A few powerful takeaways from today’s convos 💚⁠
⁠
✅ Delivering on your back isn’t the only option—and it’s not the best one. Sidelying has been shown to reduce tearing.⁠
⁠
✅ You can prepare your pelvic floor for birth. Breathing, pushing, positions—it’s all in my course (link in bio!)⁠
⁠
✅ Painful s*x is common, but it’s not normal. Pelvic physio can help you move from pain to pleasure.⁠
⁠
Your body deserves informed care, support, and confidence. Always. 💚

✨Say yes to more JOY. More laughter. More silliness. More just because moments.

For my birthday this year, I asked my husband to plan something I’ve always wanted to do — a murder mystery party. And let me tell you… it was epic. Big 80s prom energy, hilarious costumes, over-the-top characters, and a group of amazing friends who fully leaned into the fun.

In the middle of busy workweeks, parenting, and everyday life, this was the kind of joy that fills your cup in a whole new way. Good people, good laughs, and memories I’ll hold onto forever.

We talk a lot about health as exercise, nutrition, and rest — but joy? Joy is medicine too. 💚

So here’s your gentle nudge: plan something fun. Out of the ordinary. Maybe even a little ridiculous.
You don’t need a reason — joy is the reason.

This crew….💚

We started running every day at 8am. Beginning with 1k and working our way up to 10. 💪🏼👏🏻

I initially joined the Saturday runs just to move my body. And the support/community was such a welcomed bonus. I knew I couldn’t miss out joining all these ladies on the big race day - so last min I joined. And I’m so glad I did. Supporting women’s mental health seemed like something we were doing all along. Moving our bodies quieted our minds. Showing up for ourselves and each other felt so empowering.

So SO proud of us all

‼️Trigger Warning: Sexual harassment, trauma‼️

On my Birthday, I went to see a new male client for a homecare visit. He called earlier in the week and said he was 75, in severe pain, and unable to leave his house. [He mentioned living with his wife, which made me feel more comfortable.] I felt bad for him—he sounded desperate for help.

But when I arrived, he was walking around the house fairly well, without any gait aid. And red flags started adding up quickly:

🚩 He referenced “videos of me dancing” online that made him feel comfortable inviting me into his home
🚩 He repeatedly asked if I felt comfortable and said he was nervous.
🚩 He lay down in his bedroom, told his wife to stay in the kitchen, and refused to give his Wi-Fi password.
🚩 He kept pulling at his pajama pants waistband, saying, “Don’t worry, you won’t see anything, I just need to relieve pressure.”
🚩 During exercises, he reached for my shoulder to “balance” several times despite me offering my hand
🚩 Twice he asked if I wanted to see him do the stairs to the basement
🚩 He was constantly positioning himself between me and the door
🚩 As I was finishing up, he said: “Would you feel comfortable taking a look down here?” — pointing into his pants.

I said no, packed up, and left.
He followed me to my car and pressed his face to the window.
I locked the door, drove away, called my husband, then called the police.
⸝
I’m sharing this because as a child, I experienced s*xual abuse. I stayed silent. I didn’t know how to speak up —

But now, as an adult, I know better. I know the only way to stop this cycle is to speak out.

And I’m not alone. Too many other women have shared similar stories with me.

Before anyone says, “You just need to be more careful,” let me be clear:

Women already live in hypervigilance.
We plan our exits. Share our locations.
This isn’t about women needing to do more.
This is about men needing to do better — and women feeling empowered to speak their truth.

We don’t owe anyone silence.
We don’t owe anyone comfort at the expense of our safety.

We are powerful in numbers.
Our truth is our strength.
And we are done carrying shame that was never ours. 💚

✨ Show up for the life you want ✨

Not the one you’re settling for.
Not the one you’ve been hustling through.
The one your heart aches for. The one where your body feels good, your energy feels steady, and your days feel yours.

Showing up for that life means more than checking boxes.
It means resting when you’re tired.
Moving your body because you love it, not because you hate it.
Fueling yourself with food and habits that make you feel strong.
It means being honest about what’s not working — and being brave enough to change it.

As women, we’re often taught to care for everyone else first. But your life, your body, your joy?
They matter. And they’re your responsibility.
Not in a heavy way — but in an empowering one. You get to choose what you say yes to. You get to rewrite the story.

At Home Health Physio, we don’t just treat symptoms.
We support women in reclaiming strength, function, and confidence — so you can show up fully in every chapter of your life.

So today, this is your reminder:
💚 You’re allowed to rest.
💪 You’re allowed to feel strong.
🌿 You’re allowed to seek joy, not just productivity.

Show up for the life you want. One breath, one rep, one intention at a time.

We live in a time where information is available faster than ever before… but somehow, it’s also never been harder to know what to actually do.

In health, wellness, parenthood, fitness — even in the pelvic health world — there’s an overwhelming amount of conflicting advice.

➡️ Fast in the morning!
➡️ Wait — don’t fast, it’s bad for your hormones.
➡️ Food before caffeine!
➡️ No, caffeine before your workout!
➡️ Contact naps are essential — soak up those snuggles!
➡️ Don’t hold your baby for naps — you’ll create bad habits!
➡️ Let them cry it out.
➡️ Don’t let them cry — it’s harmful.

No wonder so many of us end up feeling stuck, frozen, and defeated before we even begin.

Pelvic health is no different. You might hear:
🌀 “Just do Kegels!”
🌀 “Never do Kegels!”
🌀 “Leaking is normal after birth!”
🌀 “No, it’s never normal!”

The truth? Everyone is different. What you need might not be what your friend or favorite influencer needs.

Finding a trusted health professional who takes the time to understand your body, your life, and your goals makes all the difference.

📍You don’t have to figure it out alone.
Let’s cut through the noise — together. 💚

✨ If you have a pelvic floor dysfunction — it’s not your fault. ✨

Most of us grew up learning a tiny bit about our bodies in health class… maybe a rushed explanation about periods and a whole lot of emphasis on how not to get pregnant.

But no one talked to us about pelvic floor muscles. No one explained that leaking when you laugh, sneeze, or jump isn’t just something we have to “live with.” No one prepared us for the physical changes that come with birth, hormones, aging, menopause, or just… life.

In countries like France, it’s mandatory to see a pelvic floor physiotherapist after giving birth — before you’re even discharged. Can you imagine what a difference that would make?

Here in Canada, women are often left to figure things out on their own — and unless you actively go looking, it’s so easy to just not know. There’s a huge disconnect between what we experience and what we’re taught. And I truly believe that’s not okay.

That’s why I’m so passionate about pelvic health education. Because I know how empowering it is to finally understand what’s happening in your body — and how much I wish I had known all of this sooner, even before I started my pelvic floor certifications.

You deserve to feel informed. You deserve care. You deserve to know your body.

In my 20s, I spent years ignoring my body’s signs and signals. I had the “no pain, no gain” mentality—waking up at 4:30 AM every day to hit the gym for an hour and a half, pushing through exhaustion, soreness, everything. Rest wasn’t something I gave myself permission to have.

With age (and maybe a bit of wisdom), I’ve learned that rest isn’t weakness—it’s necessary. I’ve also learned my body can’t do the same workouts I used to in my 20’s (well maybe for a few days, but not consistently). These days, I let my body rest when it asks for it. I’ve also changed the way I workout, understanding that our bodies change as we age.

Finding the balance between rest and movement isn’t easy, especially if you’ve spent years tuning out your body. I’m still figuring it out too—and that’s okay. 💚
