This isn’t medical advice — always talk to your doctor before making any health decisions.

We sit down with Michael Donnelly-Boylen, a leading advocate in the GLP-1 community known as Mike on a Mission, and his husband, a psychiatrist who became certified in obesity medicine. We explore how GLP-1 treatment influenced their relationship, how they grew together, and how advocacy shaped their shared journey, highlighting the ripple effect of health, understanding, and purpose.
