Hey Friend!

It is not only my birthday week, but also @Podcasthon week where over 1,000 podcasters are donating an episode to charity. So this week I am having a very special guest on the show to talk about a foundation that is very important to me. Sally Fellers is the founder of the David Fellers Healing Art Foundation, and also my grandmother. She started the foundation after the death of my uncle David Fellers, who spent his life trapped in his disabled body, yet radiated love and happiness. The foundation helps bring medical and lifesaving support to those less fortunate, mainly in Nicaragua and Guatemala. Medical equipment like wheelchairs, walkers, medications and even mattresses and ramp installations are among the types of support that my grandma and her foundation have been able to provide. But that doesn’t happen without the help of donations from generous people like you of course. So please, for my birthday go listen to this interview to learn more from my grandma about how giving to others will bring you more abundance than you can ever imagine.

If you feel pulled to donate to the David Fellers Healing Art Foundation or want to learn more please do so at the website below: CLICK LINK TO DONATE BELOW %100 PERCENT PROCEEDS GO TO CHANGE A LIFE!!

I hope this inspires you to go make someones day better and give a little more than you take!

Hey Momma,

Are you pregnant or planning to get pregnant and you’re curious about this whole pelvic floor thing? Or just wanting to make sure you are doing all the right things so you and baby can stay healthy, but maybe you’re worried about exercise and if you will do the right or wrong things? Wondering what the best types of exercises are or maybe you are getting ready for delivery and wondering when you should see a Pelvic PT like me? These are all questions many women have and it can be very frustrating when you start looking online for what Dr Google thinks.

Inside this episode I dive into what I do as a Pelvic Floor PT for pregnant women and how I can help them feel strong and confident as they navigate exercise and movement throughout pregnancy. I help take the guess work out of your prenatal fitness routines and make sure you know what your body needs and how to prepare for birth and optimize your recovery. Get an idea on when it is the best time to see a Pelvic PT during pregnancy and make sure that you are getting the support you need and are training appropriately… pregnancy is the ultimate marathon after all.

These are strategies that I talk about inside my online virtual program, Restore, which is hosted on my FREE App Pelvic Floor, Core & MORE!

Hey Friend,

Have you been practicing your breath work and deep core breathing? Hoping to help heal back pain, or pelvic or tailbone pain? Or maybe pain with sex? Or maybe you just know that breath work is the key to healing and restoring a strong core system. Either way, everyone should be doing breath work, especially if they have any pain or pelvic floor or core dysfunction. I have talked on many episodes about balancing and lengthening tight muscles using the deep core breathing techniques. Using the diaphragm, the breath gets pushed deep into the core system and should be filling from the bottom up. This helps lengthen and massage the tight spaces in your core and can truly help resolve so much pain with just using this deep core breathing, especially in different yoga positions I have talked about in other episodes.

Inside this week’s episode I am diving much deeper into the breathwork and how I instruct women to get more specific and intune to their bodies as they continue this practice. So that they can not only release tightness, but begin to feel the micro changes in the breath and what is expanding so that you can start to feel and compare when they might not be expanding as much as they were and catch the tightness before it causes symptoms like pain and leaking. We can use the breath to be very proactive and preventive by identifying these imbalances and getting more specific on where your body's tightness is. These are strategies that I talk about inside my online virtual program, Restore, which is hosted on my FREE App Pelvic Floor, Core & MORE!

RESTORE is my first 10 wk online signature program hosted inside my new platform that will be an APP soon Pelvic Floor, Core & More!

Hey Love,

Just checking in, how has it been going so far this year in terms of working towards your goals? Did you start the year strong, only to “fall off” and give up already feeling like a failure? Or are you still kicking along and chipping away towards those goals you set just over a month ago? Now is the time to really be honest with yourself if you haven’t been able to show up the way you initially hoped. It is never too late to start working towards your goals, but it is also never too early. It can feel defeating when we know we haven't been able to stick to the plan we set out for ourselves. But that doesn’t mean we can’t do it. It means we need to reevaluate.

Inside this week's episode I encourage you to reevaluate your goals, your plan, your mindset and your actions. The worst thing we can do is set out a plan that isn't sustainable or goals that we don’t value or maybe your goals and your plan are find and actually it is your mind or your actions that are sabotaging your progress. Either way, inside this episode were going to get real and honest with ourselves and either stay on track or get back on track! Remember you have a whole group of motivated and inspiring women in your corner ready to cheer you on and hold you accountable! Inside my Restore Program my founding members have access to a weekly group coaching call so that we can all show up and ask questions, get personalized feedback on exercises or lessons and mostly HOLD EACH OTHER ACCOUNTABLE! They also have access to a private community inside my Pelvic Floor, Core & More App where they can post wins, exercise check ins and ask more questions outside of the group coaching calls. This ensures that you are not falling off even if you had a rough week and you get the grace you need to not feel guilt or shame when you do have an off week. As women and moms especially, it can be so challenging to show up for ourselves to exercise or workout. So we need to build a community to support and empower each other!

Hey Lady!

