42. The Art of Adaptation with T1D Amputee and Keynote Speaker Chris Ruden

Reclaim Your Rise: Type 1 Diabetes with Lauren Bongiorno

In this week’s episode, I’m joined by a super inspirational guest, Chris Ruden!

Chris Ruden is an amputee, Type 1 diabetic record-holding powerlifter, keynote speaker, and disabled model featured on The Rock's hit TV show "Titan Games." From hiding his disability for almost 20 years to being one of the most highly sought-after keynote speakers, Chris helps people see their world without limits.

We covered a lot in today's episode, including…

• Accepting responsibility of your outcomes
• The true meaning of embracing your difference vs. blending
• How there is no finish line when it comes to management and having control of Diabetes
• Having an appreciation for the process of T1D management instead of an addiction to the results.
