Ep 58: Surgery Pre-hab and Rehab (Rectocele Repair Part 2 w/ Kim Vopni)

Dr. Bri Talks Lady Bits

If you or someone you love has surgery in your future, take notes during this info-packed "part two" follow-up (note: listen to Episode 57 for part one)! Kim Vopni, AKA "Vagina Coach," shares more about her recent surgery for rectocele repair. Kim reveals:

• The importance of minimizing inflammation and self-care + mindset both before and after surgery
• The power of affirming words and focusing on positive surgical outcomes
• Exactly how she felt going into surgery and coming out of it
• Exactly when she started her core restoration exercises (and what she did first)
• Why (and when) she started wondering if she'd made the wrong decision ("have I broken my vagina?")
• The post-surgical turning point (spoiler alert: it's week 6!)
• Why she is passionate about sharing her journey now (providing support and knowledge)
• The power of belief, trust, and faith no matter what path you choose
• Why worrying is like praying for what you don't want
