    Endometriosis, Fertility & Surgery: An Interview with Dr. Sadikah Behbehani

    How many of your patients might have endometriosis… and no one has said it out loud yet? Because that’s happening. A lot. In this episode, Nicole sits down with one of the only physicians in the country trained in both endometriosis excision surgery and reproductive endocrinology—Dr. Sadikah Behbehani. And this conversation pulls back the curtain on what’s really happening with endo, fertility, and patient care. We cover:  👉 Why endometriosis is still massively underdiagnosed (and often missed—even in fertility clinics)  👉 The difference between suspecting endo vs actually confirming it 👉 Why surgery is still the gold standard—and when it matters most 👉 The role pelvic PT plays (before AND after surgery) 👉 What REIs are often missing—and why 👉 How endometriosis impacts fertility, miscarriage risk, and pregnancy outcomes 👉 When conservative care is helpful… and when it’s delaying necessary treatment Because as pelvic rehab providers… 👉 We’re often the first ones to connect the dots  👉 The first ones to say the word “endometriosis”  👉 And the first chance patients have to get the right care About Dr. Sadikah Behbehani Dr. Sadikah Behbehani is a double board-certified OB/GYN and reproductive endocrinology and infertility specialist with additional fellowship training in minimally invasive gynecologic surgery. She is one of only a handful of physicians in the U.S. with expertise in both fertility treatment and advanced endometriosis excision surgery. She practices at Endometriosis & Fertility Center, where she focuses on complex endometriosis care, fertility preservation, and helping patients build their families. 👉 Website: https://endometriosis-fertility.com/ 👉 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dr.sadikahbehbehani/ Downtraining Masterclass If you want to be able to better help your pelvic pain patients, you need to be working on the nervous system.  And if you don't know the three different types of downtraining....make sure you've taken the Downtraining Masterclass ($47).  👉  www.pelvicptrising.com/downtraining About Nicole & Jesse Cozean Pelvic health is hard.

    Revenue vs Profit - Where you Need to Be

    Revenue is vanity. Profit is reality. And most business owners are focused on the wrong number. In this episode, we break down one of the biggest mindset shifts in business: 👉 Revenue is how much money your business brings in 👉 Profit is how much actually ends up in your pocket And the difference between those two numbers determines everything about your life. This conversation started after a high-level business conference in Vegas where someone asked: “How do you improve profitability in an insurance-based business?” The answer? “If you can’t control your pricing… there’s only one game to play:  you have to ruthlessly cut costs.” And honestly? That’s not a business most of us want to run. We break down:  Why profit margin is the metric serious business owners actually care about  The huge mistake most people make when trying to improve profitability  Why you cannot save your way to a successful business  The difference between finite expense cuts and uncapped revenue growth  How small increases in patient volume massively outperform tiny cost savings  Why business model determines lifestyle more than almost anything else And then we get into the contrast that changes everything: 🏥 Insurance-based model  ~10% margins  ~42 visits/day to make $100k 💰 Cash-based model  ~66% margins  ~3 visits/day to make $100k Same income. Completely different life. This episode is about more than money. It’s about:  👉 Burnout  👉 Freedom  👉 Control  👉 And building a business that actually works for your life If you're ready to build a business with stronger systems, better margins, and more freedom… The Business Accelerator is where we help pelvic rehab business owners grow intentionally—without burning themselves out. 👉 Learn more here:  www.pelvicptrising.com/accelerator About Nicole & Jesse Cozean Pelvic health is hard.

    What Trauma-Informed Care Really Means: An Interview with Krystyna Holland

    Are you truly practicing trauma-informed care… or just assuming you are? Because there’s a big difference. And most of us were never actually trained in it. In this episode, Nicole sits down with pelvic PT, researcher, and educator Krystyna Holland to break down what trauma-informed care really looks like—and where our field is still falling short. And this conversation goes deeper than you expect. We’re not just talking about being empathetic or “good with patients.” We’re talking about:  👉 The intentional choices that either build safety… or unintentionally cause harm 👉 Why “I’m a caring provider” isn’t the same as being trauma-informed 👉 The missing clinical frameworks that should have been part of our training 👉 How even well-meaning clinicians can get this wrong Krystyna shares insights from her current research—including the development of actual, tangible guidelines for trauma-informed care in pelvic health. Not theory. Not buzzwords. Real, actionable practices. We also get into:  Why ongoing consent matters (and how to actually do it)  How intake forms can unintentionally create harm  What to say when a patient discloses trauma  The biggest mistakes clinicians make when trying to “protect” patients  Why trauma-informed care applies to every interaction—not just internal exams  The surprising gap between what patients want… and what providers think matters This episode will likely challenge how you think about your care. And that’s the point. About Krystyna Holland Krystyna Holland is a pelvic health physical therapist, trauma-informed care researcher, author, and founder of Inclusive Care LLC. She specializes in providing inclusive, affirming, and trauma-informed pelvic healthcare and is a leading voice in bringing evidence-based trauma-informed practices into the pelvic health space. She has spoken at major conferences including PelviCon and is currently leading research to develop standardized clinical guidelines for trauma-informed care.

