Lindsay Geddes - The Bladder Confidence Solution

11/04/2026

When the sympathetic nervous system is running higher than the parasympathetic, it literally increases the electrical currents moving through the nervous system - making bladder urgency signals more likely to fire and more likely to fire at a higher volume.

Follow to learn how to stop bladder leaks, urgency, and frequency, without surgery, medication, or complicated exercises.

This is not a theory.

It's physiology.

And it explains a lot about why stress, anxiety, shame, and fear around bladder leaking can make the urgency worse rather than better.

Most people are already living in a higher-stress state just logistically - the world doesn't make balance easy.

Add on a layer of having had a massively embarrassing or shameful public bladder event, and the nervous system responds by going on high alert.

Not because it's broken.

Because keeping us safe - physically, emotionally, and socially - is its number one job.

And leaking in public is a social safety threat.

The nervous system treats it as one.

The result is a nervous system that is more sensitised, sending more amplified signals, creating more urgency - which creates more fear and anxiety, which keeps the nervous system on higher alert, which amplifies the signals further.

Breaking that loop requires working directly with the nervous system.

Not just the bladder. 💡

This is my personal story - and it's one I hear echoed by so many women with bladder urgency.

Follow to learn how to stop bladder leaks, urgency, and frequency, without surgery, medication, or complicated exercises.

I was doing Kegels.

And my urgency was getting worse.

Not because I was doing them incorrectly.

Because my pelvic floor was already too tight - and adding more contraction to a muscle that is already rigid and stuck makes the urgency worse, not better.

Here's the distinction that almost no one explains.

There's a spectrum of pelvic floor function.

Too weak and loose at one end.

Too tight and rigid at the other.

And tight is not the same as strong.

A tight muscle can't contract more when it needs to.

It can't release when it needs to either.

It's just stuck.

Women with bladder urgency, urge leaking, and overactive bladder are far more likely to sit at the tight end of that spectrum.

Which means the standard advice - squeeze harder, do more Kegels - is the exact opposite of what their pelvic floor actually needs.

A tight pelvic floor needs to learn to release and coordinate first.

Then rebuild.

Adding more squeezing to an already overworking muscle only adds to an already overactive system. 💡

Bladder urgency that hits when you arrive home, park the car, see the toilet, or hear running water has nothing to do with how much urine is in the bladder.

Follow to learn how to stop bladder leaks, urgency, and frequency, without surgery, medication, or complicated exercises.

This is not a storage problem.

It's a nervous system association - and understanding how it works changes everything.

Think of Pavlov's dog.

The researcher rang a bell, then fed the dog.

Rang the bell, fed the dog.

Again and again until eventually he rang the bell with no food present - and the dog salivated anyway.

Not because there was food.

Because the association had been built.

The bell became a trigger.

And the response was completely automatic.

The dog didn't decide to salivate.

Women with bladder urgency are experiencing the exact same mechanism.

The nervous system has built an association between certain cues - the front door, the driveway, running water, washing hands or dishes, seeing a toilet - and the need to go.

And when those cues appear, the response fires automatically.

Not because the bladder is full.

Because the nervous system has learned to treat those moments as a signal.

Alongside this, the sensors in the bladder lining and walls can become oversensitive, and the brain amplifies the messages it receives - creating that overwhelming 0 to 100 urgency that feels completely real even when the bladder is barely full.

These are all learned patterns.

And learned patterns can be changed. 💡

Your instinct when bladder urgency hits is to rush.

To get there as fast as possible before anything happens.

It feels like the only logical response.

Follow to learn how to stop bladder leaks, urgency, and frequency, without surgery, medication, or complicated exercises.

But rushing is actually one of the things most likely to make you leak before you get there.

Here's why.

Running sends a signal to your nervous system that this is an emergency - which cranks the urgency even higher.

And the physical bounce of running jostles the bladder, which can trigger the very leak you're racing to avoid.

What works instead is completely counterintuitive.

Stop.

