We've been honored to guest on many podcasts over the years!

"Today's episode is about helping midlife women support and heal the life-altering and personal issues of pelvic floor dysfunction and prolapse. We're talking about peeing your pants and more.

Women in midlife are finally at a point in their journeys where they have children who are gaining more independence. This can also mean more stability in their careers and more ability to turn energy towards taking care of themselves again, which can lead to so much healing at such a crucial time.

Get ready to hear tips, practical advice, and actionable steps to support healing your pelvic floor."

"Have you ever noticed that the more stressed you feel, the more your body seems to rebel — tight hips, bladder leaks, or that constant clenching you can’t relax?

Today we’re diving into the science behind that with Jenn Lormand from Tighten Your Tinkler.

She’s breaking down how stress hormones, fight-or-flight responses, and even low estrogen levels all team up to make pelvic floor problems worse — and, more importantly, what you can do to finally reset your body’s stress response so you can feel strong, calm, and in control again."

"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, we dismantle the shame around pelvic health and lay out a functional path forward that goes far beyond “just do more kegels.” 

What you’ll learn

• Why leaking is common—but not normal—and what it’s trying to tell you
• The limits of isolated Kegels and what a functional approach looks like
• How breathing, posture, sitting, and constipation ramp up pelvic issues
• Staging prolapse (1–4), what’s realistic to “functionally heal,” and red-flags
• Painful sex in midlife: estrogen, lubrication, tone, and boundaries that help
• Fascia’s surprising role (yes, your bladder “talks” to your neck)"

"Pee leaks, painful sex, and back or hip pain in perimenopause are far more common than women realize, but that doesn’t mean you have to just live with them. 

In this episode you'll learn:

1. How to distinguish what’s normal versus abnormal in pelvic floor changes during perimenopause.
2. Why misdiagnosis is common and how to advocate for yourself with confidence.
3. Simple, holistic strategies to strengthen your pelvic floor, reduce pain, and restore functional health without invasive devices.

Tune in and discover how to reclaim your body, dignity, and confidence—no shame, just solutions."

"Learn more about your Pelvic Floor + Prolapse in this episode, including: 

✅ What prolapse actually is — and how it develops over time 
✅ How perimenopause and menopause contribute to these problems 
✅ Why Kegels and core bracing are not the answer 
✅ Why leaking during workouts, sneezing, or laughing is not normal — and why you shouldn't ignore it

✅ BONUS: 5 tips to reduce your risk of bladder infections in midlife 

🎙️ This is one of the most important conversations I’ve had on the podcast — and one I truly believe every woman needs to hear."

"Liz & Becca chat with Christina Walsh, co-founder of Tighten Your Tinkler, about all things pelvic floor.

From post-birth trauma to unresolved core issues, Christina breaks down why traditional advice like “just do Kegels” is failing women.

They dive into how unresolved tension, nervous system dysregulation, and breath mechanics are major root causes of symptoms like leaking, painful sex, prolapse, and core instability.

This conversation gives you hope and an actual path forward. Tune in and learn how to finally restore your pelvic floor and core — from someone who’s helped thousands of women do just that."

"In this episode, we cover:

• What exactly is the pelvic floor and why it matters in your 40s+
• Common symptoms of a weak pelvic floor (i.e. bladder leaks, heaviness, pain, urgency)
• How hormone changes in perimenopause impact your pelvic floor
• The connection between pelvic floor health and intimacy
• Why Christina says kegels aren’t the answer (and what to do instead)
• Simple, non-invasive strategies to restore strength and function—at home

Whether you’re dealing with leaks, pressure, prolapse, or pain during sex, this episode is for you!."

"What if your pelvic floor symptoms were your body’s way of asking you to slow down and listen?

In this episode, Dr. Melissa chats with Physical Therapist Christina Walsh, a pelvic floor expert and co-founder of Tighten Your Tinkler, about how healing the pelvic floor goes far beyond kegels.

Christina shares her deeply personal journey, why so many women are still struggling in silence, and how pelvic health is connected to everything from your nervous system to your creativity.

This is a heart-opening conversation filled with hope, real talk, and simple tools that will leave you feeling empowered in your body."

