First, I want to acknowledge that with everything happening around abortion rights, one can feel overwhelmed and helpless. I hope you know you're not alone and your body is YOUR body. My body, my damn choice. Now to get into the episode:

Laura Meihofer is a Doctor of Physical Therapy who specializes in pelvic health. For over a decade, Laura has worked tirelessly to earn her license, practice patient care, and publish research at the world-renowned Mayo Clinic — and now her private physical therapy practice, Laura Meihofer LLC.

Highlighting topics like vibrators, periods, menopause, postpartum, incontinence, pleasure, pain, and so much more, Laura is lifting the lid on formerly taboo topics and demystifying the pelvic floor. Pelvic floor dysfunction is extremely common! And, seeking information or professional help about pelvic floor conditions should not be shameful.

Laura's mission is to empower all individuals with pelvic floor concerns through evidence-based resources, movement, and products.

In this episode, we discuss the effect of hormones and birth control on one's mental health, period and premenstrual symptoms, sex expectations, pelvic pain, and more.

Happy #ThriveThursday! In this episode, I give some personal updates and share my thoughts on "doing it all." I also touch on the pressure of needing to do the "next thing" and the importance of listening to our needs, practicing self-compassion, and celebrating every little win.

Erica Cuni, known as "The Burnout Professor," is a Stress and Burnout Expert, Integrative Performance Coach, Professional Speaker, Social Media Creator, and Fellow Survivor.

She is the founder of "The C.U.N.I.(Create Undeniable Natural Impact) Method” and is a former Trauma Psychotherapist, Clinical Director, and Adjunct Faculty at Central Connecticut State University.

Her mission is to help make the mental health field more effective, accessible, decolonized, and non-stigmatizing. This approach is what she wished she had - a guide to thrive consciously without pathologizing her for doing her job, life events, and the intergenerational trauma she was carrying around with her.

Erica found her mission in 2014 after being hit by a Mack Dump Truck (literally) while driving to work and having her life fall entirely apart over the following 14 months.

In this episode, we discuss the connection between trauma and burnout, how burnout can show up in the body, the difference between burnout and chronic stress, diagnosis and medication, dealing with burnout recovery, self-care and mindfulness, and more.
