Now and then, I will recommend a pod I think you will like. Sharyn came on the other day to talk about her new Podcast so here it is. 

Holy guacamole, as if beauty standards weren’t already cooked, along came Ozempic. 
It feels like out of nowhere this medication that is a miracle for those who need it for legitimate health reasons is now being used by those who don’t need it so they can shed body fat at a rapid pace & it’s terrifying, but has a lot of people (myself included) interested. 
What the F is ozempic? Who needs it? What are the side effects? What does it do? How much does it cost? 
In this episode I interview Johann Hari author of ‘The Magic Pill’ who’s researched Ozempic all over the world but also taken it himself. 
Also joining the chat from a Kiwi perspective my friend Katie and a bunch of amazing wāhine from our Better Me (Hopefully) community share their experiences.
