Welcome to Meet Your Body with Jessica Valant, MSPT — a podcast dedicated to helping women feel strong, safe and empowered in their bodies through every season of life. Combining science-backed education, professional expertise, advocacy, and compassion, Jessica brings honest conversations and practical tools to the complex world of women’s health and aging.
Each episode explores the topics women are too often left to navigate alone, including perimenopause, menopause, endometriosis, hysterectomy, prolapse, infertility, exercise, aging, recovery, body image, and learning how to advocate for yourself in healthcare and everyday life. Through expert guests, personal stories, actionable strategies, and evidence-based guidance, Jessica helps listeners cut through misinformation and reconnect with their bodies with more confidence and clarity.
Drawing from both her professional experience as a physical therapist & women’s health expert and her own personal health journey, Jessica offers a grounded, empowering approach to aging, healing, movement, and wellness — reminding women that strength is possible at every stage of life.
What if some of the biggest barriers to your health aren’t your habits—but the messages you’ve been taught to believe?
In this episode of Meet Your Body, Jessica shares her six biggest pet peeves in the health, wellness, and fitness industries. From judgment and misinformation to unrealistic marketing claims and one-size-fits-all advice, Jessica breaks down the trends that frustrate her most as a health care professional —and explains why they can leave women feeling overwhelmed, discouraged, and disconnected from their bodies.
You’ll hear honest thoughts on topics including:
- Why judging other people’s health choices helps no one
- Why nuance is essential when talking about exercise, nutrition, hormones and aging
- Misleading marketing and false promises that prey on fear and insecurityWhy nuance is essential when talking about exercise, nutrition, hormones, and aging
- How misinformation spreads so quickly—and what to do about it
This isn’t about calling people out—it’s about helping you become a more informed, confident consumer of health information and reminding you that your body deserves curiosity, context, and individualized care rather than quick fixes and false marketing claims.
This episode will help you cut through the noise and approach your health with greater confidence, clarity, and self-compassion.
