Sane Mazibuko’s introduction to type 1 diabetes was waking up in hospital after collapsing as a 6-year-old. But as she tells us in this heartfelt episode, being told what to do to manage a health condition is not the same as being told why or how.
Growing up in Durban, South Africa, Sane had moved across the country as an adult before she spoke to her first endocrinologist, and after years of confusing and isolating experiences, she eventually found the support team that allowed her to be honest about her condition.
29 years into life with type 1 diabetes, Sane now uses the information and experience she’s gathered to help others in South Africa and beyond to better understand the life it’s possible to live with the condition, from eating the same foods as everyone else to workplace support, to coming back from burnout. As she says on her social media, Sane’s decision to ‘choose softness daily’, is helping her move through the challenges that type 1 diabetes endlessly presents.
Sane also talks poignantly about educating her young daughter about her mum’s diabetes, including being able to understand Sane’s CGM readings <3
