Episode 3: Interview with Kim Vopni - The Vagina Coach
Kim is on a mission to break through taboos and redefine how we think about women’s health - and just to be clear... Light Bladder Leakage is NOT 'just part of being a woman'.
She's passionate about wanting women to know how to connect to their pelvic floor so they can overcome challenges like incontinence and organ prolapse and regain a sense of control and power in their lives.
She's combined everything she's learned in from my own pregnancies and births (and now perimenopause) and coupled it with all I have learned in the last decade of helping women and created online pelvic floor programs as well as online coaching for women in pregnancy, motherhood and menopause.
Topics covered in this episode:
- What exactly is a vagina coach?
- Why she’s so so passionate about the pelvic floor
- What are the most common misconceptions and assumptions you find that people believe about their pelvic floor
- Is leaking/sneeze pee normal
- Understanding relaxation and engagement
- Combating the more is better mentality- understanding relaxation takes strength
- Diving into the 'Why didn't anyone tell me about this before?’ feedback
- Breaking shame around this area of the body not functioning optionally.
- We break down the Kegel!
- Combating the idea that the female body is fragile
- And more!
Kim offers DIY pelvic floor fitness programs and one on one coaching programs for pregnant and non-pregnant women. You can find more information on her website about her online programs and coaching services at vaginacoach.com.
