Welcome back to another solo episode. I'm your host, Melissa Slemp, and today, we're delving into a topic close to my heart - how to thrive with type one diabetes after 40. It's going to be an empowering journey, so let's dive in.
This is episode 12, and in today's show, we'll explore the challenges and triumphs of living with type one diabetes. We'll cover everything from the beginning of my journey with diabetes to managing fear, embracing daily habits, and living a fulfilling life with this chronic condition.
Let's start from the beginning of my journey with diabetes. Feeling alone, isolated, and clueless about this condition, I'll share how I found my way and finally understood what diabetes meant for my life.
Living with a chronic disease like diabetes can be scary, especially when facing complications like diabetes retinopathy. I'll share my personal experiences and how I coped with the fear that sometimes-crept in.
I'll discuss the importance of building trust in yourself, your healthcare team, and accepting the reality of living with type one diabetes when you incorporate the ABC’s that I share in this episode.
Habits are the foundation for managing type one diabetes effectively. Learn about the snowball effect and how small changes can lead to significant improvements in your overall health.
