In this episode of The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast, Ginny Yurich sits down with clinical exercise physiologist and researcher Jenn Lormand, who shares her own intense story of birth trauma, prolapse, and being told she'd likely need repeat surgeries. But then she discovered a non-invasive path that helped her heal and build the program that's helped so many other women, too. You'll learn what prolapse actually is, why Kegels can sometimes make things worse, how hormone changes can change pelvic tissue, and simple “start today” ways to be kinder to your pelvic floor like better bathroom mechanics, reducing chronic strain, and thinking preventatively long before symptoms show up.

Urinary (and yes, bowel) leakage isn't “just part of getting older”—it's a signal from your core and pelvic floor. In this straight-talk episode, physical therapist Christina Walsh, co-founder of Tighten Your Tinkler, joins me to dismantle the shame around pelvic health and lay out a functional path forward that goes far beyond “just do more Kegels.” We cover what's really driving leaks, pressure, prolapse, urgency, and painful sex in midlife; how breath, posture, fascia, and daily toileting habits influence symptoms; when conservative care is enough—and when devices, pessaries, or surgery may be appropriate. Christina also shares practical first steps you can start today (hello, decompression and diaphragmatic breathing), plus how to talk with your partner without pushing through pain.What you'll learnWhy leaking is common—but not normal—and what it's trying to tell youThe limits of isolated Kegels and what a functional approach looks likeHow breathing, posture, sitting, and constipation ramp up pelvic pressureStaging prolapse (1–4), what's realistic to “functionally heal,” and red-flagsPainful sex in midlife: estrogen, lubrication, tone, and boundaries that helpFascia's surprising role (yes, your bladder “talks” to your neck)Links & resourceshttps://www.tightenyourtinkler.com/  (listener code Michele for $50 off)https://www.instagram.com/tighten.your.tinkler/ Tighten Your Tinkler free quiz https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/tinklerquizIf this helped, share it with a friend, rate the show, and hop on my weekly newsletter for midlife health, fitness, and no-BS motivation._________________________________________1:1 health and nutrition coaching or Faster Way - Reach me anytime at mailto:mfolanfasterway@gmail.com If you're doing “all the right things” and still feel stuck, it may be time to look deeper.

DESIGN YOUR FAMILY'S UNIQUE HOMESCHOOL THAT YOU'LL LOVE! https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/blueprint     Homeschooling is about way more than school academics. It's creating a relationship that welcomes open dialogue and discussion about anything and everything. One of those topics should be our bodies and how we can take care of them well. And that includes our pelvic floor.  Today's guest is Jenn Lormand of Tighten Your Tinkler and we are specifically focusing on sharing all about pelvic floor health with your daughter.  Many of us weren't taught about this and had to quickly learn after a health crisis or bothersome symptoms. Our goal in this episode is to equip you with some actionable information so that you can begin to teach your daughter how to be proactive in her health. As we mention in the beginning of this episode, it is rated G, but you may want to listen with ear buds or when your children aren't around so that you may gather information and dispense it as is appropriate for your family. ♥ Leigh   TIGHTEN YOUR TINKLER WEBSITE: https://www.tightenyourtinkler.com/  COURSE (USE CODE LITTLE50 TO SAVE $50!):  https://www.tightenyourtinkler.com/signatureprogram 5 Minute Root Cause Quiz (for moms): https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/6YGTYNF Resource page: https://www.tightenyourtinkler.com/support Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tighten.your.tinkler/ YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@tightenyourtinkler         CREATE YOUR HOMESCHOOL FAMILY'S HOME TASK SYSTEM https://www.littlebylittlehomeschool.com/tidyhome    LITTLE BY LITTLE HOMESCHOOL CONFERENCE TICKETS:  https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/conference   GET EXCLUSIVE MENTORSHIP WITH LEIGH https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/mentorship   SIMPLIFY YOUR MEAL PLANNING https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/meal       Website -  https://www.littlebylittlehomeschool.com Newsletter -  https://littlebylittlehomeschool.subscribemenow.com/ Community - https://www.facebook.com/groups/homeschoollifestylecommunity  Follow - https://www.instagram.com/littlebylittlehomeschool/ Connect - info@littlebylittlehomeschool.com   Listen to these related episodes: 34.

Do you pee when you sneeze?  Experience back pain, frequent UTIs, or have to get up in the middle of the night to pee?  Think you have a small bladder? Whether you experience one or all of these, they are all related to your pelvic floor health.   Some research shows that every year after the age of 35, women lose 2% of their pelvic floor muscle strength with aging and hormones.  If at 35, we're leaking, what will it be like at 65?   If you have had babies, rebuilding your pelvic floor health is so important. My special guest is Christina Walsh, a published researcher, a Physical Therapist, and the cofounder of Tighten Your Tinkler, is sharing how to rebuild our pelvic floor health.  Enjoy this episode, Mama, and share it with a friend.

This wouldn't be a podcast about postpartum healing and recovery if we weren't including conversations about pelvic physical health. We'll continue advocating that EVERY WOMAN who gives birth needs pelvic PT! Today's episode will share exactly WHY that is, and more importantly, how anyone can access it through the revolutionary Tighten Your Tinkler online program. (See below for links!). In this episode, we're sharing: How to know that you can benefit from physical therapy and why you need to see a therapist that specializes in postpartum pelvic PT. Why the guidance typically given by conventional medicine practitioners to do 100 kegels a day is NOT what women need to regain their pelvic health. The connection between pelvic health and emotional well-being and why every mother should make her pelvic health a priority, regardless of whether or not she's had a "traumatic" birth experience. Christina Walsh is a Physical Therapist & New Orleans mama of 2. Known together as the “Tinkler Ladies”, Christina and her business partner Jenn Lormand have a combined 36 years of experience supporting women through pelvic floor problems, prolapse, diastasis recti, and more. The Journal of Women's Health Physical Therapy featured their holistic protocol that helps women mitigate symptoms (think no more pee leaks, back pain, or painful sex) WITHOUT kegels or internal vaginal devices. Today, the Tinkler ladies are on a mission to help women feel empowered and hopeful in their healing journeys.Access the Tighten Your Tinkler Resources: Tighten Your Tinkler®️ Signature Program: https://www.tightenyourtinkler.com/signatureprogram (use code MARANDA for $50 off!) IG: @tighten.your.tinklerYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@tightenyourtinklerFREE 90/90 Decompression Position (to relax back, hips, pelvic floor, and nervous system):  https://www.tightenyourtinkler.com/backandhipreliefFREE 5-minute Root Cause Quiz: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/6C9SJ36Come hang out with us on Instagram!Feeling inspired and ready to learn more about how you can actively revolutionize postpartum care?

Sometimes after baby your “O” can stand for ouch! Yes, today we're talking about sex after baby. For many pelvic floor dysfunction turns what was once a pleasurable part of life into something painful. This pain doesn't have to be permanent though and with the help of a PT you can have a better quality of life.  On today's episode of Yoga| Birth | Babies I speak with Christina Walsh a physical therapist specializing in integrative manual therapy and co-creator of Tighten Your Tinkler to take a very deep dive (pun intended) into the pelvic floor. If you've been listening to the podcast you might be surprised that we're talking about “tightening” the tinkler because you've likely heard me rant against over tightening. However, Christina beautifully talks about the balance needed for a strong pelvic floor and what she means when she says “tighten.” Christina and I talk about what new parents should expect when it comes to sex after baby, solutions for painful sex, kegels (how they might contribute to pelvic floor dysfunction) and a variety of ways to address dysfunction. I think you're going to get so much out of this conversation.