"Honestly, if you've given birth (either vaginally or via c-section), this is for you!

"We'd be lying if we didn't admit we've giggled over our guest’s business name.

It's actually downright brilliant. Equal parts funny and straight to the point.

Jenn Lormand is bringing some fire today mixed with humor, hope, and healing.

She's a published researcher, exercise physiologist, and author.  AND she's been living and thriving with Stage 2 prolapse for the last ten years. 

After being told an invasive surgery was her only hope following her third birth, Jenn was determined to create her own solution. Together with her Tighten Your Tinkler cofounder (Christina Walsh, PT), Jenn developed a new movement-based protocol that allowed her to reverse her pelvic floor symptoms.

The Tinkler mission is to inspire hope and healing – helping women to heal holistically so they can show up fully present for their lives through at-home programs that are non-invasive and kegel-free."

"Did you know that peeing more than 10x per day can be a symptom of pelvic floor dysfunction?

My guest today is Jenn Lormand of Tighten Your Tinkler. We get into all the nitty gritty details on how to heal and maintain a healthy and pain-free, leak-free pelvic floor right from home."

"Christina shares her evolution from treating orthopedic injuries to becoming a specialist in women’s pelvic floor health, a passion ignited by her own post-childbirth challenges.

She sheds light on common pelvic floor issues like leaks, frequent urination, back pain, and prolapse.

Christina breaks down the myths surrounding Kegels, explaining how functional strength training is a far more effective and sustainable approach to healing, and she also shares practical, everyday tips to alleviate strain and promote pelvic health.

We also discuss the emotional and physical toll these issues can take, the risks of ignoring early symptoms, and the importance of listening to your body.

Many women fear the cost of treatment and therefore avoid it, not realizing the steep price they’re already paying to manage their symptoms – both financially and in the impact the pelvic floor has on the rest of the body. 

 This episode is packed with valuable insights, actionable advice, and resources to help you reclaim your confidence and comfort. Don’t miss it!"

"This wouldn't be a podcast about postpartum healing and recovery if we weren't including conversations about pelvic physical health.

Today's episode will share exactly how anyone can access pelvic floor care through the revolutionary Tighten Your Tinkler online program.

In this episode, we're sharing:

- How to know that you can benefit from pelvic floor care. 

- Why the typical guidance 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."

"My friend Jenn Lormand joins us on today's episode to chat about what every mother should know about her body.  It's pure fire!

The pelvic floor isn't top of mind when you take your baby home from the hospital but it is something that every mother has adjusted to postpartum.

If you've had back pain, pee urgencies (or leaks), pain during sex - TUNE in for this episode and prepare your mind to be blown!

Jenn shines a light on the myths of practicing kegel exercises & WHY they don't work, and what actually works based on her research and background as an Exercise Physiologist, with a whole lot of real perspective and personality!"

"If you have ever wondered how much pee my bladder holds overnight while camping… then you’re in for a treat 💦😁.

Christina Walsh from @tighten.your.tinkler joins us to talk all things pelvic floor. 🤩

Moms, in particular, often report that it limits their ability to be present with their family, especially during outdoor excursions where restrooms are scarce.  But fear not, because Christina is here to guide you towards regaining your confidence and quality of life."

"🙋‍♀️ Do you pee when you sneeze?

🙋‍♀️ Do you have pain during sex?

Listen in for Jenn's Top 3 Pro-tips to optimize your baby-feeding ergonomics, and spare yourself lots of future issues, from shoulder injuries, to carpal tunnel, to back pain and increased pelvic floor issues too."

"I am 35 weeks pregnant w/my fourth and have been PEEING MY PANTS upon sneezing, so naturally I wandered over to Tighten Your Tinkler for holistic, healing guidance.

⭐ In this episode, Physical Therapist Christina Walsh and I talk about:

- what organs sit in the pelvic floor,

- all that can go wrong, and

- what to look for both visually and feeling-wise,

- as well as some things you can do RIGHT NOW - whether pregnant, postpartum or just in general motherhood - to strengthen your pelvic floor and avoid and heal issues, like:

- diastasis recti, painful penetration, pooping and peeing issues, and so much more."

