Why Your Weight Loss Drug Needs Doctor Supervision, Not Just an Online Prescription



Graphic that says 4 big health breakthroughs
Natalie Tysdal




If you’re curious about the new wave of weight loss medications, this episode is for you.


This week's conversation is essential listening for anyone experiencing the challenges of weight management—especially women over 40 navigating hormones, menopause, and new options in medical care.


Natalie sits down with Dr. Megan Garcia-Webb, a board-certified primary care physician, obesity medicine and lifestyle medicine specialist, and life coach, to break down everything you need to know about modern weight loss, GLP-1 medications (like Ozempic, Wegovy, and more), and the impact on your hormones, health, and daily life.


Dr. Megan shares critical insights on:



  • The science behind GLP-1s and what makes these new medications so groundbreaking



  • Who should (and shouldn't) consider these drugs—and how to find a qualified provider



  • What you must know about side effects, nutrition, and why it’s crucial to be monitored



  • The importance of supporting lifestyle changes and building self-compassion for lasting health



  • Why managing your mindset and working with the right professional makes all the difference


If you're worried about side effects, have questions about microdosing, or wonder what happens if you stop medication—all your concerns are addressed in this honest, thorough, and practical conversation. Dr. Megan also discusses the future potential of these medications beyond weight loss, from inflammation to treating addictive behaviors.


“The goal isn’t just losing weight—it’s building strength, quality of life, and confidence.” – Dr. Megan Garcia-Webb
