2.05: Shattering the Stigma Around Diabetes with Paloma Kemak

When I first found out about Paloma Kemak I was mesmerized and blown away by her ability to be fully honest with her audience, show how to thrive with a chronic condition, and also be raw and vulnerable in the moment when her condition is challenging. Paloma is dealing with a life-threatening autoimmune condition that millions of people in the United States have and she will be one of the speakers at Chronicon this year. She was diagnosed with Type I Diabetes as an adult and it's been her mission ever since to change the way people see diabetes. In this episode, Paloma and I discuss her life as a Type I Diabetes patient while simultaneously having a career in the fashion industry and volunteering with diabetic organizations, the cost of care, why she traveled to another country to get her insulin, what it was like being married to someone who wasn't up for the chronic illness journey, how she found the man that was right for her, our mutual love for positivity and keeping things super real and raw, and so much more!
