Jessica Brennan, started in the fitness industry 10 years ago as a fitness instructor and personal trainer, realized early on that achieving health goals went beyond physical activity. This realization led Jessica to pursue certifications in nutrition, hormone specialist, and gut health specialist, aiming to address health challenges holistically.

Working closely with Karen at Hormone Solutions, Jessica is dedicated to sharing her expertise with women globally. Her areas of expertise include bodybuilding, women’s hormone health, personalized nutrition, peptide therapy, and chronic illness management.

Jessica is with me this time to discuss our one-year anniversary of being on weight loss peptides. We also created our weight loss peptide group about a year ago which, in addition to our own experiences, has provided us many different points of view on the ups and downs that members face. We’ll share personal stories and lessons learned from our community of over 200 members, discussing the use of GLP-1 peptides, strategies for minimizing side effects, and the importance of muscle preservation. We also get into how peptides can improve sleep, athletic performance, and hormonal balance.
