What gets overlooked when we talk about weight, health, and body image?

In this episode, we explore the emotional, social, and medical realities of living in a larger body—beyond the scale or appearance.

My guest is Dr. Megan Tierney, a family physician, obesity medicine specialist, and founder of Sol Health and Wellness in Seattle. She supports women navigating perimenopause, menopause, and metabolic health changes with care that blends medical management, mindfulness, and self-compassion.

We cover:

  • Living in a Larger Body: What Often Gets Missed – The everyday challenges, hidden stress, and societal pressures people in larger bodies face.
  • Choosing What Feels Right for Your Body – How to make intentional health choices while respecting your body and autonomy.
  • Making Space for Bodies to Change – Why body positivity isn’t about staying the same and how to honor body evolution.
  • Why Weight Is Not Just Willpower: The Role of Trauma in Health – How trauma, stress, and environment shape our relationship with weight.
  • Living Better, Not Just Lighter – Focusing on overall well-being, mental health, and thriving beyond the numbers on a scale.

This episode offers practical insights, compassionate guidance, and strategies to navigate health, body image, and self-care in today’s complex world. Whether you’re exploring your own journey or looking to better understand these challenges, this conversation is full of clarity, support, and actionable takeaways.
