Chronically Climbing Blog
Fifteen years of writing has taken me across platforms like Her Campus, HelloGiggles, Thrive Global, Beyond Type 1, Beyond Type 2, Type 1 Strong, Insulin Nation, Thought Catalog, Breakthrough T1D, and more. This blog is where it all comes together—my experiences living with type 1 diabetes, my interests as a human, and my creativity as a writer.
I’ve also run a few lifestyle blogs over the years, including Miss Trend She and Julia in Red. While those blogs are now archived in their original form, you can still find their essence here. If you’re looking for a mix of personal experiences, curiosity, and creativity, you’re in the right place.
The name Chronically Climbing reflects the grace and accountability we have to offer ourselves in the human experience. I hope you find a few nuggets of wisdom—and maybe some laughter—along the way.
