Description

We have all heard that GLP-1 medications can aid in weight loss, but they also show promise in reducing the risks of heart disease, dementia, and even helping with disordered eating.


My next guest is Jessica Brown, a Stanford-certified compassion teacher, functional medicine clinical nutritionist, and author with over 25 years of experience in helping people heal physically and emotionally.


In this episode, we explore:

  • What GLP-1s are and their role in weight loss and overall health
  • The connection between GLP-1s and women's health during perimenopause and menopause
  • The emotional aspects of using GLP-1s, including the concept of "food noise" and strategies to address emotional eating
  • The importance of self-compassion and mindset work in conjunction with GLP-1 therapy
  • Insights from Jessica's new book, "Beyond the Shot," which guides you through the emotional landscape of your health journeys


I encourage you to listen to this episode and consider how GLP-1s might fit into your health journey. Remember, it’s all about finding what works best for you and your unique needs.
