Let's talk about GLP-1's baby, let's talk about you and all the ways the Oprah Ozempic special is trying to not make you feel bad about your weight...but just bad enough to take these medications they're peddling. So let’s talk about: Shame, Blame, and the Weight Loss Revolution.
There is SO much nuance to this conversation, although we originally released it as a Patreon exclusive episode this spring, we wanted to share it with all of you too. So sit tight for a long, in-depth episode on our unfiltered thoughts on the Oprah Ozempic special, and what this means for us as all people in the wellness and nutrition space who have struggled with body and food "stuff".
