She is speaking to the topics of women's health around perimenopause and menopause. In this week's episode, Dr. Fiona Lovely sits down with Kim Vopni, certified fitness professional, menopause support practitioner, and founder of The Buff Muff Method, for a refreshingly candid conversation about pelvic floor health—the topic no one talks about but every woman needs to know. Known as The Vagina Coach, Kim shares how an eye-opening moment in sixth grade sparked her passion for pelvic wellness, leading to a global mission to educate women on the foundation of core strength, sexual function, and continence. Forget the outdated “just do Kegels” advice. Kim explains why pelvic floor training should be holistic and dynamic—connecting breath, posture, and real-life movement. She and Dr. Lovely also dive into the challenges of prolapse, incontinence, pelvic pain, and how menopause magnifies these issues. Most importantly, they discuss effective, non-surgical solutions and why pelvic floor physiotherapy should be routine care for women everywhere.

She is the creator of the Buff Muff Method and Membership in which she provides education and exercise, lifestyle support and group coaching, to help women prevent & heal incontinence & prolapse. *My "likes" and "ums" were in full force in this episode - I needed to slow my thinking and speech. Hopefully it won't distract you from the wealth of information in this episode. This episode talks about why attending to our pelvic floor health is important to our resilience as women and to living big, full, amazing lives. We discuss common pelvic floor issues among midlife women including prolapse, vaginal drying/thinning, bladder leaks, and more.There is a lot we can do in terms of preventive care but the reality is that many of us in midlife and beyond did not receive the health education we needed to prevent or attend to some of our symptoms more quickly. It's never too late though. Whatever season of life we are in, we can take action to feel more empowered in our bodies and lives.Share this episode with your daughters, sisters, friends, and mom.

Not with our partner, our friends or even our doctor. I know because for years I was a trainer who didn't ask this question. And needed to. And it's only recently I realized that women don't even associate a need to tell this with the type of exercise they do or don't do. Embrace Pelvic Floor Health in Menopause for wellness. If you've been ignoring or are unaware of Pelvic Floor Health in Menopause, it's time to tune in and take control. Engaging in the right types of exercise can make a significant difference, not just for pelvic health but for your overall wellbeing during menopause. My Guest: Kim Vopni is a self-professed kegel maven and is known as The Vagina Coach. She is a certified fitness professional who became passionate about spreading information on pelvic health after the birth of her first child over 18 years ago. She is an author, a passionate speaker, and a women's health educator. Her most recent book, Your Pelvic Floor, launched in March 2020 and was on the bestseller list immediately. After experiencing the upheaval of perimenopause she began educating herself on ways to support her own body and then took a certification to become a Menopause Support Practitioner so she could help others navigate the transition with ease. Kim offers online programs and coaching for women through all life stages but the majority of her client base is in the peri and postmenopausal phase of life. Her Buff Muff app is an ever-growing community where people from around the world find support through her 28 day challenges and monthly membership. Kim also certifies other fitness and movement professionals to work with women with core and pelvic floor challenges through her Core Confidence Specialist Certification and Pre/Postnatal Fitness Specialist Certification.

Your pelvic floor is an incredibly important part of the body that very often doesn't get the attention it deserves. Incontinence, painful sex and constipation are all embarrassing symptoms of a weak pelvic floor. But on occasion, poor pelvic floor health can result in more serious issues such as prolapse. All of these issues are extremely common, particularly after pregnancy and childbirth. And they're absolutely treatable, but aren't openly discussed often enough. And many women suffer unnecessarily in silence rather than seek help. So I'm delighted to be able to speak today to author pelvic floor specialist and creator of the ABS system Kim Vopni. Kim Vopni is a speaker and women's health educator known as the Vagina Coach. She is a certified fitness professional who became passionate about spreading information on pelvic health when she was pregnant with her first child.

