Hey, I’m Hannah! I’m a doctor living with type 1 diabetes, and today, I’m sharing my journey with perfectionism—not just in diabetes management but in life. For years, I believed that keeping my blood sugar at non-diabetic levels was the key to long-term health. But I’ve learned that perfectionism actually made diabetes harder, increased my stress, and didn’t necessarily lead to better outcomes.

In this video, I’ll discuss:
✅ Why perfectionism in T1D management is harmful
✅ How stress impacts long-term health and blood sugar control
✅ The 95/5 rule I use to balance good management and flexibility
✅ Why self-compassion is key to living a healthy, happy life with type 1 diabetes

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed trying to maintain perfect blood sugar numbers, know that you’re not alone. Let’s talk about how to shift your mindset, reduce stress, and embrace a more balanced approach to diabetes care.
