About Mandy Jones
Welcome! I’m Mandy. A writer, facilitator, dreamer, and creator of Sage Diabetes. I’ve lived with Type 1 Diabetes for 12 years, and have worked to build patient-centered programs in the diabetes space for the last six. I’ve gotten to help diabetes non-profits, clinical centers, and startups – and 100’s of patients (with a whole lotta insurance challenges!). My formal education includes a degree in Environmental Science from UC Berkeley and a Master’s in Psychology from Meridian University.
I’ve felt how overwhelming and disconnecting our healthcare system is, and I’m here to build something different. My journey has included mindfulness, nature, and heart-centered approaches to develop an inner toolkit that helps me weather the storms of diabetes. I want to share what I’ve learned along the way, and bring more ease and community to your journey.
I’m dreaming of cultivating a community of change-makers to regenerate the future of health-care and earth-care. Won’t you join?
