Why I Decided to Get Breast Explant Surgery, plus, What is this Breast Implant Illness thing all about? Part I EP264


I didn’t want to believe it at first.

About two-plus years ago I started to hear about this thing called BII, Breast Implant Illness.

Then I started to see it everywhere in my life, from my dear friend and yoga instructor Gayle, getting sicker and sicker before my eyes, to dozens of women’s stories coming across my news feed, and then this summer three of my clients had their breast implants removed back to back.

But….

I still didn’t want to believe that all of my symptoms, for the last five years, could be because of the giant water balloons I paid to have put in my chest.

  • The fact I felt like I was 80 years old.
  • Chronic fatigue
  • Constantly achy muscles and joints (flu-like)
  • Rashes on the backs of both arms
  • Diagnosed with hypothyroidism
  • Major fertility issues (again like I was 80)
  • Plus many many more

It’s a funny thing, when I’m in denial, God makes certain what needs to happen, is UNDENIABLE.

This year, the inflammation around my boobs kept getting greater and my boobs bigger, to the point where I was having back and shoulder pain. (God was literally on my shoulders)

My hair started falling out in clumps, and I suddenly gained around 12 pounds. My hormone doctor had me get labs done, my body stopped producing progesterone, but all the other hormones were great. Even she was perplexed!

When in went to Cabo for my birthday with my bestie, second day into the trip she looked at me with concern, love, and compassion and said, “it’s time you get them removed, you’re ready.”

I felt God nodding in head in agreement.

Although I may be stubborn, I’m humble enough to listen when the Universe speaks.

There’s so much more to the story, which is why I created this episode for you to hear all the details of this wild journey.

Ep 787 Why Your Quantum Jump Isn’t Making You Next Level Money Yet

You feel the shift. You see the signs. You know something is changing… but your income hasn’t caught up.

If you’ve been deep in manifestation, personal growth, and mindset work but still aren’t making more money or seeing results in your business, this episode will show you exactly why.

There’s a gap between feeling a quantum jump internally and actually translating that into income, visibility, and business growth. Most people stay stuck here—consuming content, recognizing patterns, and doing the inner work—without ever turning it into something that makes them money online.

In this episode, Tiffany breaks down what quantum jumping really means in practical terms, why manifestation alone doesn’t create financial results, and how fear of being seen, nervous system responses, and lack of execution block your next level. You’ll also learn how to turn your personal growth, skills, and lived experience into a personal brand that generates income and creates real momentum in your business.

If you feel like you go all in on your business, build momentum, start seeing things work… and then suddenly fall off, lose consistency, or disappear altogether, this episode breaks down exactly why.

This is not about discipline, motivation, or “getting it together.” What you are experiencing is a predictable behavioral and neurological pattern that most entrepreneurs misdiagnose.

Inside this episode, you will learn what is actually happening in your brain and nervous system the moment you start gaining traction, why visibility and success can trigger resistance, and how this creates a cycle of inconsistency, self doubt, and lost income.

This episode blends neuroscience, psychology, and real world business strategy so you can stop repeating the pattern and start building consistent momentum that leads to results.
