The FIND YOUR STRENGTH Podcast

Ep 20: Just Because It's Common Doesn't Mean It's "Normal" w/ Krystal Schouten

Mia Harris

On this episode I am joined by another very special guest Krystal Schouten. Krystal is the owner of Fitness Reset and draws inspiration from motherhood, women empowerment and her love of fitness. She founded Fitness Reset to spread this passion, placing a particular emphasis on educating women about their bodies through transitions like pregnancy, postpartum, and midlife. She solves symptoms issues like incontinence, pain in the back, pelvis, or hip areas. Her expertise extends to pelvic floor health for all ages, emphasizing that understanding one's body is crucial for overall health & well-being. Krystal encourages women of any age to benefit from her specialized guidance as a pelvic floor movement specialist. 

In this episode we discuss: 

  • Krystal's background and story and how she got into women's health and wellness 
  • Why she decided to start her own business and what lead her to this career path
  • The driving force behind diving deeper into women's health issues such as incontinence, bladder issues, back pain etc. and why she feels these issues aren't as widely discussed
  • When she would recommend someone to work with a pelvic floor specialist 
  • The difference between bracing to restore your pelvic floor and creating diaphragmatic pressure to protect the spine when you're lifting weights
  • The biggest misconceptions women have when it comes to pelvic floor health
  • Recommendations on where to start and what you could be implementing on your own to start improving your pelvic floor health
