Welcome to Under the Hood — where real talk meets real bodies. Hosted by Dr. Rebecca

Howard Eudy (Boston-based sex and couples therapist) and Dr. Alex DiGrado (pelvic floor

physical therapist in Melrose, MA), this podcast dives into the often-overlooked intersection

between emotional intimacy, sexual health, and physical well-being.

Each episode pulls back the curtain on what’s really going on beneath the surface — from pelvic

pain and postpartum changes to desire differences, erectile dysfunction, and how stress and the

nervous system shape your sex life. Through open, evidence-based conversations, Rebecca

and Alex explore how the body and brain work together in pleasure, healing, and connection.

If you’ve ever wondered why sex feels different after kids, how your pelvic floor affects desire, or

what to do when you feel disconnected from your body or partner, you’re in the right place.

What You’ll Learn

• How emotional safety and pelvic floor health work hand in hand
• The biggest myths about sex therapy, intimacy, and pelvic health
• Why both the body and the relationship deserve equal attention when it comes to desire and pleasure
• How to talk about sex, stress, and physical symptoms without shame or awkwardness
• Practical, compassionate ways to reconnect with your body and your partner

Tune in if you’ve ever thought:

• “I didn’t realize pelvic floor tension could affect my sex life.
• “We love each other, but our desire feels out of sync.
• “Why does my body shut down when I try to be intimate?”
• “Where can I get real answers about sex and health without the awkward small talk?”
