In this episode of But Are You Happy, clinical psychologist Dr. Anastasia Hronis unpacks what these weight loss injections actually are, how we can start to reframe the idea of the “ideal body,” and the signs that this shift might be taking a toll on your mental—and physical—health.

You'll also learn:
What these weight loss injections actually are 
The signs of disordered eating & the different types of eating disorders
How to start building a healthier relationship with your body
How to navigate the negative body conversations you see on social media
