#167: How To Navigate Your Life Being Turn Upside Down (Diagnosed Just 7 Months Ago), with Kimberly Bozick (Part 1)

In this week’s episode Eoin chats with Kimberly Bozick (@kimberlybozick).


Kim is from the USA, is a Marketing Director at an advertising agency, and has been living with Type 1 Diabetes for just 7 months (diagnosed at the age of 35).


Throughout this episode Kim and Eoin speak about:


  • The difference between the mental and the physical changes with T1D.
  • How to adjust your lifestyle to a diagnosis ‘later’ in life.
  • Why Kim’s previous trauma with her brother’s T1D helped her stay on top of her own management.
  • What her fears for the future were.
  • What has she learned about herself since being diagnosed?
  • And much, much more!
