Are weight loss medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro really the answer — or are they another quick fix that keeps you disconnected from your body?

In this episode, psychotherapist Esther Kane, MSW, who specializes in food addiction, emotional eating, and trauma recovery, shares why relying on weight loss medication can actually keep you stuck in the same painful cycle — and what to do instead for real, lasting healing.

You’ll learn:

🌿 Why emotional eating isn’t about willpower
💔 The hidden emotional cost of appetite-suppressing drugs
🧠 How trauma and early coping patterns influence your relationship with food

💫 What real healing looks like — and how to find freedom without medication

If you’ve ever felt broken because diets or medications didn’t “work,” this episode will help you understand that your body has always been trying to protect you.
