#39. Sex Shouldn't Hurt - How To Improve Pelvic Floor Pain | Rachael Staudt & Dr. Kiersten Harris PT, DPT

Most women are told that pain is “just part of being a woman.” 😣 Painful sex, uncomfortable pap smears, leaking when you laugh, heaviness after childbirth… all written off as “normal.” But what if it’s not?

In this episode of Heal Without Harm, Rachael Staudt (from Hulu’s Are You My First?) and pelvic floor expert Dr. Kiersten Harris, PT, DPT break open a conversation that rarely makes it to the mainstream. Together, they share truths that every woman deserves to know.

Here’s what we cover 👇
✨ The hidden condition most doctors never talk about
✨ Why painful intimacy should never be ignored
✨ How pelvic floor therapy goes way beyond Kegels
✨ The reason your OB/GYN might miss what’s really going on
✨ Surprising times this shows up: first intimacy, postpartum, menopause
✨ The powerful link between stress, trauma, and your body
✨ What healing and hope actually look like

This is not just another women’s health episode — it’s the one that could change how you see your body, your health, and your future.

🎧 Press play, share it with a friend, and join us in breaking the silence.
