On today's episode, I'm thrilled to speak with Shawn Wicks, also known as The Diabetic Fighter. Shawn is a nutrition coach with over eight years of experience helping diabetics take control of their blood sugar and improve their quality of life. He primarily works with Type-1 Diabetics and athletes, but also helps Type-2s who are ready to make serious changes.
His journey into this field is personal - he was diagnosed with T1D at the age of 29. As a former Muay Thai kickboxer, he understood the importance of fueling his body for performance, but T1D added a whole new layer of complexity. Rather than letting it hold him back, he dedicated himself to learning how to optimize blood sugar management, nutrition, and training, and now he helps others do the same.
Our conversation stretches over a wide variety, from Shawn's personal story with T1D to actionable items you can learn from to help you find your therapy baseline. You will find our conversation insightful and empowering.
