Imagine a disease more common than diabetes and Alzheimer's combined, but that's so taboo nobody even wants to discuss it. That's incontinence, and it's about time we get past the embarrassment and start feeling comfortable speaking up.

It's why November has been dedicated as National Bladder Health Awareness Month, to reduce the stigma associated with bladder issues and to help patients feel confident enough to reach out for help and find treatments that can literally change their lives.

Today's guest is Aleece Fosnight, a board-certified physician assistant specializing in incontinence conditions and a medical advisor for Aeroflow Urology, and she's dedicated her career to helping people overcome their reluctance to talk about their bladder conditions. She offers important insight and guidance so you can find your voice and develop a relationship with your provider that will allow you to get on the path towards a life without leaks.

There's a misconception out there that incontinence is usually something that happens as you get older. Hannah is here to tell us that it's something that can happen at any age. She shares her story about how she developed severe overactive bladder after a surgery in her early 30s, how it nearly derailed her career, and how she finally found relief after she had nearly given up hope.