Stand still.

Breathe out slowly.

Do a few heel raises or toe curls.

Let the urgency wave crest and fall - and it always does fall.

Then walk calmly to the bathroom.

Most of the time, you'll get there easily.

And every time you do this instead of sprinting, you're teaching your nervous system that the urgency is not an emergency.

Over time the waves become smaller and easier to manage.

Yes, improving pelvic floor function helps with bladder urgency.

But the reason why is more nuanced than just closing the urethra harder.

Follow to learn how to stop bladder leaks, urgency, and frequency, without surgery, medication, or complicated exercises.

There's the obvious piece - a more coordinated pelvic floor can help keep the urethra closed during an urgency wave, which may mean the urgency hits but the leaking doesn't follow.

That's genuinely useful.

But there's a less obvious piece that matters just as much.

A rigid, lopsided, or uncoordinated pelvic floor irritates the bladder sitting in and around it.

Think of the princess and the pea - a very sensitive princess who can feel a tiny pea beneath multiple mattresses.

A very sensitive bladder will not like a mattress that's lopsided, too tight, or too loose.

And an irritated bladder is a more reactive, more urgent bladder.

This is why pelvic floor coordination and balance matter for urgency - not just closing strength.

And it's why adding more Kegels to a system that's already too tight or poorly coordinated can make urgency worse rather than better.

Weak muscles are mostly a stress leaking issue.

Tight, rigid, or lopsided muscles are an urgency and irritation issue.

And they need very different approaches. 💡

🚫 THIS needs to change if we want women to overcome bladder issues!

Stop telling women their pelvic floor is simply “weak” or “loose” and that Kegels are the answer to everything.

(Spoiler: they're not!) 🙅‍♀️

I'm tired of seeing women being given the same advice without understanding what's REALLY going on.

👉 Bladder leaks after childbirth or menopause are common, but that doesn't mean you have to accept them as your new normal.

👉 Kegels aren't a magic fix for everyone.

👉 And bladder control isn't always about muscle strength.

So, what else could be going on?

💡 Leaks, urgency, frequency, and waking up at night to p*e can involve several factors, including a Bossy Bladder, a Tired Pelvic Floor, and everyday habits that may be working against you.

And here's what I want you to know: It's not your fault. You just may not have been given the full picture. 💛

That's exactly what I'll break down in my upcoming LIVE MASTERCLASS!

💛 Is a tight pelvic floor causing your bladder leaks?

Can I share something I see all the time?

A woman is doing everything she’s been told to do…

❌ Doing Kegels in the car
❌ Trying to “hold it” when the urge hits
❌ Going to the bathroom “just in case” before leaving the house
❌ Drinking less water because she’s afraid of making things worse

And she’s wondering, “Why isn’t this working?”

Or worse…

“Is this just how it is now?” 😔

Here’s something many women don’t realize: sometimes, the problem isn’t a weak pelvic floor. It can be a pelvic floor that’s too tight.

When those muscles are constantly gripping, they may struggle to relax and coordinate properly when you need them.

And here’s the tricky part: you might not even realize your pelvic floor is tight!

It doesn’t always feel tight or sore. Sometimes, it can show up alongside other symptoms, such as:

🔹 Tight hips or lower back
🔹 Constipation
🔹 Pain or discomfort with intimacy
🔹 Urgency or urge leaks

That’s why simply being told to “do more Kegels” isn’t always the right answer.

If your pelvic floor muscles are already overactive, adding more squeezing may make things worse.

💛 It’s not your fault if what you’ve tried hasn’t helped. You may have been given the wrong starting point.

This is exactly why I want more women to understand the signs of a tight pelvic floor and what they can do to start addressing it.

Imagine feeling an urge without immediately rushing to the bathroom, leaving the house without that constant background anxiety, and no longer planning every outing around the nearest toilet.

Imagine starting to trust your body again. 💕

If you’ve tried everything and nothing seems to stick, this could be an important piece of the puzzle.
