Welcome.

Thanks for having me, Kelly.

Your book is beautiful, not just the cover, but really, it's really comprehensive, and it's got

something in there for everybody.

Yeah, and that's what I wanted.

You know, I thought about when I was writing the book or the idea for it came about, it was like I could write a book about menopause and pelvic floor health. I could write a book about, you know, pregnancy and birth. But I felt like there wasn't even the 101 guide on the pelvic floor. And that's why it is so comprehensive. I was like, we just need a starting point for women to better understand this part of their body.

So I hope that that's what it is doing for women. I love that. Watch out. This is how you end up writing more books. And then there's a menopause one. And then there's a postpartum one. And then I didn't say enough about this. So there's that one. And you're like, that's how you have a series. Yeah. I'm in my fourth trimester of book writing right now.

So I'm like coming down of like,

okay,

it's all over. that one. And you're like, that's how you have a series. Yeah. I'm like, I'm in my fourth

I know. Well, that's the beauty of it is that I think that, you know, I just finished my last

floor tour event yesterday and there were seven stops. And to meet so many people who the readers, the followers, and for just them to continuously say, like, this was so amazing. Thank you for doing this. And as someone who's love language, words of affirmation, I'm like, oh, my goodness, this is so wonderful. And I'm thrilled. It's out in the world. I feel like I sent a kid off to college and like do good in the world. And just, you know, so it's nice to have two years of work kind of really just be out there living and in people's hands and homes. Yeah. I mean, I think of like my books are like, they're kind of like a baby a little, my baby And like, for me is like, don't tell me my baby's ugly. I'm like, oh, my baby's not ugly. My baby's beautiful. But, you know, it's like, that's a better mindset than me. I'm like, I love my baby. I hope you think that my baby is cute. I spent a lot of time making my baby. Yeah, and your babies are
