Welcome to Pelvic Floor, Core & More — the podcast where nervous system healing meets pelvic floor rehab. I’m Dr. Desiree Cassell — pelvic floor physical therapist, mom of 3, and your guide to embodied, empowered healing after birth. (And don’t worry, you don’t have to have birthed a child or even be a mom to benefit from this show. This is here for ALL Women, mom or not) Here, we go way beyond kegels. You’ll learn how to: 💫 Heal pelvic floor symptoms like leaking, prolapse, and pain 💫 Rebuild core strength without making symptoms worse 💫 Move through postpartum with confidence and connection 💫 Use breath, fascia, and nervous system tools for real, full-body restoration 💫 Shift from surviving to thriving in your body — all during your daily routine After healing my own prolapse, leaking, and diastasis (that no one warned me about), I made it my mission to make sure no woman is brushed off or left behind again. Because these symptoms might be common — but they are NOT normal. 🎧 Subscribe for real-talk, expert support, and soul-led strategies to feel strong, safe, and free in your body again. It is time to get you out of those pads and back to loving movement again.... yes even jumping on the trampoline. Put your earbuds in, grab a glass of water, roll out your mat, and let’s connect💫 Learn ＞ www.balancedmomtality.com Connect or Inquiries About Wellness Consults＞ PTDes@balancedmomtality.com Community＞ Facebook＞ @thebalancedmomtality Instagram＞ @the_balanced_momtality Women’s Health & Wellness | Prenatal Fitness | Postpartum Recovery | Pelvic Floor Exercises | Holistic Whole Body Healing | Breathwork | Fascia Release | Emotional Embodiment | Restore Your Core | Somatic Healing | PregnancyCopyright 2023 All rights reserved.

    114- The Postpartum Plan No One Tells You About// What to Do in the First 6 Weeks Postpartum That Actually Supports Healing
    Jul 21 2025

    In this episode of Pelvic Floor, Core & More, we’re diving into what most postpartum plans miss completely: how to actually support your healing in the first 6 weeks after birth. (Even with some exercises… yes you don’t have to wait 6 weeks to move your body.) These exercises are gentle and intentional

    This isn’t about “getting your body back” — it’s about coming back into your body.

    So if you’ve ever wondered: 💭 “What can I actually do to help myself heal right now?” 💭 “Do I just wait until my 6-week checkup?” 💭 “Why do I still feel disconnected, heavy, or unstable?” — this episode is your gentle, practical guide.

    You’ll Learn: 🌀 Why the first 6 weeks really matter for long-term pelvic floor & core health 🌀 What not to do that might set you back (hint: skip the kegels) 🌀 Breath, fascia, and nervous system practices you can start right now 🌀 How to reconnect with your body in small, powerful ways 🌀 What to watch for: signs of healing vs symptoms that need support

    113- Choosing yourself Inside the Chaos of Postpartum and Motherhood
    Jul 18 2025
    In this episode of Pelvic Floor, Core & More, we’re talking about something that doesn’t get enough space in healing conversations: ✨ What it really means to choose yourself — in the middle of the mess. Motherhood, healing, and life can feel like a swirl of demands. And in that chaos, so many women lose the one thing that keeps them grounded — their own voice, needs, and nervous system. If you’ve ever felt like there’s no space for you… this is the episode that gives you space back. You’ll Learn: 🌿 What “choosing yourself” really means beyond bubble baths and checklists 🌿 How to know if you’re stuck in self-abandonment or override 🌿 Simple nervous system tools to reconnect with your body daily 🌿 How to build small rituals of self-honoring, even when everything feels loud 🌿 Why healing doesn’t require perfect stillness — just presence Healing isn’t about waiting for a quiet moment — it’s about learning to choose yourself even in the mess. This episode is your reminder that you don’t need a perfect schedule, the right mindset, or to feel “ready” to begin healing. You just need to say yes — to you. Inside this vulnerable, fire-filled episode, I share: Why so many women delay healing — and how it shows up in the body The subtle ways you’re already choosing everyone else over your own well-being How to build self-trust again, one breath at a time A few small ways to claim your healing today (Body Check, breathwork, guided app tools) What happens when you stop waiting and start restoring Keywords: nervous system healing, choosing yourself, self-trust, pelvic floor support, healing while busy, RESTORE program, somatic healing, embodiment Resources Mentioned: 💖 RESTORE — My 12-week healing program for your core, pelvic floor, and nervous system 📲 Pelvic Floor, Core & More App — Breathwork, movement, and nervous system support in your pocket 🎙️ Listen to: "What to Do When You Feel Disconnected From Your Body" – a perfect companion episode to this one Let’s Stay Connected: 💫 Begin Your Journey with RESTORE & Continue the Full Embodiment Inside The Empowered Core Collective!

    112- The Hidden Habits Making Postpartum Healing Harder// Why Doing "Nothing" Before 6 wks Postpartum Is a Bad Idea
    Jul 16 2025

    In today’s episode of Pelvic Floor, Core & More, we’re diving into the sneaky, normalized postpartum patterns that silently sabotage healing — and no, I’m not talking about exercise.

    From holding your breath while lifting the car seat to collapsing into your core while feeding your baby, these everyday habits are creating pressure, disconnection, and pain in your pelvic floor and core system.

    We’ll unpack:

    • What’s really causing your symptoms to linger (even when you’re trying to heal)
    • How breath, posture, and nervous system regulation play a bigger role than crunches ever could
    • Small, doable shifts that make a huge impact in your daily healing

    And if you’ve been told “this is just how it is after baby,” this is your permission slip to say no more.

    You’ll learn: ✨ The 5 most common habits that stall postpartum healing ✨ How to stop unintentionally making your symptoms worse ✨ What your body is trying to tell you — and how to listen gently ✨ Real-life tools for breathing, softening, and creating safety in your core
