Description
We sit down with Lauren Ohayon, founder of Restore Your Core, for a deep and raw convo on pelvic floor health, movement as storytelling, and healing from the inside outβwithout falling for the toxic wellness trap.
Lauren shares her journey from expat childhood to journalism to a yoga-teaching, pelvic-floor-educating powerhouse. We dive into the truth about flat-belly culture, how social media shapes our self-worth, and what your pelvic floor actually needs to feel safe, supported, and strong.

How movement can be a form of storytelling
Why βhealingβ isnβt about being told everything youβre doing wrong
How to tell if your pelvic floor might be the root of your symptoms
Sex, stress, postpartum, and whatβs really going on down there
