The Dose of It: GLP1s, Weight Loss & Wellness

Why is making friends as an adult basically dating… but somehow more awkward?

This week, Tay and Priss are talking all things adult friendships the good ones, the weird ones, the ones that fall apart, and the ones that actually survive the uncomfortable conversations.

They get into trust issues, friendship breakups, feeling like you have to “shoot your shot” just to make a new friend, and figuring out whether someone genuinely likes you or just likes what you can do for them.

They also talk about how past friendship experiences can make you guarded, why vulnerability is terrifying but necessary, and why having a tiny circle of real people can be way better than having 20 surface-level friendships.

Because apparently making friends as a grown adult requires confidence, emotional availability, social skills, and a small amount of delusion.

So… are we friends yet?

What happens when you stop waiting until you’re smaller, more confident, less scared, or more “ready” to start living your life?

You do it scared.

This week, Tay and Priss are joined by Tayler Newby mom, wife, GLP-1 creator, fitness lover, and the woman who somehow lost her original TikTok account and basically said, “okay cool, I’ll just build another one.” 😭 And build it she did… to 300K+ followers in just eight and a half months.

Tayler gets real about losing 170 pounds, starting her journey at a med spa that was costing her $1,200 A MONTH — yes, we also screamed — switching from semaglutide to tirzepatide, and eventually finding a version of movement she actually loves.

And apparently all it took was one Pilates class for her to become the person who genuinely wants to work out. Suspicious behavior, but we support it.

We’re getting into:

• Going from plus-size fashion content to sharing her weight-loss journey with hundreds of thousands of people
• Semaglutide vs. tirzepatide and Tayler’s experience with both
• Finding Pilates and realizing movement doesn’t have to feel like punishment
• Body dysmorphia and the absolute mindfuck of your brain trying to catch up to your changing body
• Internet hate, unsolicited opinions, and why people suddenly have SO much to say when you lose weight
• Raising kids while sharing your life online and deciding what stays private
• Why bigger bodies deserve to take up space in fitness spaces too
• And the mindset behind Tayler’s viral reminder: DO IT SCARED.

Because confidence doesn’t always come first.

Sometimes you walk into the class nervous. You post the video anyway. You wear the outfit. You start over. You take up space.

And then the confidence catches up.

Whether you’re on a GLP-1, starting over for the 47th time, terrified to walk into a gym, or waiting for some imaginary future version of yourself to finally start living, this is your dose to stop waiting.

Do it nervous. Do it imperfectly. Do it scared.

Just fucking do it. 💗

Dating apps are either helping us find love… or giving us enough stories for an entire podcast episode. 😂

This week, Priss and Tay are getting into the absolute chaos of modern dating Tinder, Hinge, Bumble, Facebook Dating, catfishing, height lies, instant icks, red flags, and the emotional damage of deciding whether you should redownload an app you JUST deleted.

Priss shares how Tinder somehow worked out in her favor and led her to her husband, while Tay gets real about what dating has felt like after major weight loss being perceived differently, wondering if someone actually likes you, dealing with fetishization, and trying to figure out the difference between confidence and protecting yourself.

And obviously… it gets unhinged.

We’re talking horrible dates, a full-blown catfish situation, a blown tire, calling mom for backup, and those moments where one tiny thing happens and suddenly you’re like, “yeah… absolutely not.”

Are dating apps actually ruining dating? Or are they just exposing how weird dating has always been?

If you’ve ever swiped, matched, ghosted, been ghosted, deleted Hinge, redownloaded Hinge three days later, or questioned someone’s listed height… this one’s for you. 😂

Tay and Priss are talking about something no one really prepares you for after weight loss: figuring out how to dress a body that feels completely different.

Losing weight can open up so many new clothing options, but that doesn’t automatically mean you know what your style is. In this episode, Tay and Priss get into the weird in-between of reaching for the sizes you used to wear, holding onto oversized clothes because they feel safe, and realizing that just because something finally fits doesn’t mean you actually like it.

Tay shares how growing up with limited clothing options still affects the way she shops today, while Priss talks about losing 80 pounds and still instinctively grabbing the biggest size on the rack. They also get into body dysmorphia, comparison, inconsistent sizing, trend pressure, and why your brain can take a lot longer to catch up to the changes happening in your body.

They talk about experimenting with Pinterest, thrifting, Depop, and secondhand shopping while your body is changing — without spending a fortune trying to build an entirely new closet overnight.

