The daily routine of a person with diabetes is anything but ordinary. I'm still learning new things about it every day. Most people with diabetes go to great lengths to keep their blood sugar levels under control. Let's be real: diabetes is no joke. It can be a pain to manage daily, especially when you're juggling work and social life. But it's also something that we have to deal with and learn to live with. Spoiler alert: it's not all doom and gloom! Sure, there are some challenges to managing the condition, but I've also learned how to work around them and make the most of my situation. Diabetes is just one part of who I am. But for funsies, here's a peek into my day-to-day with diabetes.

Food Police, Shame, and Diabetes. What if we stopped shaming people for how they manage their diabetes? It seems like everyone is worried about my diabetes. But why? What's the big deal? Lots of people with diabetes feel like they're under a microscope. But why should we have to explain ourselves? There's a lot of debate around what the "right" way to manage diabetes is, but at the end of the day, it's up to each individual to find what works best for them. My guest Mila Clarke drops some knowledge on the misconceptions, guilt and shame that comes with living with diabetes, especially as an influencer. It's clear that we need to stop judging and shaming each other, and start supporting one another instead. Do you feel like everyone is always watching how you live your life with diabetes?

I'm having a lot of trouble with this question. I've been sharing what type of diabetes I have for years now, and it's been really helpful to me to see that people are willing to share their experiences. But there's still a divide because of the stigma that comes with living with type 2.

So I'm wondering, is it really necessary? Of course aside from medical staff and employers but do we need to always indicate what type of diabetes we have all the time?

Let's talk about it.

There is a stigma attached to type 2 diabetes.

A stigma of shame. A guilt and embarrassment. It can make us feel like we're broken or defective in some way. We might even start blaming ourselves for our circumstances...or worse yet think that it's our fault that other people are so unkind to us.

The truth is: there are many reasons why type 2 diabetes has become stigmatized-and fighting back isn't easy. I chat with Dex Geralds to get his take on changing the narrative about those living with type 2 diabetes.

There are a lot of misconceptions and misinformation about type 2 diabetes. And there are also a lot of outdated beliefs that we just don't question anymore. I explore possible medical bias when it comes to type 2 diabetes and how we treat people who have it.

What if you are living with a chronic illness and it's making everything else in your life difficult? How can we put ourselves first when there is so much to do, such as taking care of our families, going to school or work? In this episode, I chat with health coach and fellow podcaster Lissie Poyner who has diabetes and Crohn's. She shares her journey of balancing the demands on her time and how she learned that putting herself first was not selfish but necessary for her health. She now coaches others living with diabetes on how to do the same.
