In today’s episode we dive into the benefits, risks and realities of modern weight loss drugs. Drugs like Ozempic, Wegovy and Mounjaro have hit the world by storm, and as they become more accessible, will only continue to do so.

There’s a lot of stigma and misunderstanding about them, and their side effects, so we wanted to share a balanced approach to how they could be integrated into a fitness journey. On a mass general population level, they’ll be a game changer in reducing obesity - you can get all the benefits of diet and exercise without doing much.

If you’re listening to this however, you want a more holistic approach to your transformation, so we share insights into who it may be useful for, why and how it could be utilised, or not. Remember, a lifestyle-first approach focusing on long-term habit building and identity integration is always going to be key if you want to be a high performer in every area of life.
