So many women are living with pelvic floor dysfunction and have no idea help even exists.

In this episode of Wake Her Up, I’m joined by pelvic floor specialist Jana Danielson, founder of Coochball and co owner of Bloom Better Supplements, for a conversation every woman deserves to hear.

We talk about the deep frustration of women being dismissed, ignored, or never offered guidance when it comes to pelvic floor health. Jana breaks down why the pelvic floor matters far beyond bladder leaks or postpartum recovery and how a healthy pelvic floor impacts confidence, pleasure, posture, core strength, and overall quality of life.

This conversation is about reclaiming power in a part of the body women are rarely taught to understand, let alone care for.

If you’ve ever felt disconnected from your body, struggled with pain, pressure, or intimacy, or sensed that something wasn’t right but didn’t know where to turn, this episode is for you.

Because when women are supported, informed, and embodied, everything changes.

What happens to women’s desire during perimenopause—and why are so many women being dismissed, shamed, or told to accept it?

In this episode of Wake Her Up, I sit down with Andrea Donsky, a 7-time published menopause researcher and co-owner of Morphus Women’s Nutritional & Supplement Brand, to unpack newly published research on women’s libido during perimenopause and menopause—and the findings demand our attention.

📊 The research shows:

• 91% of menopausal women report a noticeable decrease in libido

• 67% report a decreased ability to reach orgasm

These numbers aren’t abstract. They reflect the lived reality of millions of women who feel disconnected from desire, intimacy, and themselves—often while being told by doctors things like:

• “You’re just getting old.”

• “This is normal—take one for the team.”

In this conversation, we explore:

• What actually happens to libido during perimenopause

• How hormonal shifts affect desire, arousal, and orgasm

• The real-life impact libido loss has on women’s identity, confidence, and relationships

• How medical gaslighting keeps women silent and stuck

• The role of spiritual trauma and limiting beliefs in suppressing women’s desire

• Why libido is not just physical—it’s emotional, psychological, and spiritual

And most importantly, we talk about what women can do.

Because if you feel like something’s missing…
it is you.
You are the answer.

This episode is about helping women reconnect to themselves—not fixing something “wrong,” but remembering what’s been ignored, dismissed, or shut down.

We also talk about Andrea’s new book, Nourishing Menopause: Powerful Nutrition and Lifestyle Strategies to Feel Your Best, which offers research-backed, practical guidance for women navigating perimenopause and menopause.

This episode is for the woman who:

• Feels disconnected from her desire or vitality

• Has been dismissed or minimized by medical professionals

• Knows something feels missing—but hasn’t been given language or direction

• Is ready to reclaim herself, her body, and her truth

If you feel like something’s missing, it is you.
And you are more powerful than you’ve been led to believe.

What happens when your body starts changing—and it wakes you up to the life you’ve been living?

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Shannon Klingman, OB-GYN and founder of Lume Deodorant, for a conversation that starts with perimenopause, body odor, and the “why do I smell like onions?” question so many women are quietly asking… and unfolds into something far deeper.

We talk about how women’s bodies change in midlife, why those changes can impact our confidence, and how feeling good in your body is often the first step to chasing the life you actually want. But we also go beyond the science.

Dr. Klingman shares her experience of profound grief after the loss of a child, the sacrifices required to build a dream, and what it really means to believe in yourself when the path forward is uncertain. We explore the truth that every life direction comes with trade-offs—and that choosing yourself doesn’t mean it’s easy, but it can be worth it.

This episode is for the woman who:

• Feels disconnected from her body or confidence in midlife

• Is navigating perimenopause and wondering what the hell is happening

• Is grieving something she never expected to lose

• Knows there’s more for her—but isn’t sure she’s brave enough yet

This isn’t just a conversation about deodorant.
It’s about self-trust, confidence, grief, and the courage to go after your dreams anyway.
