Episode 14 (Part 1): Pelvic Floor Realness & Postpartum Recovery

In this two-part episode, we’re getting deep—literally and figuratively. Jhshell and Tempestt are joined by Monique DeRizzio, a pelvic floor and orthopedic physical therapist, for an honest and educational conversation about what really happens to your body after birth.From fibrocystic breast scares to mammograms that don’t tell you much, pelvic organ prolapse, diastasis recti, and the frustration of vague diagnoses like “probably benign,” this episode sheds light on the things too many moms are left to Google.We also talk core breathing, C-section recovery, ligament laxity, working out postpartum, and when (or if) to think about baby number two.
