Premenopause doesn’t start in your 40s.

It starts the day you get your first period.

In this episode, Danielle sits down with naturopathic doctors Dr. Lisa Dickinson and Dr. Meghan Bennett from Amber Wellness Group to break down what premenopause really is — and why most women completely misunderstand it.

We cover:

• What premenopause actually means

• The difference between premenopause, perimenopause, and menopause

• How hormones shift over decades

• Cycle literacy and long-term health

• Mood, metabolism, and inflammation

• Natural tools to support your body through every phase

This is the women’s health class we should have gotten years ago.

Whether you’re in your 20s, 30s, or 40s, understanding premenopause changes how you see your body — and how you care for it.

Welcome to the Kitty Club.🐾🔥

Yes — men have pelvic floors too.

In this episode, Danielle sits down with pelvic floor physical therapist Dr. Lindsay Dirringer of Bottoms Up! Physical Therapy to explore why the men in our lives may need pelvic floor therapy — and how we can support them.

We discuss:

• What the male pelvic floor actually does

• Urinary leakage in men

• Erectile dysfunction and pelvic health

• Post-prostate surgery recovery

• Core stability and performance

• Chronic pelvic pain in men

• Why so many men avoid treatment

• How partners can support the conversation

Pelvic floor therapy isn’t just for postpartum women.

It’s for humans.

If you have a partner, brother, father, or son — this episode matters.

Welcome to the Kitty Club.

In this episode, Danielle shares her very first experience riding the Emsella Chair — also known as the “throne of tingles” — at Natural Family Health Clinic in Beaverton, Oregon with Dr. Keliiheleua, ND.

This vlog-style episode was recorded before her hysterectomy, and now — post-surgery — the importance of pelvic floor recovery hits even harder.

We break down:

• How one 28-minute Emsella session equals approximately 11,000 Kegels

• How high-intensity focused electromagnetic technology builds pelvic floor strength

• Why you don’t have to undress

• How it improves bladder control

• Core stability benefits

• Sexual wellness support

• Why men benefit too

This is non-invasive pelvic floor strengthening without traditional exercise — and yes, it feels wild the first time.

Pelvic floor recovery is not optional after childbirth, hormone shifts, or hysterectomy. It’s foundational.
