What Do Your Feet Have to Do with Your Pelvic Floor? w/ Natalie Headdings


Listen Later

In today's episode we’re joined by Natalie Headdings — a movement educator, doula, and pelvic floor specialist whose work blends deep anatomical understanding with practical tools that help people reconnect with their bodies.

Natalie has spent years guiding women through breath, movement, and curiosity — and her insights around the pelvic floor are truly game-changing.

In this conversation, we explore the deep connection between foot function and pelvic floor health — and how modern lifestyles, sedentary habits, and footwear choices can quietly erode the strength and awareness we’re meant to have in these foundational systems.

We unpack how breathing, balancing, and simply paying attention can start to restore what’s been lost — especially for women navigating pregnancy, birth, or postpartum recovery.

This is a powerful, educational, and empowering conversation — one that reframes foot pain and pelvic floor dysfunction not as lifelong conditions, but as trainable and recoverable outcomes.

What You’ll Learn:

  • Why foot health is foundational to pelvic floor function
  • How shoes, sitting, and stress affect your deep core
  • Breathing patterns that support pelvic floor rehab
  • How balance training accelerates recovery
  • Misconceptions around Kegels and postpartum healing
  • Practical ways to integrate foot and pelvic floor care into daily life
