#260: Strengthening Your Pelvic Floor For Better Sexual Wellness Aug 22, 2022

Show notes

You can't change what you don't know. Learn how to have better overall sexual wellness with this expert advice to strengthen your pelvic floor.

Pelvic dysfunction comes in a lot of different shapes and problems. The crazy thing is incontinence could be the least of your worries with dysfunction. Our pelvic floor is the core foundation, literally holding our lower extremities to our core – which means it also can affect everything in our body.

The problem is the pelvic floor gets stressed – a lot. From birthing children to aging, to normal daily activities and even more intense activities like running – the pelvic floor takes a lot of stress. That stress can lead to fatigue and even sagging, which equates to dysfunction.

The good news – it is fixable and even preventable and we talk all about it in today's episode.

#253: Health Made Simple Lesson Two: The Power Of The Mind Apr 08, 2022

Show notes

If you're confused, you're not alone. The health space has been notorious for overwhelm, and it's working in their favor. Complexity likes to keep you stuck in the place of wanting health but not knowing how to move forward. If we're not careful, complexity will crush any form of growth.

I've always had a hard time believing health was as difficult as we made it. Growing up, I watched countless women I love give up their life to a diet promising them a better life, only to leave empty-handed. How could people work so diligently and faithfully and still not accomplish it?

We had to be missing something, and I would make it my life mission to figure it out.

Eventually, I found that we missed health, not because it wasn't possible, but because we were running after it in the wrong direction. Health is not an external equation or system. Health is in you – it's in all of us. Learning how to live out of health is the secret you've been looking for and the answer to doing what you know you should. It makes health simple. But you have to avoid these five health mistakes to make it simple.

Inside Health Made Simple, I teach you how to achieve health for life. It's not a fancy system but a new approach that is personal and relatable, allowing you to experience health today. If you want a sneak peek at what you'll learn inside, check out lessons one and two right here!

In this episode you'll get a preview of the second lesson in this class, The Power Of The Mind. Be sure to check out episode 252 for lesson one.
