If GLP-1 medications have quieted your food noise but left you wondering how to handle the emotions underneath it, this episode is for you. Ana talks with Jessica Brown about why weight loss alone does not automatically heal your relationship with food, how self-compassion can help you move out of shame and self-sabotage, and what it looks like to work on identity, coping patterns, and emotional resilience while using GLP-1 medications. This conversation connects the physical effects of medication with the inner work that helps change actually last.
