Customer Reviews
Love love love this podcast!
This is one of the most informative and uplifting podcasts I've listened to. These ladies make health easy and positive - their key message is to love and look after your self which makes the changes they recommend all about long term lifestyle choices over the "you're not good enough as you are" messages that perpetuate so much mainstream health and exercise advice.
Vulvodynia/vaginismus episode
I can’t find any podcasts dedicated to vulvodynia, so I listen to the single episodes that different women’s health podcasts put out. They all cover the same introductory information, but listening to them makes me feel less isolated. This one, for as far as I felt like listening, talked to people who don’t have chronic pain about the unusual and interesting problems caused by vulvodynia and vaginismus. It was not helpful.
Great program!
This is a podcast that is full of relevant and varied information relating to women's health and wellbeing. Love this podcast!!!
