1. She Sought Medical Help

McGraw opened up about a recent diagnosis in this Instagram post. She writes in the caption that she made sure to seek medical help for her problems. “I just wanted to share really quick that I have recently been diagnosed with PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome). To get the correct diagnosis, you would need 2 out of the 5 characteristics of PCOS and I had 3. During my appointment with my endocrinologist, I realized that may had been a factor in my issues with weight, so we decided to try a medicine to regulate my body more normally, and create the tools to continue to keep my body and myself healthy as I get older. I’m learning to navigate the new blemishes but I don’t think that I would have ever allowed myself to go to a doctors appointment like this unless I had taken the correct steps toward my mental health, because as much as physical health is important, mental goes hand and hand.”

2. She Fishes

McGraw spends a lot of time outside. She shares a lot of posts on Instagram of herself doing outdoor activities. One thing she likes to do is go fishing. She shared this video on Instagram of herself fishing at a pond. McGraw captioned the post, “Just a southern girl with an affinity for wearing the same sweater 4x a week.”

3. She Speaks Out

McGraw isn’t afraid to speak her mind. After the repeal of Roe v. Wade in June 2022, McGraw announced in this Instagram post that she was pulling out of a charity event due to the company’s stance on abortion. She captioned the post, “A message from me: I absolutely believe that adoption is a wonderful wonderful thing. There are so many children who deserve good homes who, through adoption, will be able to find them. With that being said, I cannot attend in good conscience an event in a pro-life state and pro life platform.”

4. She Plays With Her Dog
