Highlight of my Monday

I really look forward to this weekly podcast. When I hear to the gym Mondays after work, I know I have an awesome, encouraging podcast to listen to. (Sometimes I listen to it on my way into work because I’m too excited!) Dr. Janelle is a powerful speaker and she makes me believe that healing is going to happen for me.

Changing Lives!!

Dr. Janelle is changing lives with her podcast & Instagram community! Experiencing vaginismus can feel so isolating and it’s so great hearing her talk about it & hear all the success stories! She is helping women overcome shame & feel confident in their body. Can’t recommend this & Dr. Janelle enough!!!

New listener

I struggled with vaginismus and my pelvic PT recommended me this page/podcast. Learning to relax my pelvic floor has helped me also tap into how to relax my body overall and be mindful in my daily life! I’m on a journey of self exploration and this podcast is helping me in this journey.

Such Valuable Information!

I never knew this type of PT existed! Found this podcast through Therapy for Black Girls and I’ve been binge listening ever since. Such good information that sounds like it’s coming from the auntie that keeps it real with you. Love to hear it coming from a black woman!

Educational, empathetic and FUNNY!

This show is a light at the end of a very long tunnel. It has given me motivation to believe in healing. I wish every single OBY/GYN or medical professional listens to it! Thank you for you and your team 1000 times. If you could make an episode for the husbands/boyfriends/partners that accompany us in the process with advice or motivation for them I would love it please. 🙏🏼

OMG!

I came across this Podcast via the Therapy for Black Girls Podcast and I’m so glad I did! To hear someone (who looks like me 💁🏾‍♀️) speak openly and positively about the anatomy of a woman is refreshing. It is vital and believable because she looks like me! Yes, that part was worth repeating. I have been binging the podcasts since last week and the information Dr. Janelle shares is priceless! I’m looking forward to applying all of the knowledge obtained with my husband.

Powerful Insight on Women’s Health

I love how positive Dr. Janelle is in her episodes all about se*ual wellness and empowerment for women. In this podcast you’ll find exercises, recipes, mindset shifts, journaling prompts, discover the cause of symptoms, and most of all receive encouragement that whatever health struggle you’re facing - there is a way through!

Just What the Doctor Ordered

This podcast is just what the doctor ordered. Very informative and helpful. Dr. Howell is answering many questions I have had over the years, but didn't know who to ask or how to get help. I've learned so much. This episode was exactly what I needed.

Releasing Shame

I am grateful that Kelly Bronner’s Black Girl Burnout podcast introduced me to this show. For months, I’d been dealing with incontinence and have been off and on throughout my childhood. I’ve felt so much shame regarding my vagina and just ignored or avoided any symptoms or discomfort, that is until I listened to this podcast. After listening, I felt empowered to schedule a gyno visit to take my vaginal health into my own hands.

An important voice!

I listen to this podcast a minimum of once a week to hear Dr. Janelle’s voice as she helps us with her positivity, realistic solutions and as a beacon of hope who has educated herself on some tricky stuff women have to deal with. She is a trustworthy and informed voice.

Learning the good stuff

Thank you Dr.Janelle

I Am Learning So Much

This podcast is wonderful. I am learning so much about the importance of my pelvic floor. This part of a woman’s anatomy is so ignored by most doctors and that hurts us all. Dr. Janelle is kind and informative and breaks things down so it is easy to understand. The best part is that I am giving all of this information to my husband of 20 years and after kids, menopause and a hysterectomy we have rekindled our sex life!! That is a WIN!!
Lamninator

Everything she says makes me shout “AMEN!”

Love love LOVE this podcast! Amazing resource for women . I wish I’d had this back when I was single and newly married. Thankful for the information that I will be able to share with my kids when they reach their teen years. Thank you so much!!

Wish this was around when I was in my 20s

This doctor is such a fresh breathe of air. She talks about things that are taboo and make woman feel ashamed. She keeps it real! As someone who has been to a pelvic floor therapist there is still so much to be learned. Thank you for being a light for the vagina.

Thankful

I originally found the Vagina Rehab Dr. On IG and want to follow, listen and learn from everything she has to say and gain knowledge from all the gems she drops! Thank you for helping so many of us better understand what’s going on with our bodies and not gatekeeping this information! You’re truly one of a kind !

