#364: The Hidden TRUTH About Weight Loss: Nervous System Hacks, GLP-1, and the Psychology Behind Stubborn Fat | Eliza Kingsford

Today, I'm joined by Eliza Kingsford, a clinical psychologist and expert in the psychology of weight loss, who brings a refreshingly honest—and much needed—perspective to the conversation around GLP-1 peptides, weight regulation, and nervous system health. Eliza shares how her two decades of experience revealed a missing piece in lasting weight loss: understanding and addressing the role of our nervous system beneath the surface of every behavior, craving, and "failed" attempt.
