Hi friends! I’m SO excited about today’s podcast episode because it’s packed full of info and tips for ya’ll. I’ve been a fan of MoveU and Brittney Ellers on Instagram for quite a while, so I was thrilled when she said she’d come on the show and chat about pelvic floor health.

She drops so many knowledge bombs in this episode and I hope you’ll check it out!
