A coming home to the parts of you that existed long before the rules did.

In lieu of the GLP-1 conversations that can be loud and overwhelming - especially for our clients in recovery, I co-wrote a short reflection and grounding exercise as a gentle tool to help pause, come back into the body, and reconnect with personal values beneath the noise.

Sharing this as a resource for both individuals navigating these decisions and clinicians supporting clients through them. Thanks for Georgia McArtney at McArtney Nutrition for doing this with me!
