Episode Description from the Publisher

We’re revisiting one of our most personal labs. In this episode, we sit down with Ronald Young Jr., host of Wait For It, to unpack the complicated relationship many of us have with our bodies — and the ways we postpone our lives while we’re “waiting.” Waiting to lose weight.Waiting to look different.Waiting to feel worthy. We talk about how weight gets moralized, and how identity layers influence body image in ways we don’t always name. And most importantly: what it means to stop waiting. If you’ve ever thought, “I’ll start living when…,” this one’s for you. Dope Labs is where science meets pop culture. Because science is in everything and it’s for everybody.
