GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Wegovy are being marketed everywhere - but who’s really being targeted and who's benefitting? Today, we’re pulling back the curtain on how these drugs are promoted to the two most vulnerable groups when it comes to disordered eating: young women and menopausal women.

We dig into:

• Why eating disorders are already surging in teens and women in their 20s.

• How menopause creates a “second wave” of vulnerability and disordered eating

• The role influencers and social media play in normalizing prescriptions as lifestyle upgrades and why affiliate marketing makes this dangerous.

Then, we pivot gears to talk about the changing seasons of life. Summer is ending, kids are back to school, and routines are shifting. This doesn’t mean starting over - it means adapting your habits to the new season.

Whether you’re concerned about the rise of diet culture and influencers profiting from your health and insecurities or you just need help navigating your own health pivot as seasons change, this episode cuts through the crap and helps you keep moving forward.
