So here’s my ask, and it’s a little bigger than simply casting a vote (just when you thought you were done with being pestered for your vote).
If you believe obesity is a disease, and you believe I’m the guy to help get that message out to the world, help us tell that story on a MASSIVE platform.
First, please cast your FREE VOTE HERE:
You can vote for free once every 24 hours. There is also an option to donate to the Ryan Seacrest Foundation for additional votes, but nobody should feel obligated to spend money.
IF WE WIN:
iHeart Radio will produce a 6 episode podcast around obesity and obesity medicine.
We will be featured on the Ryan Seacrest radio show.
And receive $25,000 towards our new studio!
Then, and this is incredibly important, help me get this in front of as many people as humanly possible.
Share this article on Facebook. Send it to your friends. Post it in your group chats. Share it with the people who have watched someone they love struggle with obesity, and with people who believe patients deserve treatment instead of judgment.
And please, take a moment to leave a comment below. Tell me why you believe this message deserves a national audience, or share what changing the conversation around obesity has meant to you.
If you see my video about this on TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, or YouTube, please interact with it. Leave a comment, share it, and help us reach people who aren’t already part of this community.
We have spent four years building something special together. Now we have an opportunity to take that message to millions of people who may desperately need to hear it.
Only first place advances automatically, and voting closes tonight at 9 PM Central.
If there were ever a time for this community to show up, it’s right now.
VOTE FOR FREE AND HELP US TELL THIS STORY
Thank you for believing in what we’re building.

OUR MESSAGE NEEDS YOU MORE THAN EVER, PLEASE SHARE THIS POST ON THE SOCIALS!
