It’s Q&A time! You can ask your own question here for a chance to have it answered in an upcoming edition. The first part of my answer is available to everyone, and paid subscribers can read the whole thing. I am so excited that my husband got me a subscription to your Substack as a gift! I always talk about how you do the best research on topics I am so interested in. Can you please cover commonly recommended supplements?

Greetings, everyone! I have finally emerged from underneath my book manuscript (it is IN!) and now I’m slowly catching up on allllllll the things I neglected to do when I was scrambling to finish it. For instance, I am now coherent enough to announce the winner of my June book giveaway for paid subscribers: Lander Cooney! I’ll be sending Lander a copy of Ruth Whippman's BoyMom and Elissa Strauss's When You Care. Hooray!Another thing I have time to do again is watch TV.

Today on the podcast I’m joined by Dr. Molly Moffat - A GP who practices medicine from a weight inclusive, neurodiversity affirming lens, celebrating both diversity of bodies and of minds. In this episode, we are talking about how Molly moved away from recommending diets and weight loss to her patients, towards an anti-diet, weight-inclusive approach, focused on treating individuals with care and compassion.