"In addition to sharing her personal experience with birth injury and breastfeeding, Jenn drops some super valuable knowledge bombs on Breastfeeding Ergonomics.

• The #1 positioning mistake Jenn sees nursing moms make that causes more pee leaks, urgency, and other pelvic floor problems.
• How lack of shoulder stability from improper technique can lead to the dreaded “neck hump” and/or rotator cuff injuries.
• Three easy-to-implement techniques moms can start using today to correct their feeding posture (plus how moms should hold their phone to prevent a rounding of their back).

On this episode, Jenn has SO MUCH for you, dear listener."

"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 - you can have a better quality of life again!

Christina and I talk about:

🔸 what new parents should expect when it comes to sex after baby

🔸 solutions for the different types of common issues

🔸 kegels (how they can contribute to pelvic floor dysfunction)

🔸 the balance needed for a strong pelvic floor 

🔸 and a variety of ways to address dysfunction.

I think you’re going to get so much out of this conversation."

"Do you have friends who will have wildly uncomfortable conversations with you?⁠
⁠
If not, I have good news. My guests today, Jenn Lormand and Christina Walsh, otherwise known as the Tighten Your Tinkler girls are here to help us understand our nether regions. ⁠

They are the friends you want when you’re trying to figure out if peeing while sneezing or coughing is normal (PS no, it’s common but not normal) or how to pull an all-nighter. ⁠
⁠
And by "all-nighter" I mean go all night without using the restroom."

"What do we need to know about supporting and healing the pelvic floor?  Is it super complex?

This week, we’re speaking with Christina, one of the creators and trainers of Tighten Your Tinkler. Christina and her business partner Jenn are a Physical Therapist and Exercise Physiologist duo who are dedicated to helping mothers heal their pelvic floors in a way that keeps physiology in mind.

The name is funny, but the results are serious!  I’ve personally been through their program and I’m currently incorporating their exercises into my daily life, and I absolutely love what they’re doing."

"Having a weak pelvic floor may be affecting your life, your marriage, and your ability to feel comfortable and confident in your body.  Here are some of the topics we explore today:

*How you can feel broken when things “down there” aren’t functioning like they should (or aren’t reliable!)

*How hip pain, back pain, neck pain, bunions and posture issues can all connect with a weak pelvic floor!

*We define prolapse–a condition that affects many women and comes in numbered stages.

*Jenn assures Heather that peeing when you cough, sneeze, or while exercising isn’t a normal and necessary part of aging–and that there is a way to stop it without surgery!"

"Yes, we’re going there. It’s all about bladder control, painful intercourse and a “droopy bootie” in this week’s podcast. If you have any pelvic problems AT ALL - including constant tightness in your hips and back - you’ll want to take a listen. There’s a non-invasive solution that can get your lady business back to normal. I love when we can find more holistic approaches to health that don’t involve extremes! My guest experts are going to tell you all about it and it doesn’t involve kegels (which they don’t recommend)."

"In this episode, we are thrilled to be joined by the two founders of Tighten your Tinkler, Jenn Lormand (Exercise Physiologist) and Christina Walsh (Physical Therapist). 

Tune in for an interview with Dr. Alex where they will explain how most pelvic problems can be overcome by strengthening the muscles in the area to work as a cohesive team.  You will also learn how supporting pelvic floor health will be life-changing!"

"Aging and motherhood are beautiful in their own right. But sometimes things in your "nether-regions" are not like they used to be, especially after having kids. Joining me today is Exercise Physiologist, Jenn Lormand, as we explore breakthroughs in women's health and pelvic floor function. Gone are the antiquated days of endless kegels, and hello to holistic and research-based solutions to restore bladder and pelvic dysfunction and reignite intimacy and dignity."

"Over 52 million women deal with an embarrassing issue: PEE leaks… when we sneeze, when we laugh, when we exercise.  There is no shame in this because it is SO COMMON. But we aren’t talking about the FIX for this enough! You do not always need to turn to medications, surgery or KEGELS.

Today on listen up I interview Pelvic Floor Experts Jenn and Christina on what causes this, how to prevent and reverse it, and why they are “anti Kegel”

Learn what you can do other than Kegels to help with this issue, where the idea came from, & why so many women suffer from this."
