, fatigue, work, and motherhood.
Here, we adapt without losing intensity, build strength without ego, and show up for ourselves and each other even when life is loud and unpredictable. Pregnancy doesn’t make you fragile—it challenges you to train smarter and yes…sometimes ask for help.
This is a space for women who want to stay strong, capable, and unapologetically themselves—surrounded by others doing the same.
