SOLO EPISODE -The 3 Biggest Challenges in Women’s Pelvic Health—and How to Cut Through the Noise
In this episode, we dive into the world of information overload—especially when it comes to women’s health. With so much advice coming from social media, friends, and even well-meaning strangers, how do you know what’s accurate and what actually applies to you?
We explore how to cut through the noise, become better critical thinkers, and recognize when it’s time to change direction if something isn’t working. From handling unsolicited advice to understanding new information about diastasis recti, we talk about what it takes to stay grounded in a sea of health “tips.”
Whether you’re navigating perimenopause, trying to add more ab work to your routine, or simply curious about how to vet your sources, this conversation will help you feel more confident in your decisions and less overwhelmed by conflicting voices.
We talk about:

Knowing when to change course
Adding in ab work safely
Handling unwanted advice
Vetting your sources for credibility
