How Asking for Help Changed Her Life

from Thrive Like A Parent · host Dr. Brooke Weinstein

EP:149 In this powerful episode of Thrive Like a Parent Podcast, I sit down with my incredible friend Lauren Buongiorno, founder of Risely Health and a type one diabetes warrior. Lauren shares her transformative journey from struggling with diabetes to becoming a beacon of hope and empowerment for thousands living with this condition. We dive deep into her personal story - from being diagnosed at seven to navigating collegiate sports, motherhood, and building a revolutionary health coaching company. Lauren breaks down the misconception that diabetes is just about math and insulin, revealing it's a holistic experience involving 42 different factors that impact blood sugar. Key takeaways include understanding how technology can be a tool but not a complete solution, the importance of asking for help, and learning to work WITH your body instead of constantly fighting against it.
