Welcome to today's episode where I chat with Colleen Mitchell, a powerhouse in the Type 1 Diabetes community for 28 years. Colleen, host of the insightful "This is Type One" podcast, takes us on her journey from a T1D diagnosis at age 2 to becoming an advocate, life coach, and successful entrepreneur.

 

In this episode, Colleen delves into her T1D experiences, shining a light on the critical theme of self-sabotage within the diabetes community. We explore the impact of self-sabotage on diabetes management, its connection to personal growth, and how it intertwines with mindset and lifestyle changes.

 

Listen in as Colleen and I reflect on the challenges and triumphs of managing diabetes, emphasizing community support, routine, and the power of self-forgiveness. Colleen's wealth of experience shines through, offering valuable insights and practical tips for those on a similar journey.
