In episode 38 of the MyoHacker Podcast, Karindy speaks with Kelley Rubio, BS, RDH, QOM founder of My Myo My Health about the intersection of myofunctional therapy, women’s health, hormones, and airway-centered care. They explore how hormonal shifts during pregnancy, perimenopause, and midlife influence oral health, TMJ symptoms, breathing patterns, sleep quality, and nervous system regulation. The conversation highlights how myofunctional therapy and breathing techniques can support women experiencing stress, anxiety, jaw tension, and airway challenges during hormonal transitions. Kelly highlights the importance of self-care, education, and community support in women’s health, encouraging women to advocate for their bodies, seek answers, and take an active role in their long-term wellness. Key Takeaways Hormonal shifts during perimenopause, pregnancy, and midlife directly impact airway, oral health, TMJ function, and nervous system regulation. Pregnancy hormones can increase risk for gum inflammation, airway changes, and oral tissue sensitivity. TMJ symptoms in women may be influenced by hormonal fluctuations and connective tissue changes. Breathing techniques and myofunctional therapy support stress regulation, sleep, and whole-body function. Consistent self-care and nervous system support are essential during hormonal transitions. Community and education are critical because women’s hormone health is still under-researched. Women deserve to advocate for answers, care, and support during every life stage.

In episode 36 of the Myohacker Podcast, Karindy talks with Casey Masalehdani, Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP) and mother, about her journey into myofunctional therapy, pediatric speech therapy, and whole-child development. Together, they explore how engaging therapy strategies improve outcomes for children with speech delays, orofacial myofunctional disorders, and sensory processing differences. The conversation also addresses the emotional and practical realities of parenting a child with developmental delays, even as a trained clinician. Casey discusses how clinical intuition, parent coaching, and interdisciplinary collaboration help uncover root causes behind speech, feeding, airway, and behavioral challenges. Casey explains why making therapy fun and meaningful increases participation, home practice carryover, and long-term success. She shares how self-regulation, nervous system support, and sensory integration directly impact therapy progress and child behavior. This episode is especially valuable for parents and pediatric providers who want to better understand the connection between regulation, sensory needs, and functional development.

In episode 34 of The Myohacker Podcast, Karindy speaks with Courtney Mallally, a mother and Craniosacral Fascial Therapy practitioner, about her son Everett’s journey after being diagnosed with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) following a traumatic birth.   Courtney walks listeners through the early days in the hospital, the devastating prognoses she was given, and the pivotal moment when she chose to hold both hope and responsibility for her son’s healing. From that point forward, she began exploring a more integrative, terrain-based approach to brain recovery; one rooted in ancestral nutrition, intentional movement, connection with nature, nervous system regulation, and hands-on therapies like Craniosacral Fascial Therapy (CFT) and photobiomodulation.   Throughout the conversation, Courtney shares the foundational pillars of her Child Brain Regeneration Protocol, a free resource she created for families navigating pediatric brain injury and developmental challenges. Together, Karindy and Courtney explore feeding and global development considerations, the role of intuition in caregiving, and the emotional reality of parenting a child with complex needs.

In this episode, Karindy Ong, MA, CCC-SLP and Dr. Caitlin Keller PT, DPT dive into the essential and often overlooked role of pediatric pelvic floor therapy. They explore how pelvic floor tension and relaxation directly impact not only toileting challenges like constipation and bedwetting, but also airway health and function.

Are we truly connected with our children, or is modern life pulling us apart? In this episode, Karindy Ong and Nicole Archambault discuss the importance of emotional connection, body awareness, and the parent's role in fostering resilience and regulation. Disconnection is becoming more common, leading to emotional struggles in children and families. Nicole shares practical strategies to strengthen bonds, regulate emotions, and create a safe space for growth—both in therapy and at home. Before we establish changes in nasal breathing, oral rest posture, and sleep, we must establish connection. A key takeaway from the conversation is that you don’t need to completely change your life to create a meaningful impact. Small, intentional steps can lead to lasting change.
