What if obesity isn’t about willpower—or even food—but a symptom of deeper “famines” in our lives? In this powerful episode of Optimize W(e), Dr. Kathy Campbell, a pharmacist with over 30 years of experience, shares why she calls herself a wellness pharmacist and why true health requires so much more than filling prescriptions.
Drawing from her personal journey with obesity and decades of clinical work, Dr. Campbell unpacks the hidden drivers of poor health: nutrient deficiencies, lack of movement, disconnection, and even the unintended side effects of well-meaning medications. She reveals how food functions like an IV drip for your cells, why movement (not just exercise) matters, and why love is the most powerful chemistry of all.
You’ll also hear her candid critique of our transactional healthcare system—and her vision for bottom-up change powered by individuals, families, and communities. From chicken soup as medicine to practical strategies in her book Obesity: Discover Underlying Drivers, Dr. Campbell gives listeners tools to reclaim health, purpose, and joy.
