Hair loss, GLP-1s and letting go of body shame – with Sarah Vine

Journalist and author Sarah Vine joins Liz for a candid conversation about the realities of midlife, from hair loss and body confidence to our evolving relationship with our appearance – and why self-acceptance can be a gift in our second half.

They discuss the emotional impact of hair thinning, the pressures women face to look a certain way and how attitudes towards GLP-1 medications are beginning to shift.
