About Us
Our Founder
I’m Tiffany, and I started the Pelvic Awareness Project because I was tired of feeling like there was something “wrong” with me and never getting a clear, honest answer.
For years I did what so many women do—kept my head down, stayed in the corporate grind, and quietly dealt with symptoms I didn’t even have language for. At some point I realized: if I’m fighting this hard for information and validation, I can’t be the only one. The last ten years of my corporate life were spent working shoulder to shoulder with surgeons and patients, focused solely on pelvic health. I saw, up close, how common these issues are—and how many women feel dismissed, confused, or embarrassed to talk about them. That experience changed me. It made me want to build a space where women feel seen, believed, and actually understand what’s happening in their bodies.
I’ve been practicing mindfulness for over 20 years and am a meditation teacher, so I care deeply about how our nervous systems hold stress, pain, and shame. For me, healing isn’t just about procedures or diagnoses; it’s about feeling safe, grounded, and connected to yourself again. I was born and raised in Southern California and now split my time between SoCal and Park City, Utah. Between the ocean and the mountains, I’m creating this project for women who are ready to stop pretending everything is fine—and start getting the support and answers they deserve.

Our Co-Founder
I’m Debbie. For years, I worked in an industry that could chew you up and spit you out. I built brands. I launched product lines. I sat in boardrooms and creative meetings, grinding through the constant pace of the fashion world. From the outside, it looked exciting. And in many ways, it was. But somewhere along the way, I felt creatively depleted. Unsatisfied. Like I was building things that moved fast but didn’t necessarily move anything forward.
Working for leading brands like Levi’s, DKNY, Perry Ellis, and Dockers taught me how to create a brand. How to tell a story. How to take something abstract and shape it into something people could connect with. But I kept wondering what it would feel like to use those skills for something that felt urgent. Something that mattered beyond the next season.
In early 2020, that opportunity showed up quietly.
Tiffany and I started talking about the gaps in pelvic health education for women — the silence, the confusion, the lack of honest information. The more we talked, the more I felt something shift. The idea of working on a cause-driven mission opened up a part of me I thought was long gone. The part that wanted meaning, not just momentum.
Then the world shut down.
While everything felt uncertain, we started building. Late nights shaping language. Wrestling with how to say things that hadn’t really been said out loud before. I built the first brand deck in the middle of that chaos, determined to give structure to something that felt deeply needed.
The same week I presented that vision, I got sick with COVID. I remember lying there, scared and unsure what the next few days would bring, thinking about how strange it was that we were building something meant to last while I felt so fragile.
Fear and hope sitting side by side.
That’s how PAP began for me.
It’s the first time in my career that everything I’ve learned — about storytelling, clarity, brand building, and connection — feels aligned with something truly meaningful. PAP isn’t about products or trends. It’s about giving women language, understanding, and the confidence to advocate for their own bodies.
And that feels worth building.
