  • Why these medications are disrupting industries and creating conversations.
  • Addressing the stigma of weight-loss treatments in the context of self-acceptance.
  • Balancing personal health goals with the desire to model body positivity for kids.
  • How societal pressures, parenting stress, and hormones shape our body image.
