Weight loss is one of those topics where it’s everywhere, but still so misunderstood. From calorie counting to weight loss jabs, hormone talk to TikTok "fat-burning" teas, it’s hard to know what’s real and what’s just a fad.

So how do you lose weight safely and sustainably - without falling into toxic diet culture or wasting time?

This week I’m joined by Laura Southern, a registered nutritional therapist who’s all about science-backed, non-restrictive approaches to health. She works with clients to support everything from gut health to emotional eating, and she’s answering all of our weight loss questions.

✨ In this episode, we chat about:

• The role hormones play in hunger, cravings, and fat storage
• Weight Loss Jabs vs. Lifestyle Changes: Which Actually Works?
• The healthiest, most sustainable way to lose weight (and keep it off)
• A realistic starter plan if you do want to lose weight
