Ep. 15 Can GLP-1s Really Fix How You Feel About Your Body?

from Unlearning Beautiful · host Kristina Bruce

Can a drug actually fix how you feel about your body?In this episode, Kristina Bruce dives deep into the rise of GLP-1 drugs (like Ozempic and Wegovy) to explore the question: If these drugs change your body, do they actually change how you feel about yourself? While originally designed for blood sugar regulation, these medications are increasingly marketed for weight loss, yet they often manage symptoms without addressing the root causes of health issues, "food noise," or body dissatisfaction.Join us as we discuss:The Health Piece: Why pharmaceutical shortcuts may bypass essential lifestyle and emotional factors.Silencing "Food Noise": Understanding how a "mute button" for hunger doesn't heal a disordered relationship with food.The Psychology of Weight: Why "feeling heavy" is often an emotional state rather than a physical one.Unlearning Fatphobia: How cultural conditioning impacts our sense of safety and belonging.If you’re tired of the "hamster wheel" of weight management and are looking for a weight-neutral approach to health and self-worth, this episode offers a roadmap to finding peace in the body you have right now - without needing to reach for a drug.✨ RESOURCES & SUPPORT🕊️ 1:1 BODY PEACE COACHINGIn-depth personalized support to make a real shift in feeling more at peace in your body👉https://www.kristinabruce.com/private-coaching💗 SMALL GROUP COACHINGYou don't have to do this work alone.
