What does real recovery from explant surgery actually look like?
My latest podcast episode goes deep on that question with Kristi Sager — a former ICU and cardiac care nurse turned trauma-informed master coach who was diagnosed with implant-related chronic inflammation in 2024 after seven years of symptoms she didn't connect to her implants.
Out of her own explant journey, Kristi built the BREST Method — a whole-system approach to healing that addresses the nervous system, emotional patterns, and somatic recovery that physical surgery alone can't reach.
If you're navigating breast implant illness, considering removal, or wondering why you don't feel fully resolved after explant — this conversation was made for you.
