60% of women in jail ——have not been convicted of a crime — they’re still awaiting trial.

Providence House stands in that gap, providing temporary housing for women who would otherwise be incarcerated, transitional housing for families experiencing homelessness, and permanent supportive housing for those rebuilding their lives.

It was my absolute honor to attend their annual benefit dinner last night.

Brooklyn Borough President shared his personal commitment to championing the women of this borough through his continued involvement and advocacy.

But what moved me most was seeing my patients leading the charge in raising funds for Providence House’s newest project — a six-story transitional housing facility that will offer even more women a path forward.

Healing doesn’t just happen in the clinic. It happens when women are given safety, support, and a chance to start again.
Honored to stand with Providence House in their mission to empower women and families. 💜

Weight/Traditional Kegels Or Lunges….those tiny muscles down there are doing the most.

Let’s be real… your pelvic floor does way more than stop you from p*eing when you sneeze.

So…..

Here are 7 areas of concern that might be trying to tell you your pelvic floor needs some love 👇🏽
1. 💧 Leaking when you laugh, jump, or run – Those “oops” moments during vertical jumps or sprints? Not normal — just common.

2. 🚽 Bathroom drama – Straining, incomplete emptying,
? Your pelvic floor may need a tune-up, not another detox tea.

3. 🔥 Intimacy issues – Weak muscles can mean less sensation, and tight ones can mean pain.

Either way, it’s killing the vibe — and we’re not having that.

4. 💪🏽 Core strength + posture – Your pelvic floor is your core’s BFF. When it’s weak, everything else works harder (and not in a good way).

5. 😣 That heavy or “falling out” feeling – Nope, you’re not imagining it. It could be prolapse or muscle imbalance — totally treatable with the right support.

6. 🧘🏽‍♀️ Tension & stress – Your pelvic floor clenches when you do.
Learning to relax it can change your mood and your movement.
7. 👶🏽 Pregnancy + postpartum recovery – Whether you’re growing a baby or healing after, this area deserves all the care (and then some).



✨ Your pelvic floor isn’t fragile — it’s powerful. It along with the rest of you just need the right kind of training.

Let’s get you back to feeling confident, sexy, and strong from the inside out. 💅🏽

Them: Dr. Principal What is the pelvic floor?

Me: Your pelvic floor is like a small
“hammock” made of muscles at the bottom of your pelvis.
It stretches from your p***c bone in the front to your tailbone in the back.

What it does:
Holds up your organs (bladder, uterus, and bowel)

Helps you p*e and p**p by tightening or relaxing

Supports your core — it works with your abs and back muscles

Plays a role in seggs and childbirth

Problems contracting your pelvic floor?
1. Remember to Sit Tall
2. Imagine you are pulling up!!squeeze like you are holding in wind and P at the same time!

If you have pelvic pain you may need pelvic floor relaxation training and not Kegels /Uptraining.

It was cool…..

Week 1 Post-Marathon: Cross-Train, Rest, and Test the Waters

You crossed the finish line—but now it’s time to recover smart.

This first week is all about gentle movement, rest, and reconnecting with your body.

Focus on light, low-impact activities that promote circulation and healing—think walking, cycling, swimming, or yoga.

Prioritize rest and sleep, and use recovery tools like foam rolling and stretching to ease muscle tension.

Most importantly, listen to your body.

If you feel pain or deep fatigue, take it as a cue to slow down.

Recovery isn’t lost time—it’s how you set yourself up for your next strong run.

Someones got to do it

Between NO information and misinformation about pelvic health and wellness women are at a disadvantage

Most of us never learned how our pelvic floor actually works —
and that its NOT just a seggs organ.

so when issues like pain during intimacy or weak pelvic muscles (leaks) come up, many women just assume it’s “normal.” 😔

Because talking about it feels embarrassing, a sin or even taboo, these conversations rarely happen, and women often suffer in silence instead of getting the help they need.

It’s time to break the stigma and start talking about pelvic health. 💬
