A few months ago in my IG story, I reposted something saying how kids should know about the pelvic floor...and people lost their absolute minds. I was attacked in the DMs, saying how I was perpetuating teenage sexual activity and increasing incidence of early promiscuity. Blew my mind.
Then I got to thinking about the teenagers I've worked with in the past, how they were finally heard...and finally helped! I took it a step further and thought about my adult clients who had been dealing with pelvic health issues since they were teenagers and how much work we did together to overcome decades of suffering in silence.
From all of that thinking, this episode was born. I think we need to reframe how we think about parts of our bodies like the vagina, the vulva, and the pelvic floor. A lot of us fear what we don't know or understand, and it's no secret that the pelvic floor is a topic of conversation that not many "get." We end that today!
This episode is not meant to tell you how to raise your kids but it IS going to challenge you about how you think, talk, and approach issues with your own body so that your kids do not have to suffer with things for longer than they need.
