Last January, Brooke Shields broke her femur bone in an accident and worried fans after she fell off a balance board. The Blue Lagoon icon, 56, just opened up to PEOPLE about her recovery since then, and detailed what has been the most challenging aspects of healing such a painful injury.

“The bone is all healed and everything is sort of where it should be, and I don’t walk with a limp anymore,” Shields said to Everyday podcast host Janine Rubenstein. She added, ” but my strength is really compromised.” Shields then explained that spending time in recovery meant that she had to learn (and prioritize) what her own limits were. “I thought I had my strength back until I started to try to do certain things,” she said. “And so now I have to sort of amp that up a little bit.”
