🎙️ EmpowHer Podcast — Episode #5

Tight-Lipped Conversations: Opening Up About the Pain Below

In this powerful episode, hosts Chedva Berger, LCSW and Dr. Riva Preil, DPT sit down with Noa Fleischacker, Executive Director of Tight Lipped : an advocacy organization by and for people living with chronic vulvovaginal and pelvic pain.

Noa shares her raw, eye-opening journey navigating pelvic floor dysfunction and vestibulodynia — including undergoing a Pap smear under general anesthesia and being repeatedly dismissed by providers.

Together, they unpack the physical and mental health impact of pelvic pain, medical gaslighting, and why accurate diagnosis and evidence-based care are essential.

This conversation is a reminder that pelvic pain is common, valid, and never something you should endure in silence.

Another episode of FACT OR FICTION!

Where I debunk common myths and highlight the truths we should have learned a long time ago.

This one comes up all. the. time.

Did you get this one right?
Let me know in the comments ⬇️

FICTION 🚫
“If you don’t have an or**sm through penetrative s*x, something is wrong with you.”

FACT ✅
About 70% of women have an easier time or**sming through cl****al stimulation, not pe*******on alone.
That’s normal anatomy — not a problem, not a failure, and not something that needs fixing.

If you haven’t listened yet, this episode dives deep into the intersection of nutrition, neurodivergence, and real-life eating.

From ADHD and executive function to sensory challenges, ARFID, body neutrality, and the gut–brain connection… Jackie breaks it all down with compassion and clarity.

Plus, she shares simple, doable wins: freezer-friendly meals, grab-and-go ideas, and dopamine-boosting micro goals that make nourishing yourself (and your family) actually realistic.
