WHAT IS DIABETES BOSS?
Hello, I'm so glad you're here and I'm going to get straight to the point! The Diabetes Boss programme is all about putting you in the director's seat of your life with diabetes. Living with type 1 diabetes can be a rollercoaster, but it's time to rewrite that story and take control like never before.
​
I get it - the daily challenges, the erratic glucose levels, the burnout, the food restrictions, the fears. It's tough, especially when you feel like you're navigating this journey alone. But guess what? You're not alone anymore. This programme isn't just a guide; it's your support system, your coach, your ticket to thriving with diabetes.
​
Whether you're newly diagnosed or a seasoned pro, Diabetes Boss is here to help you tackle those emotional hurdles head-on. From making confident food choices to integrating exercise for better control, from building a supportive community to advocating for yourself with healthcare professionals - I've got you covered.
​
Designed with you in mind, this programme is all about empowerment. It's about feeling confident, beautiful, and unstoppable, both inside and out. Say goodbye to shame, burnout, guilt, and restriction. Say hello to a growth mindset, to living with diabetes instead of just managing it.
​
Because let's face it, not every day will be perfect, but that's okay. Diabetes Boss is here to lift you up, to help you shine, and to show you that diabetes doesn't define you - you define it.
So let's embrace flexibility, let's embrace freedom, let's embrace living like true diabetes bosses. 👑💙🌟

THE MORE DETAILED PART:
​
Get ready to boss up and take charge of your diabetes journey with this interactive online programme! You'll have clear starting and ending points - 30 days to complete, but the freedom to call the shots in between. To keep the momentum going and ensure consistent progress, I reccomend to complete the steps daily.
​
Each lesson is like a treasure chest, filled with worksheets, exercises, and surveys to supercharge your learning. The more you dive in, the more you'll uncover. I've broken it down into four powerful modules: Breaking Down Barriers, Mindfulness and Emotional Wellbeing, Food - Exercise Balance and Carbohydrate Awareness, and Empowerment for Sustainable Self-Management. Each module will support maintaining glucose control, with you in the driver's seat.
​
Inside each module, you'll find seven action-packed lessons, ready to guide you on your journey to diabetes domination. With a total of 20 lessons across all modules, each taking approximately 10 minutes, remember: the more effort you invest, the greater the rewards.
Need extra support? I'm here for you every step of the way, whether it's through email, private group chats, or check-ins. And you will also get a chance to schedule your personal one-to-one 30 minute coaching session with me where we'll tackle diabetes challenges together!

TESTIMONIALS
The online format of the Diabetes Boss program was a perfect fit for me, allowing me to participate from home without the need for transportation. The steps were just right - not too time-consuming, yet packed with valuable content. Throughout the program, I've learned to trust myself more in making diabetes-related decisions, prioritized self-care for happiness, and embraced gratitude even more. Celebrating weekly 'wins' and being mindful of my thoughts have empowered me to take charge of my diabetes journey. The program's message about finding beauty and strength within ourselves resonated deeply with me. Thanks to Diabetes Boss, I've become more mindful and aware in managing my diabetes, and I'm incredibly grateful for the positive impact it's had on my life.

Erin is a coach who is friendly, knowledgeable, empathetic, and helpful. This space allowed me to recharge from my diabetes, connecting with others in the group who understand the daily challenges. The nutrition advice on counting carbs was useful, encouraging me to take more control over my diet. The programme raised awareness of areas for improvement, like exercise and meal planning, with new recipes offered.
