Bridging the Gap: Taryn Hallam on Surgery, Pelvic PT, and Honest Prognosis

Few people in the pelvic health world have shaped the field like Taryn Hallam. With decades of experience as a clinician, educator, and researcher, she has a unique ability to bridge research and clinical practice.

In this episode, we cover:

• How Taryn’s research background in Sydney shaped her pelvic PT lens
• Why bridging the gap between surgeons and therapists matters for better outcomes
• The importance of prognosticating honestly (and how imposter syndrome gets in the way)
• Her take on controversial practices like crunches during pregnancy and flow stop exercises
• Why lifelong learning, mentorship, and case studies are essential to growth in pelvic health
