I Got Breast Implants & Then I Took Them Out #ittybittytittycommittee

In this vulnerable and personal episode, join me as I take you on a transformative journey through my experiences with body image, breast implants, explant, and the pursuit of self-love. 

 

As a teenager and into my 20s, I struggled with having small breasts, and in this episode, I open up about the challenges I faced during that time. From clothes that didn't fit properly to the frustrating search for bras in tween clothing stores, I felt the weight of societal beauty standards that seemed to favor women with larger breasts. The media's portrayal of bigger breasts as more desirable, powerful, and worthy of love and devotion only heightened my insecurities.

 

At the age of 26, while living in Los Angeles, I made the decision to get breast implants. Although they initially helped alleviate my self-consciousness, I admit that I never truly loved my augmented breasts. After 14.5 years, the implants started causing me physical discomfort, and it deeply affected me when my daughters started questioning if their bodies would resemble mine. I never wanted my daughters to feel that surgery was necessary to love their bodies or feel beautiful. Motivated by this, I made the courageous choice to explant two years ago.

 

During this episode, I share the emotional and physical challenges I faced after the explantation. While the results were not as aesthetically pleasing as I had hoped, I discovered a profound sense of self and authenticity that had been missing for so long. Recently, I consulted with a plastic surgeon to explore my options, and it became clear that I no longer desired implants. Instead, I began considering a fat transfer. However, the most significant lesson I learned through this journey is that my worth, beauty, femininity, and power are not contingent on changing my physical appearance.

 

In addition to sharing my personal story, I am excited to introduce you to my transformative photography sessions called Lens of Love. These sessions are designed to help women heal their relationship with their bodies and foster self-love. Inspired by my own experiences, I am passionately dedicated to supporting other women in embracing their authenticity and discovering their inner beauty.

 

Join me in this deeply personal episode as I open my heart and share my powerful journey of self-discovery, self-acceptance, and the realization that embracing authentic beauty begins from within.
