In today’s episode, I sit down with McCall McPherson, founder of the Modern Thyroid Clinic and advocate behind Thyroid Nation. Together, we dive deep into the nuances of thyroid health, GLP-1 medications, and how these new treatments are revolutionizing metabolic health for women worldwide. Whether you're dealing with weight challenges, autoimmune conditions, or simply curious about cutting-edge solutions, this episode is packed with life-changing insights you won’t want to miss.

McCall and I explore the complexities of GLP-1 medications, like their history as diabetes treatments and their rise as weight loss game-changers. We also break down how they work, their anti-inflammatory benefits, and their potential role in reversing metabolic dysfunction.

The discussion turns personal as we address the stigma women face when seeking help for thyroid or weight challenges, highlighting the critical need for better diagnostic tools and customized care. Whether you're struggling with autoimmune issues, managing postpartum thyroiditis, or curious about how these meds could improve your quality of life, we’ve got you covered.

What will you learn? We’re cutting through the media noise, debunking myths, and giving you the tools to navigate your health with confidence.
