Leakage when you laugh… Dryness that makes sex uncomfortable. Your vagina is telling you something…
Nobody explained to us what happens to our bodies when estrogen drops. Nobody taught us what normal actually looks like and we have accepted it. But here’s the good news. Most of it is treatable.
This week I chat with Dr Sara Rearden, board certified pelvic floor floor therapist and known to many as

Neuroscientist: “We are in the Great Dumbing Down of Humanity.” What every Woman (and parent) needs to hear with TJ Power
The first time I interviewed TJ, I felt like I had learned more about myself in 45 minutes than I had in seven years of therapy.
And I don’t say that lightly.
Because what TJ does so well is take something that feels complicated, like your brain, your habits, your lack of motivation, and make it make sense. In a way that instantly clicks.
In this conversation, we’re talking about dopamine, but not
Why changing the state of your nervous system can change your life (and how to do it)
What if the reason you feel overwhelmed, reactive or completely drained isn’t about willpower at all?
Today’s guest has taught me how to recognise what’s happening in my body and stop trying to think my way through everything… and the results have been incredible.

I just turned 50 … These are the 10 Lessons I wish I Learnt Earlier
So many women get to their 40s and 50s and realise they only know themselves in relation to other people.
What the kids need. What the partner prefers. What the job demands. What the family expects.
But they haven’t stopped to ask themselves what they want in a very long time.
Who are you, outside of what you give to others?
As I approach turning 50, I’ve been thinking a lot about what I’ve learne

The Wakeup Call That Changed My Entire Life
One morning in my 40s, I woke up to my 5 year old asking me “Mum…what happened to your face?”
The night before, I’d been at a friend's 40th birthday and something had happened that went to change the course of my life completely.
What ensued after that was years of trying and failing, trying and failing…but ultimately it led me to where I am now: happier, healthier, stronger, bolder and wiser.
Becoming Stronger, Bolder, Wiser
No one really prepares you for this stage of life.
One day you wake up and realise…
You’re exhausted.
Your body feels different.
Your sleep is off.
Your tolerance for things you used to accept has disappeared.
And you start quietly asking yourself:
“Surely life is meant to feel better than this?”
If you’ve ever had that thought… this podcast is for you.
