Finding Balance, Confidence & a New Career with GLP-1s: Bryana’s Story
Send us a textIn this episode of the GLP-1 Hub podcast, I interview GLP-1 user Bryana Niemczynski. Starting a GLP-1 changed everything for her. She's lost over 40 pounds so far, but more than that, she stopped drinking five nights a week, stopped thinking about food constantly, and finally started caring about myself again. That shift gave her the space to pursue my dream of working for herself. She taught herself how to do UGC, quit her 9–5 serving job, and now she creates content for brands full-time. It’s been life-changing.Follow Bryana: https://www.instagram.com/bry_niemczynskiTry the MeAgain App: https://meagain.app/Thank you to our sponsors:Visit Gruns.co and use the code GLP1HUBPOD to get up to 52% off your orderVisit our GLP-1 Hub store: https://www.glp-1hub.com Get our FREE 7-day meal plans for GLP-1: 7-Day Meal Plan Plant-based 7-Day Meal Plan Want to connect more with GLP-1 Hub?
