On today’s podcast, we go beyond the headlines to explore what’s driving the latest wave of GLP-1 momentum, why this represents a lasting shift rather than just another healthcare trend, the biggest misconception retailers still have about how these drugs are changing consumer behavior, and which parts of the retail playbook need to be rewritten as consumers change how they eat, shop, and live.

Tune in for a discussion featuring Vice President of Content and host Suzy Davidkhanian, along with Senior Analysts Rajiv Leventhal and Rachel Wolff.