    The Courage of Little Leaps: An Interview with Kyle Hartman

    What if growing your business didn’t require one big leap… …but a series of small, courageous ones? Because that’s how most successful practices are actually built. In this episode, Jesse sits down with Rising CEO coach and practice owner Kyle Hartman to talk about what it really looks like to grow—from a brand new pelvic PT during COVID… to running a 4-clinician practice. And the story isn’t what you think. There was no master plan.  Just a willingness to take the next step. We get into:  Why confidence doesn’t come before action (it comes from it)  How “low-risk” decisions can still lead to big outcomes  The power of starting small—and staying consistent  How to grow a practice without losing focus or chasing every opportunity  What it actually takes to lead a team (and have hard conversations well)  Why grit and courage matter more than experience early on We also dive into how Kyle has intentionally expanded her practice:  A quarterly labor prep seminar that serves the community and drives leads  Her work in sex coaching and counseling, helping patients move beyond pain into pleasure  Consulting with professional athletes on return-to-sport postpartum careIf you’ve been waiting until you feel “ready”… This episode is your reminder: You don’t need a perfect plan.  You just need the courage to take the next step.

    Beyond the Obvious: An Interview with Anna Hartman

    Are you actually treating the right thing… or just what’s obvious? Because those are very different. And if you’re missing the real driver of your patient’s symptoms… No amount of exercises, techniques, or experience is going to fix it. In this episode, Nicole sits down with athletic trainer and educator Anna Hartman to dive into a completely different way of thinking about assessment, treatment, and what it really means to be an effective clinician. Anna brings a unique blend of:  Orthopedic rehab  Osteopathic and visceral approaches  High-level work with professional athletes and Navy SEAL candidates And the result is a perspective that challenges a lot of what we’ve been taught. We cover:  Why assessment—not treatment—is the most important skill you have  The difference between treating symptoms vs finding the true driver  Why “results in 1–3 visits” isn’t about shortcuts—it’s about precision  How ego gets in the way of clinical progress (more than you think)  What it actually means to “trust what you feel” as a clinician  Why repetition—not information—is the key to real skill development This conversation will push you. It might even make you a little uncomfortable. But if you’re willing to question your assumptions and level up your clinical thinking… There’s a lot here. Anna Hartman A huge 'thank you' to Anna for being on the podcast and sharing her wisdom with all of us.  Make sure you're following her @movementrev and find all her courses and resources at www.movementrev.com If you’re looking to become more confident in your assessment, communication, and clinical reasoning… Our Clinical Courses are designed to help you bridge the gap between what you know and what you actually do in the clinic. 👉 Explore all courses here:  www.pelvicptrising.com/clinical About Nicole & Jesse Cozean Pelvic health is hard.

    Is Your Problem Supply or Demand?

    Is supply or demand the bigger problem in your business? Because if you don’t know the answer to that… You’re probably working on the wrong thing. We see this all the time.  Business owners are busy, putting in effort, trying to grow… …but focusing on an area that isn’t actually the bottleneck. In this episode, we simplify everything down to one core concept: supply vs demand. 👉 Supply = how many patient visits you can actually provide  👉 Demand = how many people want to be on your schedule Sounds basic. But most people never apply it to their own business. We walk through:  How to identify whether you're supply or demand limited  Why you’ll always be limited on one side (and why that’s normal)  What to do if you’re supply limited (efficiency, adding time, hiring, or raising prices)  What to do if you’re demand limited (leads, conversion, or clinical buy-in)  How focusing on the wrong side wastes time, energy, and money If your business feels scattered or stuck… This is the lens that brings clarity. Business Accelerator Program If you’re ready to stop guessing and start focusing on what actually moves your business forward… The Business Accelerator is where we help you identify your biggest constraint—and fix it. No more spinning your wheels on things that don’t matter. 👉 Learn more and apply here:  www.pelvicptrising.com/accelerator About Nicole & Jesse Cozean Pelvic health is hard.

    The Real Reason We Created the Prolapse Symposium

    Prolapse is one of the most talked-about conditions in pelvic health right now. And also one of the most misunderstood. In this episode, we take you behind the scenes of the PelviCon Prolapse Symposium — why we created it, how it’s different, and why this topic needed a deeper dive. Because the truth is: Most of us were taught a one-size-fits-all approach to prolapse. And it doesn’t work. Prolapse is one of the fastest-evolving areas in pelvic rehab, with more research, more perspectives, and more complexity than ever before. That’s exactly why we built this symposium differently. Instead of staying within our silo… We brought together: Pelvic PTs and OTs  Surgeons  Researchers  Mental health professionals  And experts from around the world To answer one question: 👉 What does it actually mean to treat prolapse well in 2026? In this episode, we talk about: The origin story of the symposium  Why prolapse was the obvious choice  What most clinicians are still getting wrong  And what you’ll actually learn from attending If you’ve ever felt like prolapse treatment is more complicated than it “should” be… You’re right. Prolapse Symposium Join us for the 2026 PelviCon Prolapse Symposium here:   www.pelvicon.com/symposium About Us Nicole and Jesse Cozean founded Pelvic PT Rising to provide clinical and business resources to physical therapists to change the way we treat pelvic health. PelvicSanity Physical Therapy (www.pelvicsanity.com) together in 2016. It grew quickly into one of the largest cash-based physical therapy practices in the country. Through Pelvic PT Rising, Nicole has created clinical courses (www.pelvicptrising.com/clinical) to help pelvic health providers gain confidence in their skills and provide frameworks to get better patient outcomes. Together, Jesse and Nicole have helped 900+ pelvic practices start and grow through the Pelvic PT Rising Business Programs (www.pelvicptrising.com/business) to build a practice that works for them!
