Ladies, we just don’t talk about our vaginas as much as we should! 😂 But really, women’s health is so important, especially for when our bodies change after we have kids. This week we interview pelvic floor therapist Sara Reardon aka @the.vagina.whisperer. She's teaching us all about our pelvic floor muscles and why it’s important to keep them healthy. We cover everything from why we can’t hold in our pee after having kids and how to poop correctly, plus what a proper kegel feels like and what we should be teaching our daughters about their vaginas. We don’t talk about vaginal health enough! Get your vag ready for some healthy exercises!

She is a doctor of physical therapy graduating from Washington University in St Louis and board-certified women's health physical therapist.
