In this episode, I’m joined by Sabina Hemmi, founder of GLP Winner, to break down the growing wave of federal and state legislation targeting compounded GLP-1 medications.

We discuss:

Why transparent GLP-1 pricing matters

How GLP Winner helps patients compare clinics without deceptive funnels

The federal Safe Drugs Act and emerging state bills

How some legislation could impact all compounding, not just GLP-1s

What this means for hospice care, pediatrics, veterinary medicine, and more

Why patient advocacy at the state level matters right now

The real-life side effects and lived experience behind the policy debate

If you live in a state where legislation is moving, contact your representative and share your story. Patient voices are making a difference.

In this episode of the GLP-1 Studio Podcast, host Amanda Bonello sits down with Aja Beckett, founder of Shotsy, to talk about GLP-1 self-advocacy, personalized dosing, and the moment everything changes when food noise finally goes quiet.

Aja shares her personal GLP-1 journey, including navigating insurance barriers, prior authorizations, and paying hundreds of dollars a month just to access care. Together, Amanda and Aja unpack why obesity is a chronic disease, not a willpower problem, and why “eat less, move more” has failed so many people.

They also explore how tracking symptoms, side effects, and dosing patterns can empower patients to have better conversations with their doctors, especially when standard titration schedules don’t fit real bodies or real lives.

This conversation is about more than an app. It’s about dignity, access, and finally understanding that it’s not your fault.
