How to stop being depressed and signs you’re dating a narcissist with Dr. Jaime Zuckerman

Dr. Jaime Zuckerman and host Anna Kai explore common misconceptions about behavior change and depression, emphasizing that taking small actions can lead to improved moods. They differentiate narcissistic personality disorder from selfishness, explaining the manipulative behavior of narcissists and how to spot early warning signs in relationships. Zuckerman discusses recognizing red flags in dating, the challenges of dealing with narcissistic family members, and the necessity of setting boundaries. They emphasize the importance of effective communication in partnerships and provide strategies for managing relationships with narcissists, highlighting the importance of self-worth and emotional healing post-breakup.

615. Is Ozempic as Magical as It Sounds?

This episode features Stephen J. Dubner in conversation with Ezekiel Emanuel about the transformative impacts of GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic, developed for type 2 diabetes and obesity. The discussion covers the drug's effectiveness for weight loss, insurers' challenges regarding coverage, and ethical implications on access.

The conversation extends to broader healthcare topics, including AI's potential in medicine and the rising incidence of certain cancers among younger populations, emphasizing the need for lifestyle changes and better healthcare equity.

GLP-1 medications, particularly Ozempic, are making significant strides in addressing both diabetes treatment and obesity management, yet they come with notable costs and potential side effects.