Have you ever wondered what the status of your pelvic floor is? If you know how to kegel correctly? Or maybe if you have tightness and kegels could make things worse? Or if you have prolapse that you should be keeping an eye on? These are all things that I am checking for as a pelvic floor PT during the internal assessment, among many other things! However, I find that these are things most women have never been told because their pap smears or other pelvic assessments done by a Gynecologist are not looking or assessing the function of your pelvic floor. While they may inform you of prolapse or atrophy in your muscles, they are mostly looking for infection, healing, abnormal tissue and bigger red flags. This is why many women come to me and are so amazed by what they learn from the internal vaginal assessment and many times we are finding and explaining the cause of their pain or symptoms for the first time.

This is why I believe every woman should get an internal vaginal assessment so they can better understand the basic status of their pelvic floor and so they can compare throughout their life. It isn’t always easy to get into a pelvic floor PT and so I also think it can be very valuable to know how to perform your own self- assessment periodically, especially if you notice symptoms showing up or getting worse. While doing an internal assessment on yourself isn’t as thorough as getting one by a Pelvic Floor PT, it is so much better than nothing! Just reconnecting and becoming aware of the sensitivity, tightness or level of strength that you can feel at the vaginal opening and perineum can be a game changer! That is why I also help my Restore members perform and interpret their own self-vaginal assessments!

Hey Love,

Have you wondered how to make those kegels transfer to not leaking during a jumping jack or while running or chasing down your kids? Wondering what's the best way to progress your exercises so that you can keep getting stronger without doing too much and causing more prolapse, pain and leaking? This is a very common and valid concern as the worst thing you could do is go too hard and cause injury, leaking or prolapse when you never had it before that. That is why I am so excited that my New App Pelvic Floor, Core & More is Launching SOON! My first program inside this platform is going to be an 8 week RESTORE program that walks you through the steps, taking the guesswork out!

Inside today’s episode I am giving you some ideas on when and how to progress safely and effectively, but also what my progressions and weekly breakdown will look like inside of the Restore program. It is so important to make sure that you are not just doing kegel, but connecting the whole kinetic chain to work together so that you can restore your whole body, starting at the core! It is more than just adding weights and reps. Is it functional? Is it realistic? Is it progressing you towards the bigger higher intensity exercises like running, jumping, and HIIT training you are so anxious to be able to do? The Restore program not only will help guide you through safe and effective workouts each week, but will also give you a weekly lesson to help you understand your body and how to heal and prevent issues in the future! There is also a weekly group coaching call for accountability, trouble shooting and any questions you may have to help tailor the program more individually to you!

If you are interested in learning more about the Pelvic Floor, Core & More program and want to get in on the Beta stages for BIG discounts… then click the link below to APPLY TODAY! Launching will begin next week, but spots are limited so if you think you want to join DON’T WAIT and schedule your Discovery call today! Click the link below!

Hey Girl,

Also Stay tuned for my Pelvic Floor, Core & More APP, which will host my NEW RESTORE 8 week program, guiding you through the very foundational basics of pelvic health and healing, all the way to return to sport and higher level exercise! Of course New Years brings up tons of “new programs”, especially on social media and its hard to know what is high quality and what is just crap. You can’t trust that every program is designed with the knowledge and expertise of a specialist and many personal trainers claim their "women's health experts” simply because they had a child before.

That’s why inside this week’s episode I am helping you understand what to look for when you are deciding to try a new workout or fitness program or see a Pelvic PT, because even all PT’s are not all the same and lack the approach that your body needs! This can be very scary because you want to trust the person or program you are investing in, but if you haven't done your research, you might be frustrated at the end wondering why you didn’t get the results you were hoping for. Inside my Challenge and my New programs, I not only will provide you will 8 weeks worth of lessons and exercise progression, but also a private community and group coaching calls so that you can have individualized guidance and accountability so that you WON’T FAIL!

The Pelvic Floor RESET CHALLENGE started yesterday 1/13/25 but it’s not too late to join and all replays and homework will be available on the facebook group page linked below!! I will be showing up on my private and free facebook group to chat about how and what we need to do to plan and prepare to be a BEST SELVES AND CRUSH THIS YEAR!

• Day 1 I talked about mindset and goal setting
• Day 2 will be all about the major foundations of our Health (sleep, hydration, diet, stress)
• Day 3 will all about pelvic floor with a Pelvic Floor 101 chat
• Day 4 I will discuss kegels and if you need them or not and how to do them
• Day 5 will be more about functional strengthening beyond kegels and how to connect and restore your core (beyond the pelvic floor) and a sneak peak inside my Pelvic Floor, Core & More APP!

There is no better time to decide to invest some time into yourself and get your body AND mind ready for the challenge ahead! Because let’s be real… It is going to be a challenge but it will be worth it and I will be in your corner making sure you have everything you need to succeed!

If you want IN on the 5 Day Pelvic RESET Challenge then go over to my facebook page listed below, join and comment on my challenge post and stay tuned each day of the challenge as the most active participants will receive a prize!
