Ep 109. How Much Water Should You Drink for a Happy Bladder?


Listen Later

If you’re constantly planning your life around bathroom access, I see you. Not long ago, I would’ve missed half the night standing in line for the bathroom. But last week? I danced front row at the Jonas Brothers and rocked out at Aly & AJ without peeing once.

And no, I didn’t just get lucky. I had a strategy.
In this episode, I’m breaking down how hydration plays a massive role in bladder health, and why most people are getting it totally wrong.


Here’s what I cover in the episode:

  • What actually happens in your body when you drink water
  • Why restricting fluids to pee less usually makes things worse
  • How hydration protects your bladder lining (and keeps urgency down)
  • The signs you’re underhydrated or overhydrated
  • IC-safe hydration options (teas, foods, electrolytes, etc.)
  • Tips to sip smarter without triggering urgency


I’ll also share:

  • My go-to hydration formula
  • How to know if your pee is “normal”
  • The hydration mistake I see most IC clients make
  • What to do if drinking water hurts or triggers frequency