In this week's episode of The Girlfriend Doctor, I brought you a very special segment on having a healthy vagina, The All Things "V" Masterclass. Our guests in this class include premier women's health expert, Dr. Betsy Greenleaf, self-professed Kegel Maven, Kim Vopni, aka The Vagina Coach, and CEO of The Integrative Women's Health Institute, Jessica Drummond. These wonderful ladies have so many more titles but today we all have the hats of vagina health experts on and each of us shares our expertise on this heavily mystified subject. This masterclass includes topics such as what specific section of pelvic health each guest specializes in, the importance of knowing your own pelvic anatomy, how to treat post-hysterectomy pain, the crucial importance of fluid body and pelvic movement, and much more. We also discuss how likely most women are to experience some form of pelvic health condition and how we can better prepare ourselves for it or treat it if/when it arrives. This is a very touchy subject so it was very empowering to be able to have this conversation with these immensely knowledgeable and influential women that have seen it all. All of these gals have books, websites, and social media pages that you can visit if you want more information about their area of expertise or if you just want to reach out with a specific question. It was truly an honor to be in the presence of these powerful women. Tune in, take notes, and start taking control of your pelvic health!

Pelvic floor muscles play an important role in our bodies, and we may not realize how important until we have incontinence, pain, and/or prolapse. A common concern is the root cause of a dysfunction might not be properly addressed causing issues down the line such as the need for surgery or repeat surgery. Kim Vopni, author of Your Pelvic Floor, is a self professed pelvic health evangelist and is known as The Vagina Coach.She is a certified fitness professional who wants to end the suffering associated with pelvic floor dysfunction. Kim speaks with Fempower Health on the following about pelvic floor health and surgery: Which are the 3 types of pelvic floor dysfunctions? What are the signs of a weak pelvic floor and how do you fix pelvic floor dysfunction? What are pelvic floor dysfunction treatment options and which pelvic floor dysfunctions might require surgery? How do you optimize pelvic floor surgery recovery time and outcomes? How successful is pelvic prolapse surgery, and what can you do post surgery to optimize results? How do you find the right pelvic floor surgeon? Which questions should you ask the pelvic floor surgeon? What if you can't afford a pelvic floor specialist or surgeon? “I do see a lot of people after the fact who say “I had surgery for this and then I still have this problem or the problem came back” or “I have another problem and then I had another surgery.” People will chase the problem with surgery or pharmaceuticals and aren't getting to a root cause.” - Kim Vopni Follow Kim Vopni on Instagram Resources: Buff Muff App Free Pelvic Surgery Webinar Spotify Playlist for other Pelvic Health related episodes Kim's Book Your Pelvic Floor Study on lower back pain and association with pelvic floor issues Below the Belt film If you liked this episode and you're feeling generous, don't forget to leave a review on iTunes or Spotify!

We're half way through our one year masterclass on moving out of a rut and Jennifer John from The Sacred Space Coaching is here to help us identify ways to empower ourselves so that we can effectively move on for good from self-sabotaging behaviour. Jennifer shares some classic ways we self-sabotage but also how to nix those old habits with a few simple shifts. Who had Monkeypox on their 2022 bingo card? It's another health concern that seems to be growing so I reached out to Dr. Dina Kulik who is always a calm and measured voice. Dr. Dina shares the symptoms we should be on the lookout for, what to do if we suspect Monkeypox, and how to protect ourselves. As always Anne Brodie is here with entertainment and this week we take a look the new Netflix documentary Halftime about Jennifer Lopez, the incredible Martin Freeman in the Responder available on BritBox now, and the emotional thriller Madeline Collins available in select theatres now which takes an eerie look at deception. Kegel or kegel. It's possible I butchered that word in my interview with The Vagina Coach herself, Kim Vopni. No matter how you say it, all women know what it is, but do you know the importance of doing them. As we approach World Continence Week, Kim joins me today to discuss the importance of kegels and of keeping ourselves informed because we do not have to deal with incontinence just because we're getting older. Dr. Prachi Srivastava who has been joining me for the past six months to discuss the state of education in Ontario, joins me to share what we're likely looking at now that Doug Ford's Conservative Government will be leading the way for the next four years. Finally your search for your next great beach read is over. Author Nancy Mauro joins me to discuss her latest book The Sugar Thief, about a secret pastry recipe that turns a family upside down.

