Women's health has been whispered about for too long. On Down There Aware, host Amy Milne gets loud about everything below the belt—endometriosis, PCOS, menopause, pain, medical gaslighting, and the healthcare system's failure to listen. Amy interviews doctors, researchers, advocates, and real women sharing raw stories of misdiagnosis, survival, and resistance. Don't expect polite conversation that makes light of women's health issues or brushes them off as "just how it is." The conversations are bold, honest, unapologetic, and real. Whether you're in your own fight with the medical system, battling chronic pain, supporting someone who is, or ready to join a movement demanding better care, this is your space. We're done with whispers. It's time to get loud.

Amy is joined by Jess Haney, who runs Binge-Worthy Studio with her partner Franco (the team behind this podcast,) and works as a fractional CMO for six-figure online business owners. For most of her life, her period barely registered: the smallest tampon, no cramps, a cycle she hardly thought about. Then, four or five years ago, things started to shift, with cramping, anxiety that took days to shake off, and an adult ADHD diagnosis. Within the last two years came mornings when she’d wake up c...
Shannon Gallagher was a Smitherey Style customer for eight years before she bought the company. She first showed up when her body had changed after her first baby and she had four things in her closet she could actually wear. Now she runs what she calls Canada’s only and largest “shop your shape” online retailer, built on one idea: there are six main body shapes, and stylists have been keeping that to themselves for years. Amy and Shannon get into why your shape can change more than once in a...
Dr. Sarah Shaw’s path into women’s health started at 12 years old, in a body cast, after a spinal surgery — watching how little room healthcare left for the actual patient in the room. That question followed her through a career as a social worker, then a developmental psychologist running outreach for street workers in Nova Scotia, then research at Harvard studying young women who self-harm, before she finally went to medical school and spent 17 years as a family doctor. Now she’s one of fou...
Sandra Ghaly, founder and clinical director of Makewell Health, sat through two to three days of pelvic floor education in physio school and thought (along with every other woman in her class) "no chance am I ever doing that." She built an entire career in orthopedic physio instead — until she kept meeting patients who told her they leaked when they squatted or felt heaviness she had no idea how to treat. It took her own two pregnancies, one vaginal delivery and one C-section, both requiring ...
Shirlee Williams ran a successful yoga and spin studio for 14 years — she was in the wellness industry and still spent her first year of menopause convinced she was dying. Joint pain, funky blood work, a mysterious itch her doctor kept treating as a yeast infection four rounds running, before anyone thought to check for lichen sclerosis. She even went to her family doctor certain she was pregnant, only to find out she was actually in menopause. It took years of being told she was "fine" befor...
Nicole King — known as Ms. King, of Ms. King's Kitchen, serving caribbean-inspired meal prep, catering & events — spent over a decade on birth control before anyone asked why she was in pain in the first place. It took passing out mid-catering-job on a 300-person boat ride, a fallopian tube destroyed by endometriosis before anyone told her, and a parade of doctors offering the same three "solutions" — birth control, painkillers, or go get pregnant — before she landed anywhere close to rea...
Erin Beattie spent twenty years bleeding through her clothes, flooding through overnight pads in a two-minute car ride, before anyone said the word endometriosis out loud. Then, in the middle of an 18-month wait to get diagnosed, she was found to have breast cancer — three surgeries in nineteen months, including a bilateral mastectomy and a total hysterectomy that finally revealed stage three endometriosis along the way. Now, almost a year into acute surgical menopause with almost no map for ...
Marnie Rabinovitch Consky, Founder & CEO of Thigh Society, didn't set out to build a company — she got mad. Seventeen years ago, after a lifetime of yo-yo dieting and being told her thighs touching was a problem to fix, she went looking for something to stop the chafing and found nothing that wasn't marketed like a consolation prize for not being thin enough. So she built it herself. Today Thigh Society has sold over three million pairs and basically invented the long-leg underwear catego...
