218 - Serena Williams, GLP-1s, and the Business of Thinness
When I read the headlines that Serena Williams is taking a GLP-1 medication — and that her husband is an investor in the very company producing it — it felt like a punch in the gut. This episode isn’t about one celebrity’s choices. It’s about what this represents in the bigger picture: the ways GLP-1 drugs are being marketed, the role of celebrity endorsements, and how diet culture continues to capitalize on our pain and shame.
Together, we’ll look at what’s really being sold here, why it stings so much when even icons like Serena get pulled in, and how we can resist a system determined to shrink us.
