If you’re a woman in your 40s or 50s who’s feeling torn about Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro or other GLP-1 medications — this episode is for you. 

Maybe your doctor has flagged rising A1C, fasting glucose or cholesterol…

Maybe your weight keeps creeping up no matter how “good” you’ve been…

Maybe everyone around you seems to be losing weight on these meds and you're starting to wonder if this is the only way that will work now…

Or maybe you’re already taking a GLP-1 either for weight loss or Type 2 Diabetes but the side effects, the uncertainty, or the fear of rebound weight gain if/when you decide to come off of it are starting to weigh on your mind. 

If you’ve been wondering:

 “Should I try it?”

 “Should I stay on it?”

 “What other options do I have that could work better for me?”

 this episode will finally help you get the clarity you have been searching for. 

In this honest, grounded episode, I’m walking you through: 

Why so many midlife women are being pushed toward GLP-1s right now
…and why it feels so confusing 

What these medications actually do inside your body
(in simple, understandable language) 

The real pros & cons
—the helpful parts and the parts no one is explaining clearly 

How to support your metabolism naturally
whether you’re considering a GLP-1, already on one, or hoping to come off 

What your midlife symptoms are truly telling you
and why your weight, cravings, energy, and blood sugar have shifted so dramatically 

You’re going to walk away feeling clearer, calmer, and far more confident about what your next step should be - and without judgement either way.
