Once 650 pounds, Jamie has completely transformed his life and now uses his experience to inspire others and advocate for access, so everyone who needs a second chance has one.

He walks over 12,000 steps a day, lifts weights four days a week, and shows up, out loud, for a future where GLP-1 medications are within reach for everyone who needs them.

But he’s not just talking about change, he’s leading it. Jamie serves as the Executive Director of the North Dakota Democratic Party and was elected to the Democratic National Committee, where he represents his state.

If you’ve been feeling stuck or overwhelmed, this episode will remind you what’s possible and why your story’s not over yet.

Amanda’s journey is not just difficult—it’s agonizing. In this episode, she shares how the system has failed her again and again, leaving her in a constant battle just to get the medication her health depends on.

What began with hope has turned into a nightmare of blocked access, mounting fear, and a sense of being forgotten. Her story is a raw, unfiltered look at what it feels like to be trapped in a healthcare maze with no clear way out.

It’s a powerful reminder that behind every policy debate are real people fighting—every single day—for a chance to simply feel well.
