Your Health ≠ Your Weight

Susan Baumgaertel · March 14, 2026

A candid look at mindful wellness, GLP-1, and patient-centered care

The goal isn’t to be lighter, it’s to live better.

The perfect quote from a recent interview on Voices With Vigor with Dr. Meghan Tierney, who shares her powerful story…

From theater stages to exam rooms, Meghan’s journey reveals how empathy shapes healing. As a board-certified family and obesity medicine physician, she’s pioneering weight-neutral care that honors both medical science and human dignity.

We explored her personal 95-pound weight loss process, her approach to perimenopause and metabolic health, and how Sorrel Health & Wellness is redefining patient-centered care.

Our unscripted conversation wove together many compelling topics:

💎 Walking in nature to connect with others

💎 Theatre ensemble as story-telling venue

💎 NYC 9/11 career pivot

💎 Finding her super skill: empowering people through their stories

💎 Navigating a world that wasn’t designed for her

💎 GLP-1 medication assisting intentional weight loss

💎 The nuances of weight loss: risks versus benefits

💎 Controlling hunger and food noise

💎 Direct Primary Care business model

💎 The polarization of peri/menopause

Find out why Meghan states,

Every patient visit is like an improv scene!
