This episode revisits one of my earliest reflections on the emotional and physical intensity of that first week after breast reduction surgery — the part no one really prepares you for. I share why every version of the first week is valid, whether yours felt overwhelming, surprisingly calm, or somewhere in between. 

The heart of this story is about releasing comparison and allowing your own healing to be enough.

This episode is part of my From the Vault series — re-released from my early days of creating Off the Rack, with timeless wisdom that still resonates today.
