Ozempic and Wegovy: Are You Losing Weight or Losing Your Health?
Season #9 May 8, 2026
Welcome to episode 72 of The Woman Warrior Podcast! Join your hosts Dr. Satyavani and Prajna Madhavi as they continue their journey through the Yamas and Niyamas, diving deeper into Brahmacharya — the practice of mastering the senses, building awareness, and choosing balance over overindulgence. In this episode, Dr. Satyavani and Prajna bring a bold, honest, and deeply needed conversation around the rise of synthetic GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Wegovy, especially when used as quick-fix weight loss solutions. Through the lens of Ayurveda, yoga, metabolism, gut health, emotional control, physical discipline, and spiritual wellness, they explore what happens when society chases being “skinny” instead of becoming truly healthy, strong, capable, and whole.
