Kathrin shares her community story and journey with obesity and Mounjaro. Kathrin identifies as a Queer, Black Latina and she speaks about how she often felt othered being the largest person in her family. She bravely shared her experience with an insatiable hunger and how she tried every diet there was, as well as regular exercise and physical activity but the weight always came back on. Kathrin has found a new life since taking Mounjaro and is unwilling to go back to the way life was before. She’s begun advocating with her employer to try to get anti-obesity medications like Mounjaro covered and she tells us how. Our specialist guest tonight is Brittany. She began her career working in the appeals department of a health insurance company but soon entered the world of human resources. Brittany is a Benefits Director and shares her knowledge about the ins and outs of health insurance plans. We also discuss if it’s possible to leverage the Diversity Equity and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives to get anti-obesity medications on more formularies.  If we know the rules, we can play the game to advocate for our health!
