This is the most personal episode I’ve ever recorded. For the past 9 months, I’ve been quietly navigating intense physical pain after emergency surgery for a fibroid torsion—something no one prepared me for. In this raw and vulnerable conversation, I open up about my healing journey and introduce you to the woman who’s been by my side every step of the way: Amy Vander Linden, pelvic floor specialist and founder of Moment of Truth Physical Therapy.

Amy has been a physical therapist for over 20 years and specializes in John F. Barnes Myofascial Release (MFR)—a gentle, deeply effective method that relieves up to 2,000 pounds of pressure from pain-sensitive structures in the body. She's also trained in Visceral Manipulation, a technique that supports optimal digestion and organ function. Her passion? Helping women truly thrive throughout pregnancy, postpartum, and beyond—whether you had a baby 6 weeks ago or 16 years ago (yes, postpartum is forever!).

Together, we get into the “TMI” territory—what no one tells you about pelvic pain, surgical recovery, sexual health, and the emotional toll of living with chronic discomfort. We also talk about how Amy created The Healing Space, a sanctuary that now offers yoga, community support, and full-spectrum healing for women at all stages of life.

If you've ever felt like your pain was invisible, dismissed, or just “something you had to live with”—this episode is for you. Healing is possible. You deserve care. And your story matters.
