What Women Need is a podcast about real bodies, real stories, and the kind of care women deserve—but often don’t receive. Hosted by Dr. Sonali Santhanam—Pelvic Floor Physiotherapist, Lactation Consultant, and founder of Birth Basix—this show explores the physical, emotional, and systemic challenges women face from peripuberty to menopause.
Each episode unpacks the silent struggles so many women carry: pelvic pain, painful sex, birth injuries, postpartum recovery, breastfeeding challenges, peripuberty transitions, and the quiet burnout that’s often ignored.
If you’re ready to feel informed, empowered, and connected to your body—this podcast is for you.
With honest conversations, expert insights, and science-backed tools, What Women Need helps you make sense of your symptoms, reclaim your health, and feel seen through every season of womanhood—from your first period to postpartum healing to perimenopause and beyond.
