E59 - Aging Powerfully, Healing Deeply & Why Weight Loss is the Wrong Goal: With JJ Virgin

Dr. Samuel Lee Episode 59

In this episode, Dr. Samuel B. Lee, MD sits down with JJ Virgin, 4x New York Times bestselling author and celebrity nutrition expert, for an extraordinary conversation about aging powerfully, healing trauma from the inside out, and redefining what true health really means. From navigating the trauma of her son’s near-fatal accident while launching her first book, to rewriting her personal narrative as an adopted child, JJ’s journey is a testament to resilience, mindset, and cellular-level transformation.

JJ shares how building muscle—not losing weight—should be our north star in health, and how the right protocols (including resistance training, hormones, and microdosing GLP-1s) can radically shift both your biology and your confidence. This episode dives deep into gut health, community healing, spiritual integration, and how to move from survival mode into conscious creation.

Sacred Truths & Lessons from This Episode:
 • You don’t lose weight to get healthy—you get healthy to lose weight.
 • Aging powerfully starts with building muscle after 30.
 • Trauma healing requires safety, daily practice, and deep gratitude.
 • Community isn’t optional—it’s biological.
 • Gut health is ground zero for mindset, mood, and vitality.
 • You can reset your hormones, your habits, and your destiny.