Because finding your style after weight loss isn’t really about finding the “right” size. It’s about learning to ask a completely different question:

Do I actually like this… or am I just excited that it fits?

If you’ve ever looked at your closet and thought, my body changed… now what do I wear? — this episode is for you.

What’s actually worth spending your money on… and what’s just hype? 💸

This week, Taylor and Priss are talking about the things they’ve bought that actually made a difference in their everyday lives from beauty and wellness to fitness, home, and random little things they now swear by.

We’re talking Hatch alarms, the Canon G7X, Pura diffusers, protein powders, weighted vests, lash extensions, nails, facials, matching workout sets, hair appointments and more.

Basically: the things we’ll gladly spend the extra money on because they make us feel better, look better, or just make life easier.

And of course, it wouldn’t be The Dose of It without getting a little deeper.

Later in the episode, Taylor and Priss answer a listener question about body image, relationships, attraction, and the insecurity that can come with wondering how someone really sees you.

There’s girl talk, overspending, self-care, confidence, a little chaos, and probably a few things you’ll add to your cart after listening. 😂

Tell us in the comments: what is ONE thing you refuse to cheap out on?

The pressure to apologize for changing is exhausting — so we’re done doing it.

In this episode of The Dose of It, Priss and Taylor get real about what happens when your growth starts making other people uncomfortable. From changing your body and routines to setting stronger boundaries, saying no, and outgrowing old habits, sometimes becoming a new version of yourself comes with a weird amount of guilt.

We’re talking about:

• Why weight loss and personal growth can bring guilt, comparison, and judgment

• Learning to celebrate non-scale victories

• What happens when old habits — and even relationships — stop fitting your life

• Why setting boundaries doesn’t make you selfish

• Making mistakes without turning them into shame

• Learning to trust the person you’re becoming

Priss opens up about finding confidence in a changing body and learning to see progress beyond the scale, while Taylor talks about becoming more intentional with her time, movement, boundaries, therapy, and protecting her peace.

Because growing doesn’t mean you think you’re better than anyone. Changing doesn’t mean you’ve forgotten where you came from. And you definitely don’t have to make yourself smaller just to make someone else comfortable.

If you’ve ever felt guilty for evolving, choosing yourself, or wanting more for your life, this episode is for you. 🤍

Confidence is real… but sometimes you have to fake it first. 😂

In their first chaotic Friday episode, Priss and Tay ditch the script and have the kind of conversation that feels like a FaceTime call with your best friends. They talk new piercings, lashes, emotional support squishies, their new listener prompt jar, and all the random chaos in between.

But things get real when they open up about confidence, loose skin, body image, hate comments, and what it feels like to look confident online while still working through insecurities behind the scenes.

Is “fake it till you make it” actually fake or is confidence something you practice until you finally believe it?

Priss and Tay also call their friends Shannon and Taylor to hear their takes, and the answers might make you feel a lot less alone.

If you have ever walked into a room, posted a picture, or looked in the mirror while secretly doubting yourself, this episode is for you. It is funny, vulnerable, unfiltered, and your reminder that you do not have to feel 100% confident to show up anyway.

Welcome to Friday episodes at The Dose of It. 🤍

WELCOME BACK, we’re finally back from our little summer break!

In our first episode back, Tay and Priss are talking about one of the most frustrating parts of any weight-loss journey: stalls and plateaus. We’re getting real about the burnout, comparison, frustration, and the urge to change everything when the scale refuses to move.

We also talk about the difference between a true stall and progress you may not be noticing, how to celebrate wins beyond the scale, and why slowing down does not mean you’re failing.

Grab your drink, catch up with us, and remember you’re not stuck forever.

We are so happy to be back, we missed you Dosies.

We love you guys, see you soon.

Motivation feels great… but it doesn’t last. Discipline does.

In this episode of The Dose of It, Priss and Liv get real about one of the biggest misconceptions in the GLP-1 and weight loss space: medication alone isn’t the magic solution. While GLP-1s can be powerful tools, lasting change still comes down to your habits, mindset, and daily discipline.

They talk about the “honeymoon phase” many people experience early in their journey, why weight loss plateaus are normal (and not failures), and how building routines can carry you through the days when motivation disappears. From managing food noise to staying consistent even when progress slows, this episode dives into the mental side of transformation.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, frustrated, or like you’re waiting for motivation to magically return, this conversation is your reminder: discipline is the real secret sauce.

One dose at a time. 💉✨
