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 93: Why Rest Is Critical For Wellness
In Episode 93 of the Not Your Mother's Pelvic Floor Podcast, Aliya shares why she is intentionally choosing rest this summer - because it's her summer too.
She explains how rest doesn't always feel natural or possible for her, and mulls over some reasons why resting is hard for so many of us - despite the fact that rest truly is critical for our health + wellness.
She brainstorms a few micro-moments of intentional "rest" that you could integrate into your days to improve your wellness - like skipping the expensive smoothie and making a slow cup of tea at home, moving your body in a way that feels nourishing, sleeping a little bit more instead of rushing to that early morning workout, or making yourself breakfast. Rest doesn't always mean sleeping or napping. Rest means taking care of ourselves in small + meaningful ways.
She also announces that the podcast is taking a summer break - so she can have a few hours back every week to...rest! New episodes will be back in September, but you have over 90 episodes filled with pelvic health tips and meaningful conversations to catch up on while you (hopefully) rest a little bit this season.
