Jessica talks with Shantille Connolly, a senior health promotion specialist at UC Davis about their process of instituting a policy to make being weighed an opt-in measure at the clinic, rather than a default, and Shantille’s future projects including a team focused on size inclusive care. Jessica also discusses boofing as a Wellness trend that is in for 2024 and shares that “food is medicine” should be out this year.
