Conversation
General Chat
The main conversation space, for whatever is on your mind that day. Ask a question, share a win, or talk through something that is not going the way you hoped. If you are not sure where a post belongs, it belongs there.
Community
I co-founded Cozy Butter.
Cozy Butter is an online community for people taking a GLP-1 medication, people considering one, and people who are in between. I co-founded it with Kim Carlos, host of The Plus SideZ Podcast, because we believe patients deserve something butter. It is free to join, and most of my group work happens there now.
Why we built it.
Most of what is offered to GLP-1 patients online is either a sales page or a comment section underneath someone else’s post. Kim and I wanted somewhere the conversation itself is the point, and where the people answering a question have taken these medications themselves.
Neither of us is selling a protocol inside it. You can ask about a rough week, a side effect, a question you are tired of explaining, or nothing at all if you would rather read along for a while.
What happens there.
Live sessions
Most weeks, with the camera optional
Thrive Thursday is mine. Kim leads Mental Wellness Mondays and Kat leads Fitness Fridays, and there are other weekly sessions as well as livestreams with guests. You are welcome to join with your camera off and just listen.
Coaching
Ask a Health Coach
A space where you can bring a question to me directly. It is health coaching rather than medical care, so anything clinical belongs with your prescriber, and I will say so when that is the honest answer.
News
News & Laws
The day’s GLP-1 headlines and the legal developments, posted as they happen. Coverage, access, and the court cases that decide what patients can get.
The rooms.
The community is organized into rooms so a conversation about food is not sitting on top of a conversation about a side effect. You do not have to work out where something goes before you post, and anything that does not have an obvious home belongs in The Living Room.

Ask a Health Coach
Questions for me, answered in the community rather than in a private inbox, so other people can read the answer too.
GLP-1 Directory
A growing GLP-1 directory. Right now it lists the founders’ own podcasts, the GLP-1 Studio Podcast and The Plus SideZ, and we add to it as we find things we think you would like.
GLP-1 Tools
The same free tools that are on this site, in Cozy Butter branding and usable inside the community. You can also use them here.
Joining
It is free, and you can read before you decide.
Anyone can read the open conversations without an account. A free account lets you post and join the live sessions, and it opens the member resource library.
There is no payment step and nothing to cancel. If you want to see what the conversation is like before you sign up, that is what the open spaces are for.
Cozy Butter is operated by Cozy Butter LLC, an independent company co-founded by Kim Carlos of The Plus SideZ Podcast and Amanda Bonello of the GLP-1 Studio.
