I spent the weekend in Orlando at the with experts, advocates, and people living with endometriosis who are all working tirelessly to improve the diagnosis and treatment of this often-unrecognized disease.

There were plenty of great take-aways from the various presentations, panels, and didactic sessions and I’ll share more about them when I can, beyond the info shared here.

I was happy to be asked to facilitate a short vagus session Saturday morning before the start of the day - and I was pleasantly surprised that folks showed up at the crack of dawn for a little somatic practice. (If you were there, please DM me - I’d love to catch up with you here.)

This annual summit has easily become one of my favorite places to connect with a few of my favorite pelvic PT colleagues - , , , and . We get a chance to spend time together, talk shop, and routinely laugh til it hurts. We are part of the “seasoned” pelvic PT group these days - and I feel very lucky that our professional paths have crossed, and that has allowed us to become genuine friends.

It goes without saying that and her team have developed something special in The Endometriosis Summit. Sure, she is known to bring a little NY/New Jersey sass to the summit scene while trying to keep the faculty on task and make sure the advocates and patients in attendance feel seen and heard. But don’t be fooled for one second - her passion for changing the endo experience is at the heart everything she does and this, her life’s work, is truly making a difference.

If you are an endo warrior, my wish for you is to be seen, to be believed, and to get the care you need expeditiously. We’ll keep working to educate and advocate and improve your experience along the way.

I believe in building resilience in our bodies via movement, breath work, nourishment, connection, and rest.

That said, I often fall short in acknowledging that the admiration for “being resilient” is out of proportion when considered next to the systems in place that are forcing some folks to be more resilient just to survive in this world.

I’m talking about chronically ill people attempting to access healthcare, black women seeking to have a healthy pregnancy and postpartum experience, trans folks just trying to safely live their lives, children abused by powerful people who have yet to face any real consequence, humans facing poverty with no access to healthy food or safe communities, and . . . and the list goes on and on.

So when you catch me talking about breathwork or movement or rest to help “regulate” the nervous system, please know that I understand that all the breath work, movement and rest in the world is not going to completely heal the folks that the system is purposefully keeping down.

My hope is that whatever I share here can, indeed, help everyone in some small way - and that those among us that have the capacity to resist, to fight, and to change the systems. . . will do just that.

Come and learn a little bit of the nitty, gritty about the breath and why it’s such a big deal.

This hour long masterclass is meant to explain the connection of the breath to so many of the common pelvic health challenges we experience - bladder urgency, constipation, pain, etc. - while also covering why understanding the breath can be so helpful in improving your overall nervous system state.

Comment breath below and I’ll send you the link to check it out!

The breath, like the beating heart, is one of the few constants that is with us through the entirety of our lives.

We take upwards 24,000 breaths a day; if I’m doing the math correctly, that means we’ll take as many as 600,000-700,000 million in a lifetime.

That’s a lot of breaths.

I talk an awful lot about breathing in both my treatment space with patients and in the studio space with folks who come to practice yoga.

That is because I have come to know that even a little focus on the breath most often leads to positive changes in the body and the mind.

If learning about the breath is intriguing to you, stick around as I share some breath-related content over the next couple weeks.

Consider that content a primer for my March 12th live, virtual Breathing Explained Masterclass. It is geared toward health care providers, coaches, teachers, or anyone else who would like to do a deep dive of the breath and walk away with a handful of breath work strategies for a daily practice. Info can be found in my bio or in my stories.

That will kick off an on-going, live (in-person or virtual) breath work offering on Fridays at noon - details forthcoming.

In the meantime, lengthen long through your spine, inhale slowly and completely through the nose, and sigh a big exhale out the mouth.

How did that feel?

Stay graceful, folks.

Vulvas, vaginas, and urethras love estrogen.

When estrogen tanks during perimenopause and menopause, those tissues can get irritable, resulting in atrophy, pain, incontinence, and chronic UTIs.

UTIs can lead to cognitive changes, kidney infections, and a life-threatening, all-encompassing infection known as sepsis.

Please help change the accepted notion that “old ladies just get UTIs” by encouraging all the mature women in your life to speak to their care provider about accessing a local vaginal estrogen cream (i.e. getting a prescription, filling it, and using it).

P.S. It is safe and effective for all, even folks with a history of cancer. And, it can be started at any time.

I sincerely hope this holiday season has been a joyful one for you.

And if it hasn’t, you aren’t alone.

If that sounds like you, I’m wishing you feelings of ease and contentment instead.

I wrapped up my “I’ve Always Wanted to Try Yoga” Series with a cohort of amazing humans who laid bear their challenges and little wins along the way.

Much of the feedback I got back toward the end of our time together was about the breath work strategies we practiced in each of our classes together.

That prompted the development of an upcoming FREE offering called “Breathe With Me”.

Ain’t no body looking for more to shove into their December schedule, so this offering will occur the second week of January and will include a short but sweet breath work strategy sent straight to your inbox.

It might just help you ease into 2026 after what seemed to be a very questionable 2025.

If you’d like to be included in that strategy send, comment BREATHE below and I’ll send the sign up link right over to you.

Wanna learn something specific? Go ahead a let me know about that, too!

How you experience pain and your ability to overcome a functional challenge has a lot to do with your perception of pain and your feelings about its presence.

If you have been told (usually by a well-meaning care provider) to significantly limit or stop doing a particular activity you love to do or one that helps you participate more fully in your life, I’d encourage you rethink that recommendation - and seek out a professional (yes, PT’s and OT’s are professionals) who can help you work thoughtfully toward/back to that activity.

Encouraging folks who are experiencing pain or other symptoms to become fearful and less active just promotes decreased strength, weak bones, declining cardiovascular health, as well as diminishing brain health.

That “bad” back, knee arthritis, prolapse, or osteoporosis aren’t going to be the thing that kills you; the decreased mobility and inactivity are.

So, start moving in little ways that are tolerable and build up from there, slow and steady. Find a movement pro who is experienced in helping usher people through some thoughtful programming and can help pivot when needed.

It’s never too late (and you are never too far gone) to start!
