One Year Later: My Explant Anniversary, The Proof of Choosing Freedom, and Nyomi's Intimate Corner

💬 Got something to share? Text or voice note me **One year ago today, I made a choice to stop proving myself and start trusting myself — I removed my breast implants. Today, I'm celebrating that choice with proof: real footage, the full journey, not the highlight reel.** **In this episode, I open up about what it's meant to live one year past my explant surgery, why "the choice created the proof," and how showing up in truth — not just talking about transformation, but living it — has become the heartbeat of Season 5. I also share big news: my documentary-style anniversary film drops today exclusively on my new Patreon, Nyomi's Intimate Corner, and my film *To Unleash Us Back* premieres this Friday on Tubi.** **We talk about:** - **Why I chose to remove my implants and what fear tried to tell me along the way** - **The difference between *telling* people about transformation and *showing* them** - **What's inside the full explant anniversary footage — surgery day, post-op, and one year later** - **The launch of Nyomi's Intimate Corner on Patreon, and what it means to go deeper into sexuality, sensuality, and spirituality alongside self-love** - **Why I believe your body isn't the problem — it's the proof** **If you or someone you love is navigating breast implant illness (BII) or a major body-reclamation decision, this episode — and the footage behind it — is for you.** **In This Episode** - **Grounding practice — starting the show with breath and affirmation** - **The announcements — documentary drop on Patreon + *To Unleash Us Back* premieres on Tubi** - **The choice vs. the proof — reframing a year of "telling" into a moment of "showing"** - **What's in the footage — night before, morning of, post-op days, and one year later** - **Why she's releasing it raw and unfiltered, including topless imagery, for anyone facing BII** - **Introducing Nyomi's Intimate Corner — the new home for deeper conversations on sex, sensuality, and spirituality, launching in October** - **Closing affirmations — "My body is not the problem. My body is the proof."** **Resources & Links** **🌸 Start your self-love journey today — 7 days free on Elevate Me:** studio.com/nyomi **or** elevatemenyomi.com **🔓 Watch the full 1-Year Explant Anniversary film (unedited, unfiltered) — exclusively on Patreon:** patreon.com/cw/NyomisIntimateCorner **🎬 *To Unleash Us Back* — premieres Friday on Tubi** **📩 Got something from today's episode?
