The Not Your Mother's Pelvic Floor Podcast
The Not Your Mother's Pelvic Floor podcast is hosted by Pelvic Floor Physiotherapist and founder of Box Wellness Co., Aliya Dhalla (B.Sc, MPT). You'll learn all the things you should know about your pelvic health - from leaks, painful intimacy, constipation, periods, pelvic pain, prolapse, preparing for birth, postpartum recovery, menopause and so much more. Nothing is taboo on the Not Your Mother's Pelvic Floor podcast.
Solo episodes are educational - Aliya explains why things go "wrong" with our pelvic health and what to do about it. Guest episodes reveal what we as women were told about our bodies growing up, where we learned about puberty, sex, and menopause, and how those early conversations shaped how we navigate our pelvic health as adults.
New episodes every Wednesday.

Episode 86: Surabhi Veitch on Relationships, Raising Kids, and Returning To Ourselves
In Episode 86 of the Not Your Mother's Pelvic Floor podcast, Aliya chats with Surabhi Veitch, the "Passionate Physio" about periods, raising kids, relationships, and managing stressful phases.
In this episode, you'll hear Surabhi and Aliya chat about:
- Whether Surabhi wants her mother's pelvic floor...or not!
- Why she thinks her mom is strong, even though she doesn't do much formal exercise.
- The types of conversations Surabhi had about puberty, body changes, periods and sex while growing up in India, Bahrain, and Canada - and the types of conversations she is having with her young children.
- How her first period was celebrated by her family.
- Why nurturing intuition and encouraging them to listen to their bodies is something that both Surabhi and Aliya are doing with their kids.
- How Surabhi is high-maintenance and not ashamed to say it!
- The challenges Surabhi faces raising biracial kids and making sure they are connected to their Indian + Hindu roots as children born and raised in Canada.
- How Surabhi manages stressful times like postpartum, raising small kids, and navigating a troubled world.
- What it means to listen to your body when we are used to chronically abandoning our own needs.
- Why Aliya thinks that guilt is a liar - particularly when it shows up when you try to take time for yourself.
