Hey, you guys. Are you ready to talk about boobs, breast implants, breast ex-planting, which means getting them out. I've had both of those surgeries done. I've had two lifts done.

0:23.3

So I'm going to share with you my experience.

0:29.0

And before we get in to this, I know that a lot of people who talk about breast implant illness are very convicted and very passionate about breast removal, getting them out, not getting

0:35.8

breast implants in.

0:37.4

And I can totally understand why,

0:39.3

because breast implants have made a lot of people very, very sick. And I think they were contributing

0:45.3

to a variety of health challenges that I was facing. But before we dive in and unpack,

0:51.7

getting implants and getting them out, I just want you to know my stance

0:55.5

1:34.2

with their body does not impact me. And that's my philosophy. And so whether you have a desire

1:40.5

to get implants or lip fillers or Botox or any or a nose job or you want to lose

1:47.3

weight or you have fitness goals. This is a place where we respect body autonomy and I hope that

1:52.5

you always feel that when you're engaging with any of my content. And I might be passionate about

1:57.5

talking about something, but I'm also very open-minded, and I just respect

2:02.2

everybody's right to choose to do what's right for them. So when I share my own story today

2:06.6

about getting implants and my decision to get them removed, why I decided to get them removed,