Everything You Didn’t Know You Needed!

Thank you Dr. Vagina Rehab. Each episode makes me feel more empowered.

Obsessed!! So helpful

So happy I found Dr. Howell on Instagram and then her podcast, it has been so so so helpful for issues I’ve had for decades with no help from any doctors! She helps it all make sense in a fun and relatable way, and I’ve bought a couple of her e guides and follow her Instagram religiously and her methods truly truly work! Wow! Now I’m using the info she puts out to prep for birth. Wish I had toss info for my first birth but so grateful to have it now, thank you!!!

The sexual education that everybody needs

Janelle is a powerhouse. She is providing the world with quality sex ed that is research based from an educational standpoint and putting her own little twist on it which makes it easy to understand and always interesting. I love her labs, they are offered at an accessible price. This is the type of sexual education that people need access to from the start- we’d understand our bodies so much better and life would be so much more enjoyable if we were doing this work BEFORE issues develop and knew how to heal what may arise💕

Knowledgeable information

This is the best podcast on pelvic floor issues. Dr. Janelle explains in details the various exercises to help improve women’s pelvic floor. All the tips have been so helpful. Can’t wait to learn more from you.

Janelle’s attitude and positivity make her inspiring and accessible. I have worked with her one on one, and she is incredible. Give her a listen!

Every episode is actually helpful advice

The Vagina Doctor is helping vagina CEOs everywhere. The second I can afford one on one coaching, I'm signing up. In the meantime I’ll listen to her brilliance.

This podcast is so awesome!!! Super helpful discussion that talks about women’s health and well-being in such honest, caring, empowering, and interesting ways.

Thank you!

Hi there! Thank you so much for your valuable information. Can you please do a show for women in their late 50’s like me who may not know if they have prolapse? I had my uterus removed in 2009 and I often have the urge to pee and I’m not sure what I feel inside of vagina but I do know it’s not easy to get a vibrator inside. I’m a single woman so I don’t have a sexual partner (at the moment). I haven’t had one since 2020. I’m definitely seeking him! Thanks again!

So good, so real, so funny

I am a pelvic floor physical therapist and I LOVE THIS PODCAST! I will be referring my patients to this. Episodes are short but so full of great content. Dr. Janelle is truthful and humorous and has a knack for breaking down the nitty gritty. Well done!
Elseap

Empowering

I’ve been a fan for a really long time, and love watching and listening on all platforms! This information needs to be out there!
fleebear

Truly a blessing

The information is so powerful and setting so many relationships free to enjoy one another the way God intended them to do so! A wealth of knowledge not only in the podcast but also in the workshops! As someone who has gone to a pelvic floor therapist, having THIS resource to continue on my sexual wellness and pelvic floor health journey is priceless.

Vagina QUEEN

Not only does Dr. Janelle Howell make me feel comfortable learning about my pelvic floor but she makes me want to embrace it! I have followed on Instagram for about a year now as well as participated in a few of the online 1 hr zoom classes on the occasional Sunday and now the podcast. THANK YOU Dr. Janelle for all the knowledge you share and all the time and effort that goes behind the scenes. I know for a fact I am not alone when I say you are appreciated!

Best podcast for women’s health

Dr. Janelle Howell is a delight. She will cut through myths and shame to get personal - she is also a ton of fun. This show is an incredible resource!!!

Quality Content

I follow Dr Janelle on multiple platforms and she is so knowledgeable. Her content is top notch. It’s easy to consume and implement. Which bodes for lasting results. She connects all aspects - from education, to exercise to calming the nervous system and incorporating breath work to how you eat for better pelvic floor health. She makes education if not free very affordable for all to improve their pelvic floor wellness and she does so with an engaging, positive and down to earth, no nonsense attitude. We need more healthcare providers like Dr Janelle. Thank you!

A Must-Listen for ALL Women!

Dr. Janelle is the perfect voice for this space and provides so much education around topics women have been afraid to discuss openly. Not only does her approach reduce shame and fear, it helps us embrace the beauty of our bodies by allowing us to understand how we were made to function. I also so appreciate her first episode, where she discusses how she started this journey. It gives a glimpse into what and who inspired her to be who she is for us today. I’m sharing her platforms to all the women in my life and I’m excited to learn along with others as she shares her wisdom!
