Juliet Short is an Auckland based lawyer ,and mother of two girls. 

Her eldest daughter was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of three, which is very young. Most children are diagnosed between ages seven and eleven.

In conversation with Lisa Mulligan, Juliet discussed:

• Her daughter's experience with type 1 diabetes
• The challenges of managing insulin and blood sugars in such a young child
• The importance of technology and education in making it easier to manage type 1 diabetes, and
• The need for inclusivity and understanding from others in caring for those with invisible disabilities. 

Juliet talked about some books by Associate Justice of the US Supreme Court Sonia Sotomayor. You can find more information about Sonia and her books here.
