Inside the Box
A podcast for women and professionals alike, hosted by mums and Women's Health Physiotherapists, Kat, Tash, and Caitlin. Established and driven by our desires to share our passion for educating and empowering women to better understand their bodies, in particular - what's inside their 'box'. Amongst ourselves, real-life patients and leading industry experts, we’ll unpack a variety of topics including pelvic floor dysfunction, pregnancy, exercise, birth, postpartum, sexual pain, endometriosis, leakage, prolapse and beyond.
Inside the Box
What no one ever asks - with Taryn Hallam

One of the most influential figures in Australian pelvic health physiotherapy joins us this week. Taryn has spent decades shaping how clinicians learn and practice women’s health - and this conversation gets into the heart of how that happened. Personal, honest, and worth every minute.
What We Cover
- The early years. The experiences and influences that formed Taryn, and what the field looked like when she was coming up.
- Going straight into women’s health - Why she took a less conventional path as a new grad, and what was driving those early decisions.
- Finding her niche and founding WHTA - The turning point where women’s health became her thing, and how that led to building Women’s Health Training Associates.
- Growth beyond expectation - When she realised WHTA had become something far bigger than she’d planned, and what made that possible.
- Visibility and pressure - What it’s actually like to operate at that level of influence, and what’s been hardest.
- What people get wrong about success - The factors that have genuinely mattered across her career, and what gets oversimplified from the outside.
- The question no one asks - As a woman, mother, and leader, something Taryn is well placed to say but rarely gets asked.