Pelvic floor specialist Kim Vopni is known as the Vagina Coach and she's disrupting taboo topics to help women all over the world overcome problems of our most intimate parts, like vaginal prolapse and incontinence, which is a bigger problem than you may think. I first met Kim Vopni because members of the Biohacking Women 50+ club on Clubhouse were telling me to reach out to her so we can talk about vagina issues related to our age group like sneeze pees and vaginal dryness. Yeah, we talk about everything in that club. I was blown away by what she told us and love that she does not accept “light bladder leakage” as just part of being a woman. Thank you! Kim is a very qualified pelvic floor specialist and fitness professional. She also has a degree in Psychology and a postgraduate certificate in Health and Fitness. She writes books and regularly speaks publicly to campaign for women's health. She just wrote a book earlier this year called Your Pelvic Floor. Kim is the founder of Pelvienne Wellness Inc – this is a company that gives pelvic health programs, products and coaching for women in pregnancy, motherhood and, yes, menopause. She also created a really cool recovery and birth prep system for pregnant women called the Ab System. And if you're a health professional out there, or, want to be one, Kim also certifies people to know how to specifically work with women who have core and pelvic floor challenges through a couple of certification courses she offers.

I'm so excited for this conversation because it's one that isn't being had nearly enough, esp within our doctors/gynos offices. When I first learned about pelvic floor health I had already been through years of pain, countless dr appts, surgeries, and still no clear answers. I was feeling defeated and upset with my female region. But then I discovered what my guest will be sharing about today on the podcast and it completely changed everything. Our guest today is Kim Vopni - also know as the Vagina Coach - a Pelvic Floor Coach who believes that pelvic health needs be discussed and offered to all vagina owners! She helps women overcome challenges like incontinence, organ prolapse and other pelvic floor dysfunctions so they can regain a sense of control and confidence in their life.

The pelvic floor is a very important foundation for some of our body's most fundamental functions. It is the foundation of our core, and as women, it's where we derive our power, our confidence, and our creativity from. Dysfunction in our pelvic health directly compromises our quality of life and creates a multitude of health-related difficulties. Often we are told that the dysfunction is a normal part of being a woman, with having children or simply aging, but solving these issues is possible and within our control. There's a huge gap in the information that's given to women about the pelvic floor. My guest today is a pelvic health evangelist fighting to change that. What purpose does the pelvic floor serve in our bodies? Are we more prone to pelvic health issues as we age? How can we add pelvic health maintenance into our self-care routine? In this episode, I'm joined by Kim Vopni, an entrepreneur, pelvic health coach, and author who is also known as The Vagina Coach. She shares how we can get our pelvic floor working optimally and why kegels are anti-aging!

Like, rate, and leave a review on Apple Podcasts! (https://apple.co/2Nq9und) Follow Unfit on Instagram (https://bit.ly/3hxTUnD). This week we got an episode for the ladies. We sat down with Kim Vopni, a certified personal trainer and pelvic floor coach (11:21), to chat all about pelvic health. Kim debunks some misconceptions about what can happen to your pelvic floor as you get older, and she makes a strong argument for seeing a physical therapist who specializes in pelvic health at least once a year, like you would go to a routine dentist appointment (18:08). As you can probably guess based on this episode’s title, there is more to pelvic health than simply “doing kegels.” And the truth is, there’s a good chance you’re doing kegels incorrectly! We definitely were. Kim delivers some cues and a couple different visual examples to help us make sure we’re doing kegels the right way (34:50). Try to see if you can connect to your pelvic floor while listening to this episode, and let us know if Kim’s cues worked for you.

You heard it here first folks! We have the Vagina Coach (yes you read that right) on to tell you all about your body and we guarantee you are going to learn a thing or two. Certified Fitness professional, women's health educator, published author, speaker, entrepreneur and mama, Kim Vopni joins us to talk about the importance of pelvic floor health. This is a topic rarely discussed but is one of the most important factors in women's physical health and wellness, especially for pre and post child birth. We are blown away by how much we didn't know or understand about our own bodies and how little attention pelvic floor health gets in the medical field. Kim breaks down many misconceptions i.e. how you're actually supposed to do Kegels (we promise you're doing it wrong). We get into the whole "bounce back body" obsession and how other cultures respect and honour new mothers through the practice of "Mother Roasting," something our society really needs to adopt. Kim gives us the info we didn't know we needed and we love her for it. To our pregnant friends and fam, scrap the baby shower and ask for appointments with a pelvic floor coach.

