Ep. 171 - The Vagina Coach, Kim Vopni talks Pelvic Floor and Menopause

Dr. Fiona Lovely is a longevity, health and wellness expert with specialties in menopause medicine, functional neurology, and functional medicine. 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Forget the outdated “just do Kegels” advice.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.

What You’ll Hear:

• Kim’s journey to becoming The Vagina Coach

• Why “tight” isn’t the goal—rethinking pelvic floor strength

• Pelvic dysfunction: common but fixable

• The Buff Muff Method: beyond basic Kegels

• How menopause affects your pelvic health

• Non-surgical solutions (PT, pessaries & more)

• Why pelvic health deserves mainstream attention
