I said I’m LEARNING, ok?! I’m not a pro, never gonna go pro, but I can rest easy knowing I can throw a few punches and go down swinging if it comes down to it.

This is obviously a nuanced conversation but if you have the privilege of food security and you’re wondering what you can do to help your community during a time where tyranny is taking over, consider investing in your own strength and health so you can protect the ones around you who don’t have those privileges.

I gotta do better about covering my face, but not bad for my first round, if I do say so myself 🤓

I’m tired, grandpa

Building a values based business means accepting the consequences of upholding your values. All. The. Time.

Yeah…. No.

We won’t be taking that kind of advice in 2026 because we know there is no “cure” for diabetes. Type 2 diabetes is chronic and progressive. Can you manage it? Yes. Can you lower your A1c into non-diabetes ranges? Yes! Type 2 diabetes can even go into remission, but that does not mean it’s cured, it’s extremely difficult to achieve, and requires constant monitoring because the underlying risk is already there.

With type 1 diabetes, short of an islet cell transplant which is extremely difficult to access and a very new procedure in the field with much unknown (including how long it lasts), there is no cure.

So please don’t fall for the grifting for another year! Work with a diabetes educator! Most insurances cover a dietitian for at least a few visits, even if you don’t have diabetes. There’s no reason you should be spending a bunch of money buying the latest snake oil.

What’s the wildest thing you’ve heard lately?

You know i love to learn my lil lessons from life, so here’s a quick recap of the top ones I learned. Working for yourself is hard; adulting is hard. Choosing things that are in alignment with how you want to live your life and where you envision it going is definitely the hardest, though. But that’s what my soul contract is in this life and I’ll be damned if I don’t honor it!

A lot of these lessons I’ve learned working as a dietitian and diabetes educator. I’ve learned them from my clients and I’ve imparted them on my clients. Some of these are lessons from owning a business. A few are just life lessons. They’re all applicable across the board, though. I’m sure you’ll find one that resonates with you.

What are some lessons 2025 taught you?
