This episode is for you if you’re experiencing bladder leakage. One in 3 women experience bladder leaks yet most are told to just accept it as part of aging. In fact, by menopause 50 percent of women experience bladder leaks during routine activities like sneezing, laughing or exercise.

Lauren Barker is the CEO and co-founder of Uresta, the first FDA-cleared, self managed bladder support device. She leads a Facebook community of over 8,000 members creating space for honest conversations about how bladder leaks impact fitness routines, careers and daily life.

We learn:

• One in three women experience bladder leaks, especially post-pregnancy and post-menopause

• Bladder leakage can significantly impact women’s quality of life and fitness activities

• Many women feel embarrassed to discuss bladder leakage leading to stigma

• Traditional treatments like pads are often uncomfortable and not effective

• Pelvic floor therapy can help, but many women are unaware of it as an option

• Uresta is a self-managed bladder support device that offers a non-invasive solution

• Uresta can be worn all day and does not need to be removed to urinate

• Practical tips like avoiding “just in case” urination and activating pelvic floor muscles during exercise
