Hip Replacements & Movement Careers: What I Wish I Knew Before Surgery


Listen Later

This episode is for anyone navigating the world of hip replacements—whether you’re a movement teacher facing surgery, a curious student, or a trainer working with post-op clients.

I share my own journey from hip arthroscopy to anterior hip replacement, and we’ll cover:

  • How to know when it’s time to consider surgery
  • Pre-surgery physical and mental prep
  • The real recovery timeline and what surprised me
  • Understanding the differences between anterior, posterior, lateral, and SuperPATH surgical approaches
  • Finding a surgeon who understands your profession
  • Adapting your practice and teaching afterward
  • Growth mindset and what resilience really looks like in healing


📌 Why This Matters:

As movement professionals, we rely on our bodies—not just to work, but to teach through example. But when that body needs help, knowledge is power. This episode empowers you with perspective, practical tools, and maybe even a little courage.


📎 Mentioned in This Episode:

  • What I wish I knew before the surgery
  • Pre-hab and Rehab tips
  • Questions to ask your surgeon
  • How to support clients after hip replacement


📣 Call to Action:

If this episode resonated, share it with a friend or student who might need to hear it. And if you’re going through this journey yourself—send me a message. You’re not alone.
