In her post, she shared, “I have been insanely hesitant on sharing this because, honestly, I’m afraid of the reactions. I guess with as much as I do share you wouldn’t think I would have a problem oversharing, but this goes deep for me. I considered not saying anything but then it just would have felt inauthentic, and well, you might be noticing a difference. So here goes. After many years of consideration, I have decided to get a breast augmentation and lift. I want to be open about WHY. First off, because “I” want to. That right there should be enough, but I feel like I need to explain the “I” part.”

Oftentimes, the decision to willingly get a surgical procedure may be difficult but Kramer’s openness made viewers feel comfortable to share their own experiences with her.

She concluded her post by saying “I’m at a place where I feel empowered to do what I want. I’m being honest about what it means. If you need a push to give yourself that same grace, here it is. No one knows what’s in another woman’s head. Or, for that matter, under their shirt. So do what’s right for you, and I’ll celebrate with you, too. I have to say I’m quite nervous but I’m excited and I would love to share my journey with ya’ll & because it’s #internationalwomensday I just ask you to celebrate women instead of tear down. We all need support.”

Not only did she publicly speak about her decision but she advocated her support for International Women’s Day emphasizing the importance of women supporting women. If you are leaning on the idea of getting a breast augmentation, allow the decision to be fully yours and embrace it. It is your body.
