Why does starting a GLP-1 medication like Wegovy or Zepbound sometimes feel like your body—and your emotions—are on a whole new ride?

If you’ve just started one of these meds, you might already be noticing some changes: that queasy feeling that sticks around a little too long, the bloating that makes jeans feel like a bad idea, or maybe even some unexpected mood shifts that leave you feeling off. Sound familiar?

You're not imagining it. Nausea, reflux, constipation, diarrhea, and yes—even mood changes—are all common side effects people experience when adjusting to GLP-1 medications. And while it can feel a little overwhelming (and honestly frustrating), these symptoms are usually temporary—and more manageable than they seem.

In this episode, we’re talking about all the stuff no one really prepares you for: why these side effects happen, how your gut and brain are connected during this adjustment phase, and the small, practical changes that can actually make a difference. Whether you're in your first week or slowly increasing your dose, this info can help you feel more grounded—and a lot less stressed.

Tap in for simple, science-backed advice to help you feel better, physically and emotionally.
