A new My Health Story is coming – it’s a great time to send your feedback
Happy hello from me, Soula, the proud founder of My Health Story (MHS). And I’m very happy to announce an exciting new plan ahead for My Health Story – a total redesign! The team and I have known this day was coming; after all, when isn’t a founder (and a creative director, one at that) evaluating their idea? It’s a continuous process; it’s the ‘how long is a piece of string?’ formula. One I have embraced since 2016 when MHS was first realised into an official system. But there comes a time when you arrive at a crossroads, thanks to technology and feedback, and you [...]

Hello! This is a personal post from me, Soula, the founder of My Health Story. I just had to share this incredible news with you directly because it’s truly remarkable not only for me but also for everyone who has contributed to and collaborated with me on creating My Health Story (MHS). After years of building MHS, the online system and app have been selected for Melbourne Design Week, Australia’s biggest design event. And while alone that is something to celebrate, what truly excites me is the theme of this year’s event: Design the World You Want. That’s what I’ve been trying [...]
Soula Mantalvanos & Dr Susie Gronski talk about male pelvic pain and finding the right treatment
Dr Susie Gronski has been My Health Story's (MHS) Advisor and Friend for several years. Founder of MHS, Soula Mantalvanos, has been closely connected with Dr Susie Gronski since 2017. Recently, Soula looked back at their 2021 pelvic pain chat and realised it was time to organise another catch-up with this incredible therapist. Soula discovered Dr Gronski's incredible resources while seeking information for the advocacy website she founded in 2011, pudendalnerve.com.au, to help people living with pelvic pain. This search - specifically for resources relating to treatment for male pelvic pain- stemmed from male followers contacting Soula directly, alerting her to the fact that finding help for [...]
Welcoming MHS Friend, Dustienne Miller & Your Pace Yoga
My Health Story (MHS) founder Soula Mantalvanos and Physical Therapist and Board Certified Women’s Health Clinical Specialist Dustienne Miller go way back. In fact, all the way to 2014, when Soula was desperately seeking a way to return to her yoga practice and discovered Dustienne’s website, Your Pace Yoga. This was also the time when Soula was gathering resources for pudendalnerve.com.au in order to help an expanding global pelvic pain community. The introduction led to an instant connection: Dustienne purchased Soula’s book, Art & Chronic Pain – A Self Portrait, for her practice, which is still on the client waiting room [...]
