One in Eight Americans Is on a GLP-1 — Here's What Dr. Rocio Salas-Whalen Wants You to Know Mar 30, 2026

Show notes

One in eight Americans is on a GLP-1 right now — and most of them are flying blind. That's why I sat down with return guest Dr. Rocio Salas-Whalen, a board-certified obesity specialist and the bestselling author of Weightless, for a conversation that your doctor should be having with you but probably isn't. We get into everything: who's actually a good candidate, how to keep your muscle while you lose weight, and why struggling with your weight was never, ever a willpower thing. She breaks down all the brands, spills on whether "microdosing" GLP-1s works or is a TikTok trend and tells you which foods to avoid while you're on the medication. You're going to walk away knowing what questions to ask, how to handle the side effects, and why muscle mass is the metric you should be watching way more than the scale. Don't sleep on this one, beauties.

Midlife women are triple-booked—careers, caregiving, hormonal changes—and our sex lives are paying the price. When sex drops off your radar, you're missing out on more than pleasure—sexual health matters for your overall wellbeing, says Dr. Maria Sophocles, OB-GYN and author of “The Bedroom Gap.” With 30 years of treating tens of thousands of patients, Dr. Sophocles reveals why midlife women are experiencing sexual burnout at alarming rates and what we can do about it. Inspired by Gloria Steinem's urgent call—"write it like your house is on fire"—her new book shares practical solutions for reigniting desire, preventing painful sex, and offers tools like mindfulness, lubes, erotica, and new sex tech to reclaim pleasure. Your midlife bedroom gap ends here, beauties!
