Happy Diabetes awareness month everyone! We’re kicking things off by getting our hearts, minds, and souls in alignment with Michelle Saya. Michelle is an empath coach utilizing a combination of birth-chart and tarot readings to help fellow empaths find purpose in their business.  But as a fellow empath myself, I understand that it can be overwhelming when you’re starting something new like a busin...

It's the final update before we deep dive into the season. I've enjoyed catching you guys up and sharing my thoughts about what I'd like to do. This season is jam packed with all sorts of great info. But I wanted to ensure that I made it clear what my vision is moving forward and what you can expect. KEY POINTS Not a total rebrand. More like an expansion Website updates so that everything is easy...

In part 2 of updates and generally catching up, I wanted to talk about my feelings surrounding being in the health and wellness space as a woman of color. I have so much that I want to provide not only for my brand but for the diabetic community as a whole. The truth is y'all? It starts with acknowledging the lack of access to communities of color. KEY POINTS Trying to verbalize my feelings about...

Welcome back everyone! I hope you’ve enjoyed season 1. I’m back with season 2 but before we jump into everything let’s catch up. KEY POINTS  What to expect this season   Health updates: updated A1c, current plans to level up, my thoughts on working from home and my routine and adding more exercise (yaaaay she says sarcastically) Future plans for the show, community, and additional ways to connect...

Hey everyone, it’s official! Season 1 is live and we are ready to dive in with episode 1. If you’ve been following me prior to the show launch, I’m sure you’ve learned what this show is all about. Just in case if you’re brand new, I’m your host Taylor Daniele, here to share my journey living with type 2 diabetes and my goal to reverse it.  My goal is to create conversations on how we can make life...

We’re back with episode 2! I’m excited to dive in and share some insights as we learn and grow together. In this first season we’re going to start with the basics. I mean the very basics. I’ll share some key things to better understand it, stats, symptoms and my personal experience with all of it.  My goal in this episode is for you to walk away with a better understanding of what you’re dealing w...

Today we’re going to talk about preparation. So you’re about to have your doctor’s appointment. You’re nervous. You’re not sure what to expect or what to ask. What do you do? Not to worry. In this episode we go over how to prepare, things to potentially expect when you talk to your doctor, and other tools and tips to jumpstart your road to recovery.  Being prepared about what to potentially expect...

In this episode we’re talking about drugs. Not the recreational ones but the basic medication that most diabetics are given when you’re newly diagnosed. Metformin is very common amongst pre-diabetics and those diagnosed with type 2. But what is it exactly? How does it make you feel? Side effects?  We’ll talk through all of this and what my personal experience with it has been. Remember, I’m not a...

Welcome back to another episode! In this episode, I wanted to kind of piggyback on the last one where we learned about what Metformin is, how it works with your body, and some of the side effects you can expect with it. Something that I wanted to include in our learnings about Metformin is timing.  I know. It’s already one thing to have to take the medication but now you have to time it?? Sort of....

Today I wanted to go over some things that every diabetic needs or could use on a day to day basis. Although this is catered to type 2 folks, a lot of these can apply to type 1 as well!  These are items that all of us should keep on your person. Most of them are no-brainers, but it doesn't hurt to highlight them. KEY POINTS Medication  I know it’s obvious but you’d be surprised. Glucose Meter Espe...

In this episode, I want to talk about something that's for everybody. Honestly, I know that this podcast is mostly circled around type two diabetics and our community and how we can help each other.  But in this episode, I wanted to talk about a universal theme that can benefit literally anybody and that is managing your blood sugar levels. It's not just for diabetics. Everybody can benefit from i...

Let's talk numbers. In this episode I share my A1C levels from diagnosis to now. It’s definitely a roller coaster but I wanted to be transparent on where I started and where I am now. Nothing major just data. KEY POINTS From 2015 to 2020  I share my A1C percentage as well as my average glucose levels down to the very date I got my results. My most recent results? And what's the deal with the numbe...

Ok so you've heard the basics but what about perspective? For the remaining episodes you'll get just that. Listen to me interview close friends and family as well as some unscripted behind the scenes solos from me. This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: OP3 - https://op3.dev/privacy Podcorn - https://podcorn.com/privacy This is a public episode. If you would like to dis...

In this episode I sit down and chat with one of my best friends who also happens to be an amazing Vegan Influencer. Together we discuss the challenges of transitioning from one lifestyle to another. Diabetic or not, everyone has struggles with transition. From access to the right foods, to family and friends.  Learn more about Cara Instagram: @greatfullgirl TikTok: @greatfullgirl Youtube: The Grea...

Unscripted rambling from me. Ok maybe not a ramble. In this episode I share some thoughts I had about how important having a solid support system is. Off the heels of chatting with my friend Cara and our friend group one weekend, I had the realization of how appreciative I am for all of the people in my life who support me.

It’s always nerve wracking to let people into your relationship. But Eli has been an important part of my life. I wouldn’t be doing this if it wasn’t for him. Don’t get me wrong, there’s a list of folks who have helped me get here. Eli was the starting point. He’s pushed me in so many ways and if I hadn’t worked on myself through the growth that we’ve had, there’s no way in hell I would be doing t...

It’s crazy when you have those aha moments and actually lean into them. To be transparent, right before recording this I was really struggling. I felt heavy and depressed. Most of the time when I get into these states, I let everything around me fall apart. This time was different. I was gentle with myself and listened to my body. I was able to pull myself out of that state and push through.  This...

Welcome to the season finale! I felt it was only right to end the season with the person who was there from the start: my dad.  I’ve mentioned him several times throughout the season but felt it was only right to end the season with his own diabetic journey. Hopefully any guys out there listening can learn from him. It’s a perspective I can’t speak to and I want to ensure that everyone is included...
