Ignoring Your Pelvic Floor Could Lead to Fractures & Falls – Kim Vopni on the Critical Mistake Putting Your Bones at Risk

Kim Vopni, The Vagina Coach, is here to change the way we think about pelvic floor and bone health. And it’s not just about leaks—it’s about strength, stability, and resilience as we age. Kim, a certified fitness professional and women’s health educator, is breaking the silence around pelvic floor dysfunction. In this episode, we explore why your pelvic floor is more than just muscles—it affects posture, core strength, and even fracture risk. Kim shares her journey from working with postpartum women to guiding menopausal women in rebuilding strength from the inside out. If you’ve been told to “just do Kegels” or stop lifting heavy, this conversation will shift your perspective. We dive into why posture is key, how tight muscles are actually weak, and why daily movement patterns shape long-term strength. Kim shares simple, evidence-based strategies for better pelvic floor function and bone health, so you can move with confidence at any age. Whether you’re dealing with leaks, prolapse, or just want to stay strong, this episode is a must-listen!
