Peta Murgatroyd is expanding her career past dancing.

The 30-year-old Dancing with the Stars pro -- who just welcomed her first child with husband Maksim Chmerkovskiy on January 4 -- has revealed her plans for a new project.
Murgatroyd is launching a new lifestyle blog online called All Things Fam & Glam to "inspire and engage women," she told People, and "to help them find ways to keep their glam while they take care of their family."
The blog will reportedly include diet, exercise, style and parenting tips. Chmerkovskiy will also guest author pieces on the website.
"I want to provide my fans and women around the world with a resource for information on how to find the right balance between taking care of oneself and taking care of a new family, as well as take part in conversations where they can share their own ideas and experiences," Murgatroyd explained.

Murgatroyd then elaborated on what her goal is for producing this blog as well as social-media channels.
The pro dancer wants to "create a 24/7 resource and empowering place where women can find helpful tips and ideas as they transition into motherhood, as well as provide them with great ways to take care of themselves and maintain a little glamour in their lives."
Murgatroyd has already served as a source of inspiration for women and moms everywhere, as she posted a photo on Instagram last month of her protruding belly eight days after welcoming son Shai Aleksander Chmerkovskiy.
The pro dancer wanted to show the reality of what a woman's body looks like shortly after delivering a child, hoping to squash expectations of a mom needing to shrink back to her pre-birth weight almost immediately.
Murgatroyd fully embraced her pregnancy and shared photos of her progress with fans along the way. She recently called her baby "the best thing that has ever happened" to her.

Murgatroyd and Chmerkovskiy, 36, began dating back in 2012 and had an on-again, off-again relationship before going steady in Spring 2015. The couple got engaged in December 2015 and then confirmed in June of the following year they were expecting Baby No. 1.
It's unclear whether Murgatroyd and Chmerkovskiy will return for Dancing with the Stars' upcoming 24th season in Spring 2017.
