Sex, Self & Pelvic Health: Reclaiming Connection in Perimenopause

Sex doesn’t have to hurt—and in fact, it might even help your pelvic floor. But are Kegels the answer, or are we doing too many? And what’s really behind the so-called “sneeze pee”? 👀

In this enlightening and down-to-earth conversation, Dr. Sam DuFlo, Pelvic Floor Physical Therapist, breaks down what every woman should know about pelvic health during perimenopause. From when to strengthen to when to relax, she helps us rethink how we care for our bodies through change.

We also explore intimacy, self-advocacy, and the power of building a supportive team through this transition. You’ll laugh, you’ll learn, and you’ll feel more connected to your body than ever.

Learn now. Thrive later. Your pelvic floor will thank you.

Rage Part 3 - Losing Grip, Finding Self

Perimenopause and menopause can leave us feeling unmoored—like life is slipping through our hands. Identities shift, energy wavers, and even familiar roles feel foreign.

And then there’s rage. Not irritation, but a deep, full-bodied anger that can feel unsettling—yet also points us toward truth. Rage, when met with awareness, can become a doorway back to the self we’ve silenced or set aside.

In this episode, we explore how to loosen the grip of chaos, reclaim inner wisdom, and see this chapter not as loss but as powerful initiation. If you’ve felt untethered in this transition, this conversation is a reminder: your path back to wholeness begins within.

Rage Part 2 - Uncovering the Root of Rage

Rage is real. And if you’re feeling it during perimenopause or menopause, you’re not alone and you’re not broken. In this episode, we dive deeper into the truth behind the anger so many of us experience during this transition. Your rage isn’t a flaw; it’s a signal. It reflects where you are and what you’ve been carrying.

We’ll explore the emotional, hormonal, and social factors that fuel this anger. The goal isn’t to silence it, but to understand it, honor it, and learn how to move through it with clarity and compassion.

But here’s the good news: By becoming aware of these patterns, we can break free from old cycles and build stronger, more supportive connections.
