The Black Woman GLP-1 Experience ™️
Welcome to The Black Woman GLP-1 Experience!
I'm Dr. Vanessa Talley, a psychotherapist. This being said, I am not your psychotherapist. Please consult with your personal mental health and medical providers for professional advice.
This is a channel dedicated to real conversations about GLP-1 medications, mental health, perimenopause, and menopause through the lens of Black women’s lives. Here, we share truths, bust myths, and explore the unique ways medicine, mindset, and culture shape our life's journey.
It’s time to break the silence, embrace healing, push back on stigmas, and center the voices of Black women in conversations that too often leave us out while redefining what thriving looks like for us. There's a critical need for more data and research focused on Black women’s health. Without culturally informed studies and accurate representation in medical research, treatment gaps and health disparities will continue. Let's change this!
