If Kegels worked, I’d have quieter DMs…

For years, “Do your Kegels!” has been the go-to answer for every va**na problem.

Leak a little? Kegels.
Pain with intimacy? Kegels.
Bladder issues? More Kegels.

Kegels are muscle contractions...and while they help hold things in, they’re not so great when you’re trying to let things in.

If your pelvic floor is already tight or overactive (hello vaginismus 👋), more Kegels can make things worse.

What your pelvic floor really needs is balance...the ability to move, stretch, relax, and coordinate.

So no, it’s not about doing more.
It’s about doing what’s right for your body.

Because hole health is whole health.

Some pains don’t go away...until someone truly understands your story.

One of my patients came to me
after months of struggling with post-partum pelvic pain.

She had tried everything: exercises, stretches, different providers…
but the pain kept coming back.

She felt stuck, frustrated, and exhausted.

We started by listening first…really understanding what her body was telling us
and how her daily life impacted her recovery.

From there, we created a step-by-step plan that made sense for her, not a generic program.

The result? Four sessions later, she was moving freely, feeling strong, and finally back to being herself.

Her story is a reminder: lasting change doesn’t come from just trying harder—it comes from being heard, understood, and guided in a way that works for your unique body.

Hole Health is WHOLE YOU.

When “bad periods” aren’t just bad. 💔

Imagine this—
You’re 14, doubled over in pain, and everyone says, “That’s normal.”

You do what you’re told: see the doctor, take birth control, move on.

Fast forward 20 years…

You’re 35, wanting a baby, and suddenly someone says, “Oh, by the way—you have endometriosis.”

Eight. Years.
That’s the average time it takes for a woman to be diagnosed.

Eight years of pain brushed off as “just cramps.”

Eight years of missed work, cancelled dates, and pushing through because you have to.

Endometriosis isn’t just a “period problem.”

It’s a social, emotional, and physical one that steals time, energy, and joy before anyone calls it by name.

If you’ve ever felt dismissed, unheard, or confused about your pelvic pain...

When your bladder pulls a trick instead of a treat…

it can feel awkward, frustrating, and just plain unfair.

Sneezing, laughing, or even jumping off the couch shouldn’t come with a side of leaks…
but for many women, it does.

Your pelvic floor is like a hammock supporting your bladder, uterus, and re**um.

When it’s weak or out of sync, leaks, urgency, or heaviness can sneak in.

Pregnancy, childbirth, aging, or hormonal changes can make it worse…

✨ Common doesn’t mean normal.
✨ You don’t have to just live with it.
✨ With the right support, you can reclaim your confidence and your freedom.

We are the light… but why do we keep setting ourselves on fire to keep everyone else warm?

This Diwali, while lighting diyas with my little one, I realized how much this festival mirrors our lives as women.

We clean our homes before Diwali...but rarely clear the clutter inside us.

We light lamps to remove darkness...yet keep carrying burnout, guilt, and pain in silence.

Diwali isn’t just about celebration… it’s a reminder.

💛 To honor our own light, even when life feels messy.
💛 To care for our bodies the way we care for our homes...with love and intention.
💛 To remember that we’re not just lighting lamps...we are the light.

So this year, don’t just decorate your home...nurture your whole you. ✨

I talk about what’s “off-limits.”

P**p. Awkward s*x. Menopause. Or***ms.

It’s not just TMI... it affects everything.

Take Taylor: she refused to accept “this is just how it is.” She advocated for herself through injuries, surgeries, and doctor after doctor — and it paid off.

The right diagnosis. The right treatment. Two Paralympic medals. 🏅🏅

Her story proves it: when you refuse vague reassurances, you take back your body, your health, and your life.

Leaks and pantyliners… now on prime-time commercials?!

Yep, that’s where we’re at.

Post-menopause changes in your pelvic floor, lower estrogen, and weaker muscles can make leaks more common than we’d ever like to admit.

But here’s the good news — it doesn’t have to be your story.

What if tension from years ago is still affecting your body today?

A patient came in struggling with urinary incontinence, something she’d dealt with for years that got worse after having her baby.

The root causes? Old childhood habits, birthing trauma, and postpartum anxiety had her tightening muscles she didn’t even know were affected.

We created a simple, doable plan for her to follow at home and taught her how to relax and massage those hard-to-reach muscles.

Now, progress is happening — and she finally feels empowered in her own body again. 💛

True healing starts at the root, not just the symptom.
Because Hole Health is Whole Health.

If you’ve been holding on to tension you didn’t even realize was there, it’s time to find out why.

Low estrogen doesn’t just mean hot flashes and mood swings…

It can change your pelvic floor too.

When estrogen drops during perimenopause or menopause,
your pelvic tissues lose strength and elasticity.

That can show up as:
⚠️ Weaker pelvic floor muscles
⚠️ Bladder leaks or urgency
⚠️ Vaginal dryness
⚠️ Discomfort with intimacy

These changes are common…
but they are not your “new normal.”

With the right support…
you can restore comfort, confidence, and connection.

👉 Book a FREE discovery call today (link in the comments) if you’re navigating perimenopause or menopause and noticing symptoms or want clarity on what’s actually happening in your body.

💬 Have you noticed how your body shifted with menopause or perimenopause?

10/14/2025

Sometimes it feels like just being female is a health hazard.

You’re working twice as hard to prove yourself, ignoring pain, pretending you’re fine — because the world tells you to “toughen up.”

But what if thriving didn’t mean hiding?

What if healing started with being heard?
