Helen speaks to Holly Puddephatt, a content creator from Leeds, host of the podcast <a href="https://pod.link/1676847952">Me, Myself & Mum Life</a> and mum to toddler, Thea. Holly discovered she had pelvic organ prolapse in October last year, two years after her daughter was born.

It's a massive part of my life...and I was reading all this stuff online saying you can't run, you can't do this or that. And for me, that would be like ripping my legs off. That's how it felt.'
