Our coach manager, Abby, is back to lead an honest conversation with coach Jehan about what it looks like to actually prioritize your own health, wellbeing, and identity as a mom while balancing both diabetes and motherhood. With Abby’s perspective as a mother to a child living with T1D, and Jehan’s perspective as a mom living with T1D herself, they bring so much relatable experience to this topic. Spoiler alert: true self care is so much deeper than bubble baths. This is about practical strategies for avoiding burnout. Whether or not you are a parent, this conversation is what you need to hear if you are struggling to make yourself AND your health a priority.
Quick Takeaways:
- The challenges of balancing type 1 diabetes and parenthood (whether it’s you or your child that has T1D)
- The emotional toll of diabetes on parents & letting go of the guilt
- How to prioritize self-care in the midst of parents
- The impact of a mother’s wellbeing on the rest of the household
