Oct 02, 2024


At Ideas and Insights, we empower clients to reverse prediabetes, manage Type 2 diabetes, manage Type 1 diabetes, and to cultivate longevity, vitality, and success with diabetes—particularly if you are navigating life with diabetes or have been diagnosed with prediabetes (or need weight loss and more energy). Managing stable blood sugar while striving for a healthy, vibrant life can sometimes want to balance a tightrope. But rest assured, you’re not alone on this journey!


This blog is packed with practical tips, expert advice, and inspiration to help you manage diabetes without medications and live with energy and balance. Whether you’re aiming for better blood sugar control, sustained vitality, or a roadmap to success (while keeping the stress at bay), we’re here to offer insights that guide you toward a healthier and more fulfilling life. Think of us as your guide to thriving, not just surviving, while embracing the difficulties of living with and managing diabetes.


This unique approach offers a holistic and transformative experience that combines diabetes management with self-discovery, spiritual growth, and lifestyle alignment. I help them manage blood sugar and guide clients to build vitality by managing their diabetes, understanding their unique purpose, embracing their beauty, and expressing themselves authentically in life and work. My holistic diabetes program is ideal for women ready to elevate their health while aligning with a more profound sense of meaning and purpose.