If you've had kids, chances are that once in a while a sneeze, a jump or a cough might cause you to get a bit nervous. You know what I'm talking about. But did you know that you can actually take steps to stop those moments? Kim Vopni is known as the Vagina Coach. She is a pelvic health specialist and she helps women improve their pelvic floor health. Before I discovered Kim I had NO idea that you could in fact do something to improve the situation. Turns out I didn't even know how to do a proper kegel! Spoiler alert - it's not while sitting at a red light. This episode could literally be life-changing for someone living with those little leaks, or even full blown incontinence. Okay, so more so Kim's work could be life-changing, but this episode is awesome. This is important information and it's a fascinating conversation.
What are the most common misconceptions about pelvic floor health, is leaking/sneeze pee normal, and understanding relaxation and engagement specifics are just a few of the topics we hit on in today's episode!
Kim Vopni is a mom of two, a personal trainer and owner of Bellies, Inc and The Vagina Coach. She is the author of Prepare To Push, Your Pelvic Floor The Inside Story and Pregnancy Fitness published by Human Kinetics. She is also a speaker and a women's health educator who passionately talks the taboo. She has a busy online coaching practice and also offers DIY pelvic floor fitness programs for women in pregnancy and beyond. Growing up terrified of childbirth, Kim's relationship with her mother gave her another woman's experience with motherhood. After not wanting children most of her life, and choosing to focus on herself and her journey with physical fitness and well being. Following her journey and watching her sister grow into motherhood, Kim decided to have a child and being curious, leaned into the experience and used a pelvic floor trainer Epi-No, recommenced by her midwives (unfortunately no longer available in Canada). Following the success of her birth and loving the experience, she became a distributor for the product. After being laid off from her job, she leaned into selling this product and using her network of midwives, she learned more about pelvic floor therapist, something she had heard of and learned more about. Tying her connections to physical health and wellbeing prior to kids, she became the Vagina Coach. Even though Kim “talks the taboo” the topics she shares and discusses are things people with vaginas deal with regularly. Historically its a topic of shame and embarrassment, and Kim's goals are to destigmatize and make our vagina health less clinical and more relatable. The over-medicalization of childbirth has led women into fear-based reactions and interventions, rather than trusting the process of childbirth, when our bodies have been designed to go through this. But with the rise of social media, and being able to bring awareness to the options available. When given the information, women are able to make the best choice for their bodies. We talk so openly as mothers about what is going on with our children, but we will have so much shame and embarrassment when trying to talk about what's happening to us. From incontinence to bowel issues and pain, it is important to share the issues we face to ease the anxiety and shame, and to heal. Kim works with women in all stages of motherhood, from postpartum to menopause, she works with anyone who has female anatomy. She works with people in prevention or for correction of issues. Kim wants people to take control regardless of their symptoms or lack thereof. The most common issue women face post-childbirth is leaking when they laugh stress urinary incontinence, from exerting a force that the muscles don't have the strength to manage. Urge incontinence is also the sudden urge to use the bathroom without warning. The second would be prolapse. Over 50% of women have some degree of prolapse. Back pain is also another issue, that is very common with pelvic floor weakness. Often times a chiropractor for the pain, yet it is closely tied to the pelvis. Diastasis Recti is another closely tied symptom of pelvic floor challenges. A lot of women cope with these issues and often don't realize how closely tied they are to pelvic floor health. We see dentists for preventative care, why can't we normalize seeing the dentist? Having these conversations early, and often would do wonders for empowerment, movement, birth and general wellness. When we don't know these things are associated you can work on healing them. When we are aware of what the issues are and how to manage them, we are in a position of power and can control the things we do to counter the symptoms. Therapy can help more than a surgical intervention because we are learning different strategies to prevent problems and optimize the outcomes. When we break a leg we go to physiotherapy after surgery to heal the muscle and body after a traumatic injury for rehab.
Kim is incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the health of our vaginas as Mothers. As a mother herself, and a Doula, Fitness Coach, and Vagina Coach she has helped thousands of women regain confidence by becoming pelvic health informed and empowered. In our conversation together we spoke about her lived experience as a Vagina Coach (how she got that name), biofeedback for gathering information, weak pelvic floors + leaking + shame, and how women can re-connect to their physiology and emotional body. Kim is grounded in her knowledge and very real in her delivery. She is a force! I am grateful for the conversation we had :) *NOTE: part of the audio got interrupted half way through and some of the audio seems to be overlapping our conversation.
