Did anyone warn you that perimenopause could change your bladder too? 👀

Maybe you're suddenly peeing more often, waking up at night, noticing more urgency, or experiencing leaks that weren't happening before.

In this episode of Potty Talk: Tiny Tips for Your Pelvic Floor, I'm talking about the connection between perimenopause, your hormones, your bladder and your pelvic floor—and why these changes don't automatically mean you just need to do more Kegels.

We'll talk about what might be changing, why looking at your whole body matters, and a simple 3-day bladder check-in you can use to start noticing your own patterns.

Because your symptoms are information. And common doesn't mean you have to live with it. 💗

Join me next Tuesday for another tiny tip for your pelvic floor.

Ever make it all the way home without thinking about your bladder… and the SECOND you put the key in the door, suddenly you have to pee? 🚽

Or maybe it happens when you walk into the gym, get to work, or simply see a bathroom.

This is often called key-in-the-door urgency, and it’s a perfect example of just how connected your brain and bladder really are.

In this episode of Potty Talk, I’m talking about why certain places and routines can become a trigger for urinary urgency, how “just-in-case” peeing can play a role, and why urgency doesn’t always mean your bladder is actually full.

I’ll give you 3 simple tips to start noticing your bladder habits, challenge those automatic urges, and begin retraining the brain-bladder connection.Because sometimes your bladder doesn’t need another bathroom break — it needs a new habit. 💗

🎧 Episode Recommendation: If you’re a frequent “just-in-case” pee-er, go back and listen to Episode 18 Why “Just in Case Pee’ Can Backfire.

💗 Want more pelvic floor support?

The Body Reset Method is my pelvic floor membership designed to help you better understand your pelvic floor, core, breathing, movement and everyday habits.

Follow Potty Talk so you don’t miss a new episode, and if this made you think, “OMG, I do this!” — send it to a friend who does it too.

If you spend most of your day sitting at a desk, your pelvic floor might be feeling it too.

In this episode of Potty Talk, I’m talking about what happens when we stay seated for hours at a time—from tight hips and shallow breathing to tension through your shoulders, jaw, core and pelvic floor.

And no, you don't need to sit perfectly all day.

I'll show you how simple things like getting up more often, changing positions, stretching at your desk and checking in with your breathing can make a difference. These little habits can help reduce tension, support better pelvic floor function and may even help with symptoms like urgency, pelvic pressure and back or hip discomfort.

Because sometimes supporting your pelvic floor isn't about adding another exercise to your day.

Sometimes you just need to get out of your chair.

💩 When most women think about pelvic floor problems, they think about leaking, urgency, or prolapse—but constipation can be a pelvic floor issue too.

If you've been drinking more water, eating more fibre, and still struggle to have a bowel movement, your pelvic floor may be holding more tension than you realize.

In this episode, I'm sharing three simple tips to help you stop straining, improve your bathroom habits, and understand how learning to relax your pelvic floor can make a big difference.

Have you ever stopped to notice how you're standing, sitting, breathing, or where you're holding tension?

Before I teach a single pelvic floor exercise, I teach one thing first: body awareness.

Because here's the truth—you can't change what you don't notice.

In this episode of Potty Talk, I'm sharing why awareness is the foundation of pelvic floor health and how small habits throughout your day can have a big impact on leaking, pressure, urgency, and even how your core functions. We'll talk about alignment, breathing, posture, and where your body may be holding unnecessary tension without you even realizing it.

Sometimes the first step isn't doing more… it's simply paying attention.

Think sucking in your stomach is helping your core? Think again.

So many of us grew up hearing "pull your belly button to your spine" or "keep your core tight." But constantly bracing, gripping, and holding your breath can actually make it harder for your core and pelvic floor to work the way they're designed to.

In this episode, I talk about why your core isn't meant to stay "on" all day, how pressure moves through your body, and three simple ways to start breathing and moving with your core instead of against it.

I'll be back every Tuesday with another Tiny Tip for your pelvic floor. Until then, keep moving, keep learning, and remember—small changes can create big results.

Think a stronger pelvic floor means making it tighter? Not necessarily.

One of the biggest misconceptions I hear is that every pelvic floor problem needs more Kegels or more squeezing. Sometimes, your pelvic floor is actually holding too much tension, and learning to relax is the first step before building strength.

In this episode, I'm breaking down the difference between an underactive and overactive pelvic floor using my Goldilocks and the three hammocks analogy. We'll also talk about how stress, breathing, your diaphragm, and everyday tension can affect your pelvic floor.

If you've been dealing with leaking, urgency, constipation, pelvic pressure, or painful sex, this episode is for you.
