Welcome to the very first episode of What They Didn’t Tell You: From Core to Floor! I’m your host, Dr. Millie Schweky, a pelvic floor physical therapist who’s done watching women be dismissed, misinformed, or left to Google their symptoms in secret.

In this short and juicy pilot episode, I’m giving you the scoop on what podcast is all about and why I created it.

Because let’s be real: leaking when you laugh isn’t just normal, sex isn’t supposed to hurt, and you definitely shouldn’t be left in the dark when it comes to your hormones, healing, or pelvic floor.

This podcast is your safe, smart, and slightly spicy space to hear the real talk no one else is giving you—rooted in science and intuition.

In this raw, real, and ridiculously relatable conversation, Dr. Millie Schweky is joined by personal trainer and fitness educator Esther Taub to talk about the messy middle, where hustle meets burnout, and self-worth gets tangled up in six-packs and scale numbers.

This isn’t your typical before-and-after story. It’s the truth behind what it really looks like to build a fitness empire, deconstruct toxic body narratives, and choose kindness over control.

In this episode, we dive into:

– How Esther accidentally became a personal trainer (you’ll laugh out loud, promise)
 – The toxic trap of tying worth to how your body looks
 – What pregnancy taught her about slowing down, eating enough, and shifting priorities
 – How gratitude shifted the way she saw her body, stretch marks and all
 – Why self-love without honesty just doesn’t stick
 – The grey space between body positivity and “bounce back” pressure
 – How to start moving your body from a place of care, not punishment

This one’s for every woman who’s ever overtrained, under-ate, or felt like she had to earn her right to take up space. The moms. The strivers. The ones trying to get it right while staying soft with themselves.

✨ This is your permission slip to be kind, honest, and human.

• The difference between peeing during sex and squirting and how to tell
• Why tight isn’t always right: the Goldilocks rule for pelvic muscles
• How pressure to “perform” can actually shut down pleasure

If you’ve ever wondered “am I doing this right?” or felt like your body isn’t following the script you were taught. This episode is full of the science, validation, and real talk you should’ve gotten in sex ed.
