Why Are More Women Getting Diabetes?! (w/ Wendy + Jess)

Prediabetes..diabetes..gestational diabetes!!! IT'S COMPLICATED. Also, why does it seem like more women are getting diagnosed? There's a lot to unpack here and I'm not doing it alone so I called up my smart & fabulous friends, Wendy & Jess who are dietitians and diabetes educators to break it down and share their top tips on how you can lower your risk or better manage it. We also debunk myths, address weight stigma & hormone health. The great thing is, if you are already diagnosed you don't have to put up with it alone they've created a big digital community to help you flourish in the best way possible.
