After sharing her decision to remove her breast implants in a previous episode, Karenna openly shares how she is holistically and intentionally preparing for her explant surgery. She shares how it important it is to prepare her body for optimized healing.
Karenna walks listeners through the multi-faceted approach she is taking to care for her whole self leading up to surgery day.
