Series 2, Episode 3:

Common, Not Normal – Pelvic Health, Confidence & Core Strength with Emily Taylor

In this episode, we're taking a fresh perspective on what fitness really means — because true freedom through fitness is about more than strength or aesthetics. It's about confidence, control, and living your life without hesitation.

Joining us is Emily Taylor, specialist pelvic health physiotherapist and founder of Taylored Physiotherapy. Together, we dive into what can often feel like a private or taboo topic — but shouldn't be. From incontinence and prolapse to pelvic pain and breath work, this conversation sheds light on issues affecting millions of women and men, often silently.

Emily shares her journey from MSK physio in the military to leading voice in pelvic health, and offers empowering insight into why symptoms like urinary leakage, pelvic heaviness, or discomfort might be common, but aren't normal — and what can be done about them.

We talk about:

• The overlooked role of pelvic health in fitness and daily life

• Why high-performers often miss key rehab pieces

• Misconceptions around aging, menopause, and postnatal recovery

• What to expect in a pelvic health consultation (it's not as scary as you think!)

• How both women and men can benefit from taking action now

If you've ever been told to just "put up with it" — this episode is for you. 💬 Want to know more about Emily's work or have a question? Find her on Instagram or Facebook: @taylored_physiotherapy
