We talk about the awkward questions, the internal work, the pelvic wand, the nervous system connection and most importantly, what changed for her once she realized she wasn’t crazy.If you’ve ever wondered:“Is this normal?”“What even happens at pelvic floor PT?”“Is my problem too weird to bring up?”This episode is for you.Our hope is simple: that hearing one real person’s experience makes it easier for you to take the first step if you need it.In this episode: 🙋‍♀️ A real patient, sharing the real story🧠 “You’re not crazy.” (the words every patient deserves)🪄 What actually happens during treatment💬 Why being heard matters just as much as the exercises🔁 Feeling empowered to manage flares instead of fearing themYou don’t have to fully understand what’s going on to deserve help.
