There's been a lot of talk about weight loss drugs recently -- how they work, who is eligible to use them, side effects & more. However, the psychological impacts of the drugs have not been a large part of that conversation, and it's an important one. It's something that Dr. Rachel Goldman, a clinical psychologist out of New York, has dedicated a lot of her career on. She was called on by Oprah Winfrey to help start the conversation on a more public stage in 2023 and she is the perfect person to continue the conversation with Maria today. Today's conversation includes:
- Definition of obesity and understanding it in our world today
- Dr. Rachel's experience working with Oprah
- Exploring food noise & how to quiet it
- Psychological impact of weight change
- How to speak with and model healthy behaviors and mindsets around weight, food & body image with kids
