If you’re walking around with your shoulders hunched, neck tight, and feeling like your posture has totally collapsed… this episode is your invitation to breathe deeper, open your heart, and reconnect to your core — from the top down.

🌀 You’re doing the breathing. You’re doing the bracing. But your knees? Still unstable, stiff, or sore? That’s not just a leg-day problem — it’s a pelvic floor one. In today’s episode, I’m walking you through how your knees and pelvic floor are deeply connected, and why knee weakness or misalignment could be the real reason you’re still leaking, feeling pressure, or can’t feel strong — no matter how many kegels you’ve done. 💬 “Your knees are messengers, babe. And your pelvic floor is listening.” This is the conversation most pelvic floor programs don’t include — and that’s exactly why I created RESTORE. Because healing your core is about way more than kegels and crunches. It’s a full-body recalibration. 🌿 In this episode, we cover: Why knee pain or weakness might be causing your pelvic floor symptoms The chain reaction between your foot, hip, knee, and pelvic floor What “leaking with squats” is really telling you about your alignment The 3 movement patterns that can build real strength & support Why your breath, glutes & feet matter more than your crunch count 🧠 You’ll walk away with: A deeper understanding of your kinetic chain The real reason sit-ups aren’t solving your symptoms Simple cues for building knee-to-core coordination What to do before you go back to running or jumping   ✨ Next Steps: 📲 Download the Pelvic Floor, Core & More App →  for guided breathwork, mobility, and strength progressions you can do at home. - Download PCM App iTunes: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/pelvic-floor-core-more/id6740750561  - Download PCM App Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pqw8e051gua.pmh8skrtsapp&pcampaignid=web_share 💎 Join RESTORE, my 12-week program that walks you step by step through pelvic floor and core healing — so you can stop leaking, reduce prolapse symptoms, and feel strong again.  https://balancedmomtality.com/restore  🎧 Don’t forget to subscribe to Pelvic Floor, Core & More so you never miss an empowering episode about pelvic floor health, core strength, and whole-body healing.   👉 If this episode resonated with you, share it with a mom friend who needs to hear that healing is possible.

We all know that feeling — when your motivation disappears, your energy dips, and even the simplest tasks feel heavy. You’re not lazy. You’re not broken. You’re just in a funk. In this episode, Dr. Desiree dives into what’s really going on when you feel off, disconnected, or unmotivated — and how to get out of that stuck state without pushing or shaming yourself. You’ll learn how your nervous system, emotions, and energy are all connected, and how to create tiny shifts that bring you back into flow. This isn’t about forcing productivity — it’s about honoring your body’s signals, restoring balance, and reconnecting to yourself. 🌿 In This Episode, You’ll Learn: ✨ Why funks happen — and what your body might actually be trying to tell you. ✨ The science behind being “stuck” in freeze mode or dysregulation. ✨ What not to do when you’re in a funk (hint: it’s not more pressure or guilt). ✨ Simple body-led practices to reset your mind and energy. ✨ How movement, breathwork, and environment shifts help you feel grounded again. ✨ The importance of nervous system regulation in breaking the burnout cycle. 💡 Top Takeaways: 💫 A funk is feedback, not failure — your body is asking for something. 💫 You can’t think your way out; you have to feel your way through. 💫 Micro-movements, grounding, and gentle action rebuild momentum. 💫 Self-compassion and small steps are the fastest way back to alignment. 🧘 Try These Mini Resets: Step outside barefoot for 2 minutes. Feel your feet on the ground. Place your hand on your heart + belly and exhale slowly. Move your body in a way that feels good, not punishing. Change your environment — open a window, shift lighting, or play new music. Write down 3 things that feel light, easy, or joyful today. 🎧 Listen If You’re Feeling: Mentally or emotionally exhausted. Stuck in freeze mode or burnout. Like you’ve “lost your spark” or motivation. Physically depleted or disconnected from your body. ✨ Remember: Healing isn’t always about doing more. Sometimes, it’s about slowing down, listening, and letting your energy rise again — one grounded breath at a time. 💛 ✨ Next Steps: 📲 Download the Pelvic Floor, Core & More App →  for guided breathwork, mobility, and strength progressions you can do at home. - Download PCM App iTunes: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/pelvic-floor-core-more/id6740750561  - Download PCM App Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pqw8e051gua.pmh8skrtsapp&pcampaignid=web_share 💎 Join RESTORE, my 12-week program that walks you step by step through pelvic floor and core healing — so you can stop leaking, reduce prolapse symptoms, and feel strong again.  https://balancedmomtality.com/restore  🎧 Don’t forget to subscribe to Pelvic Floor, Core & More so you never miss an empowering episode about pelvic floor health, core strength, and whole-body healing.   👉 If this episode resonated with you, share it with a mom friend who needs to hear that healing is possible.

