"Trusting myself again feels great!"
Until recently, even the thought of eating foods I enjoy and trying staying in range was terrifying to me so I never tried. But now with diabetes mindset tools I've learned, I feel so much more confident. Even my husband noticed yesterday when we went on a bit of a hike to the beach… no panic just strategy and trust. It feels so good to trust myself again!

"Diabetes is tough but I got this!"
Dr. Mark has helped me manage the accumulated daily stress and put in the effort to implement my health care teams’ suggestions. Now I’m eating a wide variety of foods. I’m more relaxed about the lows and highs, and I’ve developed strategies that feel sustainable. It feels so good to say, Diabetes is tough but I got this!

"I can act even when I am scared."
It took me 6 years to accept T1D. I did everything to avoid it. Getting honest with myself was tough. Even now 13 years on I still find myself in shock at times. But things have changed. Now I’m learning to be kinder to myself, to get adept at failure, that the way I talk to myself about diabetes matters. I know I can act even when I am scared.
