Pelvic Floor Secrets No One Told You with Dr. Sara Reardon

Today, we’re diving into a topic that’s quietly affecting so many women—and yet, almost no one’s talking about it: pelvic health. If you’ve ever wondered whether leaking when you laugh, painful intimacy, or pelvic floor issues are “part of being a woman,” I want you to know: they’re not. And you’re not alone.

 

The amazing Dr. Sara Reardon joins me—also known as The Vagina Whisperer (don’t worry, we’ll explain that one!). She’s a board-certified pelvic floor physical therapist who’s made it her mission to help women stop suffering in silence and start getting real answers.

 

This conversation is honest, practical, and eye-opening. We talk about why Kegels aren’t always the answer, how the medical system often dismisses women’s pain, and what every woman over 40 needs to know about her pelvic floor. You’ll walk away with clarity, confidence, and answers to questions you didn’t even know you needed to ask.