When it comes to pelvic floor healing, everyone’s talking about the core, the hips, and the breath… but almost no one is talking about your feet. 👣 In this episode, we’re taking your healing literally from the ground up. You’ll learn how your feet and ankles directly affect your pelvic floor, core, and posture — and why reconnecting to your foundation might just be the missing piece to your healing. Whether you’re dealing with leaking, pelvic pressure, prolapse symptoms, or persistent low back tension, this episode will help you understand why restoring your foundation changes everything. 🌿 In This Episode, You’ll Learn: ✨ How your feet and ankles are connected to your pelvic floor through the kinetic chain and fascial lines. ✨ Why foot stiffness, poor balance, or collapsed arches can create pressure and strain in your pelvic floor. ✨ The hidden effects of modern life — shoes, sitting, and lack of barefoot time — on your pelvic and core health. ✨ Simple, restorative practices to improve ankle mobility, strengthen your feet, and improve posture. ✨ How to integrate breathwork, grounding, and balance for a more stable, supported pelvic floor. 💡 Top Takeaways: 💫 True healing starts from the ground up — your feet are your foundation. 💫 A strong, mobile, and grounded base reduces core pressure and supports pelvic floor balance. 💫 Modern habits can disconnect us from our natural movement and proprioception — but we can retrain it. 💫 Simple daily practices like barefoot time, ankle mobility drills, and mindful standing make a huge difference. 🧘 Try These at Home: Practice standing barefoot and feeling equal pressure through your big toe, pinky, and heel. Do single leg balance and heel raises while focusing on breath coordination. Roll your feet with a small ball to release fascia and increase circulation. Pair your movement with slow, full breaths to connect your feet, core, and pelvic floor. 🎧 Tune In If You’re Experiencing: Leaking, pelvic pressure, or heaviness. Chronic hip, back, or knee pain. Postpartum weakness or instability. Tight calves or limited ankle mobility. Feeling disconnected from your body and movement. ✨ Next Steps: 📲 Download the Pelvic Floor, Core & More App →  for guided breathwork, mobility, and strength progressions you can do at home. - Download PCM App iTunes: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/pelvic-floor-core-more/id6740750561  - Download PCM App Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pqw8e051gua.pmh8skrtsapp&pcampaignid=web_share 💎 Join RESTORE, my 12-week program that walks you step by step through pelvic floor and core healing — so you can stop leaking, reduce prolapse symptoms, and feel strong again.  https://balancedmomtality.com/restore  🎧 Don’t forget to subscribe to Pelvic Floor, Core & More so you never miss an empowering episode about pelvic floor health, core strength, and whole-body healing.   👉 If this episode resonated with you, share it with a mom friend who needs to hear that healing is possible.

If you’ve ever been told to “just strengthen your core” for back pain, pelvic floor dysfunction, or leaking , this episode is your wake-up call. Because here’s the truth → your core doesn’t work alone. It’s part of a powerful kinetic chain: your feet, hips, ribs, shoulders, and everything in between, all working together to create strength, stability, and balance. When one piece of that chain isn’t functioning properly, your entire system compensates. That means your “core problem” might actually start in your feet, hips, posture, or even your breath. 🌿 In This Episode You’ll Learn: ✨ What the kinetic chain actually is — and why it matters for pelvic floor and core healing. ✨ Why focusing only on your abs or “core engagement” can sometimes make things worse. ✨ How poor mobility or strength in your hips, back, or shoulders affects your pelvic floor. ✨ The crucial role of breathwork and rib cage mobility in restoring balance. ✨ How to strengthen your entire system — not just one muscle group. ✨ Why true healing requires integrating posture, strength, and nervous system regulation. 🧠 Key Takeaways: 💡 The body is an interconnected system, not separate parts. 💡 Healing one link (like the core) requires addressing the rest of the chain. 💡 Breath, posture, and mobility are just as important as strength. 💡 Whole-body restoration creates lasting results — not temporary fixes. 🌸 Quote from the Episode: “You can’t heal one link in the chain and expect the whole thing to move freely. When we restore the entire system — breath, posture, strength, and connection — that’s when the magic happens.” ✨ Next Steps: 📲 Download the Pelvic Floor, Core & More App →  for guided breathwork, mobility, and strength progressions you can do at home. - Download PCM App iTunes: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/pelvic-floor-core-more/id6740750561  - Download PCM App Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pqw8e051gua.pmh8skrtsapp&pcampaignid=web_share 💎 Join RESTORE, my 12-week program that walks you step by step through pelvic floor and core healing — so you can stop leaking, reduce prolapse symptoms, and feel strong again.  https://balancedmomtality.com/restore  🎧 Don’t forget to subscribe to Pelvic Floor, Core & More so you never miss an empowering episode about pelvic floor health, core strength, and whole-body healing.   👉 If this episode resonated with you, share it with a mom friend who needs to hear that healing is possible.
