Have you ever had the thought 'I don't deserve good things'? This pervasive belief can be subtle, but it's not harmless. Today we are going to explore what's really going on with this belief.

When we peel back the layers, we can see that the belief of "deservingness" is rooted in conditional worth messaging, internalized shame, and fear- which can all impact our food choices and self-care. It's time to challenge these beliefs and embrace the idea that you are inherently worthy of good things, without needing to earn them.

You will learn more about how these patterns manifest in everyday life and receive guidance on transforming these thoughts to promote healing and self-compassion. We can't wait for you to listen!

Olivia emailed us sharing her personal journey with Semaglutide, a GLP one receptor agonist, and how it helped her manage binge eating disorder. Olivia's experience was so compelling and we believe it sheds light on the silence around GLP one drugs and their potential benefits beyond weight loss.

She also delves into the future of research and the pharmaceutical industry in this space.
