Welcome to Episode 82 of  The Emotional Eats Podcast!

 In today’s episode, I’m thrilled to welcome back Sarah Sudheimer, physical therapist and pelvic floor specialist for Part 4 of the Midlife Gut Health Secrets Series

Sarah previously joined me in Episode 59 for an in-depth conversation about pelvic floor health. This time, she helps us connect the dots between pelvic floor health and common midlife gut issues like constipation, diarrhea, and bloating.

Sarah shares the mechanics of how the pelvic floor works, explaining how dysfunction can lead to symptoms such as fecal incontinence, chronic constipation, and even urinary issues. She shares fascinating insights about the connection between stress, the parasympathetic nervous system, and how tension in the pelvic floor can prevent proper bowel movements. 

Sarah also introduces practical techniques, including diaphragmatic breathing, biofeedback, and even proper pooping mechanics using tools like a Squatty Potty, to help improve gut and pelvic health.

We also discuss how lifestyle factors like exercise—especially walking and yoga—play a crucial role in maintaining both gut and pelvic health. Sarah shares tips on integrating yoga poses like child’s pose and happy baby into your routine, and how managing stress through intentional breathing and relaxation techniques can support the entire digestive system.

If you’ve ever wondered how your pelvic floor might be contributing to gut issues—or how to address them—this episode is packed with actionable advice. From understanding how to relax your muscles to ensuring you’re setting yourself up for success in the bathroom, Sarah provides thoughtful, expert guidance for women navigating midlife health challenges.

You won’t want to miss Sarah’s expert advice, her personal anecdotes, and her invaluable tips for addressing gut health issues through pelvic floor care. Whether you’re struggling with constipation, diarrhea, or just curious about this overlooked area of health, Sarah’s insights will empower you to take action.

What They Say

Discover What My Clients Are Saying

“You have a unique and special way.”

The most significant thing that changed in my work with you was that my all consuming, soul-killing obsession with food was relieved through gentle healing and integration. I knew in my heart that you really cared about me and had my best interests at heart which helped me to re-connect with my own ability to love and support myself. When that part felt back in balance I think the food piece also re-balanced itself. Another incredible gift you offer is a super well resourced tool box! There was also plenty of deep diving into core wounding and reviewing old stories, all of which you skillfully guided me though and helped me to integrate in order to heal.

Thank you so much for everything.

“It seems so simple now!”

Kim taught me to listen to my body. I now can slow down and find out what I really need…which is not always food. I also learned it doesn’t have to be all or nothing. I struggled with dieting and then overeating. I have found a happy place where I can just be. She also taught me so much about food, reading labels and how good real food can be. Thank you.

“I felt like I could tell her anything and she would not judge me.”


My reason for hiring Kim is different as I already knew how to eat healthy and was already in great shape. I wanted to learn more about digestion and overall gut health which is super important for all aspects of life. She is amazing! Very easy to talk too and she made me feel very comfortable and I felt like I could tell her anything and she would not judge me. She is very nice and definitely very knowledgeable! She was able to help me in every way I needed and then some! Anyone who needs any form of help that she offers because she is top notch and well worth the money and time!Could not be happier with the decision I made to hire her as my coach!

K. C.

“Kim is much more than a health coach. She is a tireless champion of holistic healing for those eager to initiate lasting transformation of their lives.”

I feel an enthusiasm for embracing routines and habits that encompass not only my body, but spirit and mind. Kim is a beautiful, genuine person who is intuitive and kind.
Her support and positive perspective always turn around my attitude and help me see the favorable aspect to decisions I’ve made in a non-judgemental way.
Access to this type of reassurance is perpetual and brings peace of mind. Kim is much more than a health coach. She is a tireless champion of holistic healing for those eager to initiate lasting transformation of their lives. Kim has been instrumental in bringing me home to my truest self.
