Podcast: Celebrate Kids Podcast with Dr. KathyPublished On: Wed Sep 24 2025
Description: In this episode of the Celebrate Kids podcast, Dr. Kathy dives into the topic of GLP-1 medications, which have recently gained attention for their use in managing obesity and type 2 diabetes in children and adolescents. She discusses how these injectable drugs, like Wegovy and Victoza, enhance feelings of fullness and reduce appetite to mimick self-control. Dr. Kathy uses this topic to engage how we can teach character, self-control, and have a posture of support for our kids as they face things like obesity and a culture that pushes them to quick-fixes for big problems.
