Honest conversations about pelvic health, sex, and the topics no one talks about.

How you lift, pull, push throughout the day can be contributing to your pelvic floor problems. Remember to always inhale in preparation and exhale with effort, or “blow as you go.”

Nobody shows you how to apply vaginal estrogen cream, so here’s how I teach it. 👇
Would you squeeze cream on your face and just leave it there? Of course not. You’d massage it in.
✅ Wash your hands
✅ Use the applicator only to measure your prescribed amount
✅ Apply the cream to your index finger
✅ Gently rub it in all along the vaginal walls
✅ Use the leftover cream on the v***a, including the inner lips, the urethral opening, the cl****is, and the bottom of the vaginal opening
Your provider sets your amount and schedule. This is education, not medical advice.
Save this and send it to someone who’s been wondering.

The Public Toilet Dilemma. Do you sit or hover over the toilet because you are afraid of germs? Sitting on a nest of paper allows your pelvic floor muscles to fully relax to better empty without the need to strain or push. When you hover over a toilet seat, the muscles don’t relax, and you need to push or strain to empty, which weakens the pelvic floor muscles, contributing to pelvic floor dysfunction, including urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse, among others.

It's happening! Season 2 of Yeah, We're Going There is in the works. 🎙️

Before I lock in the lineup, I want to hear from you: what topic have you been wanting me to cover? Menopause, pelvic floor, hormone health, men's health, something nobody's talking about yet? Tell me below.

Drop it in the comments, and I'll pull from this list as I build out the season.

“Testosterone therapy causes prostate cancer” is one of the most persistent myths in men’s health, and it’s kept a lot of men from getting treated for symptoms that were actually affecting their quality of life.
The fear traces back to old, limited research from decades ago. More recent studies haven’t found a clear causal link between testosterone therapy and prostate cancer. That doesn’t mean monitoring goes out the window. PSA testing is still a normal part of safe, well-managed care.
If this myth has been holding you back from a conversation with your doctor, it might be worth revisiting. Link to full episode in bio.

“Just get a hysterectomy, and the endometriosis will be gone.” If only it were that simple.

Endometriosis isn’t contained to the uterus. It can show up on the ovaries, the bowel, the bladder, and other tissue throughout the pelvis. Removing the uterus doesn’t remove that tissue, which is why a hysterectomy alone doesn’t treat the disease.
Excision surgery, which removes the endometriosis tissue itself, is what actually targets it directly.
If you’ve had a hysterectomy and are still dealing with symptoms, you’re not imagining it, and you’re not out of options. Full conversation on the podcast; link in bio.

You were told this was normal. It’s not. 👇 Full episode in bio.

So many women hear “that’s just what happens after kids” and accept leaking as their new normal. It’s not something you have to just live with.
Small leaks when you sneeze, laugh, or work out are a signal, not a life sentence. Pelvic floor physical therapy can address the actual cause, not just manage the symptom.
If this is you, you’re not broken, and you’re not alone. Drop a 🙋‍♀️ below if you’ve been told this was “normal,” and check the podcast link in bio for the full breakdown

Probiotics are live bacteria and yeasts that help maintain balance in your gut, support digestion, and boost immune function. Think yogurt, kefir, sauerkraut, kimchi, and tempeh.
Prebiotics aren’t bacteria at all. They’re indigestible fibers that feed the good bacteria you already have. Think whole grains, bananas, asparagus, onions, garlic, and legumes.
Together, they form a symbiotic relationship, and that combo supports digestion, immunity, mental health, and inflammation all at once.

Trillions of bacteria, viruses, and fungi live in your gut, and every time you eat, they produce compounds that influence your immune system, your metabolism, and even your brain. One of the most important ones? Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), which are natural anti-inflammatories linked to a lower risk of diabetes, heart disease, and more.
The best part: your microbiome isn’t fixed. Diet diversity today can shift your gut environment within days.

Your gut health is whole-body health.

When cortisol stays elevated, it breaks down the tight junctions that keep your intestinal barrier sealed. That leads to increased gut permeability, aka “leaky gut,” and it can trigger inflammation, bloating, fatigue, brain fog, and even pelvic floor symptoms.
Your gut and your pelvic floor are more connected than you think. I go deep on the gut-brain-pelvic axis in this week’s episode of Yeah, We’re Going There. New episode out now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeartRadio, and YouTube. See link in bio🎧

Managing stress isn’t just self-care; it’s gut health. It’s pelvic health. It’s whole-body health.
