Ep 87. What No One Tells You About Exercising with Bladder and Pelvic Floor Issues


Listen Later

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Courtney, a pelvic floor physical therapist who specializes in the connection between physical activity, pelvic health, and bladder symptoms.

We get into her path to pelvic floor PT, why so many women are left in the dark about their bodies, and what needs to change. We talk about the fear a lot of people carry around exercise when they’re dealing with overactive bladder or pelvic floor issues, and why cookie-cutter advice usually makes it worse.

We also cover why advocating for yourself in physical therapy is not optional. You’ll learn how to make sure your goals are front and center, what triggers symptoms during exercise, and why recovery practices are just as important as the workouts themselves.

Dr. Courtney shares how to manage pelvic floor tension without living in fear, the real difference between training and exercising, and why taking a mindful, flexible approach to fitness can make or break your healing journey.

If you’ve been feeling stuck or scared, this conversation will help you get back in the driver’s seat.
