In this episode of the Inspired Wellness Podcast, Michelle White and Tabitha Kane sit down with Sarah Kennedy, founder and CEO of Calocurb, a science-backed, natural appetite management supplement developed from over 15 years of research.
They dive deep into the science of GLP-1 hormones, how appetite regulation really works, and the key differences between synthetic weight loss drugs (like Ozempic) and natural alternatives. Sarah shares how Calocurb leverages the body’s own biology to reduce cravings, quiet “food noise,” and support sustainable weight management—without harsh side effects.
If you’re curious about weight loss, hormone health, appetite control, or natural alternatives to GLP-1 medications, this episode is packed with insights.
