The Daily Whatever, July 28: Hit Me with That GLP-1 Shot
A recording from Lawrence Winnerman's live video
This morning on The Daily Whatever, Dana DuBois started by celebrating with the whole Chat: Lawrence, Dana, and Füsun Aydın got checkmarks, Nick Paro and The Bathrobe Guy 👘 placed on the charts, and more wins across our community.
We love to see it! A rising tide lifts all boats, we like to say. Congrats to everyone, and thanks for your support and reader/viewership. It means the world to us!
Dana wrote a powerful piece of memoir focusing on her family of origin programming around body and diet, and how taking a semaglutide GLP-1 shot has helped her confront and heal some of that baggage.
We had a great conversation about it, and as always, the chat was smart, funny, vulnerable, and wacky. We love you guys!
